“Honestly the food came out super fast and well done. Only issue I had was the cheese was a little bland on the fries. But Raj was super cool and offer us a lemonade on the house. Glad to see people still care about people and how they present themselves. Shoutout to raj hope he makes it far wherever he goes with that mindset?“

“OMG! We wanted to hit Tops Diner but it was packed so we looked on Yelp for something different. Im so glad Tops was packed because this place is amazing. Greeted by very friendly staff, sat quickly. Our waitress was great, answered all our questions. Get the wings with the house sauce, we got buffalo and house. We agreed we are getting the house sauced wings next time, they were both good but dang that house sauce. Had the Seoul sister with jerk chicken, amazing. Fiancee had a sandwich with the sweet potato tots, also amazing. Pound cake is delish!! I actually took a whole one home for dessert for a dinner party the next day. Everyone raved about how good it was. We're an hour away but I will drive a 2+ hour round trip for this food again!!! Go here, you won't be disappointed.“

“Checked out Blaze Gourmet Burgers in Linden, NJ yesterday! Only bummer was that they didn't have the vegan chick'n that was on the menu online, but we got the Blaze Poutine and the Impossible Blaze burger. Everything tasted great and service was very friendly. This looks like the first US location and they were founded in Canada, so I'm looking forward to more locations in the area!“

I had asked for a baked potato instead of fries and when the food came out there was fries with my sandwich. Sabrina was very quick to get it corrected. Last time I was here it was a 3 star experience. Much better now!!“

“The food was good and also we got good service.“

“Went there last week to see what this place was about. OMGGGGGG I can't say enough good things about it. I had the matzo ball soup and 1/2 pastrami sandwich with a side of coleslaw. Everything was absolutely delicious. The soup tasted like my grandmother made it. I cantcwait to go back and try other things, especially the breakfast options. The waitstaff was so attentive.“

“Food delicious, loved the empanadas. The mac and cheese outstanding. Atmosphere nice, loud but does not drown out your conversation. Only negative, food took to long to come out, 30 minutes between appetizers and entree. Recieved appetizers before drinks. Server (Dennis) was apologetic about the wait, didn't think it was his fault.“

“Food is by far the best I’ve had in the area, you get complex flavors, fresh foods, amazing clash of textures, good portions all for a quite cheap price compared to all the big restaurant chains that charge more for worse, Food arrives quick and hot and service is great. No complain. Still skeptical? Just come here and buy something for yourself, a small expense for a meal worthy of critical acclaim.“

“It is a small Pakistani restaurant. the first thing that you will notice is- it's cute decor and great photo frames on the wall (btw you can buy it)...I can keep it in a 'cute cafe in a cute downtown' category. A neighborhood like this reminds me of Frenchtown (near to PA-NJ border)you have many options to choose from (great, isn't it)I ordered* 'Andey [Egg] wala Burger' with their classic Chai* Burger - very soft bun, lots of sauces and egg.What I liked most was -its chai. it could be one of my best chai and believe me, I am Indian and I have tasted some great chai in my countryanother restaurant to boost about...!Chatham town looks beautiful and I marked more restaurants with this, and I am gonna come back for sure!Parking: did not find parking on Main St, so took a right turn and found the parking near Chatham Playhouse.“

“We went in late night like 2am on a Saturday, after a night of drinking. The food slapped, not just for late night greasy food, but for any food. So much so, I went back the next day for lunch! The burgers are a generous size, creative, fresh, and plentiful toppings! The fries are ok. The milkshakes are great! Limited seating but let me tell you, at 2am there are some characters that come in, so get a seat if you can! The kids behind the counter are pleasant, quick, and are mature enough to handle the different types of people that come in. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious food , great hot dogs and sausage.“

