    Yuzu
    Janet C.

    Great selection of cocktails, wines, beers, etc! It's a small and cozy space with seating at the bar and smaller tables/barrels. There is a private room in the back that can be reserved as well. I tried the yuzu cocktail and it was light and refreshing. The margherita pizza was good as well. Service was quick and attentive. They also sell a limited selection of alcohol. Would definitely return!

    What a chill spot, especially for a first date. The bartenders (Joe!) are knowledgeable and understand when to engage or leave you alone. No TV which is a plus for me, and the music is at the right volume where you can have a conversation without screaming at each other. Solid cocktails too.

    Came here to celebrate our anniversary and really enjoyed it. We were there for Taco and tequila Tuesday. The shrimp tacos were amazing, and a great deal - 2 for $9. They also had $10 tequila drinks, so we enjoyed margaritas. The cocktail list was good, and the bartender was very talkative, knowledgeable, and friendly. I loved the casual and warm feel of the place. It's small, but the lighting and layout is perfect. We definitely plan to return!

    Rock Shrimp Cerviche

    Great food, service and atmosphere. We went got for a special summer beer tasting sponsored by San Adam's. The food and 5 beers that we were served were great. We started with a Florida Rock Shrimp Cerviche served with San Adam's Porch Rocket and their Cherry Wheat beer. The main course was a bourbon glazed short rib with Dogfish Head mandarin and Mango Crunch and their Citrus Squall. Desert was a Meyer Lemon Tart served with Sam Adam's Summer Ale. A really great tasting.

    Love this new local spot. We went in for a drink and walked out with several new bottles to try. Perfect for happy hour or drinks before/after dinner. They have a large wine and spirit selection. If you find something you like and would like to drink there is a small corking fee. There's plenty to pick from on the menu and they will make anything you'd like. We didn't try any of the pizzas or cheese boards but they looked delicious. Can't wait to come back for happy hour.

What started as a disappointing date night at a…read moredifferent New Brunswick restaurant (where we waited around 30 minutes with no service) was quickly turned around by making the decision to head over to Harvest Moon instead. The service was phenomenal -- the host was also our server, the bartender was the food runner and busser half the time as well. It was clearly evident that their staff work as a team and are all incredibly hard workers. We both also really enjoyed our food, opting for a steak sandwich (for my husband) and grilled chicken sandwich (for me). The portions were large enough to bring home leftovers and still feel full, and everything tasted fantastic. I absolutely recommend this place and will definitely be back soon.

Worst of all the salmon burger had a strong smell and the fries weren't fully cooked. The waitress was quick and she did a great job. The place itself is dimly lit and has a relaxed ambiance. Better upstairs if you are going for more of a sit down dinner as the main floor has the TVs and bar.

I've been here twice with groups of 6. We've ordered everything from the burgers, to the chicken sandwiches and fish and chips. I ordered a Chicken Caprese sandwich and I enjoyed it the first time. The 2nd time I ordered the Veggie Wrap which I decided to turn into a sandwich. That didn't work so well. The burgers were good too. The items all had the option of fries or salad. All the food was good, except the fish and chips was batter and very little fish. The old school ambiance is really nice. The restaurant has an upstairs and downstairs dining area, each with its own bar. If in the area for a show, Tavern on the George has it down to a science getting all the groups in and out in time. Although, the food is nothing special, I'd come here again.

A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

    Delicious! Great variety of sausages and toppings to choose from. If it's your first time, I…read moreencourage you to pick something off the menu and you won't be disappointed. Service was awesome, walked in 2 mins before happy hour and the waiter took our beer order in record time. He was also very attentive during our entire meal. I ordered the Andouille Armstrong and it was my fav, great snap on the dog and all the flavors complimented each other great, I also had the Si Si Guey, wasn't my favorite but wasn't horrible, I wasn't a fan of the chorizo, I felt the toppings made this hot dog. As for ambiance, it's a bar, has TV, liquor, beer, etc., but clean. If I was local I'd be a regular!

