“Absolutely the best Jamaican food around. I would say on par with Scotchies in Jamaica. Wonderful Caribbean vibe. We ordered a mix for the table and not one dish disappointed. Fall off bone ribs. Great jerk sauce and hot as hell boda pepper sauce”

“Very cool spot. Interesting, creative menu, really nice array of house cocktails which are also creative. Good energy, good music, and the layout works really well - the bar area has its own vibe and good seating options, from booths to hightops. It's fun!”

“A Hidden Gem in Wharton That Keeps Getting Better!

This evening we had a truly wonderful dinner at Reno’s Pizzeria and Restaurant in Wharton, NJ. From start to finish, everything about our visit was top-notch. Our server, Shirley, was incredibly attentive—friendly, prompt, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. What really stood out, though, was that Reno himself came by to check in and ensure we were enjoying our evening. It’s not every day you see that level of care and pride from an owner, and it absolutely elevated the experience.

We started with two fantastic appetizers—the eggplant rollatini and little neck clams in marinara sauce. Both were delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. For entrees, we chose the mahi mahi in mango sauce special and the shrimp scampi over linguini. Each dish was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. Compliments to the chef—truly excellent work in the kitchen!

We ended our meal on a sweet note with the mini cannolis, which were perfectly crispy and bursting with flavor.

Although Reno’s (formerly Maria’s) has been a staple in town for some time, their recent expansion into a charming sit-down dining area has added so much to the local dining scene. It’s cozy, welcoming, and a perfect spot for a relaxed and satisfying dinner. Reno’s is a real asset to Wharton, and we’ll definitely be back! (PS It's BYOB!)”

“Thank you, George and staff Always aiming to make things right.”

“Favorite local bar! The boneless wings are the best!”

“I take an hour drive for their lunch/dinner specials, food is always delicious, a very pleasant restaurant and a very welcoming servet and staff. Highly recommended, If you are in the Wharton/Dover area and craving Colombian food, give them a try.”

“The food was absolutely amazing, everything my party ordered was just perfectly portioned and reasonably priced for the quality of food they give. Ecuadorian food is so underrated however its VERY delicious, I wish they would open a new store in NYC since Im sure they’ll rock the market. My fav thing was bolon de queso. Highly recommended!”