“Went to the Linwood while visiting family from out of state on a Friday night. I grew up in Linden so I was excited to see how the place has "grown up". Nicer bar, cleaner and comfortable sitting areas than my youth and MUCH better food. Service was excellent and food came out quickly. It was a descent portion and very tasty. My only complaint was the cost but that cannot be helped since the cost of everything has risen. However, $18 for a chicken sandwich seems a bit high.“

“An honest Irish pub that pours a great pint, has lots of young people at night and keeps you occupied with TVs and a huge number of tchotchzkes that remind you this place dates back to the '30's. Oh, the music playing over their system on Friday night was just right for my crowd. If you're looking for a comfortable place to have a drink, this won't disappoint. If you're looking for an upscale bar...well why are you in Newark?“

“good service, great food! very flavorful!“

“Great!!!“

“My experience began as soon as we arrived. we were kindly greeted and assisted by 2 hostesses . Then we were sat within seconds & once we settled in, the waiter took our drinks and appetizers. Throughout our dine, the waiter and team rushed to our needs. Overall a great experience. I will be returning. Thank you“

“We were visiting from Australia and arrived a bit early when the staff noticed us trying the door they opened up early for us. The food was amazing and the warmth of the staff was exceptional as was the owner who went out of his way to make us comfortable. A must to visit especially if you’re a hockey fan…..although maybe not if you’re a rangers fan?“

“The best food around!!!!! I eat here every week and never get tired of it! Going to get that chicken wrap today! With a side of wingz!“

“This is my FAVORITE restaurant in all of northern New Jersey. Whenever I come down to visit family, I always stop here. AMAZING staff/service, reasonable prices and the desserts are to die for! ❤️“

“I’m always hungry to try new burger spots and this definitely hits the spot. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries and it DID NOT disappoint. The place is clean and customer service is great all around. Highly recommend to any burger lover out there!“

“This place has been in service for years. You just pull into a parking spot and they will come outside to your car and bring your food and take your order it's like old-school diner I love it.As you all know I am not big on meet I'm a vegetarian so if you like to have hot dogs or hamburgers you get that from here. My brother was in town from Florida and he wanted to stop here for lunch so I just had some french fries.But the notorious for their root beer shake“

“This helpful man, Bryan helped me and gave me very good service! He was always there as we need him and is sharp, friendly and good care of us! He also made sure to touch down on our table beshoy which is the best manager with great hospitality. I had a wonderful experience!“

“By far the best service ive had in a long time everyone went above and beyond and the food was amazing..“

“The food was excellent. Went for a work Christmas luncheon. Service, no one really checked on our table. Had to yell across the restaurant to the bar to get a refill on drinks. That's the only complaint aside from that was very satisfied.“

“Overall a very good experience. Good was for the most part well prepared and presented. Calamari was had too many peppers which made it a little bit difficult to eat but still was good. Short ribs was a good but overpriced with just one piece of meat. Still would recommend the place without reservation.“

“This Applebee's is clean, they have awesome service great attitude and their food tasted amazing the desert was to die for and atmosphere of the place deserves more than 5 stars the setting is calm and collected, Rita was AMAZING, she was polite, she was quick and talkative and their manager John answered a lot questions he was also very polite to the group I LOVE YOU APPLEBEES GRILL & BAR“

