    The menu on a Tuesday in early September
    Paul D.

    En route to the environs if Albany on a Tuesday afternoon, I noted hunger pangs and fancied a bite as I had another couple of hours to mu destination. Using my Android, I searched for nearby restaurants off of 287 N and 3 West was the shortest detour at 20 minutes, thus I pressed "start navigation". 3 Weamst is located at the left edge of a fancy sort of strip mall. There is ample parking in the rear and beneath the building which is where I chose to prevent my vehicle from getting hot in the still warm early Setember sun. Upon arrival at approximately 1:45PM, I was promptly seated at the location if my choice and my order was taken. I decided upon General Tso's Cauliflower as id never heard of it and am always eager to taste new menu selections. There were probably less then a half dozen diners present at the time I was here. Anyway, the Tso's Cauliflower did not disappoint as it was precisely the type of meal I'd been in the mood for. (Photo included) I might add that i like cloth table napkins! I'd call the restaurant upscale in location and decorum. The servers were "classy", polite, attentive, and engaging. The bathroom was quite clean whi h is important to me as I feel that if the owner/managers are attentive to the lavatories, they are attentive to kitchen and employee hygiene which is a big plus for me. My meal cost $15.95 plus a beverage. Not bad!

    So beautiful here.

    What a nice surprise! We wanted a comfy, cozy place with good food after a day of travel from the West coast and another day/night of celebrating a wedding. We Googled a few places and landed on 3 West. We were pleasantly surprised to walk into a beautiful, warm and inviting restaurant. The staff was super welcoming and made us feel right at home. Everything is well thought out here. They keep the fire warm, serve lemon for water in a separate dish and offer a beautiful tea "service" with honey. The menu offered a "Power Lunch." We each decided to go with that option, and it was perfect. The Butternut Squash was yummy, the salmon was buttery, and flakey. My chicken slider was fried to perfection. We were all super happy and would have stayed longer if possible. We are definitely coming back if we ever get the chance.

    The Harvest Spritzer cocktail and the perfect Crème brûlée.

    I love Harvest Restaurant Group. The owners were big supporters of the Community FoodBank when I worked there, I imagine they still are. We go to Trap Rock a lot - the food and drinks are always delicious and the service is always good. Last night we branched out and tried 3 West. Similar menu to Trap Rock and Huntley. A little quieter. Highly recommend.

    Burger was surprisingly good.

    3 West is part of a restaurant group in New Jersey. I've been going to Harvest Restaurant groups since Trap Rock Brewery in Berkeley Heights twenty years ago. 3 West is well run, with professional food and service, in a comfortable setting. You won't go wrong if you're in the area and need a good dining experience. Before we had a team dinner, I stopped in for a meal for myself and sat at the bar. American fare, enough on the menu for anyone. Not much in the vegetarian option, but doable. Recommend and would go back.

    The food here is really mediocre for the price. The chicken pie had NO seasoning. My family and I went for my fathers birthday. I called in advance to get a candle and dessert set up for him but the host asked my father point blank if he was celebrating a birthday that night. That really ruined the surprise. A lot of the food was just under-seasoned. The best part was definitely our dessert. Our waitress was great too! The food came out very slow though. The atmosphere was really cozy and intimate. They weren't busy on a Saturday night, I really believe that speaks volumes.

    Cheeseburger and fries.

    Overpriced average food. Our entire group was underwhelmed. First all our starters of soup were served cold. Also, the portions are tiny. Waiter was pleasant and quickly offered to replace the soups with hot soup. Tasted good, just not much of it. Three of us got the cheeseburger for the meal and it was on par with a chain burger. Fries super salty. Nephew got the filet mignon and didn't think it was very good. Only person at the table that liked their meal was my niece who got the lobster roll. As we were a fairly large group, we were in a private room, which was nice. Not rushed at all.

    PULLED PORK NACHOS Blue Corn Chips, Avo Mash, Crumbled Feta, Chipotle Crema, Calabrian Chili BBQ Sauce
    John R.

    Yes, a strip mall location. Yes, if things were busy it doesn't look like there would be enough parking. Yet, if you make it through the door, you are welcomed to a surprise. It has a very cozy feel for such a large place inside. Going at a time of cold weather, seeing a real fireplace going made for a warm feeling indeed. The PULLED PORK NACHOS -- Blue Corn Chips, Avo Mash, Crumbled Feta, Chipotle Crema, Calabrian Chili BBQ Sauce, were nothing you would imagine 'nachos' to be presented as but this was actually a welcomed and wonderful twist on the mind and taste buds. The CHEDDAR BISCUITS with Maple chili butter were a nice add to the meal as well. For my main course I tried the PAN SEARED SALMON -- Miso Chili Crunch Glaze, Vegetable Grain Pilaf. It had enough going on flavor and texture wise to make it a truly unique dish to what you would get in other places. I wish they had a larger selection of craft beer, but I also understand this is more of a wine place when it comes to dinner. In summary, however, I was truly happy with this local discovery that stands out from everything else in the area. No, you are not going to get a cheap meal with large portions here, but that is not what this experience is all about.

