“Had lunch there with my wife my cheese burger platter was excellent. Marlene had a dog all way and onion rings excellent. Coffee was good. Nice place .going return soon.“

“This place was fantastic! My husband and I went there on a whim. And we are so glad that we did. We love the ambience, it looks like a country cottage. And the service was awesome. She was there to make us comfortable and happy.....which she did. And the food was the piece de resistance . We had stuffed zucchini blossoms for our appetizer and they were perfect. Then we got a salad, of which the house dressing is the way to go. And then we had an order of snow crab legs that were PHENOMENOL! And we also ordered the Pasta dish which had deep sea scallops and shrimp with a vodka sauce over angel hair pasta. Which was also incredibly good. We left there feeling very happy and satisfied! Thanks Country Cottage! We DEFINETLY will be back. =)“

“This isn’t your average diner! We look forward to the wild and delicious specials every week, and the food is fantastic! Such friendly staff, and the family platters are cheaper than grocery shopping!“

“Employees steal from customers and the owner has no accountability. (long story short) My friends and I would frequent Gees often but unfortunately we will never be back. We ate dinner there, paid the tab, tipped well and unfortunately I left my wallet on the bar top (my fault) just for the employees to help themselves to the remainder of the cash that was left in it. What a joke.“

“Love this place the food the service the atmosphere!“

“Practicing social distancing and offering car service!! Support responsible local businesses; they need us now more than ever!!“

“First time stopping in. The food was great. And the price was very reasonable. The place has great atmosphere, clean & so much to choose from. Staff was super friendly. Especially Brooks, who went above & beyond helping us try decide what to order. I'm not kidding when I say everything looked so good. He kindly gave different suggestions. He took time to explain different options, what they were and how they were made. Any questions or requests we had were met with nothing but kind responses. Will definitely be back!“

“Sunrise Family Restaurant is hands down one of my favorite places to eat! I’ve been going there for a while now and it never disappoints. I like to call it a hidden treasure in the neighborhood. The minute you walk in, you feel like part of the family — the staff is so warm, welcoming, and truly wonderful. The menu is HUGE, the food is always delicious, and the prices are more than fair. If you’re looking for a new go-to spot, this is it! Do yourself a favor and stop in — you’ll feel right at home and leave with a full belly and a big smile!“

“Fantastic service, great food, fun atmosphere- highly recommend“

“Haven’t been to Applebees in a very long time, will now be returning more frequently due to the exceptional service. Luke was phenomenal, informative, helpful, and on the ball with everything. He made it a great experience. The food was also very good.“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. The food served here is fresh and expertly prepared. The amount of thought and care that goes into every dish is obvious. It is also very fun to read their menu off the chalk board. One of the appetizers we got was an asparagus corndog, it was so unique and delicious. I came here to celebrate my bday, and I could not have dreamed of a better meal! Thank you GRANGE for everything you do!“

“With excellent service. I didn't ask our server her name, but server 128** was awesome. Two thumbs up for the Greenview Tavern.“

“I had two hotdogs, one with chili cheese and the other with basic relish ketchup mustard. Both were excellent, if a little zealous on the relish. The mustard was brown mustard which is ALWAYS a welcome surprise. I truly love hotdogs and these met my expectations. My brother had the lentil soup which was absolutely amazing, and that is what I would order next time I am here. My other brother had the French toast, which he enjoyed. The service is very friendly and welcoming, the kind of place where you feel like a regular your first time in. Total was $37 for enough lunch for 3 people in their 20s plus drinks.“

“Place is great and solid. They make the best breakfast in town, too bad they aren't open earlier but I guess to keep quality the chef/owner need to sleep or be with their families at some point unfortunately for us hungry customers. Burgers, dogs,gyros, turkey sandwiches, and Italian ice recommended.“

“Great place. Food and service are awesome .“

“Finally made it to the new location today with hubby. We sat at the bar and spoke with John. I have to say what a beautiful place John has built here. Beers were cold and the burger was delicious. Spacious indoors and beautiful wrap around porch with seating. Definitely will be visiting again. Oh and plenty of parking. 🍻👏🍔“

“The Penne alla Vodka with chicken cutlet is fantastic a few times over now. 👍👍“

“Excellent cuisine, attentive staff and an overall cozy atmosphere in every room. This is fine dining without the pretentiousness that usually comes with it. The Old Stone House is, in my opinion, the finest dining experience in the entire county. 10 out of 10.“

“Great food, great people, love the new menu!“

“I just discovered this place. Great Chicken.“

“This place is not only so beautiful and welcoming, but the food is incredible. My husband and I came for dinner and the service was impeccable, as well as the timing of the appetizers and entrees. We had the pork ribs special and the lamb saulvapki dish. Beautiful presentation of the food which was also bursting with flavors. We will definitely be back!“

