“I’m hesitant to even write a review because I consider this place a true hidden gem! With so many options in the area I find myself forgetting about Turtle & Wolf until after my recent visit it sprang to the top of my list!I went for a birthday celebration and my friends and I shared a bunch of dishes. Everything was so well executed, the portions were generous and we just had such a lovely evening. Cannot pass on this adorable BYOB.“

“My wife and I walked into LK for the first time and the hostess greeted us and said "sit anywhere you'd like".....what restaurant ever says that, we were hooked right away. We both shared a caesar salad, it was delicious. My wife ordered pasta with sausage. That too was delicious, I had the pasta with cherry tomatoes and crab meat, absolutely delicious. When our order came, we immediately got fresh pepper and before I could even ask for fresh cheese, a gentleman was waiting behind me with the cheese. I mean, c'mon the place has a great food, great service and a nice chill atmosphere. I think we just found our go-to restaurant.“

“We had early reservations tonight and we were the first diners. When we walked in the waitress told us that we had to be done in 90 minutes. My wife and I are fairly quick eaters. But when I hear something like that it can suck the enjoyment out of the dining experience.Putting that aside, we had great appetizers and main dishes. The deserts were not on par with the previous two courses.We have eaten at Bloom several times since the summer time and had enjoyed it. I don’t think that we will be rushing back.“

“I've been looking for a local, full service coffee shop that roasts their own beans, sells coffee/espresso, as well as offers breakfast and lunch.**This IS that place**I couldn't tell from their website, but the posts I saw on insta showed that they serve food, and I'm happy to report that it tastes as good as it looks!Very friendly staff and accommodating. Although it's currently the middle of December, I wanted a macchiato over ice, which wasn't on their menu, but when I asked they happily said 'of course'.Seems like I'm going to have to sign up for their points system because I can tell I'm going to be back here a whole lot more.I'm particularly interested in sampling their beans, just wish i didn't have to buy an entire bag of beans. Why don't these local roasters sell sample packs, allowing you to still purchase a pound of beans, but separated into small batches with samples of each bean type? This would allow me to quickly figure out which bean I want to try without having to buy a single large bag and take a month to go through coffee I don't really like before trying the next type . . . Or maybe i should start roasting my own beans and do this method . . .Anyways, I really like the space they have, they've really made the most of it, very cozy and inviting.Can't wait to go back“

“I absolutely love this place! From the food, atmosphere and customer service. I have used them twice to cater my baby shower and a recent birthday party. Zinna the owner is super sweet, professional, punctual. She truly wants the customer to be happy and checks in with you. My family and friends loved the food and I will always use them in the future.“

“Wonderful experience. We had no idea what to order, so Modupe (the owner) surprised us. I only wish I could have eaten more! My daughter who can be picky was so happy with her shrimp and fries that she drew Modupe a picture. Highly recommend!!“

“I have to say I really enjoy The Thirsty Turtle. Although it's a sports bar and you think it might just be cool to watch a game, the food and staff are excellent and professional. We went the other night and met friends for dinner and it was a fantastic experience! The waiter, (I don't remember his name), but he memorized our order and everything came out perfect! We had appetizers, burgers, beer & drinks, and enjoyed everything we ate and drank. I also have to call out Manny who went above and beyond in helping me. He is smart and knows how to treat customers. Any establishment should be lucky to have him!“

“Charley is hands down my favorite restaurant in the Harrison area. From the food, the vibes, to the great cocktails, whatever you choose, you can’t go wrong. Jay behind the bar and Sam on the floor really elevate the experience by providing quality service. 10/10 highly recommend.“

“I was impressed with this restaurant, we enjoyed the food as well as the ambiance and service. I came for a business lunch. Ate inside the porch area that was enclosed. I thought the service was very good in terms of attentiveness. The food we got was flat bread pizza for appetizer, pepperoni with hot honey was delicious. The burger tasted great cooked perfectly when I ordered a medium, presentation was nice as I ordered a salad instead of French fries. Most importantly they had Aqua Pana for water. I did think the prices were a bit inflated and expensive however their service made up for it.“

