“Fantastic experience! I am on the road a lot for work and this place made me feel like I was at home having a Sunday night meal. The bartenders have great comedic timing and it is one of my favorite spots in NJ. ❤️”
“Had our reunion dinner there last night. The food was outstanding and our waitress was tremendous. She did a fantastic job.”
“Food was very good. I got the meatloaf and rice, greens and cabbage and the macaroni. Everything was seasoned just right. I paid $25 with a can of soda. Service was fast. I went on a Sunday afternoon.”
“Nice looking bar and restaurant with expansive menu of Polish specialties and more. The Barszcz Czerwony (beet soup with mushroom dumplings) featured a broth with complex flavor and perfectly tender dumplings. Bottled Polish beer at a reasonable price and an adequate espresso to follow. Do yourself a favor and visit.”

“Peter's Place is like a Trenton Cheers. Bartenders are amazing, drinks reasonably priced, patrons are welcoming and friendly. Come on down and have a drink. First one will be on "The Sport" Mikey (the owner).”
“My family and I love everything about this place! Food, drinks, decor and waitstaff are all excellent.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“I give classic Subs 4 stars only because I think they could be a little more sanitary when it comes to making sandwiches. For instance, when there making sandwiches, they go from making one sandwiche right to the next without changing their gloves. Also not putting paper down before making your sandwich. Other than that the sandwiches are delicious, and I will definitely go back.”
“The food is amazing! Great season and portion. I had to take half home. Loved the fruit drinks as well. And the service was so nice!
Excellent service! The food is very delicious. They have a very good seasoning, and the portions are perfect, you will not leave hungry. The fruit juices are also very delicious!”
“This convenience store is very small. Hard to social distance. The guys who work there are very nice. This store has been in the neighborhood for about 50 years.”
“First time I was ever there had a great time other customers were friendly and talkative I had two bartenders I came in at 6:00 I had Olivia and then Tracy came on later I didn't leave till 1:30 in the morning I tip $50 because the service was very good”

“Dinner June of 2025, Excellent all around!! The Service!!! The food was perfect!!! Better than the service I had received at Morton's in AC. The booths could be spot cleaned and a couple of older tables replaced, but the people there were exceptional and attentive and on point.”
“The service is great and they are so nice and welcoming! The crab is the best in the area! We’ve spent a lot of money here and we look forward to spending a lot more here in the years to come!”
“It's now called Rosa's, same location!! I've only had the pizza a handful of time and I got to say it's very very good!! Definitely going to try the macaroni and cheese in next time ?”

“Having moved from Maine to Pennsylvania almost 25 years ago, we yearned for the fresh-caught seafood we had grown accustomed to…. Until Cousins Maine Lobster rolled into town! I am excited when they are in my area, and make it a point to treat myself whenever I can. The rolls are fresh, not frozen, and so delicious. Don’t forget a cup of chowder and a whoopie pie!”
“Stepping into this Burger King, you’re immediately greeted by a welcoming interior that promises a comfortable dining experience. The cleanliness of the restrooms is a testament to the staff’s attention to detail, ensuring every aspect of the customer experience is pleasant. The food, as always, is delicious and satisfying, living up to the brand’s reputation. What truly sets this location apart, however, is the exceptional service, particularly from the manager, whose helpfulness and dedication to customer satisfaction are noteworthy. A fast-food experience that feels a cut above the rest.”
“Both persons behind the counter were focused and friendly! I was grateful at how efficient they were which got me back on the road faster. And it was an excellent touch that despite being in a busy travel plaza, they double checked to make sure I didn't leave without startling perfect order and sauce! The food was fresh and a hell of a lot better than I expected from the rest station so I really hope this crew is working the next time I pass through. I was delighted!”
“Whether you want to enjoy a live music performance or find a quiet corner to chat with friends, New Jersey bars can meet your different needs.”
“Primero Buena atención muy lindo lugar se siente relajado y la comida excelente yo me quedé con ganas de más se las recomiendo a todos 100% buena”

