50 Best American Restaurants near Westfield

“We had the best time. Isa was the best waitress. So polite and informative. We just stopped in for lunch and had the most unexpected amazing experience. The service was so professional and so amazing, and I can’t say enough about Isa. The food was amazing. It was an expensive lunch but so so worth it for the quality, experience, and environment. We had the tuna tartare, the prime rib wrap and the crème brûlée with some of their seasonal cocktails. It was the best!“

“Your formal white tablecloth steak dining experience with decent menu selection and reasonable prices for a lunch outing!Service was great, my server was patient and quick to resolve a slight mixup of steak temperatures (Mistakes happen I was fine with it but just wanted to provide polite feedback).Steak was tasty with balanced seasoning.The shrimp crostini dish was okay- I was expecting the typical type of crostini bread and thought the proportions of artichokes vs tomato's vs goat cheese vs two large shrimp were slightly off.Atmosphere was intimately traditional with a decent bar area, the lighting during the day could be better to give it that extra oomf.“

“Solid Poke place. Food is fresh & customizable with a decent variety that you might expect for a Poke place including a few extras (Mango, Seaweed salad, and plenty of sauces). Service is fast and accurate to your order. I've never had an ingredient missing nor any complaints of less than expected. The store itself is barebones minimal decoration with some wall attached table tops to eat at and not much else but I hardly eat in and prefer takeout.One minor issue is the 16 Oz bowls they use can be quite difficult to separate the lid from the bowl. It's not normally a prolonged problem with some work but I've had a number of instances with older adults not being able to remove the lid because of the lack of any way to grip the lid or bowl separately. This could be remedied with a simple tab on the lid and bowl but they just don't have it.Either case, Orgreen is a solid take out place with decent ingredients and nice variety. Service is fast & accurate. Each meal will fill you up nicely.“

“The food here is great, I really enjoy their coffees as well. Not to mention for the price, you’re getting what’s its worth. My favorite though has to be the goat cheese sandwhich they have. Ultimately I wasn’t a fan of goat cheese until I tried that sandwhich . The customer service here has always been great, can’t wait to stop by again!“

“Little hidden BRUNCH gem of Westfield....Loved that they offer Free coffee while waiting (I had no idea I could've called in sooner).....Also, I wish they had better/more options for Vegeterians.Overall, it was a genuine Brunch Breakfast place. Would go back again !!“

“We recently catered an event and were delighted with the quality and quantity of food. We had tea service with a variety of finger sandwiches, scones, frittatas and pastries delivered on time and beautifully arranged in trays. The teas were individually packed and had a good variety.Thank to the owner who dropped by with the food . They are a to go place for high tea??“

“Just ate here few hours ago had an amazing burger and sweet potatoe fries!! The ugly side is I had a waitress that was a young Spanish girl with glasses which she took them off thinking I wouldn’t notice her face please run those cameras back and watch the whole thing to the manager! She did not give me my $4 change back which I wanted to leave a few more singles to add on for her tip but seems like she thought she could play with me maybe because I look “young” I’m in my 30s and from Newark so I did keep my cool and said something to the host which he was very nice!!! Hope the manager sees this and understands I love the food but the service was terrible and if it was up to me I would of went off on that little girl but to want to rob someone of $4 shows how broke and low life she was to do that! WATCH YOUR REGISTER to the OWNER and staff.. it’s the principle of $4 especially I grew up as a chefs daughter I seen it all in the food industry ? I will be returning whenever I’m in the area again for the great burgers hope to have a new waitress serve me next time!“

“Do not get a wrap with chicken, because they put hardly any in it. Total rip off.Update: The company did refund the price of the chicken. They handled it well. Thank you Salad House.... the wrap was tasty even without the chicken. thanks again for the great customer service.“

“4.5. Nice cocktail menu, food is always good, the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. They will take special requests if they are able to. It is not a Michelin star restaurant, if that is what you are looking for, but it is a hidden gem in Westfield. The food is always fresh and there is an eclectic feel of the restaurant itself. My wife and I have dined here several times without a complaint and the staff is always friendly. It is our go-to as a last minute option as it seems to be underrated and a reservation is usually not needed. The other plus is that they are open slightly later than other establishments in the area.“

