“Great food 😋 👌 awesome environment!!!“

“Amazing Restaurant! Good food, service and cocktails .. Sam the server was very informative about the restaurants daily events ( happy hour, brunch etc.) I will definitely return ..“

“Excellent food and outstanding staff. Our server was Jen and she couldn’t have been nicer. My nephew, Max Clayton, is performing in White Christmas at the Papermill. We were a group of 10 from NH looking for a place for dinner before the show. Max raved about the food at the Millburn Standard and recommended we go there. The staff was friendly, very accommodating to our large party (we did call for reservations, but they don’t take them) and the food was excellent (get the nachos!) They were just as nice when we came back after the play just to sit and have drinks. I feel like they went out of their way to accommodate us and we are all most appreciative. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.“

“if you like good food this is the place to go. We had a little bit of everything. Highly recommend the cheese and meat board and the gnocchi is amazing. The winner of the night was the tuna and don't skip dessert. We will come back.“

“The host Ranjitha and team deccan spice were excellent. Would recommend to everybody😊“

“The reviews I read to this restaurant really fooled me. The food served here did not taste fresh. Don't get me started on their drinks, more like ice. If you love spending money on bad food and iced drinks then this is the place for you. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone“

“We had a beautiful ladies luncheon at the restaurant and the food, service & ambiance was above & beyond.... Truly a gem !!!!!!! Thank you“

“This is my favorite place ever. The best sushi, the best ramen, the best edamame. I’ve never had better than in here. Every time the food comes quick and it’s absolutely amazing. The servers are also so nice. I’m always happy to come in. Thank you Kinya!“

“went here with my daughter a few days ago, and everything was outstanding. The food and drinks were delicious, and I had one of the best Cosmos I’ve ever had
and I’m very picky about my Cosmos! The atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was great as well. I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back.“

“Totally enjoyed our first visit to this new gem. The decor is creative, the cocktails are delicious and the food is excellent. The staff is attentive and very friendly! Wishing them all the best and hoping this place is around for a long time!!“

“My go to Hookah lounge in Staten Island. They make good drinks, tasty hookah, and their food is pretty good. I was surprised. This is a good spot to hang out and conduct a meeting. Met here plenty of times. Music is not too loud during the week. Karaoke nights is fun here. Not too intimidating for shy people. 💯“

“Great first time Dining at Captial Craft, experience was amazing, even thanked the chef for the wonderful food.“

“Had a great experience at House 157! From the moment we walked in, Kayla at the front host stand was welcoming, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of. Our waitress Julie was amazing attentive, professional, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the entire experience. You can tell they both genuinely care about making sure guests have a good time. Great service all around, and I’ll definitely be back!“

“Delicious with excellent service.“

“My Third time there in a few weeks. Great Atmosphere and ambiance. Bartender, Jacob.....superb. Greeted us coming in seated us, served us superb drinks. On Point. My New place to go ! Thank you“

“Outstanding craft cocktails and delicious food! I only wish I had found them on my first night in Rahway rather than my last. I would have been here every night…“

“Awesome atmosphere with great food & drinks! Staff was very friendly!“

“Been there since the beginning! They make some terrific liquors. Mellow vibes, great staff. Cocktails that keep you coming back for more. Can't ask for better! The theme nights are a hoot! Love the glassware! Come out and support them!“

“Welcoming, friendly staff, great food, great drinks and great vibes! I love this place. Loved the salmon bites, catfish sliders and their greens. 🍔 🥬 🍷 🍹“

“Great place had fun with friends. Good friendy staff an food looks really good. Even though I didn't actually order any myself this first visit. Also 2 for 1 shots all night definitely helped even more. They also have touch tunes jukebox. Recommend to all visit this establishment.“

“Creative, fresh and delicious.“

“First time for me and my boyfriend, went to celebrate his birthday and no regrets at all. One of the best meals, everything was perfect and tasty, Maiara our server was very sweet and helpful. Definitely going back.“

“Would highly recommend attending a tasting here! As soon as you arrive for your tasting you are given a delicious welcome drink. Our host was Adam and not only was he knowledgeable, he was very friendly, welcomed questions and accommodating to everyone's taste buds. We even purchased two bottles of whiskey. Too bad the distillery is no longer open as a regular bar or else we go there to hang out!“

“I recently went to Hells Kitchen in Las Vegas and ordered the beef wellington. My first thought was I had a much better beef wellington at Canlon's. Well done Eddie. Thank you.“

“This is the first 5 Star restaurant we have found in NJ since moving in 1991 from Manhatten. Four of us went this past sunday evening. Everything was 5 star,including food; Niavh's (Irish name pronounced as Nieve) service; and the personable manager, Dave. Gorgeous wood and glass. Great Ambience. Easy to park. Could not be happier!“

“Had a surprise dinner for my wife's 50th birthday with 15 guests. Everything was perfect. Drinks, appetizers, dinner & service. We will be back and I'm sure our guests will as well. Great atmosphere and the wait staff was spot on with everything.“

“Came here last month for dinner with my parents and would recommend. Really enjoyed the food, very flavorful and fresh.

I like the owner as well, I think they were short a person that night and he made sure we felt seen and attended to.“

“good food 😋 good service *****“

“Have eaten here twice now and both times were exactly what you’d hope for. Exceptional burgers, exceptional chicken, solid beer list, and good service.

Love when the windows are open when the weather is nice. Solid patio as well.