“Perfection in the food industry can only be perfected after some time has passed. But for over 75 years, the White Diamond Diner in Clark, NJ has exemplified itself for perfection. Let's just say that Ray Collins made the great decision to move to Clark to partner with his nephew to open and work in the current location. Without his contributions, the Clark White Diamond may not be as well known today. Granted, the diner has a stored history, starting with the Cox Family. Where they were opening up some of the original White Diamonds. The idea that the diner chain was Southern run and meant to be moved into NY is impressive. Alone that speaks that early on, these diners were trying to replicate the equivalent of a fast food restaurant today. Quick service, good food, and reasonable prices. All factors alone would drive people from miles away to visit this diner. So 75+ years later, this diner stands as great as it was before. Upon interviewing the owner of the Clark WD, I was pleased and excited to receive all of this information. I have also been told that most cooking is done with experience originated, but they do provide training for younger employees. There is a reason why this diner has been deemed one of the friendliest and family atmosphere diners. All because the owners were great to work with, and honored that a report was being written about their diner. If anyone is visiting or wants to write reports on good diners, I highly recommend this one. There is almost nothing bad to say about this diner. I have visited this diner twice already, and have nothing bad to say about this diner. Upon arriving, you pick your own seats. Though the space is small, there is plenty of seating. Whether it would be the 10-12 bar stools or five booth seats, there is always a place to sit. Within 5 minutes, you are ordering your meal. The best thing about this diner is, the waiters get to know your faces, where they will memorize your order after you state it. So that they are able to track you down after it is down cooking. All this happens within 10 minutes of you actually being in the diner. Soon the food arrives. I have ordered the double bacon burger the last couple of times that I have gone. It is one of the best burgers that I have ever gotten from a diner. The moment you bite into the burger, you are met with a rush of flavors, plus the test of a freshly cooked burger. The soft chewing of the patty with seasoning melts in your mouth. Eager to take another bite, then another one. Soon you realize that you finished the burger in a matter of minutes. But you don't realize that, due to the flavor rush that you taste. Don't get me started on the bacon. It is cooked to perfection. Grease runs off the bacon as you bite into it. With each crunch of a crispy slice of bacon, it adds to the taste of the burger as mentioned earlier. Overall, it is never expensive to get food from this location. I highly recommend visiting this diner at some point, and getting the burger that I mentioned, it is well worth it!“

“Absolutely delicious Italian pizza, pasta and entrees! There are so many pizza choices, my favorites were the grilled chicken Caesar salad and the Grandma with a sesame seed crust, soooo yummy! We shared the seafood salad with large shrimp, mussels and tender calamari and the beautiful cold cut platter. The pasta with bolognese was fabulous and so was the chicken francese. They even have gluten free pizza and pasta. Finish with cappuccino and the oh so fresh cannolis and zeppoles. Bring the entire clan as the prices are very reasonable at this wonderful family friendly restaurant.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pasta and pizzaKid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly“

“Hangry Joes was pretty solid. We ordered the chicken sandwich with waffle fries. A waffle with tenders and Korean flavored chicken nuggets. The sandwich was good. A hefty portion of chicken breast with all the fixings. The tenders were very good also. Came with a powdered sugar sprinkled waffle. They could work on the waffle a lil bit. I do not care for that "cakey" kinda batter. It has to be light n fluffy and more crispier. The chicken nuggets were pretty good also. Great Korean seasoning on them. It's counter service. Pickup and order at counter. The place was pretty spacious from inside. Plenty of seating and tables. I enjoyed the jams that were playing that day.“

“A great experience in food. The hamburguer is really tasty, they know how to melt and to do it and the fries is amazing, they are well cooked and crackles when you bite.The place is not too much comfy, they do not care of it, it seems that was been very older and used so far.But, if you like a good Hamburguer and don’t matter about the place, maybe you gonna go there.“

“Had a wonderful time with the family at Charlie Brown’s. What can one say about their amazing farm to table salad bar? Definitely the best in NJ! We miss their other locations which were a bit closer. Our server Ania was amazing and attentive with our every need. Plenty of parking and it can get busy on the weekends ??????Update: They kindly accommodated us, even though we didn’t have a reservation for Mother’s Day. Thank you! ?“

“I had the pleasure of attending a fundraiser today for #camystrong. The food was amazing, the service was excellent and I learned that 100% of proceeds will benefit my little 6 year old friend. Well done Johnny Napkins, well done. Definitely worth the 1 hour drive to get there for this sweet girl. I will have to make another trip up to support the restaurant this time.“

“I love eating at The Committed Pig when I come out towards Summit. The food is delicious and well cooked, and the waitresses are attentive, and kind. Kelee, especially, is an amazing server. If you are out this way, this place is a must-try!“