“New contemporary restaurant with great menu. I stopped in for lunch and had a really good chicken sandwich. Chicken cutlet was fresh, juicy and crispy on a toasted pita with crispy prosciutto , lettuce and tomato and mozzarella. French fries were also fresh and crispy. Also tried an eggplant on focaccia with roasted red peppers and was also very delicious. Everything on the menu sounds good and I might have to go back for the hanger steak. Lots of seating , big bar , lots of TVs. I was there on a Saturday and they only had one waitress waiting on like 4 tables and 6 people at the bar which was fine because we weren’t in a hurry but I could see it getting crazy.“
“As a regular customer of the restaurant, I have always admired Danielle's dedication to excellent service and flavorful dishes. So, when it came time to plan my daughter's graduation party in the park for 100 guests, I knew exactly who to trust for catering - Danielle and her team!Right from the start, Danielle proved herself to be a true professional. Punctuality is often overlooked, but not with Danielle's catering service. She arrived on time and fully prepared to set up without any hiccups or excuses. The efficiency and seamless coordination of her staff were remarkable, allowing me to step away from the setup for an hour, knowing that everything was in capable hands.One aspect that truly impressed me was Danielle's attention to detail and foresight. The unpredictable weather forecast made us anxious about rain during the event, but Danielle had it all under control. Her team was prepared with umbrellas for the grill, ensuring that rain wouldn't dampen the spirits of our guests or the grilling process.As the party unfolded, the compliments from my guests started pouring in. They were captivated by the impeccable presentation and, most importantly, the outstanding quality of the food. Danielle's catering service offered a delectable range of dishes that catered to different tastes and dietary preferences, leaving every guest satisfied and asking for more.I can't express how many guests requested Danielle's contact information for their upcoming events. It's a testament to her exceptional catering service, which not only impressed me, a seasoned customer, but also left a lasting impression on everyone at the party.Without a doubt, I will be hiring Danielle for all my future events. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and delectable creations guarantee a successful and memorable occasion. If you're searching for a catering service that goes above and beyond, look no further than Danielle's. I can vouch for her excellence, and I am confident you'll be just as delighted as I am.“

“The Carriage House Restaurant is literally steps from the PaperMill Playhouse. Great to stop in prior to a performance. The atmosphere is best described as "cozy and rustic". I've stopped in about 2-3 times for drinks and appetizers. The food has always been very tasty. Little on the pricey side. On a positive note, you're only a few steps away from the theater. As of now, I've had Chicken Sausage Appetizers and a Steak Quesadilla. Nice wine and cocktail list. We've enjoyed their wine and cocktails on a previous visit. In December '23, I had an issue making reservations. Left two telephone messages and never received a call back. I couldn't even make a reservation on Opentable or Resy. We stopped in and informed the hostess of the issue. Anyway, we ended up eating at the bar. The Carriage House Restaurant does offer Cabaret and Murder Mystery shows.“

“Let me start off by saying I grew up in Philadelphia and ate cheesesteaks regularly ever since I was quite young. I know these folks here are known for their “best of NJ” Taylor Ham ;not pork roll ( almost forgot where I was) and cheese. I’ve had it here before and I do believe it is incredible and stands up to the claims. However… the cheesesteak they make here may not be getting enough love. You should consider it and understand that it could put up a fight with some of the best in Philly. 10/10. Would order again, and again … and again. Also, the guys here are great to chat with.“

“I like Maggie’s now. They’ve updated the menu. I got the ginger sesame orange salad it was delicious. Next time I won’t get shrimp on it because it was too big. I thought it would be popcorn shrimp. I do like the option of adding protein like chicken. The place is always packed and very loud though. Don’t get the fish and chips, not great. Probably better for takeout.Dietary restrictions: They make changes to your order if you request it.“

“THIS PLACE IS PHENOMENAL!!!!The other day I went to, Village Street Eatery, for breakfast. It was absolutely amazing! I got their Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap & on a separate occasion I got their Taylor Ham, Egg, & Cheese with extra meat and three eggs. Both items were a real treat! Their Taylor Ham, Egg, & Cheese was really really tasty, and the Taylor Ham had a wonderful crisp to it accompanied by a lovely crunch around around the edges. The best of the two was the Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap! The Corn Beef was extremely flavorful and the potatoes they added to the wrap were seasoned and tender. The Corn Beef Hash Breakfast wrap is an exemplary to-go breakfast item. I thoroughly enjoyed both! The staff is really kind, and the customer service was amazing. The ambiance is impeccable as well too, makes you want to sit down and enjoy your breakfast. I would HIGHLY recommend, Village Street Eatery, to anyone in the Maplewood area. Their Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap is a must try!“

