Going because it is a favorite of a friend that worked nearby at one time.

We have reservations in November.....any reviews....for City Hall...I understand it is about 5 blocks from the Holland Tunnel.

Looking for a nice place to go for dinner...visiting weekend...taking teens that don't enjoy spending alot of time in restaurants! Any suggestions

Got distracted doing a graduation party! Still have my eyes open....want it reasonable and now not locked into outdoor.....but would like bright and airy feel.....by August I think we are all looking to be inside with the AC!

Along Raritan road next to momotaro you have Clark BBQ which is portugese.....To be polite I will say inexpensive.....good value and can be tasty....not gourmet....and not Newark Portugese.

Looking for restaurant with outdoor or very airy indoor seating for summer birthday party. Would prefer Sunday lunch or brunch. Looking within a 5 mile radius of Westfield......possibly...summit, maplewood, south orange, rahway,etc. Any suggestions.....also want to keep it reasonable for approx. 50

In Cranford : Cafe Paris and Cafe Rock....both very nice. Union: Van Gogh's ear

Have had dinner and a few lunches within the past few years...loved it....although lunch was better then dinner.....this was also confirmed by the person that introduced me to the tavern. Love dining on the porch in warm weather.

We usually dine on Saturday night....alone or with couples...depends on the planning. I think the nite and distance question depends on ones home life! We have teens at home so usually during week a little more hectic and tired....and weekends we tend not to stray too far.....you can never let a teen know how far you are going and when you will be home unless the answer is not too long!!!! We prefer byob restaurants because we are not really drinkers...alone many times nothing and with other couples maybe a bottle. I will only go to a restaurant with friends who have similar drinking habits. I don't appreciate chipping in on a $100 bar bill when we had not one! These days with gourmet martini's that adds up quickly. Never entered my mind to bring bottle to restaurant with liquor license. Good to know.

Lreda.....Support your local favorite restaurant before they're closed and you shake your head and say what happened to that place, we were just there 5 months ago.

I am upset that I had to be the one to find this out. ABSOLUTELY AWFUL. I really hate to leave a negative review....but......we sat down at 7:15pm....we walked out at 9:30pm and never had our dinner. We were a party of 6. It took them 3 tries to bring me my appetizer of Mozzarella , tomato, and peppers....and even then it wasn't what it was supposed to be! After being frustrated waiting for this the waitress said she found out you get a side salad with your meal!!!!! So why did we order salads!!!! Atone point we looked around and not one table had food on it! We saw other tables packing it up and one table we heard the guy say his lamb tasted like fish and left.. Amazing that during all the delays no one came over and apologized or did anything. Finally when we said we were going to leave the manager came from the kitchen and said they were sorry but the chef had cut himself and they were backed up. (I heard they were 3hrs behind last week) Well that really put a dent in our appetites! To much information. Then he said he would give 20% off our check....big deal. Finally brought 2 dishes out.....ordered Tuna rare.....was not rare nor did it taste like tuna......being the other dishes did not come out.....we just walked out......Never , never has this ever happened. I should have followed my gut ( like in egullet) reaction.....and not try new without some feedback.

I posted to see if anyone had been here...the old South Side Roman Bistro...got no response so tonite we are trying it. Supposedly the chef came out of some restaurant in Hoboken.....so we shall see. I usually like to hear feedback before trying a new one!

TIMES MARKET.....SOUTH AVE. PLAINFIELD.... Between Terrill and La Grande Best produce, unusual items, breads and prices

Thank you so much Katherine!

I AM NOT A COOK! Made chicken soup last week.....we have been enjoying it all week however I have some left and wanted to know at what point is it too late to freeze? Please answer quickly......