    Amazing bartenders and the best smoked old fashioned in town! Always a good spot for a quiet drink.

    Great vibe! Cocktails were excellent and food was delicious! Service and management checked in regularly. Great night

    Filet mignon with Yukon gold potatoes and broccolini
    Michael O.

    Lovely space inside a NJ strip mall, near Interstate 78. The crispy Rhode Island calamari was delicious and I enjoyed the diverse flavors of the dish. Broccolini was excellent, very tender and flavorful though it was served room temperature, which I found strange. The Yukon Gold potatoes were fine. Filet mignon itself was not good at all, and exceptionally dried out, though I made the rookie mistake of ordering a steak in someplace other than a steakhouse. I learned my lesson. The requested medium rare was served beyond well done. The server never followed up on the quality of any of the food served nor took notice when taking back a plate with one bite out from the filet. Obviously, it must not be unusual for people to be unable to eat the food here. If you must eat here, I suggest the side dishes. They were all acceptable. Overall, this place is just not for me. Other dining companions had similar observations. Note that there is a great Afgan restaurant next door called Hills of Herat, although at that point it was too late to pick up take out for dinner.

    Ambiance and service were nice here--food was okay. We ordered the calamari and burrata for starters and they were nothing special. The burrata was ice cold which just about EVERYONE knows is the worst way to serve it. The crusty bread they served it with was also days old--ugh. The calamari were not top quality except for the price--you can do better at Costco. The main course of salmon and steak were again nothing to write home about. Salmon looked great but was too dry. Steak was good but not much came with it--I guess they wanted us to order side dishes but didn't advise us to. Anyway, it was worth skipping out on dessert and calling it a night. It's a decent place to grab a meal but not a top shelf restaurant which is consistent with all the other restaurants in town. So if you want somewhere to go with friends after work, fine; but if you're looking for something special, you need to go elsewhere.

    Good food, atmosphere, and service but it was relatively expensive and small portions. I got the filet.

They served us cold food, bc it was getting ready to close (?) at 8p. If it was good hot I will never know bc it was absolutely overcooked meat and veggies, that had been sitting for awhile. I normally only write in for positive reviews but the high price and lack of service should be noted. This was a weeknight in late April so maybe it was just a bad day? I frequently travel to the area and was really excited to have this in my rotation for eating in town bc I am quite particular about my food. The stars are for what they are attempting to offer, as my nieces (who are young) spend their money here still and seem to like it. Watch how your food is prepared and make sure you advocate if unsatisfied!

My bowl was just sitting out in the open while Staff walked by and made other people's food leaning over my bowl. So now its cold and potentially has debris in it from uncovered arms and hairnets. I was so close to leaving but I had committed to it. I shouldve left. The flavors did not match up, I found it bland. The salmon was blackened I guess. Super dry and the brussels were hard, inedible. Won't be coming back. Also, two people in line also left while waiting to be served. 4 people working - one with headphones in who completely ignored me and one person (the woman of course) was the only one waiting on people. It did seem clean, the chairs are like my elementary schol chair from 1994. Hard and uncomfortable.

    After spending most of the day yesterday at our relatives' home in this beautiful town--enjoying…read moregreat food, drinks, and wonderful company--we headed home. Originally, we planned to stop at a coffee shop to relax and wait for the traffic to ease. However, when we drove past this restaurant, we decided to check it out instead. The gentleman who seated us was super friendly. Our server, Theressa J., was equally warm, and professional. We weren't hungry at all. My husband ordered the Crispy Fritto Misto as an appetizer. I couldn't resist ordering the three-course meal, which included tuna and salmon poke to start, followed by lobster tail gnocchi and bread pudding for dessert. Since I wasn't hungry, I ended up taking most of my entrée and my dessert home. Everything was absolutely delicious, and we're so glad we decided to give this restaurant a try. By the time we finished dinner and got back on the road, the traffic had eased considerably. Needless to say, we went home happy!

Ask our server to cook the burger Medium Rare and to our disappointment, it was cooked Medium Well again. The French fries were also a huge disappointment because in our opinion, fresh fries were mixed in with leftover fries from an earlier service. The one shining star was the red blend wine which was above par and outstanding. Another huge disappointment and poor dining experience. I left a few messages for The DB Restaurant Group for a comment but nothing this far. David Burke, My wife and I had the pleasure of visiting The Red Horse and Saturday the 4th after our township Lebanon Parade. Similar to last year we also took advantage of your Cheeseburger Holiday special ($17.76 and $20.26) both nice values. Last year the cheeseburgers were cooked perfect to our liking, Medium Rare (posted on Yelp 5 stars). This year very disappointed, we asked for Medium Rare and instead it was served Medium Well/Well and the fries were not fresh. The waitress gave us a future free app coupon and that was also disappointing. On a positive note the room ambiance/decor is spectacular! Oh well, as a former Aramark Manager for over 16 years, I NEVER send food back to the kitchen. In ending you are a Food Maverick so God Bless You and continued success!
