Restaurants in Maplewood

“Been coming here for over 10 years. It's amazing how much it has grown and flourished. Chef Umberto, Mario, and Lorena are the ultimate hosts. The food is always top notch. This restaurant is very special.”

“Went as a last minute decision. I was so happy that we did. We started with the vegetable sampler platter. Our main courses were chicken vindaloo and mango curry chicken. The food and service were both exceptional. I would highly recommend the restaurant. Will definitely come back and bring the kids.”

“Food was so delicious and very fresh! The ingredients are high quality and the prices are not exorbitant like at our regular sushi place ( Fujiyama mama). They even gave us a free Canada dry. This is our new Sushi place.”

“The food here is amazing. It’s always nice coming in and being greeted by the owner staff. If you need good soul food, this is the place to get it!”

“I would definitely consider myself a regular. Love their sandwiches and bakery items. The best part about this restaurant is their amazing and friendly staff. Everyone is just so nice and willing to help/answer any questions you have. The bakery is very relaxing so you could definitely get some work done if that's your cup of tea. The only negative I must comment on is that their sandwiches sit under a heated lamp so their bagels can get a bit soggy. P.S. order online as soon as the bakery opens because they do sell out very quickly. Especially on the weekends!”

“Very beautiful place. Small and quaint and intimate. Love the entrance. Food was amazing. Tasted home made. The tiramisu was amazing. Staff was amazing. Very polite. Will definitely make the trip back here. Keep up the great work. They did wonderful! ♥️❤️”

“We stoped here for lunch on a Saturday, we ordered sandwiches, salads, rice balls and a pasta!! Everything was absolutely mouth watering! We love fresh, homemade foods, nothing commercial and Porta Rossi did not disappoint!! Highly recommend!!!!”

“Absolutely the best in town!”

“A very cute artsy vibe and very good food. I got a sausage, egg, and cheese wrap and was very pleased. The only drawback is they only serve drip coffee no lattes or hot chocolate. I would def return though.”

“I recently attended a group get-together with eight friends. We had a lovely time. Drinks, dinner, desert and hospitality were all great! We had a fun time and I highly recommend the restaurant!Parking: Large parking lot right next door.”

“Last night, I had the pleasure of trying Carne Asada for the first time, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The meat was perfectly seasoned, offering a harmonious blend of spices that tantalized my taste buds with every bite. The steak was grilled to absolute perfection, boasting a succulent, tender texture that melted in my mouth.The sides complemented the main dish beautifully, enhancing the flavors without overpowering them. Every component of the meal was prepared with meticulous care, clearly highlighting the chef's dedication to quality and flavor.The ambiance of the restaurant and the staff's attentive service only added to the overall exceptional dining experience. It was a meal to remember, and I can't recommend it highly enough. If you're a fan of flavorful, well-cooked meat, this Carne Asada is a must-try. A resounding five stars!”

“I’ve been coming to Ani Ramens for years. It is my favorite place to get ramen. The staff is always great and the ramen is spot on. Each location does things a little differently and Maplewood is my preferred location based on my on personal taste preferences. I always get the vegan ramen it is delicious. The edamame and cucumber appetizers are delicious as well and I recently tried the crispy tofu buns and am now a fan!”

“Great neighborhood restaurant with delicious ood, great drinks and live music during the summer months. Thanks for always taking care of us, Nick, Osiel and John!”

“Food is outstanding I've tried everything on the menu my fav is the mushroom taco.. the restaurant is extremely small has 2 small tables I guess it's primarily meant to order and go. Tte last time I was there they were playing reggae music and my food was piping hot and delish as usual”

“Loved the breads there. Great sandwiches. Pizza is good too. Service was a tad slow and forgot my coffee but overall loved the new ambience and atmosphere with the wooden modern feel. Good food for sure.”

“Able Baker is a local treasure. The baked goods are amazing. Gluten-free options are delicious. The best part of Able Baker is the staff. They are wonderful every time I stop by.”

“Superb customer service. Atmosphere is family friendly. Meghan the manager is an exceptional human. She understands her assignment ! The food came out relatively soon; but not soon enough for my daughter because we came in super hungry and my daughter must have had a very hungry monster in her belly because she began to tear from waiting. Unfortunately, the pizza came back a bit more brown than we'd like. They gracefully took it back for a new one. Meghan took notice of my daughter's face and immediately came and offered her a few slices while we waited for the new pie. Overall, we left happy, full and satisfied Thank you again Meghan for saving my daughter from her hungry belly!”

“The baked goods are amazing. Everything I tried has been extremely delicious, especially the banana bread and barbecue chicken pies. The people behind the counter are always extremely friendly and helpful. I love this bakery.”

“Awesome. Been here three times. Everything I have had has been amazing!”

“Hands down....absolutely wonderful!!!! I come all the way from Pa & Bklyn to pick up cupcakes.. The whole place is classy & friendly!!! Great job everyone!”

