10. Rossi's Bar and Grill

I have coming to Rossi's for years, going back to the old days in the Burg. Nothing much has changed except the current spot in Hamilton is much nicer. The food is still very good --- the Rossiburger is still the biggest and the best around. I like mine rare with Swiss and Grilled Onions and Mushrooms. Perfect. For a nice change I often go with a Chicken Parm Sandwich. And, of course, who doesn't like the Zucchini Sticks. Wash it all down with a Stella. Hmmm. Call me crazy, but I love their salads too.And big-time props for the wait staff who are always friendly and helpful. Thank you, We are so happy to know you enjoyed your experience and really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a 5 star review. It's the great customers like you that make this place so special. Thank you for your business we hope to see you again soon.

We had been wandering the Grounds at the end of July and just needed to cool off for a while. It was perfectly acceptable but average with choices of cold drinks, a few salads and sandwiches and dessers. I did not want to spend a lot of time in one of the other restaurants and this fulfilled our needs.

First, I have a hard time calling it a diner in NJ purely because it is not 24/7, though it would pass as a diner elsewhere.Overall, the food was disappointing. The cucumber salad was more of a pickle salad, and my meal was dry (despite having multiple layers where a littler moisture/juiciness could have been).The service was nice.

It may be me, but not much on the menu appeals to me. Wife and friend, relatives like it more. Service is always great. Drinks are very good. Decore is presented well. Bar always full. Frieindly atmosphere.Let me get this straight. We offer 40 items on our menu and nothing appealed to you? You gave a "3" star review because you didn't like 1 thing!! Yes, it's obviously you. On the contrary, all of the others in your group liked everything! Seriously sir why in the world didn't they write the review. Makes no sense.

This carnivore may have to convert! My first foray into vegan food was simply iamazing. Serving both vegan and non-vegan dishes, the restaurant has an upbeat casual vibe. My work friend (a devout vegan) and I both had the mushroom soup, which was rich in flavor. I opted for the lentil âmeatloafâ, served with sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes. I asked for salt and pepper, anticipating a need. I never touched it - the entire dish was perfectly seasoned and ridiculously flavorful. I canât imagine how they do it, but they raise the humble lentil to royal status. My friend had the vegan eggplant parmigiana stack. He explained to me that ground cashews were the base that replace the cheese. The presentation was gorgeous. We opted out of desert, only because our bellies were busting. A surprisingly nice touch was the serving of complimentary chocolate truffles that accompanied our check. Friends told me about this place more than a year ago. I could slap myself for not going sooner, but I will certainly enjoy making up for lost time.

5. CAFE seventy two

We were pleasantly surprised to walk right in and be seated at Café 72 for a Saturday lunch; our timing for once was good (and I think the local university had wrapped up its graduation). The server's greeting was warm and friendly and she did not try to rush us. I'll focus on the Ruben which I had for lunch; I've had their Rubens before but this one was exceptional....it was just very good. At first I ordered fries as the side and then remembered their house made chips; glad I remembered them...the perfect side for that sandwich and they too were very good. As mentioned earlier the server was very good; attentive but not intrusive; she ensured the drinks were filled w/o interrupting the conversation flow.

Wow - we sat at the bar and had a very nice meal with drinks recently. Great food as usual and our drinks were perfectly prepared. What damaged the night for us (and clearly others) was the large family there for Easter. Every adult was clearly intoxicated and beyond loud and obnoxious. No one said or did a thing about it. We were surprised and disappointed. Trust me - it was BADHello Thomas - I am sorry to hear of your recent experience here. I am a little confused about the 'Easter' reference. Please contact me at the Inn to discuss this further, as I was not aware of any situations like this that day. Thanks - Michele

My husband and I recently returned to this restaurant after about a year or so. We were impressed then but no longer. The menu is less interesting, more pizza than sandwiches. The house salad that came with my waffle grilled cheese sandwich was very wilted and the dressing had been sitting out. The waffle grilled cheese sandwich was very disappointing, fairly tasteless, soggy waffles. No reason to ret,frankly.

The weather was lovely so we elected to eat outside. We were a party of four and we each ordered different items. The butterfish, mahi mahi, short ribs and pasta with vodka sauce were all delicious. The only disappointment was the banana cream pie for my dessert.