“We love Luna Stella - such an underrated gem right in the heart of Maplewood! Cute outdoor patio/garden area in the back with plenty of seating, and the food is always excellent, as is the service. We've never had a bad meal here and will continue going back, especially when the weather is nice and we're looking for an outdoor dining spot!“

“Went there Saturday before concert.Atmosphere was excellent. The staff was excellent, first time there. Our server was very helpful with our questions. The drink selection was great. We ordered the crispy cola wings, great flavor but wings were over cooked and dried. The Chicago pizza was excellent, I order a sausage and ricotta pizza. My wife order mushrooms and truffle pasta, it was excellent. I found it better than the pizza. Great place and will return very soon.“

“Overall our brunch was very good with a couple of minor issues. The banquettes need cleaning, the juices in the cocktails weren't shaken thus making the drinks watery and not full flavored. I sent mine back and the waiter brought me another quickly. The food was good. We will come back for dinner in the future.“

“We recently held a memorial service for my father at The Old Canal Inn. Mark and his staff were professional, detail oriented, and kind. The food and atmosphere were incredible. They welcomed us and our guests like family. My dad loved to go there for a beer and I understand why. I will visit there every time I am back in the area from Massachusetts. I can't recommend The Old Canal Inn highly enough.“

“I visited Just Jake’s on a Friday evening for a live band performance and had a good time. There are no waiters, tables or chairs, just a big dance floor near the stage and a bar so everybody was dancing and having fun. There was a $8 cover charge and the price of the drinks were reasonable. Staff was friendly and it was easy and quick to get drinks.“

“Cute spot, had a quick Sunday breakfast here. The food was good, the only thing was they only had one girl working the entire spot. Poor lady was running from the counter to handle takeout orders to the kitchen to coordinate orders, to the tables to handle the seated guests, back to the counter, it was A LOT. I think she said her name was Oré. She was super sweet and held it down, but I felt bad she had to do all that. Overall, it was a nice casual spot to grab a bite. Might be better for takeout if it gets super busy.“

“This was my first time eating from here and the food was fantastic. I would have given this place 5 stars, however they really need to update their menu online. In the picture below I ordered the teriyaki, chicken, and shrimp with rice. They gave me some vegetables on the side which was sautéed very well.“

“The Highlawn made my twin daughters’ B’Mitzvah a huge success. The place and view are spectacular, the food is outrageous, and Gianna who booked us and Jose the banquet manager were so accommodating and flexible. They bent over backwards to answer all my questions and make my vision happen. The party was amazing and the guests are still calling to tell me how amazing The Highlawn was. Such a great experience working with such professionals!!!!I would recommend The Highlawn for any party, large or small!“

“Harvest Bistro is absolutely incredible! This has been a favorite lunch spot of ours for years. We also recently worked with them to cater my son's baptism party and we were so impressed. Every single guest commented on how delicious the food was. Several people even told us it was the best food they had ever had from a caterer. Tushar is so helpful and easy to work with too. We'll definitely be going back to Harvest Bistro for all of our future parties!“
“I wish our daughter wasn’t our youngest child so we could throw another bat mitzvah at 4Sixty6!!! Everything was perfect!

