“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.”

Cuban • $
“This is my second time here and I love it here, as I love Cuban food! They're pollo encebolla is marinated & cooked very well and the portions served here is satisfying. The added plus is that both their chicken and meat empanadas are seasoned so well, and not greasy-- the best empanadas I've had in a very very long time! I'll always come back!Parking: The parking lot for the restaurant is the driveway to the right. It's not a huge lot. But it's free and you don't have to double park on the street.”

Chicken • $
“I had to come to a chicken shack when I got to Jersey, IYKYK. I read all the reviews about how good the pizza and chicken were and I had to try because it was close to my hotel plus they are open 24 hours. The cheese pizza was DELICIOUS. the cheese was sliding off with a nice crisp crust, just how I love it. The fried chicken was EVEN BETTER. Just fried to perfection. With perfectly seasoned French fries. Mannnnnn, oh man. It took about 10 minutes, there were tables inside. They all had soda, juice and ice cream for order. You have different options for pizza and chicken options.”

The ambiance is stunning and there's an ample amount of parking available. One of thing that standouts about City Tavern is the attentive service by the owner. She's always present and makes sure that the service is top-notch. You can see the owner and staff, they genuinely care about their customers' satisfaction. This place is a gem that never disappoints us. Whether you're looking for a memorable dining experience or simply craving exceptional food, this is the place to go!”

Mexican • $
“I've been coming here for years now so I thought I'd update my review. The food is just as good, only I changed my usual order from the carne asada wet burrito to the grilled shrimp wet burrito and it's -chef's kiss- the best. It's a locally owned business so they're very friendly and very generous when giving salsas. I once was picking up an order and as I was walking up to the window, the young man recognized me and reminded me they'd be closed the following week for renovations, so that goes to show how much they remember you and value your service.”
Mexican
“I like the chicken, it's very crispy and the owner always changes the new oil, it's nothing to see others like to continue cooking with burnt oil and then the food falls heavy, the truth is ? I love it, I recommend it”

Told us what was in each bag and how many. EXCELLENT work ethic! The food was hot and as good as we remembered. The entire WC team was outstanding on this order. We will return for more.

“Straight to the point food joint with a lot of of food items to offer. Craving sandwiches to arepas and patacons, all the way to the sweet tooth lovers opting for one of their shakes. I've never had an arepa before so I didn't know what to expect. I got the arepa cubana and omg, it was SO good. It was pretty big too, so I could only eat half at the time and happily saved my other half for later in the day. The arepa wasn't oily/greasy and had the right amount of crunch to it. I'm so glad they didn't overdo it with their house made sauce because it would have left a soggy mess. Notes: Street parking only”

“First impressions, we were greeted with a warm welcome the moment we walked in the door. The menu has so many options there is something for everyone. One great cup of coffee to start. Service with a smile from the owner to the wait staff. Atmosphere is warm and welcoming everyone is friends here and seems like there are no strangers here. Now let’s talk food. We chose from the breakfast menu and let me tell you right now WOW. We ate like kings and queens at little cost. We definitely did not walk away hungry. I am a grits fan and they came out perfect, not to wet and not to dry just right. So from the Wilson family we say thank you Seaport Diner for such a wonderful experience. If we are ever in the area again we will 100% be returning.”

“When I first came here, I didn’t know what to expect. I think the guy at the register was Dominican I asked him to put me on the top seller. He didn’t really do that. He just pointed me to the menu. I didn’t know what to expect my first time, but I tried pancakes with eggs toast because I wasn’t sure if the sausage was pork. A cheese and a beef empanada and a egg and cheese sandwich. “But I was blown away by the flavor. The food was so fresh.” 5 star for the food. I was expecting some more eggs with my pancakes, platter, and toast, but the food is good.”

Salvadoran • $$
“I can be a cynic. There are dishes and drinks that just require authenticity from their creators. Think sushi in a Cuban joint. Yes, it is a bias but I have been corrected.El Salvadoreño Restaurant in Elizabeth NJ serves a delicious cosmopolitan that would rival any proper bar in the tri-state area. Their pupusas are equally elevated by an ever so slightly toastiness on the outside and the sensual, melted decadence of cheese and beans in the middle. Their salsa and curtido are homemade, of course they are, and are home-country legit.It is heartwarming to see families enjoy an evening of great drinks and food while trying out the table-side karaoke that arrives and insists you take a turn at one of the mariachi classics.”

“I don't usually write reviews for fast food, but my experience at this Burger King was exceptional. I mistakenly placed my onion ring order at another location, and the cashier kindly gave it to me free of charge.

“I had a wonderful experience at Wendy's in Elizabeth on North Ave. The worker Gigi was so sweet and pleasant and got my order correct. No mistakes. I noticed some other young girls just standing around, looking at me, and never completed my order, and that's when Gigi stepped in and helped me immediately. Next time I visit Wendy and if those girls are standing around again, I will give them a piece of my mind. Thank you Gigi for all ur help and kindness!”