Will specifically call out the spicy chicken sandwich. One of the best I’ve had. My family also enjoys their salads quite a bit.“

“Good and quick service. Best empanadas we ever had. Based on those, the philly cheese steaks were a let down. More bread than filling, hardly any cheese. Tap beer was flat as a Guinness, and wasn't supposed to be. Holiday mule was good.“

“Caught up with a friend for drinks and dinner...the place is quaint, with a great, lively vibe. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Linda, one of the bartenders. She was absolutely a joy, smiling and chatting while she served us up our drinks, then meticulously prepared the dipping oil for our warm bread. After taking our order, Linda served us two very large portions. I had a pasta dish with rigatoni that was made fresh that day. (The bar is connected to an Italian restaurant, which is a separate business, but they work seamlessly to provide customers in both establishments a terrific dining experience. The live music was fabulous, with a great mix of classic hits performed by very talented musicians. We opted not to get dessert and left with our bellies full and our hearts content. Parking was a little bit of a challenge with it being a Saturday night, but Linda informed us to use the VFW parking lot the next time around. Can't wait to check out Karaoke night on Wednesdays. I was having so much fun that I forgot to take photos.“

“Great restaurant good food and friendly staff.“

“I like this spot , I come by first time in 2014 a d I still coming when I get New Jersey, I really like the food“

“Went there 2 weeks ago with a couple of friends. Food was delicious. The staff were very nice. They had a verity of mixed drinks and beer. I highly recommend trying this place out.“

“From the phone reservation to the table service, the quality of their staff really surprised me. The bartender made good drinks (though please keep the mint in the mojitos), and our server was very attentive, constantly checking on us, gave good suggestions and was able to explain every question. The food, on the other hand, was just okay, not bad, but nothing that would make me go back for it. The atmosphere was relaxing and welcoming.

Keepers is a great spot to grab a few cocktails before dinner somewhere else, or as a cozy stop during a date night.“

“Great Food, Great Service Great Atmosphere. So we were bummed when we saw they closed the original location because how much we loved the place. We were relieved when they announced they were opening up in a much more appropriate and highly upgraded venue. This was perfect timing for us to celebrate our 9 year anniversary here. Upon arriving the inside captures the comfort and style of the Livingston location and then improves upon it with the beautiful outside seating area. Now onto the food which is just as good if not better than the original location im glad to see the quality has remained consistent. My steak was cooked to perfection and my wifes pasta dish was packed with quality flavor. The drink menu was definitely brought to the next level as well everything seemed like it was fine tuned and everything we tried was on point and had its own unique delicious flavor profile. Andy behind the bar was very knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to talk to about the different cocktails. For dessert we shared the tiramisu which was great it wasn't youre traditional kind but we loved the spin they put on it with the cake and ice-cream. Lastly for service Jonathan took amazing care of us and made our special day very memorable along with the rest of the staff. Everyone that came by the table was professional and had a smile on their face. They all seemed happy and took pride in their work which was nice to see. We will definitely be returning in the future. I implore anyone that reads this to visit and support this wonderful place.“

“Amazing drinks amazing bartenders!!!“

“Fantastic food, good service. I highly recommend this place.“

“Visited with friends for Dinner and Drinks, and we all had a great time. Cocktail options were limited but they were strong. Most of the Food item was good, but the Chicken was a little bit dry.

Service was a bit relaxed despite the place being not that crowded but the Staff were friendly and polite. Overall, pretty good option for Dinner and Drinks.“

“Muy Recomendable excelente servicio,muy lindas las niñas que nos atendieron,Rumba increíble“

“Dolce is a truly exceptional spot that easily earns a five-star review! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by an elegant and inviting atmosphere that feels both stylish and comfortable.

The food is outstanding—beautifully presented, fresh, and full of rich, balanced flavors. Every dish reflects careful preparation and attention to detail, making the dining experience genuinely memorable. The dessert selection, as you might expect from the name, is especially impressive and a perfect way to finish the meal.

The drinks are equally refined, with a great selection of cocktails that are both creative and perfectly crafted.

Service is top-notch, with friendly, attentive staff who make sure every guest feels well taken care of from start to finish.

Whether you’re visiting for a casual night out or a special occasion, Dolce delivers a consistently high-quality experience. Highly recommended!“

“Esta buena la comida brasileña“

“I have been going to Marlos for years, and I love how they have remodeled the place. And the food is the best.“

“Our date night was set with amazing views from a glass-wrapped space perfect for a glowing sunset. Chris, our host, greeted us off the elevator like he'd been expecting us — warm, glad we were there, and happy to switch our seats when we asked. And Kenya, our server, was just the best: attentive, spot-on with her recommendations, and so naturally warm we felt like regulars. We came for the skyline, but we'll be back for Chris and Kenya.“

“Sunday funday football brunch is the place to be. Fabulous food. Great selection of draft beer! The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend the Deviled eggs and Pimento bread dip.“

“Súper ricoooo todoooo 20/10!!“

“I love how fast paced this restaurant is but it is so laid back that you can stay here and talk for a few hours“

“Recently had a great shopping experience at Eataly in the Short Hills Mall. I stopped in for some Too Good To Go bags and was really impressed with both the food quality and value. I also had a quick conversation with the Procurement Manager in the pasta dept, super nice and knowledgeable, about wheat and my gluten intolerance. He explained that all ingredients included in their prepared foods are sourced directly from Italy, completely authentic. When I returned home I tried small portions of their rigatoni and focaccia bread and had no reaction. It's amazing that I can now have real pasta and bread again! Kudos to that Team member!! The Too Good To Go bags were fantastic! Caprese salad, chicken noodle soup, pasta with roasted peppers, risotto with tomato sauce, plus a bakery bag with artisan sourdough bread and pastries, which my son loved! Great food and great people at the Eataly, highly recommend this location!“
