Restaurant Reviews
Italian-American cuisine served in a spacious storefront with casual, contemporary décor.
4 Seasons Mediterranean
August 25, 2016
Owner Abraham Ghebreal greets every guest and sets the tone for their experience. The food is Mediterranean, and for the most part, it, too, shines.
Boulevard Seafood Company
August 18, 2016
the new Boulevard Seafood Company, which is a restaurant, and Conlin’s, a French Bakery, are joined at the hip—literally, in that they share a single storefront; and figuratively, in their sensibility.
Fuji
August 11, 2016
Chen Zheng, Fuji’s longtime sushi chef, buys the legendary restaurant from its founders and endeavors to extend its legacy.
The Speakeatery is fun just for the cheeky Prohibition-themed names of its sandwiches (like the Elliot Mess). But the food is actually pretty good.
Plum on Park
July 19, 2016
Plum on Park, which occupies a cute little railroad car diner on Park Street in Montclair, is beloved for its brunches.
Yumi
July 7, 2016
Yumi chef/co-owner Shuenn Yang has earned a loyal following for his cooked dishes but especially for his sparkling sushi.
Ehren and Nadine Ryan (he from Australia, she from Austria) bring uncommonly good food to Millburn. Why there? Hint: Family.
Guy Fieri visited the renovated, more than century-old Anchorage Tavern in Somers Point, where you can feasted on plump oyster shooters.

Behind a strip-mall exterior, the large dining room offers a bright, comfortable setting for a wide range of foods Jerseyans love to eat.
Park West Tavern
June 16, 2016
Serving for 400 people a night is the challenge for Park West Tavern executive chef John Benjamin, which he meets in many, if not all, respects.
Black Olive
June 9, 2016
Chef/owner George Iliopoulos opened Black Olive because he felt the area needed a good Greek restaurant. He delivered just that.
Cavé
June 2, 2016
Paleo devotee and Cavé chef/owner Doug Stehle calls himself the caveman culinarian. Fred Flintstone, eat your heart out.
San Lucas' menu features mole poblano, Puebla’s most famous dish, with a thick, spicy, chocolate-tinged sauce over chicken and rice.
Hotoke, the venerable Japanese restaurant in New Brunswick, is nothing to laugh at. But there is merriment for all in eating its authentic food.
In 2012, John Stewart and Diana Smarrito married on 5/19 and later opened Kitchen 519 in Glendora. You'll find bliss in several spots on the casual American menu.
Mekong Grill
May 12, 2016
The famous Vietnamese beef and noodle soup, pho, is pronounced “fuh.” But however you say it, Mekong Grill will deliver an exemplary version, as well as other Vietnamese staples and delicacies.
Brick Farm Tavern
May 4, 2016
First the farm, then the market. Now with the tavern, the owners’ vision of sustainability comes to exciting fruition.
Masala Art in Branchburg draws from Mughlai and other Indian influences, and does them well.
