Comfort Food Restaurants near Woodbury, NJ

“friendly staff, yummy food, cool view! Had a great time with the kids!“

“Fast fresh good service would come back“

“We dined here while visiting Philly for the weekend. We managed to walk in, but the restaurant is small and intimate so a reservation is probably best. It is also BYOB, so remember to bring a bottle of wine if you want something to drink.

The menu is clearly marked with gluten-free options, making ordering easy. Our server asked about allergies upfront and was confident handling the request when we noted my partner has Celiac (we mentioned it as a gluten allergy to the staff). We ordered the seared duck leg confit and the steak au poivre, and both were excellent. My partner had no symptoms the following day. We did not ask specific questions about shared kitchen space, but the clear labeling and great atmosphere made for an excellent dinner.“

“We had Matt as our server and he was excellent!! Great food great service 🦃🍽🍁“

“Thank heavens for Colonial Beach Local Foodie’s referral. Meet a gentleman at Thousand Trails resort just outside of Colonial Beach Va. that had a thick Upstate NY accent. We preceded to reminisce about family in Upstate NY,, of course food rolled into the conversation,. That’s how I came across Nonna Lena’s Italian Cuisine. I stopped by the restaurant by myself a couple of later.. Thought I’d get a quick lunch fix. Wrong! My eyes nearly popped out of my head when I the chief my plate of Eggplant Parmesan. What a wonderful freshly made dinner (plus leftovers for 2 extra meals). The staff all were very friendly. Chiefly came out to see how I liked my meal. He shared some details about the newly open restaurant & homemade recipes, etc. He mentioned breakfast was also served and somehow in the conversation he decided to send me home with a sample of sausages & gravy along with my husbands meal. OMGoodness, the next day my breakfast was fantastic. Foodie’s note. Their food is prepared fresh from scratch daily😊. Don’t past by Colonial Beach Va. without dinning at Nonna Lena’s Italian several times.“

“Went to a Pink concert and stopped here for dinner before going Food was good and service was excellent Waiter was Chris Also stopped in for breakfast the next morning before heading home Food was good again and service was fine If I am back in Philadelphia I already know a good diner to go to and will go there again“

“Friendly staff! Hostess was great as was our server. I only know she had a unique name. Not a large menu but what they do offer is amazing. Great atmosphere too!“

“I absolutely love eating here. This is the type of food you eat and then think about for days after. Today I had the chicken Cesar wrap special with the cucumber mint juice and it really make my work from home day. All the food is fresh and tastes amazing. You can really tell it is prepared with care and love. The to go boxes even arrived looking picture perfect which is not always the case with takeout.“

“The Butcher Bar is very lively in a fun way. We sat next to a large party of adults and kids celebrating a birthday and everyone was having fun, no matter their age. It's tough to pull that off. My husband and I both had a steak. I had steak frites and he had a steak with asparagus and mashers. The food was yummy and in large portions (think this might be a Philly thing). Our server was just starting that evening and she did a great job. I had a delicious cocktail with prosecco and my husband had a nice glass of red.“

“I had the Ribs and chicken….the signature sauce is the way to go. The greens and Mac and cheese were 🔥 My wife got the brisket sliders and loved them and the potato salad. Our server was super friendly and I almost forgot the cornbread lol amazing. I’m not sure how this place slipped under my fat guy radar 😂“

“Source Urban Brewery, Philadelphia, PA. I hate how much I enjoyed my visit to Source Urban Brewery. Why I wasn’t looking forward to this visit is a story for another time. The young women working this evening were awesomeness. I order the pretzel. It came with beer cheese. I told the young woman how much I loved beer cheese. She said it came with mustard and beer cheese but she could give me 2 beer cheeses. I said, ‘two beer cheese please.’ I have 3 beers each was better than the last. They all had a ton of flavor. They all tasted exactly as they were described. I think they are trying to be a higher end brewery. But, they have a big bar and you never what kind of crowd the Fillmore is going to bring in. Another young woman staffer told me she liked my shirt. If you follow me you know she won the shirt off my back—bonus video; 1. Win the shirt off my back shirt presentation. 2. Bathroom video.“

“Finally made a visit to Haddon Culinary today (both locations!) and Holy Wow. Amazing selection of both fresh and prepared foods, best takeout salad I’ve ever had, and the staff was so knowledgeable, friendly and accessible. Totally worth the 30-min drive and I will be back.“

“Great atmosphere, friendly employees and great bands“

“I hadn't eaten here in a long time because I'm not in the neighborhood often. I forgot how fresh & delicious their food is! I ordered the white meat, boneless wings with cajun dry rub & BBQ sauce on the side & fries. Their boneless wings are huge, handmade & juicy!! I barely ate 2 out of 7 & probably should've ordered less but I'll eat the leftovers. The fries also tasted freshly made & the perfect touch of crisp & not soggy. I enjoyed the total flavor profile & the atmosphere is cute with maybe a handful of tables so if you want to sit get there early or late. What I might change next time is to add the cajun rub to the fries (note: the pic of the fries is after I asked for some in a container to put on myself), & I'll probably try a different sauce because they have so many options for those of you that like dark meat, they have that option as well. The woman that waited on me couldn't have been nicer. In a way I'm glad I'm not in this neighborhood often. You shouldn't eat (even fresh homemade) fried chicken every day.“

“I love the new compliance set up. Tht are open for take out and they still have the same quality food (fresh), happy demeanor considering our current pandemic, and they are clean 8nside out as usual. The owner is very nice and the waitresses are a delight. I too.them.mor than the Applebee's staff.??“

“A busy, mostly carry out service with good food and friendly service. There's about four tables you can sit and eat at after ordering at the counter. Had Bacon, eggs, and grits, one of my diner go-to breakfasts, and it was served quickly with nice fresh ingredients. The eggs were perfectly cooked over medium and they gave plenty of bacon“
