Forget 'casual dining.' That's an industry term so out of touch with how consumers eat and drink today. For premium quality and style; fare that's at times familiar and other times adventurous and a laid-back modern setting, Houlihan's is a true original.
We havenât been to a Houlihanâs in ages. There were 12 of us. The food selections were great and the food was delicious. But the service was slow. We were there for two hours They seemed to be short staffed. We will go again and hopefully they willHave better service. Appreciate your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed our made-from-scratch menu options and invite you to email us directly at [email protected] if you would like to discuss your visit further. Thanks for your time. - Ag
We have been in business for more than 20 years. We make everything from scratch and are a family owned business. We hope you consider us for any occasion, from dessert after a family dinner to a big celebration.
This shop has the very best black and white cookies we have ever tasted! They are made with real frosting heaped on and very sweet. Their butter cookies are light and very buttery as their name implies. And such lovely cakes! Such lovely decorations as well.

A great place for breakfast- check out the specials since it includes coffee. Portions are generous and the staff is cheerful and courteous. It has a small town diner feel which is great. Short walk to the train station and Main Street. Remains a favorite feel good place for home style food.

The food here is tasty and fresh. The coffee is good too. Cute ambiance, reasonable prices, small parking lot in the back. Overall, a nice experience. The only drawback was the lack of staffing and service. Everything takes a long time. Estimate 2 hrs to have your meal.

Been eating here well over 50 years and honestly other than price increases over and over the subs taste exactly as they did from when I was 15 or younger. Always a good sub Bread fresh and deli meat average at best but still good and lettuce and tomato always fresh Every so often you need one of these sometimes a couple times a week

The Cheesecake Factory offers something for everyone featuring a wide variety of over 200 menu items prepared fresh to order each day, plus over 30 legendary varieties of the Finest Cheesecake.
We wrote a review on this Cheesecake Factory back in 2013 and thought it was time to refresh it.We are amazed that with the large menu and the hustle and bustle of this place that the food is consistently good.We eat here at least once a month and have never been disappointed, the waitstaff is friendly and attentive and the food is good.Start off with the warm bread basket and finish with a piece of cheesecake, my Wife and I share as a full slice is a bit much, the server always has the slice cut in half and served on individual places a very nice touch, oh and the coffee is good.Thank you so much for this review. We're very happy you enjoy dining with us! We look forward to seeing you back again soon to enjoy some more of our cheesecake!

Casual Fine Dining
"Hello. I know I don't have a reservation, but can you seat two at 6:30?" Metuchen Inn reply: "I don't have a table, because we have a wedding tonight, but you can have dinner at the bar." Not. We didn't have dinner at the bar. We barely had a drink at the bar. We nearly walked out without paying because we could not incent anyone to deliver and process our bill. The lone bar tender was ready to walk out because, apparently the wedding did not have open bar and she was besieged by wedding attendees looking for alcohol. I mean, how basis is this MI management?

After eating in another Seasons 52, decided to go here. Atmosphere was similar, didn't have to wait for a table.Food is such a subjective thing. Couldn't understand why the waiter didn't recommend certain dishes. Tried the lobster flatbread. Very little lobster, not as good as what I had before. Then I ordered the Greek salad. When I asked the waiter, he didn't seem to be enthusiastic about it. How could someone not like Greek Salad? Now I know why... too many chickpeas, very little cheese, and questionable dressing. The chickpeas were overbearing. I hate to write this, but for the price, I could have gone to a Greek diner and had a better Greek salad. Disappointed.I had to apologize to the waiter. He was right and knowledgeable. His service level was also very good.The best was the Shrimp and Grits. That tasted good and was consistent with what I had elsewhere. Maybe I'll just stick to that.My husband was happy with the salmon and salad.Desserts were also good. I was satisfied with about with 50% of the meal. Thus, the average rating. I would go back and hope that next time, it will be better.

We went or an early dinner and nobody was disappointed. The portion size was was enormous and the taste was fantastic. We ordered the Matzo-ball soup that easily feed four people. We also ordered the pastrami and corn beef sandwich. Both meats were hot and fresh. The flavor was exceptional. Wow what a meal. With the 32 ounce orange sherbet dry, it was a drink for the Gods.The restaurant has ample parking and seats hundreds of patrons. The atmosphere is a little dated like a Jewish deli with pleasant with NYC theme. The service is impeccable and very clean. If you are in the area or need a good meal just off the NJ Turnpike at exit 10 - stop by. You will not be disappointed.

Part adventure, part restaurant and wholly entertaining. The Rainforest Cafe is an exciting thrill for all ages. Wild times await in a decorative jungle with animatronics and a menu of delicious American and tropical fare.
We stopped by for the birthday party for the 8-year old. Kids had a lot of fun so the adults. Food was good and portion sizes decent... the service was pleasant and helpful... the only negative - it was loud;).