“Fresh, delicious, and packaged with care. The reason why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the Papusas Mixtas didn't taste like they had ANY chicharron inside. Also, the cabbage slaw was not a slaw. It was just plain veggies without any fermentation or vinegar or dressing. The Carne Asada tacos were flawless.”
“We don't often go to the S Olden Ave location but we were pleasantly surprised with the top notch service we received tonight. The two young ladies working there tonight were both very pleasant and friendly, seemed generally interested in providing great service and did a delicious job making our sundaes. We've had less then good service at other local Carvel locations. Very glad we tried going there again.”
“Stopped in to try out the rolls for our 2023 catering season. While we were at it..Grabbed a few hoagies that were 🔥🔥🔥. And the rolls are the best tasting in the tri state. So many different styles to choose from. Look forward to using them. Thanks Matt for letting us take a tour..highly recommend them for baked goods to anyone in and out of the food industry!”
“Great dive bar for stiff drinks, old school music to sing along to and drunken bar food. There is also an outside seating area (public bench project) Also right next to the best crepes!”
“I know it's just Olive Garden, but the one in Princeton/Lawrenceville, NJ is very good, with a special nod to our server John, who was polite, attentive without being intrusive, and helped make it a very positive experience.”

“I have to thank KK Sweets for the fabulous cake, cookies, macarons, and caneles. I couldn't have imagined a better cake. My idea of some of my favorite things on my cake, I thought couldn't be done. But KK Sweets came up with this amazing concept. That is totally me! And the witch's hat on top brought it together to match my theme of a "Salem Chic" 40th birthday party. It was too beautiful to cut, but we did...and it was delicious. The best cake I think I've ever had for any of my birthdays. For your next event, please go to KK Sweets in Hamilton on Quakerbridge Road. You will not be disappointed!”
“Taco Landia is a hidden gem in the world of Mexican cuisine in Trenton NJ.
I recently had the pleasure of ordering a variety of dishes from their menu, and each one exceeded my expectations. The guacamole con chips were fresh and creamy, perfect for dipping. The fajitas were bursting with flavor, and the azada was juicy and tender. The T-camaron was a delightful seafood option that showcased the chef's skills. The aguas frescas mediana, jamaica was a refreshing accompaniment to the meal. The platoon Fritos were crispy and satisfying, while the churros con helado had a sweet ending that left me craving more. Overall, Taco Landia is a must-visit for anyone looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food.
Thank you to my waitress as well. You were amazing! I look forward to more dishes. Well-deserved tip!”
“Good Authentic Mexican Food, Reasonable Prices, Friendly Service.
The neighborhood is a bit rough looking, but OK.
You should call and order and pick up your food.
Do not order online.
The online prices are two or three times as much!
Vegetarian options: Order a burrito with no meat .”
“To gatekeep or not… Pho Kim is hands down the best Vietnamese in the NJ/PA area out of the 6 or 7 close by. Tons of options, tons of vegetarian options off menu, the freshest mint & pickle, delicious food. I really have a hard time understanding the other reviews on here.
We got 2 drinks, 4 apps, and 2 entrees for $70.
The food is delicious. The service and staff were lovely. Give it a try for yourself!”
“It’s a good place but sometimes I get my order wrong or they just don’t get me some stuff that I ordered in always order donuts but they never give it to me and I’m abt to go to the counter to ask for the receipt and they throw it away so how was I supposed to know that they got it or not ?♀️??”
“I got take out for lunch today with my husband, and this place is AMAZING! Their potato greens are out of this world, and the fried snapper was fresh and delicious. I want to go back for dinner, it was that good. Service was very friendly, and the wait for food was only about 10 min. I’m going to crave their food.”
“There is a fantastic amount of merchandise to choose from. I’ve received many compliments on the skirt, jacket and top that I purchased.”