“We had a reservation and we were promptly seated. Our server was very nice and the food delicious. Again everything from the alcoholic beverages and entrees to the desserts. One disappointment was that I ordered the shrimp and grits which was supposed to come with bacon and chorizo, I asked for no chorizo and the dish came without both bacon and chorizo. The server was busy which I understand and wasn’t able to check on us while eating , so I ate most of my meal and alerted him at the end before we all ordered dessert. He apologized and said he would find out what went wrong but never followed up. I would never expect the meal to be free or anything like that, but maybe a simple free dessert or ten percent off the wrong prepared entree would be a nice gesture. Small differences matter especially when our bill was quite high. I’m sure we would return but when you are paying a premium for a good experience, something could have been done. Other than the small issue , a good experience.“

“Garlic Rose is our family's place for special dinners! The food is always fresh and delicious. We usually get Sangria by the pitcher, its sooo good! They make you feel like family at their house for dinner. The wait staff are very professional and well versed in the menu. I highly recommend The Garlic Rose.“

“Great food! Moreover, it is always good to be where I am treated as though I am at home.“

“Went at Water & Wine Restaurant for the first time last night and loved the food and atmosphere. I felt like I was Italy while dining. Went there with the family; I had ordered the Truffle Fries for the table, House-Made Sheep's Milk Ricotta Gnocchi for myself for an appetizer (it was a special they were offering), then for the entre I had the filet mignon. The ricotta with the gnocchi was so amazing that this dish should be an entre and not an appetizer. The filet was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Highly recommend dining here!! Cheers!!“

“We have dined at Chef Fredy's on several occasions. It never disappoints. From Beginning to end, we have always enjoyed our experience. The service is wonderful as is the food and food presentation. In addition, there is always such a welcoming feeling when you dine at Chef Fredy's. This is truly one of my favorite restaurants and we will definitely be back.“

“Fantastic drinks and delicious food. I've loved every dish I've ordered and appreciate the vegetarian friendly options. I highly recommend their comfortably numb cocktail. It's my go to place for a girls night.P.S. Please bring back the beet and burrata sourdough!“

“Got even better , if thats possible!!!!Great place in Chatham for a chicken sandwich, ranking in my top 3 places. The wings are off the hook as well. Get the fries with the aieilo and chic too. A must try for a fast food option you won't be disappointed. Service is above average and they have a great disposition as well. Makes eating there a more than pleasant experience.Another great time !!!!!!!“

“I've only known Namkeem restaurant for about 1 month now and I've been there at least 10 times. Food and customer service is amazing! Would totally recommend!!Kid-friendliness: Its a family friendly spotWheelchair accessibility: There's are no stairs“

“I've been here so many times as it's such a convenient spot with late hours and great service. Every meal is prepared with care and precision, every server I've had (no two the same) have been efficient, courteous and professional. The drinks are great as well. Selection is quite varied. It's a festive place so it gets loud but as expected when people are enjoying food, drink and friends.“

“Wonderful experience. We had no idea what to order, so Modupe (the owner) surprised us. I only wish I could have eaten more! My daughter who can be picky was so happy with her shrimp and fries that she drew Modupe a picture. Highly recommend!!“

“I try to go to this Diner about 1-2 times a week. It's good food and they're quick. Sometimes I'll just pick up a breakfast sandwich or I'll sit down for one of their platters!Their Corned Beef Hash Platter is one of my regular dishes!I have been there for lunch, but not as much as I would have liked to.“

“Great service every time I’ve been there“

“Stopped in to check out the place for a private party. Had a quick fancy drink, that was amazingly delicious! The owner is very friendly and the place is as clean as a whistle! Definitely coming back hereParking: Had to circle around a few times to find parking. Someone left so I was lucky!“

“I absolutely love this place! From the food, atmosphere and customer service. I have used them twice to cater my baby shower and a recent birthday party. Zinna the owner is super sweet, professional, punctual. She truly wants the customer to be happy and checks in with you. My family and friends loved the food and I will always use them in the future.“

