Friends suggested this establishment, which, based on years ago experience of dining here would have said no, but it has been redone, they said, Well, the old lipstick on the pig trick inevitably is still a pig, so to speak. Had the fried chicken sandwich...two tiny pieces of chicken, barely any condiment, mushy tomato slices, dark green romaine sliver, fries that were happy to be unfrozen and on a plate, but not in my mouth; the Cobb salad, amazingly off...just a bunch of food items plopped on a plate, so looked ok from a presentation standpoint, but tasteless. Seriously, this place has been around for years, so I guess its convenient locale must compensate for its culinary experience. Lots of new spots in Princeton that I havenât tried, but if I had one lunch to give, wouldnât do it here.

Fantastic menu! Huge number of choices. Great lunch specials of half flatbread and soup. Amazing avocado toast and salads! Crazy cute desserts for three dollars were a steal! Sat at a booth and talked the afternoon away! Truly special food! Highly recommend! Hope to return soon!

A gastro-pub starts with the elements of a classic pub and then blends in gourmet food. RHI elevates these basic ingredients to a new level. The result is a casual-yet-refined atmosphere that welcomes craft beer aficionados, wine connoisseurs, foodies, an

This is a good local restaurant/pub with a dedicated following. I've eaten there numerous times over the years. One of these days I would love to try their famous burgers, BUT they refuse to stock gluten-free rolls in spite of wait staff telling me they get requests every day for GF rolls and have told management as such. Burgers don't taste the same without a roll, so I have yet to have one. Note to management: Shoprite is 1/2 mile down the road -- go buy a package of GF rolls for goodness sake.Lack of GF rolls aside, the food is tasty and the wait staff accommodating. They have salmon and other options for GF folks. The restaurant itself is VERY noisy inside, but there is a small patio outside that is pleasant and quieter. Heat lamps outside in the transition seasons would be a wonderful addition. There is optional free valet parking (Thurs-Sat, I think) for those who want it, but there is usually parking on the street for those who eschew valets.For beer enthusiasts, you'll love the selection. All in all, a good, solid local restaurant.

The good news - good appetizers and good prices on them on football days and nights, and for the most part, friendly service. The less good news - the rest of the menu is surprisingly pricey for what you get, and the crowd is, let's just say, loud and the closest thing you'll get to a redneck bar near Princeton. I wouldn't take kids there, at least not on football evenings. "Fans" have no qualms about shouting at the TV, and no one seems to say anything to them. If you like cheap snacks, go there.

This is a place no one can miss when visiting Princeton, NJ. In fact, I have been returning to Winberie's since 1988. This place represents classical American Food to me, the place is vibrant, right in front of the University's main entrance and in the heart of the city Palmer Square). This time though, we have had an unpleasant service experience, it was a rainy evening outside and we were looking for a cozy place to be. The bad service was a shocking surprise to me, because although the huge turnover of the restaurant the service is generally quite nice. I decided to share my disappointment through their website so I have dropped an e-mail to Mr. Cole (Area Manager) the same evening and the next morning I had a proper answer in my mailbox offering me the chance to talk further about the issue. The way Mr. Cole tackled the issue showed me his professionalism and interest in guest satisfaction and had erased completely my only bad service experience in 32 years. Good job Mr. Cole, you are an asset to the company. See you next time!

First off, what r those fries they make? Iâve never heard about âpommes annaâ before. They r freaking delicious!!! That was the highlight of our lunch.Apart from the sliders, everything we ordered was fantastic. My honey balsamic eggplant was out of this world! My hubby loved his buttermilk chicken sandwich and my friend enjoyed her steak frites (thatâs how we all tried the pommes anna). We also got hummus as an app. Delishh too!Beer was great, despite the fact that mine wasnât cold enough. I really liked this place. Would come back for sure.

One point of aggression that I found very frustrating is that we intentionally met at 5 PM to enjoy their reasonably priced happy hour and still we treating 9 guests to dinner with our table reservationâso they knew they would make their money from us. But the waiter refused to serve us the Happy Hour drink specials at our table and said it was for bar service only. We said okayâweâll order our 3 drinks at the bar but want to bring them to the table since we are hosting six guests and want to be at our table when they arrive. The waiter said that would not be allowed. If the drink is ordered at the bar it must be consumed at the bar, not taken to a dining table. So then he proceeded to talk my colleagues into expensive glasses of wine from the non-Happy Hour menu. In a spirit of priests, I waited until Happy Hour was over before ordering my full price wine. UGH!The food was okay. The tuna avocado martini smelled fishy and a few of our guests tried a bite but that appetizer went pretty much uneaten. The bread was a decent sourdough, but when the basket ran out no one refilled it. That said, my entree of beef short ribs was fantastic! Heavy with the mashed potatoes, but really tender, not fatty, and super flavorful. So a 2 for service and a 4 for foodâquality varied by what people ordered.

Service sucks, but what do you really expect with a place named Hillbilly Hall? It's in the middle of the woods and usually caters to locals and motorcyclists. It's a bar and restaurant. The food is very casual American bar food with some classic dishes. There's a pool tables you have to pay to play and a record machine.

In a cozy and quaint town of Hopewell exists a European bistro that quite frankly needs a whole bunch of renovation but still serves up some of the best Schnitzel and Goulash in the area. Susie who doesn't mind coming out from the kitchen and greeting her guests Both dishes were outstanding except for the Spaetzle which lacked character and umpf. the schnitzel was nicely crisp on the outside yet tender on the inside. The goulash was excellent but the portion for me was too smallTristen the bartender was so very accommodating after she warmed up to us.Overall, a great place to have a drink and a great East European dinner Thank you Susie
