We enjoyed the breakfast buffet on a previous stay at the Crown Plaza. We were ready for some wine and supper and didn't want to drive, so...this was an easy choice. Succinctly: good service, clam chowder had lots of clams and too much celery, Caesar salad was ordinary, kale salad had creative elements that the dressing betrayed, lettuce wraps are best forgotten, Philly cheese steak was a very pleasant surprise, and the double chocolate mousse was over the top. The room is pleasant and the walls of windows look out on greenery and water. There are no bad tables. This is a hotel restaurant and better than most of the dwindling survivors of this ilk.

We love Buffalo Wings, they have the best wings around and the dry rub version in our opinion are the best. Service is quick and pleasant, the food comes out piping hot. Wings are served with carrots, celery and dip free of charge unlike the other famous Wings place. Several beers on draught are available, as well as spirits and sift drinks. Screens are ideally located so you can see what is on. They also have a table game service, just ask for a game device, where you can join others playing various games on the screens.

Grabbed a burger with co-workers during March Madness. Place was packed, found a place at the bar. Bartenders were a little frazzled, understandably, given the crowd. Lamb burger was quite good. Colleague had fish and chips which were excellent. Not cheap eats, but not overly expensive; portions are great. Would definitely go back.

Okay place to grab some drinks & appetizers. We reached just as they started happy hour and had half-price on quite a number of drinks and appetizers. We had the firecracker shrimp, chicken quesadillas, tostones, jibaritos, coconut shrimp & chicken wings. None of theM felt particularly Caribbean- all blend with little bite, but they had Tabasco sauce which helped. We were seated in the bar area and service was so-so. They took the initial order right away, but slowed down quite a bit for refills even though only 5-6 tables were occupied. Average experience.

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.

Itâs always a fun and relaxing time here. Their bar food far surpasses the norm plus they offer vegetarian/vegan options. Somehow their soft pretzel is the best pretzel you will ever have. Try it and see for yourself. Their homemade soups are delicious and filling (tomato bisque, cauliflower purée). The vegetarian nachos are really good and feature pumpkin seed mole, smoked tofu and pomegranate salsa. A definite win. Their craft cocktails are phenomenal, too. Friendly, unhurried service in a historic train station. Whatâs not to like?

Took my daughter and her boyfriend out to dinner. We were greeted well and shown to our table immediately; had made a reservation a few days ahead. The restuarant wasn't crowded and service was good. We all had the coffee encrusted steak at my daughter's suggestion. She had it during a previous visit and raved. Well turned out the steak was worth the price; enjoyed it tremendously. Atmosphere is fine if you have good company, otherwise a bit boring. But may have live music on the weekend, not sure. They do have a lovely double fireplace which can be utilized from the outside front area; nice for a few friends to gather in the fall for tapas or drinks.

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.
