Was here for lunch with the husband after our wine tasting at their winery over the New Year weekend. Dated interior, but not unexpected for an Italian restaurant. Service was sloooooow, considering we were one of two tables there. We ordered chicken parm and south Philly burger. We had way better chicken parm at our local diners. Burger patty was ok, lettuce badly wilted, bread not evenly toasted, and the fries were too soggy for my liking. Took a while for our check to get back to us. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and I would not return (at least for lunch).

Bought a half dozen cupcakes on the celebration of their fifth anniversary. So many to choose from but the help was great with the decision making. Found some to be very sweet but all were fresh and delicious. Just a matter in finding the ones that will fit your taste. A good selection so not a problem.

Enjoyed a meal during happy hour that left us in disbelief - portions were perfect and prices can't be beat served alongside COLD drafts with a wide selection . We will defiantly be back - bartender was terrific!
Mussels in white sauce, calamari and chicken nachos were all enjoyed down to the last bite

The owner/manager was very rude after I notified them I was unaware of nuts in the brownie & I did not want it.. Her response was "oh well you should have asked before you ordered and you can not your money back. If you want something else you have to pay for it!" Then after I ordered something else the ice cream cone had hair in it. When I made another complaint the manger snatched the cone tossed the ice cream off the top kept the same cone and put new ice cream on top. After witnessing this I will never support them again. I feel as though the manager was racist towards me because of my race and religion.. She was not rude to any other customer. I watched her interact with other customers just as friendly as she could be.

I have always wanted to stop and try it
Well today was the day. Excellent service
I had their hot roast beef with provolone and fried onions. It came with chips and homemade horseradish. It was delicious
You can breakfast all day. Portions for that were large
An important note. THIS is CASH ONLY

Had dinner with friends on a Friday evening. This restaurant seems to do a steady business and we did not have to wait for a seat. Food was good, as was the service. Would return again.
7. Gourmet Restaurant - Renault Winery

Reviewed By MARY ELLEN N - CHERRY HILL
Pace yourself would be my recommendation here. So many wonderful things to try. Freshly made omelettes if you like, plus a fabulous selection of salads, such as the olive tapanade. Their stuffed pork with fruit was to die-for, but make sure you ask for the warm mushgroom gravy for it! Desserts are good. Saw a tag on a hot dish that it was bread pudding inside, and I salivated the whole meal... turned out it was apple cobbler. Downer. But the chocolate mousse was decadent. Definitely worth the trip.

If you are a person of color, DO NOT go!!! We walked in and they looked at us like we were aliens. Then the waitress (short, blonde hair in ponytail) walked by us at least 4 times without so much as a glance as she went to help people at tables on either side of us. The bartender looked over, caught my eye and quickly looked away. Sad because it's up the street from our house but hey, if you don't my money, I'll gladly spend it where people who look like me are welcomed. #HorribleService #NeverAgain #Crossroads #AVOID
9. Lower Bank Tavern

We stumbled upon this place on a lovely Sunday late afternoon while we were enjoying a hike and a scenic drive through the Pinelands. Pulling into the parking lot is an experience in itself. The tavern looks like a dive bar, complete with blaring Rock music (the classic kind, my favorite!) and several motorcycles parked all over.
Not to be deterred by the look from the outside, we meandered in to check and see if they served food. And they do! And it's delicious!!!
We sat outside at a picnic table, enjoying the lovely weather, the gorgeous pink and orange sunset and soaking up the local atmosphere. Our waitress, Denise, was incredibly friendly and hospitable. Taking time to explain some menu options and bringing a fresh bowl of cold water for our little poodle who was welcomed and pampered by the wait staff.
We enjoyed the chicken tenders, smothered burger and fries with cheese! All the food was fresh, hot and tasty!
This place is a real find! Don't be intimidated by the biker, dive bar atmosphere. Everyone here is SO nice and friendly. Can't wait to go back on our next pine barren journey.
10. Hime

This place almost looks deserted, but it was recommended by friends, so we tried it. Hime (HEE-may) has both Chinese and Japanese dishes. One friend had shrimp with walnuts, and she proclaimed it delicious. Another had sushi -- the California roll (which I tasted -- very good, with huge pieces of crab) and a good lo mein. I had chicken with string beans, with fresh beans and well prepared. They also have a salad bar, with that yummy gingery dressing -- the salad bar comes with the entrees. Also, you can order with white or brown rice. The portion size is generous, and the prices are very reasonable. For three people, for dinner, our check came to a little over $30, with tax. Next time we're in the area, I plan to return.