“Very nice place and an amazing food. The NY strip is really delicious, soft and creamy when you take at medium cook.The atmosphere is OK, but nothing impressive to make you and your family too excited.The staff serves very well with some kind of emphaty, but not happy as you want to be.Its not a chepeast price in Town, so, if you are getting there, there is a lot of types of food on the menu.“

“Reconnected with a childhood friend and the first time vist for the both of us. It was a random choice, but a GREAT one!The ambiance caught my attention as soon as I entered. I liked the layout of the establishment and the wonderful ENERGY of the staff who greeted us.Our server was TAMMY and she was FANTASTIC!! GREAT ENERGY, SMILE, and SERVICE!!Our breakfast was wonderful as well.Highly recommended and I will definitely return when back in the area.TWO THUMBS UP! ?????“

“Hadn't eaten here in a little while. We really enjoyed the food and drink quite a bit! I love eating small plates and getting different tastes. Our favorites were the chicken and waffles, pulled pork sliders, shrimp and chicken specialty tacos and we ordered truffle fries (off menu) that were delicious. My boys don't love vegetables but they even liked the shaved Brussel sprout salad! We will definitely be back.“

“This honestly was some great food. I’m not gonna lie I be iffy about New Jersey food being from NYC but tbh this was bussin. If you know you know. I’m definitely coming back with my friends, because this is where it’s at! Loved itttt.“

“The hubby and I tried Tommy’s in Carteret this afternoon. Homemade chili, no beans. Nice, smooth bit of heat. It was good. I believe they are using a Sabrett hot dog. The onion rings were EXCELLENT! Everything was fresh and very tasty. This family has been selling hot dogs in the Carteret and Rahway area since the very early 1960’s. Jimmy who is the son of the original owner, Tommy was very friendly. He couldn’t have been happier to explain his menu offerings to us, and partake in some friendly conversation. Four hot dogs with two toppings on each, an order of onion rings, and a Diet Coke was $19. There are a couple of outdoor tables to sit at, or a no frills trailer to sit in. It’s not a fancy place, but we weren’t there for fancy. We were there for some good dawgs, and we got them. We will definitely be back for more, and to try the freshly made burgers and cheesesteaks.?“

“Definitely a five star experience!!! We arrived just before happy hour ended (4-5:30) and they were kind enough to place a quick order of oysters!!! They were super fresh and delicious... favs were west coast (sorry NJ). Next, came the Parker rolls!!! Probably my favorite part of the meal, but then again, who doesn't like homemade, freshly baked rolls with buttered top and a touch of salt!!! Because everything looked so good, we opted for a bunch of other appys to start! The New Zealand angus beef bites were served with horseradish aioli and a Parker roll, the halloumi cheese was accompanied by orange slices, prosciutto, radicchio and dehydrated olives. The octopus was spectacular... crispy with romanesco sauce, fried chickpeas, cilantro and paprika breadcrumbs. Of course, we had to also try the OHS mussel pot... with chorizo, saffron, garlic cream, sun dried tomatoes... and an herbed garlic roll on top!!! LOVED THEM ALL! It's not often that so many different, but complimentary flavors are presented in each dish!!! We could have stopped our meals there and would have been pleasantly satisfied and full! Next, we chose a couple of the sirloin sandwiches with fries, and the squid ink pasta with Calabrian chili and Meyer lemon breadcrumbs!!! All was very good. The evening was finished with 3 of their delicious desserts... the lemon meringue tart was the perfect sweet with a pucker. The molten dark chocolate cake was decadent. And the trio of gelatos were each so uniquely flavorful and delicious! Wow!!! Given that 100 steps is a BYOB, it makes everything even more affordable! We had spectacular service in this beautiful restaurant with amazing food! It was quite a special evening!“