“It is an authentic Irish pub. No food, just Guiness, whiskey, and good company. You can join a whiskey ambassadors club where you try 32 whiskeys for pride and to be among the few who accomplish this feat. Bring in your own food or door dash if you like. And just enjoy a good vibe. Amazing history on the walls with odes to heroes of Irish self determination like Gerry Adams and Bobby Sands”
“Been fienin for a pork roll egg and cheese sandwich since my hometown tigers deli no longer exists.. This place caught me off guard because it looks like a house. The hospitality was great , nostalgic days with the guys in there talking sports and joking.
I ordered 2 pork roll egg and cheese sandwiches, they were out of Kaiser rolls but the back up bread was very fresh and good. Sandwiches were great. Pork roll was not thin either the thick slices...I would've took a picture but we ate it ?.
Thanks”
“The food was exceptionally good, like mouth watering good. The Birria was next level. Like honestly the taste of well seasoned tender off the bone beef.. just completely delicious.. also the staff were super nice and hospitable.. no after where you are in the world this place is worth the trip..”
“This unassuming cafe is on the lower level of the Carteret Arms apartments. The residence is a place for the elderly and thus the hours are a bit wonky. Provided you want a meal before 6pm, this should be a go-to spot. \n\nEverything is delicious. They lean towards fried foods, but have a great selection of seafood dishes and grilled options. Neighborhood favorites include the island pasta, which is close to divine. \n\nOn this visit we tried the grilled chicken sandwich and the blackened sandwich, both of which hit the spot. Good greens and cabbage, too. The owner makes homemade desserts. There are a variety of soft drinks and it is otherwise BYOB. \n\nThere is a small area for dining if you want to eat in.”
“Ordered on DoorDash food came quickly. I have been looking for a spot that has authentic Puerto Rican food that offers delivery and this is definitely it. I ordered the pernil white rice and beans. The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. The rice was cooked perfectly and the beans were delicious. Portion was generous. I can’t wait to order again and try everything else. :)”
“when i walked in i was genuinely shocked. the place is amazing it’s like 3 different restaurants in one. dessert, spanish, and italian. the atmosphere is also amazing. out back is very clean with beautiful furniture. this isn’t even all of it. seriously guys. shout to tony man. a real cool guy
Kid-friendliness: ice cream and cookies? that’s all i gotta say.”
“Dinner June of 2025, Excellent all around!! The Service!!! The food was perfect!!! Better than the service I had received at Morton's in AC. The booths could be spot cleaned and a couple of older tables replaced, but the people there were exceptional and attentive and on point.”
“Great service, delicious food, nice atmosphere. Our waitress was amazing and the food was exploding with flavor. I will definitely return.”
“Muy mal servicio. Me enferme por comer el cocktail de camarón. Y el camarón estaba pasado. Ni que fuéramos animales para que nos sirven algo que ya no está bueno.”
“The food and the service are good . I enjoyed this place. I will come back again to try out the other menu choices. The restaurant is nice and it has a bar. There is parking and it’s off the street so that’s a plus.They do include tip and up charge if you use credit.”

“Stepping into The Orchid House in Trenton feels like a warm hug from a beloved family member. This gem isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience that lingers long after your last bite. The food (primarily vegetarian/vegan) takes center stage; they craft every dish of fresh ingredients and unique flavors. They have an array of delicious natural juices that our team couldn't stop drinking, so we purchased all they had left. Every bite and sip is a journey for your taste buds. But what truly makes The Orchid House shine is its service. The staff's hospitality is genuine, offering warm smiles alongside knowledgeable recommendations. The ambiance is equally inviting and offers comfort. Soft lighting and gentle music create a haven for relaxed dining. And the heart of it all? The passionate owners pour their love for food and community into every aspect of the restaurant. So, if you're seeking an unparalleled culinary adventure where every guest feels like family, The Orchid House awaits with open arms (and delicious food!).”
“I just left Ila Mae’s and was very pleased with the food and service. I am a foodie so I got shrimp and grits with cheese, chicken and waffles, spinach omelet with bacon…my tummy was happy! Of course I have food left to take home to enjoy later. I found this restaurant online and was a little skeptical because I am not from the area.I will be returning❤️”
“Great time, great drinks, great company.”

“I just want to brag on this place. I’ve frequently visit 1911 in Trenton with my co-workers from the state. Nice vibe good food. I’ve recently visited the Willingboro location same good food and Vibe, However the customer service I receive from the manager Sharif was outstanding Sharif went above and beyond, and I will definitely be a regular.”
“Enjoyable thin and crispy crust, tomato sauce has the most amazing flavor. We enjoyed it with sausage- also had great flavor. There is a large edge to the crust. Just wish the sauce and cheese went closer to the edge. But that’s our preference. Had terrific and efficient service from Ryan. FYI you can order it lite- so it is not as crispy or well, for more crispy and char. We didn’t make a request and it came out perfect. We ate in - booths are very comfortable and pizza always tastes better fresh out of the oven. Highly recommend.”