“My wedding day was 10/05/2025 As a wedding photographer, I would say the view is perfect for the photo!!! We held our ceremony and cocktail hour in the large open mountain area surrounded by lush greenery—it was stunning. For the reception, the indoor barn provided a woody, cozy, and elegant atmosphere that felt both warm and refined. One of the biggest highlights was having the entire venue to ourselves for the whole day. Unlike other places, we didn’t have to share the space with other weddings, which made the experience feel very private and special. Everything was incredibly clean and well-maintained, especially the bathrooms (which were large and spotless!), and the private bridal suite was perfect for getting ready. The owner and staff are true professionals. The owner is an experienced chef, and you can really taste the difference with the farm-to-table menu. Everything was fresh, organic, and seasonal. Our guests haven't stopped raving about how terrific the food was! We also loved the tasting session before the wedding, which helped us feel confident in our choices. The managers guided us through every step, offering great suggestions and coordinating with our vendors (who they have great partnerships with—no pressure to buy!). They kept everything running smoothly and on schedule, answering every question we had along the way. We can’t wait to come back for one of their farm dining events in the future!“

“Great dogs. And friendly too Support this business!“

“Great burger and fries great server definitely coming back with the girls“

“We are visiting from Colorado and staying in Greenwood lake area. We tried the burgers first number 12 and number 14 in both were amazing the next day we got the burgers again for lunch and then try the jerk chicken beans and rice in the sweet plantains dish and all were excellent. I would highly recommend this place if you’re looking for some good food and a great price“

“Great carribean food like nowhere else, and the host of a great Wednesday jam that’s been going on for over 20 years.“

“A Great night at the Cove Castle last night. My girlfriend and I attended the History of Greenwood Lake event at the Cove and it was very enjoyable. Bob, Andrea, Chuck and the entire crew made the experience exceptional. The setting and view of the lake from the second floor dinning room was beautiful. The food was delicious and the presentation was excellent. Drinks were large and reasonably priced. In Bob's 5 years at the Cove Castle he has transformed the place into a fine place to dine, drink and enjoy top notch entertainment. Can't wait to return to "The place to go" on Greenwood Lake.“

“Went to the Tree Tavern for a privet event. Over the weekend. The food was Delicious, Charcuterie board, Salad, Bruschetta, Spinach Artichoke Dip, Pork Potstickers, Shrimp Coconut & Buffalo, Fried Calamari. Beef Sliders, 3 different Pizzas, not sure if I missed something, but it just kept coming out and was so good. The service was on point, sensational. The outdoor Atmosphere has a laidback relax vibe. In short, this is the BEST KEPT SECRET IN NEW JERSEY. A must do again and again...“

“FIRE!!!!! This place is amazing! The problem is, it took me months to actually try the food. The portions are excellent, the fajitas are insane, the guac is fresh and delicious, my order took 12 minutes(fast!), and the price is right. They Kept It Simple Stupid! Real industry people will get that joke. Highly highly recommended!“

“We arrived on a Wednesday afternoon and we were one of two customers in the restaurant. We waited at least 45 minutes for our meal. We didn’t complain because we were having a nice leisurely day apple picking. The food finally arrived my beans were watery as if they were cooked in water with no seasoning. OK I let it go because if the beans were the only thing wrong with the meal that’s not bad right. My husband got to the second half of his brisket sandwich and the brisket was petrified (Not my word I got it from another reviewer were but it fits perfectly). At this point we obviously mentioned some thing to our waitress. She agreed that the meat was not OK and said she would contact her manager who is not on location. She then came back and said the owner Laura who is the manager too who she called said she would give us 10% off. My husband was blown away by this response. He said it was a smack in the face which I completely agree. I then proceeded to add on all the rest of the issues we had that we did not say a word about at first. After the real issue that we wanted resolution from this is how they handled it? Are you kidding? Wait get ready for the best part. The bill came and they took 10% off of my husband‘s meal we got $1.60 off!!! Can you actually believe it? This restaurant is managed poorly and should go out of business. We spent $150 on a terrible lunch.“

“Good food. Attentive server. Good value.“

“We always enjoyed any meal we ordered. It was a very "comfortable homey" atmosphere. You will be missed in West Milford. Best of Luck to your Family.“

“Great food in a comfy, friendly atmosphere! If you LOVE a good dog “All the Way”,Mc Cobbs is a MUST!“

“The best chicken pot pies in New Jersey and New York.The food is quality and large portions.The staff is friendly and accommodating. The other thing is the price for what you get is incredible.“

“It was an incredibly hot sunny day, my partner and I were looking for a dining experience when we came across Biergarten. I am absolutely blown away and all expectations were incredibly exceeded. They have a plethora of options including the bison burger, pulled pork, kids menu and much more. We decided to go with the tacos and tried each of every kind. Our absolute favorite was the Mahi Mahi tacos. Perfect blend of Mahi, Pineapple Salsa, and other ingredients. All balanced perfectly. The chicken taco was also incredibly delicious. Incredibly simple and traditional, however tasted extremely phenomenal. The pork taco and steak tacos were also very tasty. However the Chicken and Mahi are my personal recommendation. Our waitress (apologies for forgetting your name) a young woman, tan complexion. Was incredibly friendly, attentive and interactive and made our dining experience even more of a pleasure. Incredibly delicious, and cozy. I would recommend and return to this establishment 1000%!“

“Erica is an amazing bartender. Her drink suggestions are on point!! Definitely recommend“