“Delicious food , great hot dogs and sausage.“

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

“Sat at the bar for dinner. Everything was great. They have a great selection of their own beers all of which are excellent. The Rhode Island fried calamari was nicely battered and the jalapeños and spicy sauce gave them a nice heat. Our entrees, the Goffle Farm chicken (menu item) and the brisket (a special) came from their outdoor smoker and both were outstanding. The raspberry sorbet was also great. The portions were huge and the accompanying sides were very good. The three bartenders provided amazing service. Erin makes an outstanding espresso martini. Overall, a great experience.“

“I got a tuna Poké bowl. It was so delicious and healthy and exactly as I pictured from the description. Our waitress was very sweet and understanding of our table that had many people that have not seen each other in a while, so it’s good that she had a lot of patience!Overall, the food was delicious. The ginger toffee cake is definitely a recommendation because of sweet tones, ginger, surprises and sticky texture. I loved it.The pricing is a little bit expensive but it’s definitely worth it. I had leftovers for two days and definitely had a great time. The atmosphere was beautiful.I had some of my mom stick, which was the New York strip the lobster butter and the potato that was so crispy. I couldn’t imagine how they cooked that it was amazing.“

“My family and I had an amazing brunch experience at Agricola! We were a group of 10 people and were seated promptly. Our server, Elvis, was absolutely fantastic - attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. The food and drinks were delicious across the board, with everyone in our group loving their orders. Standout dishes included the heavenly cinnamon roll, creamy burrata, flavorful mushroom pizza, indulgent carrot cake pancakes, and perfectly cooked flank steak & eggs. The ambiance was great for a relaxed Saturday brunch, and the portions were generous without sacrificing quality. Highly recommended for groups looking for a memorable brunch experience!“

“As a special treat for my visit “back home” 3 friends and I made reservations for lunch before the show. It wasn’t until we were seated that I realized there was nothing on the menu that met my Plant based dietary needs. I asked our server what she would suggest. She returned with several options for each course. When our meals were served we were all delighted with our choices. Everything was beautifully presented, delicious, and more than satisfying. My plant-based meal was high quality, full of flavor and texture and I would highly recommend my meal to anyone, even if they didn’t normally follow a plant based diet normally. It was That Good. And to top it off, the Chef came to our table to make sure we were all satisfied with our choices. I was More than satisfied and would highly recommend this restaurant for its food, atmosphere, quaint setting, and professional care for all guests!Dietary restrictions: All you need to do is ask your server and the chef will accommodate your needs with a high quality upscale meal choices!“

“Unique and delish. My amazing title person stopped by my office and brought there Homemade Potato Donuts called Spudnuts. The dulce de leche with sea salt was my favorite, but it’s super rich. The cinnamon sugar was a close second. You definitely can’t eat the whole donut since they are so large. They were warm and fresh when she brought them in. I have never been here but it’s definitely a fan favorite to most in Morristown. They also have breakfast sandwiches, pizza, burgers, gyro platter and a ton of other comfort foods. I haven’t stopped in, but based on the spundnuts I definitely will stop in soon!“

“I visited the Old Bermuda Inn for the first time. I have always noticed it from the 440 Staten Island and thought it was beautiful especially when it is lit up at night. I was excited to go. I parked my own car. The front of the venue was beautiful. The school I work for hosted an event on the first floor of over 300 people and over 200 baskets. Seating was comfortable, the tables were beautiful and I was near the bar. Our waitress was on point. I ate the salad with garlic bread, penne vodka and the salmon. My husband got the Chicken Marsala. Many of my coworkers had the stake. They all came with a veggie melody and roasted potatoes. All of the food was delicious. My ultimate favorite was the dessert. It was a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a brownie. I enjoyed it so much that I took the person next to me dessert too bc they were busy dancing and it was melting. The only thing I wished for was a cup of coffee.My family has two events planned there soon. I am looking forward to going back!“

“We have been there 2 times in the past week and a half and our meals were both 10/10. The chef definitely knows what he is doing. We love that the menu gets switched up to keep things interesting and the staff is all very friendly. Great job to owners and staff.“

“Whenever I go in I have such a wonderful experience! I love the Mimi’s fiesta bowl, and the strawberry mule! Jackie is a wonderful waitress and all of the managers always stop by and make sure we are enjoying everything!“