“We joined some family* here for lunch today. The bldg and the grounds were lovely looking. The inside has both banquet rooms for private events as well as a family feel bar and dining area. We were seated right away and the server was very prompt and friendly. Menu although not that large had a good variety. From appetizers and soups to full on entrees there was plenty to choose from. They had several specials to offer today. They are known for the burgers apparently. My aunt and husband both had the Swiss Mountain Burger. Both enjoyed them. Although the cooking between them was a bit different. My husband's was a bit pink IMO but he likes rare so didn't really care. My daughter enjoyed the penne and meatballs from the dedicated kids menu. It came with a drink and dessert. The portion was hearty and she loved the meatball! Dinner rolls on the table were amazing. Mini chibatta style that were crusty in the outside and soft and chewy in the inside. My uncle had the chicken cashew salad. Large salad although looked like only iceberg as the base. Overall filled with plenty of toppings. I enjoyed one of the salmon specials for today. I chose the grilled lemon pepper salmon. All entrees like this are served with either rice or potato and veggies. I had mashed which were very creamy and flavorful. The salmon had good flavor but IMO was cooked just a little too long. It was flaky but the edges seemed a little dry. Overall I'd recommend it but suggest asking for a medium cook. They offered a dessert menu although everyone was full and decided on just some specialty coffee. Most dishes were in the $15-25 range. Overall I'd recommend giving it a try. *Sorry for the lack of pics we were so excited to see our out of town family that I totally forgot!“
“The best place for lunch near the Rutgers-Newark campus on weekdays! The restaurant has a great cause and serves delicious three-course meals for only $12. The three courses are appetizer (choice between salad and soup), main (two different protein options and one vegetarian option), and dessert (choice between a bakery item and fruit). I have been to the restaurant several times since opening a few years ago, and the food has been excellent every time that I have been there. The only minor drawback is that the location is only open for weekday lunch between 11:30 am and 2 pm.“

“Went back to Fin after not having been there in a while. I’m happy to see it’s still as good as always. The oysters (1/2 price on Tuesday) were fresh and the freshly grated horseradish and the frozen mignionette were perfect accompaniments. The spicy cannoli tuna appetizers were outstanding. Entrees of wood-fire grilled orange roughy over escarole/beans and grilled jumbo shrimp over pineapple-mango rice did not disappoint! Our server , Melina, was extremely attentive and professional. Love that it’s BYO.Parking: Parking deck directly behind restaurant. Free after 6:00 pm and on Sundays. Nominal fee otherwise“

“The food was very good. I order a burger and fries and the hat kitchen sampler which was very very good. I recommend the latter with what ever you order. The crowd was mixed age and very friendly. The bar maid could have been a little more attentive to my order request as that was my first time there, you know what they say about first impressions. The music was on point. There's also two pool tables and a dart board for your pleasure. An for those who partake there are hookah pipes available too.Suggestion to the owner place a message on the answering machine stating time and days of operation. I almost didn't go because no one answered the phone as I'm not from the neighborhood but I took a chance glad I did. If ever I found myself in orange again I will surely stop by for a bite and to whip some tail on the pool table. LOL!!!“

“Very nice atmosphere. We had steak tacos. Not the taste and flavoring I’m used to so I probably won’t get them again. The meat was more on the chewy side and not super soft But they were ok. This is definitely a place to enjoy good music and great drinks. Our circle of family and friends really did enjoy the food and drinks. The server was super attentive and made sure we were good the entire time. Enjoyed our short time here and would definitely return.“
“I can only speak for the cocktails since we sat at the bar. I really enjoyed my drink! What a great spot to get a craft cocktail. The bar was quiet and more intimate during the week, but I would expect this place gets very crowded on the weekends. The staff was very nice and service was fast.“
“Very nice place with generous portions of well-prepared Italian food at reasonable prices. Passing by from the street, I always thought it was more of an upscale pizzeria but it’s much more than that. The specials for the day were particularly good.Parking: Big strip mall lot 50 yards from the front door and a handy access lane that’s great for dropping off passengers whose mobility is difficult or limited.“

“Came here Sunday to celebrate my wife’s birthday as it was a central location between us and my in laws. We stared with the sausage and long hot appetizer with the most amazing sauce accompanied with homemade, thick cut potato chips (PHENOMENAL). We couldn’t decide between pizza or burgers so we tried both! The burger was the best I have had in a long time. The bun to burger ratio was a perfect, each of the topping combinations sounded better than the next, great quality beef and fresh brioche buns made for a mouthwatering burger. We tried one of their pizzas on special which was a square pie, cooked perfectly and topped with the perfect mix of pepperoni, cherry peppers, ricotta and hot honey. The crust was light but substantial enough to hold up to the toppings. The beer list was plentiful and offered anything from stouts to IPAs and anything in between, even showcasing some local beers. We will definitely return to try more beers and other menu options as all other dishes being served around us looked phenomenal. 100% recommend!“