    If you're driving down from anywhere to central NJ and Rutgers University area & want that "I found…read moremy spot" feeling -- Victoria's Tratta Italiano is "it". You walk into this warm amazing & friendly place on Church St, New Brunswick, smell that brick oven firing, and the owners themselves, might pop by your table to ask how the pasta & food is. Isn't that amazing & extraordinary!! You can truly enjoy this family own spot. The owners and staff "show up", and say how's the food, how are you doing? Not once's but multiple times!! Each time with an amazing attention, jokes that we could not stop laughing pleasantly. The waiter was also amazing, pleasant and very gentle. We came down to New Brunswick for our daughter graduation at Rutgers, and looked at various restaurants in the area and selected Victoria because they had a great variety of food for each member particular preference. We had: - Garlic Bread with Olive Oil. - Fried mozzarella calzone - Pepperoni Pizza - Fettuccini Alfredo Chicken - Wild Mushrooms Filet Risotto - Chicken Parmesan And I had the Papa Mango Salmon which was amazing. If you like Salmon I highly recommend it. To top it off limoncello and sambuca did its final touch. Thank you Victoria Tratta Italiano. It's a go-to before a show at State Theatre or Stress Factory, which I have been to before, because it's literally around the corner, parking's easy in the deck, and they won't rush you out. Service feels amazingly cool. Bring a date, bring your kids, bring your parents, bring the whole birthday crew. They do it all, and they'll make you feel like you are family at Home.

After doing some Dr. Frankenstein rearranging of cheese and chicken, we were able to eat this pie. The good part is they use Franks, which I love, so the pie was spicy and had a familiar taste. But the crust was bland and the chicken breast tasted like it had no seasoning. There was a ton of it, but it was just a chore to get through. So overall I say 3 for that pie, but I bet if I went in and ate it there and it wasn't such a mess it would be an easy 4.

I mentioned it to one of the employees who feigned anger at the distributor and said the owner was going to bring it to his attention. Three days later the beer was still on the shelf. He made up a very lame excuse, saying the owner wanted the distributor to see the expired product on the shelf. Not only that, they received another delivery of the same beer a few days later that was nearly as old. The shelf life of most canned beer is about 6 months. For "Craft beers", which generally don't use preservatives, it's more like three months. Year and a half old plus beer on the shelf is inexcusable, regardless whether it's a craft beer or from a major brewery Shortly after this I went to purchase a six of another craft beer and the "drink by date" was early January. This was now the middle of March. Thankfully I was wise to them and checked the date before I purchased Yes I know the difference between a drink by date and a canned-on date. Some breweries use one and some use the other. The employee tried to convince me that it was not really a date but some sort of mfrs. code. Yea...no, it is a date. So we have two possibilities here. 1. The distributor is screwing them and selling them a substandard product. I alerted them to that possibility and things haven't changed, so we can rule that one out. So that leaves us with... 2. They are in with a dishonest distributor who is using them to unload garbage, thinking that the frat boys and other college students won't know the difference. That said, everybody who works there seems nice. The prices aren't bad for a small, independent liquor store. Just check the dates when buying beer.

I literally said to myself as I drove around Somerville that I wish there was a wine or cocktail bar for...mature people like myself to chill at. So I looked up wine bars and boom - VintEdge was right down the street. I came in around 9pm, picked a comfy seat by the window, and ordered. Can you believe I had never had an espresso martini until that evening?? So my first was a pumpkin espresso martini. Well I may have had 2. And another drink. Ahem. The service was great, not fussy, and I wasn't rushed even as we approached last call. Visit 2: having heard about my great experience there alone, my cousin arranged to meet me there last week. Or so she thought. Through a series of mutual miscommunications, I was here at the crib waiting for her, while she was at the wine bar waiting for me. Once we figured that out, she got us some food to go and we ate here at home. Verdict: -excellent seating options - stools, couches, chairs -food is so so good. Tartare, truffle fries. Fig jam pizza -drinks include awesome bottles and seasonal takes on old favorites This could be my new spot.
