      I started out with a party of 27 when the actual day came we dwindled to 19 but from start to finish they were very accomadating. Lisa (our waitress) had no problem giving us separate checks. The food was good and so were the drinks. I recommend the chicken and waffles they were very good!

      Awesome dinner earlier this evening. Service was great and food was also delicious. Large and open dining area which gives plenty of seating. Desserts were gigantic and a great way to end the meal. We got the Beer Belly Burger which has Iberico Pork Belly, Beer Cheese, Caramelized Onion & Hop BBQ on Fresh Brioche and the Vegan tacos. We also ordered the Brown Butter Pierogis. For dessert, a brownie with ice cream and bread pudding ala mode. Will definitely eat here again soon!

      This place is unfortunately a hit or a miss. The reason it is a miss is because the food is sometimes food and at other times it's not good at all. It is also FREEZING cold in here. The air conditioning is on all year round. When I mentioned how cold I was last time I was eating lunch here, they were unable to change the temperature because "the manager likes it to be cold in here for herself" word for word the response. The server seemed upset she had to work in such cold temperatures, but pretty much shrugged it off as "what can ya do". She was very sweet and attentive. The pretzel we ordered was as hard as a rock and we had to send it back. We ate with our coats and hats on I kid you not. There was nearly no one in here when it used to get more packed. I'm not a fan and many times thinking of going here to eat I changed my mind because of the cold temperatures and the inconsistent food quality. I won't be back for a while and it such a shame.

      Pretty solid spot, I came in on a short lunch break on my way south. It's almost hard to find it's right next to a large Amazon warehouse and surrounded by chain joints, so it was nice to find a local place nearby. It was mid-afternoon on a Friday so it was pretty dead, just a few people in the bar area and one bartender. The beer selection was pretty good, I gotta say I expected some more hyper-local breweries but it was most of the standard "bigger" NJ and other craft brews. Either way the beer list is very solid with plenty of options for everyone. They offer flights.

      I got the burger with the Jameson aioli, it was good. It didn't knock my socks off but it was good. The fries were very tasty. The prices were normal for a gastropub. I'd probably stick to burgers and stuff here but who knows maybe the entrees are delicious. But, this is a decent spot in the middle of Anywhere USA. I'd come back for sure.

      Came on a recommendation. Friendly nice people. Seemed fairly clean. Bar scene looked busy but the restaurant side was pretty empty. Wine tasted a bit off but was cheerfully replaced with something else. Dinner was pretty disorganized with apps and dinner coming out at the same time, and being out of key ingredients without being told or offered an option. When it was pointed out that that we didnit was happily replaced but did take a while. And management comped us apps which was nice (one of which was good but we were just hungry). The food itself was ok. And almost everyone in the restaurant did come to apologize. This were ok but not for the price. I think they need to do better before I'd recommend this place for anything except maybe the bar.

      Needed a meeting point for a dinner place for my friend and I so we ended up here. We were able to make reservations online which we liked, but upon arriving the place was pretty empty which was good. I'd rather have one than not. This is definitely a random location as others have mentioned. The menu isn't bad, a little bit of everything. The food was decent. We sat in the bar area which was being served by the bartender. Felt bad he kept running around but he was nice and patient and we were not in a rush which helped I'm sure. A good option if you're in the area and hungry.

      I've been here a few times now over the last 2 years and find both the service and food to be inconsistent. Some times both are great, other times both not very good, and other times a mixed bag. Overall I think there are other options in the area that offer a better value/option.

      Whenever I see American (New) as the obtuse descriptor of what awaits me on the menu, I usually break out in a cold sweat believing that the translation in layman's terms means we're going to put whatever fits into a microwave and a deep fryer and turn up the pain points on price.

      Well, I'm only partially right. Hamilton Tap and Grill is basic pub food executed well. I probably won't go for the steak knowing that I can make one better myself or go to a legitimate steakhouse and avail myself of a much better specimen. But I will say that my cheeseburger, fries and a few pilfered onion rings were terrific. This is low-key, jeans and sneakers dining with conversations permitted at a normal volume. That alone merits a five spot. Very nice.

      Ate here recently. It has a really nice interior. The service was great the wait staff was very attentive. Arrived early and there weren't many people in there so I you don't know what it's like later in the evening.

      The menu was somewhat interesting and little on the pricey side. We paid $12.99 for the calamari which definitely had a different take. Perfectly round (not a good sign), breaded calamari on a bed of what appeared to be a mix of chopped cabbage and carrots, drizzled with what tasted like sweet mango sauce and tangerines. It was interesting and tasty, but I don't think I would order it again. I'm usually just looking for a piled up plate of crunchy tender calamari with a dipping sauce.

      Next I had the turkey burger with brioche bun, that looked warm and buttery. I'm avoiding obvious carbs so packed it away so hubby could make himself a sandwich with it the next day the next day. The burger was tasty and not dry like some turkey burgers.

      They had quite a selection of locally sourced beers and the staff cheerfully let hubby sample quite a few. I ended up buying a flight of IPAs and one dark ale with a sample of Guinness.

      Disclosure: Wrote this review some time ago and just found it to post. So the menu may have changed.
