First time for lunch with a friend. Absolutely delicious! Fantastic menu...so many great options. The lobster orchietta was really good. Atmostphere was nice. They have a nice outdoor seating area in nice weather. We really enjoyed our time here and will certainly return.

Their bagels are ok. They offer sandwiches and some desserts. As many times as I've tried this place, I've never felt like the service was friendly. At one point, I went everyday for several weeks on my way to work and they still acted like I was a stranger walking in for the first time. Other bagel places, quickly recognize you and know what you want every morning - not here. It's ok but I prefer to go to A&B Bagels on the other side of town - better bagels, slightly friendlier service.

I've been wanting to try Dominicks for a while. I would try going after a show at the Newton Theater but they always would be closing Went the other day and had 2 slices of the Sicilian and it was very good. A nice thick airy dough just like I would get decades ago in Brooklyn. I guess it was no surprise that photos on the wall were from Carroll Gardens, an old Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn. Nice mozzarella and sauce on the pie. My wife had the white broccoli pie which she thought very good. I will be back for the pizza and to try a sit down dinner. A welcome reprieve from most of the lousy pizza in Sussex County.
4. Thai Nam Phet II

Reviewed By Stephanie B - Stillwater, New Jersey
Hubby and I are very familiar with Thai cuisine. I eat moderately spicy - but he eats VERY, VERY, VERY spicy, as in call-the-firefighters-to-put-out-the-fire spicy. (very spicy = "pet makh" OR very, VERY spicy = "pet makh pet makh")
The food here is authentic, delicious, and most dishes can be customized (mild/medium/spicy) some in the kitchen.
For those like hubby, who like it as spicy as some of the hottest regional tribal cuisines are cooked, you can see them for "table spices" and they will give you the additional condiments used in private homes all over Thailand to kick up your food even more.
We always enjoy eating here (the Newton, NJ location) and at the Rockaway, NJ location.

This quaint home-style breakfast/lunch spot is a great place for a unique breakfast. They have a lot of homemade choices, including the coffee of the day and several choices of jams. We had an omlet and the amaretto cream and bacon french toast. Both were well-prepared and tasty. The breakfast potatoes were solid and the toast, although a little light on the butter was hearty. We chose the strawberry/basil jam and were happy with it. Service was attentive and timely. Good choice if you are in the area.

We visited this past Sunday morning for a late breakfast/lunch. We got the chicken and waffles and salad. Everything was really good. Service wasn't anything fabulous. And I felt the prices were high. But overall it was good. There was a wait once we left.

The outside gazebo is screened in and provides a nice quiet place to dine surrounded by nature. Make a reservation on weekends. It is always packed! Best pizza ever! The Palermo pizza has a thin crust and just the right amount of cheese. Delicious sauce. You won't be disappointed.

Whenever we are in Newton ( we live in Pennsylvania) we stop here for "linner". The lunch menu is extensive including soup . Service is adequate...some waitresses don't speak or understand English. Atmosphere is calming....food has always been spot on. We will definitely return....