“Went here with my coworkers. After booking, they texted me and told me there was deposit needed because the group was 8+. I'm not sure why they don't tell open table this. They were able to send me a link to put the deposit down. There were items not on the menu that people were ordering and it looked delicious! The spacing for 11 people for a paint and sip was just not appropriate. Drinks had A LOT of ice in them. Shots were $10 which is quite ridiculous. The server didn't really check on us. We had to call her over. We still had fun. DJ was amazing with variety of music”

The sauces for the chicken is home made exactly how it supposed to be made and the fries are fresh cut. I would drive almost 2 hours just to eat chicken at this place.”

“We had a good time, but be prepared to brush up on your spanish (or ask google translate for help)- the staff speaks mostly spanish. We luckily had spanish speakers in our group that helped us out.Our group got the pollo a la brasa (not pictured) and I learned that mixing the green sauce with ketchup is very tasty, but the garlic shrimp (camarones al ajillo) had my favorite taste/sauce. I personally liked the rice a lot but the french fries were also very nice.”

“The best Dominican chicken and fried foodI ordered a fried food, everything was good, I would have only liked a little more wasakaka, but the pica pollo was very good and had the same incredible Dominican flavor ? recommended”

“My girlfriend introduced me to this place about a year ago as she is a resident in the area. I have enjoyed several types of Peruvian cuisine before I tried El Punto. When we went there to have dinner, I had the Jalea and Mariscos (fish), and I was blown away. The Jalea itself was my favorite; fresh fish and fresh ingredients got me “hooked.” Since then, we had been back there a few more times for dinner, and the dining experience is still excellent. The place is cozy, clean, and the staff is very friendly. I look forward to returning again soon. I would definitely recommend El Punto Marino to anyone who loves Peruvian cuisine; especially the seafood. Thanks for the great experience.”

“I can be a cynic. There are dishes and drinks that just require authenticity from their creators. Think sushi in a Cuban joint. Yes, it is a bias but I have been corrected.El Salvadoreño Restaurant in Elizabeth NJ serves a delicious cosmopolitan that would rival any proper bar in the tri-state area. Their pupusas are equally elevated by an ever so slightly toastiness on the outside and the sensual, melted decadence of cheese and beans in the middle. Their salsa and curtido are homemade, of course they are, and are home-country legit.It is heartwarming to see families enjoy an evening of great drinks and food while trying out the table-side karaoke that arrives and insists you take a turn at one of the mariachi classics.”

“It’s in the food court on the 2nd floor. Food was really good, I was so hungry and this was both tasty and filling. It wasn’t breathtakingly amazing but it wasn’t bad either. Just really good. The drinks are expensive like a bottle of water was $3. The food wasn’t cheap either, an average meal was $12 but it satisfied me. Also they have white rice it’s just not on display, you only need to ask.?”

“I have been going here since it has opened,and the food is good prepared as you like it. The personnel are beautiful people with whom I have seen feed those who may not have the money to eat on several occasions which every community business person should have a heart to do. It is a community-based business which I would not change for anything or anyone!!!”

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.”

“I had to come to a chicken shack when I got to Jersey, IYKYK. I read all the reviews about how good the pizza and chicken were and I had to try because it was close to my hotel plus they are open 24 hours. The cheese pizza was DELICIOUS. the cheese was sliding off with a nice crisp crust, just how I love it. The fried chicken was EVEN BETTER. Just fried to perfection. With perfectly seasoned French fries. Mannnnnn, oh man. It took about 10 minutes, there were tables inside. They all had soda, juice and ice cream for order. You have different options for pizza and chicken options.”

“This is my second time here and I love it here, as I love Cuban food! They're pollo encebolla is marinated & cooked very well and the portions served here is satisfying. The added plus is that both their chicken and meat empanadas are seasoned so well, and not greasy-- the best empanadas I've had in a very very long time! I'll always come back!Parking: The parking lot for the restaurant is the driveway to the right. It's not a huge lot. But it's free and you don't have to double park on the street.”

“First impressions, we were greeted with a warm welcome the moment we walked in the door. The menu has so many options there is something for everyone. One great cup of coffee to start. Service with a smile from the owner to the wait staff. Atmosphere is warm and welcoming everyone is friends here and seems like there are no strangers here. Now let’s talk food. We chose from the breakfast menu and let me tell you right now WOW. We ate like kings and queens at little cost. We definitely did not walk away hungry. I am a grits fan and they came out perfect, not to wet and not to dry just right. So from the Wilson family we say thank you Seaport Diner for such a wonderful experience. If we are ever in the area again we will 100% be returning.”