“Omelette with toast was on point! (Asked for green chillies in omelette - to be made Indian style!). Didn't disappoint. Home fries are a bit like Indian aalu sabji. Juices and smoothies are nice! ”

“Strolling through town a wanted a little snack to go with my healthy smoothie from earlier. I walked in and was warmly greeted by a cheerful guy. After checking out the menu, I asked him what his favorites were and he made all the tacos sound so delicious. I was kinda of leaning towards a bowl, but after hearing all the taco goodness I grabbed a Cajun shrimp taco to hold me over till later.Turns out the guy I was chatting with was the owner, Todd. Really great to interact with him, super passionate about this place.Service was fast, taco was $6ish, and it was really tasty. I should've grabbed a deal for three, but I'll be back to eat more another day. You should too!”

“Not sure if this is a mom and pop diner but I'll tell you this, the food is absolutely fire. I had the Meat lovers omelette and a side of the challah bread French toast and I don't think I've ever had French toast like this. It's so delicious. My date had a salad off the keto menu. They were attentive to her tree-nut allergies and the service was courteous and timely.”

“Extremely delicious ice cream! One clearly tastes and enjoys the very fresh ingredients ... and the staff is Awesome! Definitely worth visiting again and again and again ...”

“Park Wood Diner is the first restaurant my family visited when we started fencing in Maplewood. They have expanded their hours over the last year, which makes it incredibly convenient to pick up sandwiches for dinner after practice. We also eat here with friends on weekends, and the breakfast combination platter of pancakes, bacon, eggs and home fries is extremely popular.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options on the extremely large menuDietary restrictions: You can find a variety of options to fit different diets.Parking: There is a free parking lot around the corner from the main entrance.Kid-friendliness: Very, very kid friendly. There are large booths and a variety of seating areas.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp from the parking lot into the diner.”

“Amazing place, great Ice Cream, and lovely service, I highly suggest this place if you live in or near MapleWood! I can’t wait to come back here and try there Sundaes, oh, and if the owner of this place reads this, may God bless you and keep you, your Ice Cream is amazing! And big shout out to the very knowledgeable lady who helped me make my experience here great!Kid-friendliness: For all kids and parents alike”

“This is a place that could easily be missed, it's a workspace rental location, similar to wework, but they placed a small counter service in the lobby that serves Peet's which only happens to bet the greatest coffee in the world!!!! The Barista is a very friendly and talkative guy who makes it even more of a pleasant experience. They have some sandwiches and snacks and I do believe there will be cookies from a local baker coming there soon. You must go here”

“I adore this place so far. I had the sabich, eggplant, egg etc. Best most delish ever! Can't wait for the Westfield location to open!”

“This is the first place I've ever seen a Chicken Alfredo slice. And it did not disappoint. The plain slices were delicious. And the pepperoni sausage slice was great. It had a slight spice which made it stand out from other places I've had that from. I think maybe they use hot Italian sausage? Want to go back to try more of their food. This being the first time here I would definitely go back again.”

“Very rich everything! The chicken with slices was delicious! Freshly made slices and juicy chicken.To go, I ordered a simple baleada--aside from the fact that it was huge, the tortilla and the beans were delicious.Thank you so much!”

“Trattoria has the best pizza this side of New Jersey! My favorites are pepperoni and the Buffalo chicken pizza. Whenever I have pizza night, my first choice is Trattoria.”

“Update to my previous review. While it was certainly frustrating, the owner, Vinnie, called me several times afterwards to make things right. He apologized, took ownership, and was genuine. I couldn't ask for much more. I plan to order from them again given Vinnie's hands-on approach and personal touch. Their sandwiches were actually also very tasty (we got a mixed platter).”

“A night for drinks with my Daughter. Have driven past, wanted to visit. We sat at the bar and had a drink and appetizers; fries and calamari. I luv fries and was overly impressed with theirs, crispy and good taste, the calamari was well cooked and good as well. I don't normally drink gin, but decided on the Blackberry Royal because I wanted to try the St Germain. Deeellicius!!! Nice atmosphere I definitely will visit again”

“To be honest, the food is good. All places around here the prices went up, so I don't think it's a big deal.”

“I have eaten here a number of times over the years. It has good food at reasonable prices, which is hard to say about many of the restaurants in this area, these days. I had the mixed fajita the last time I was there, which I would order again. The restaurant has a lot of character and is nice and laid back.”

“The salads here are amazing! I like to try a different one everytime I go but I have to say that the fall salad and the Cobb salad are my favorites so far and the service here is also amazing!! Sebastian is usually my server and he’s the best!!”

“She was sweet and very welcoming. The food was HITTING!! I got the lobster and shrimp fettuccine, my friend got the fried chicken and Mac. We both loved our food!!!Accommodated to me coming in late and still gave us great service.”

“Perfect comfort food for me. I love this place. Adding duck sauce to the lo mein makes it absolutely perfect for me. They have great chicken dishes (I love their sesame chicken) and I can't recommend this place enough!!! It's what I crave whenever I just want classic Chinese takeout. Definitely try it out!”

“We have gone to St. James Gate each time we have traveled to Maplewood. When we walk through the curtain, we are transported to an Irish Pub in Dublin. They have food options for just about every palate. The service is hit-and-miss depending on the timing.”

“We go to, and order from here ....weekly!! All their dishes are consistently fresh and amazing! We recently dined in and tried some noodle soup entrees and they were delicious and filling. We also love the salmon teriyaki which comes with a huge side of sushi! And all the rolls are fresh and great. My Fuji never disappoints!”
