i went here on a date. we were in the area looking for bars. when we got there, there was no seating by the bar so they sat us outside. it worked out good because we were able to smoke hookah outside. just a heads up the hookah is separate with a woman that provides it, its not included in the bill for the food and drinks. my date didn't know. he wanted to put it all on his credit card. he was lucky he had some cash on him or he would of had to zelle it. its not her fault we just didn't think. other than that we had a couple drinks and the service was good. i would go back, but i feel like its not really a date spot. i would go back with a couple girl friends of mine for a Friday night hangout.

Blue 42 - 4 OMFG Wings & 4 Blue42 Wings (~$15)

Blue 42 is a lively sports bar and a great spot in the community, especially for Packers fans. The…read moreatmosphere is fun and energetic, with plenty of sports on and lots of current and former players stopping in. They have so many wing options, making it one of my favorite places to grab wings. They're always fresh and made to order, and there are plenty of flavors to choose from. Whether you're watching the game, meeting up with friends, or just craving wings, Blue 42 is definitely worth checking out. I highly recommend it--and they're also available on Uber Eats!

When it's late at night and you suddenly get a craving for wings, Blue 42 is the way to go!…read more We ordered online and it took about 30 minutes to get to us despite being a little further out. They have 175 wing flavors to choose from. So there's something for everyone. We decided to try 3; Cajun dry rub, OMFG, and Buffalo cool ranch Dorito. First of all, their wings are crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked on the inside. The seasonings / sauces are well distributed and generous so each wing is perfectly coated. Starting off with the Cajun dry rub, the flavors were spot on. This one was my favorite out of the 3. It wasn't overly salty, which I usually find with Cajun flavors. OMFG is a Parmesan peppercorn and garlic buffalo blend. You definitely get the spice of the buffalo sauce with the aftertaste of Parmesan. It's absolutely delicious but to me it tasted mostly like buffalo sauce. Buffalo cool ranch Dorito, as the name suggests is also a buffalo sauce base with cool ranch Dorito crumbs. This one tastes just like the OMFG to me, but with the additional crunch. Overall, best wings ever, will definitely be ordering more!

I didn't get a chance to eat as we were just out to catch up. The Bar tenders were cool and did a great job. The venue is beautiful and had a nice aesthetic. I'll go back soon to try the food. Until then if you're looking for a cool spot with some food and music entertainment on a weekend night, you should definitely check this place out. Have a good one! - Ray

They maintain the charm and character of traditional pubs with rustic wooden tables, a friendly bar, and a warm welcome. Located on busy Maple Avenue in Fair Lawn, my partner, our friends, and I decided on the Craftsman for dinner as a repeat performance for some of us. We easily made a reservation via Resy for a party of six. The entrance has an incredible historical truck parked regally out front, decorated in its autumn festivity for a photo op. The staff at the host station greeted us upon our arrival. Since all parties needed to be present, we had a small wait before getting a table by the window inside the enclosed garden room called the parlor. The overall interior evokes a rustic and industrial vibe that was fantastic, vibrant, welcoming, and enjoyable. The main floor also had "a relaxed sports bar feel" with many televisions, while a more intimate setting awaits on the other side. Their diverse menu consists of contemporary American cuisine from classic comfort foods to seasonal specialties crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. As a starter, we decided on the Bavarian Soft Pretzel, Asian Glazed Calamari, and Crab Cake. Our main meal consisted of Beef Short Ribs, Lobster Risotto, Shirt Steak, and Pumpkin Mascapone Ravioli. Some of us saved room and got Cookie Skillet and Ice Cream À La Carte. Every bite was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and prepared to perfection. It was a tad pricey, but honestly for the portion size, it was well worth it. Our server was J(esus). He was attentive, friendly, upbeat, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. We had a fantastic time!

We arrived at approximately 5:45 PM and noticed the restaurant was nearly empty, with several tables available. When we asked if we could be accommodated, we were told that the tables were reserved. We even offered to be seated at separate tables next to each other, but that option was also declined. Unfortunately, no effort was made to accommodate our group or offer an alternative solution. It was disappointing, especially since we had been looking forward to trying this restaurant for the first time. While I understand that reservations should be honored, the lack of flexibility and customer service left a negative first impression. I hope the restaurant considers improving its approach to accommodating guests whenever possible. I had better hopes visiting this establishment.

The food has a lot of potential but tasted mostly bland & were very oily. I only ordered tacos and the best one I had was probably the al pastor tacos. My service was terrible, my drinks didn't arrive until my food did 20 mins after ordering it. The drinks were decent, mostly sugary. I was charged incorrectly on my guacamole that I had to dispute and was not made aware the lengua tacos were not apart of the special which would of been appreciated. Again, this place has potential but I didn't have a great experience personally.
