“Had the salmon. Was tasty. Excellent presentation of shrimp cocktail, looked delicious. My friend ordered and said it was very good. Maybe I should have ordered a steak, I wasn't overly impressed with the salmon, especially with the prices. Brussel sprouts were very tasty.“

“We went to dine with this rag tag restaurant and the experience was awful. The waitress had no teeth and asked my son for his? At first we thought “hey maybe they are joking” then all of a sudden. They lady grabbed his front bicuspid. Needless to say - at that point we were concerned. Because we had a long day we were still hungry. So we stuck around. The next thing you know. The toothless individual brought another toothless friend and tried to get my tooth as well. At that point. We know. Time to get out of here. We were cooked. Unlike the food at this gross place.“

I got the house salad and their delicious fries which are my favorite. I also was able to get a nonalcoholic margarita which was tasty and made my dinning experience much better. Overall this is one of my favorite places to eat, I'll definitely be back.“

“Had brunch here with friends. Very cute place, and the food and drinks were tasty. The server was nice as well. Main reason for not 5 stars is that the tables are small (so takes some shuffling of plates if in a group) and are so close you overhear the conversations of every table around you, and they hear yours. Not ideal for a gossipy girl brunch or flirty dates, but otherwise we really enjoyed the experience. Would eat here again for sure - I had the scallops and they were perfectly seasoned and cooked just right.“

“This could be a top of the line hoagie. I went with the Ham/Salami/Provolone. All it needs is a little more meat. The flavors are there. The bread is pretty good, being fresh with a slight crunch. But they are skimpy with the meat portions. A little more will go a long way. I would definitely go back, though.“

Iron & Ivy American • $$

Customers` Favorites

Cobb Salad

“Hotel restaurants are usually culinary punching bags offering unimaginative cuisine to a captive audience at eye-popping prices. If that's your perspective than I'll feast on your prejudice at Iron and Ivy, an under the radar gem at the Forrestal Marriott in Princeton.A very low-key garden setting offers you a chance to converse using your inside voice while grazing through a menu running the gamut from burgers to a very tasty steak -- all while avoiding the restaurant scrum in downtown Princeton replete with time limits and credit card surcharges.Iron and Ivy is a nice change of pace and a secret that I have misgivings about revealing. A relaxing five stars.“

“I was nervous when we arrived at 6:45 on a Friday and were the only ones seated in the dining room. But I guess we were just early. By 7:15 the dining room was filling up and it was full when we left. The food was very good and the service very attentive (a bit too attentive for my liking). This was our first time there since it opened and we will definitely be back. They sell Old York Cellars wine by the bottle (Ringoes, NJ), but are also BYOB.“
