Am sure it must be nice in the summer as it's on the lake. Nice restaurant friendly staff. Valet parking. Driveway is v steep. We had the Cesar salad n queso fundido de birria. Cesar salad was v tasty n a big portion for 2 to share. Loved the queso fundido de birria. Tasted really good. Had the king pargo Frito which was fried red snapper n was so delicious n crispy. Also got the filet pargo lobster cream sauce. Fish wasn't cooked well but the sauce was good. Not that appealing. Lobster sauce would have tasted better w the whole fried fish. Topped it off w churros - half caramel n half chocolate which was good. Not sure if I will come back.

I asked for my steak Fajitas to be cooked less and he spoke to the cook. They both went out of their way to make my meal the best I ever had. My friend ordered a burger NO CHEESE. It was sent back, Melissa took care if this for us. If my rating was only for the service I would give it a 5. The Jumbalya tastes old, stick fries tasted like they came out of a can of chips. Still miss the Chili and the quality of the food is so, so. This reminds me why we dont come here very often anymore. Not worth the money.

Luckily Freppe's makes it fun by serving up the margarita mix if you bring along the tequila. Done! Freppe's ended up being the perfect spot for a little lunch, and not just the DIY margaritas. We had perfect weather so sat outside on their patio, had a really lovely waitress taking our orders, and served up some pretty delicious food. I got the mahi mahi tacos and they were pretty great. Lots of fish and the verde salsa had so much flavor. I think the fish was just a bit overcooked, so I will probably try something else on my next visit, but still loved my meal. We got some churros for dessert and oooooh man they were good. Piping hot and filled with a caramel or dulce de leche sauce that was so tasty. Perfect cap to to a great meal. We'll be back! Some tips: They have a big parking lot in the back, and I will say it again, BYOB and have them turn it into margs for the table.

We spent almost $100 on the meals, but had to eat with our jackets on due to the cold temperature in the restaurant. We asked the waitress to turn up the heat, but alas, we had to eat in the cold. As far as returning, we are going to wait until summer.

My son brought me here on Mother's Day, and only one of the kids had Mexican food. She was…read moredisappointed with the nachos from the kids menu as they were only topped with cheese and the place they usually go serves them loaded, but that'w what I fix at home and the cheese was good. Older grandson had wings, and they were so spicy that he kept running out of water and we had to ask for more water a couple times. I had a combo with a cheese enchilada, which was good but surprising because it was topped with seasoning instead of sauce, and a chimichanga which was very good. Middle grandkids shared a chicken basket. I'm somewhat mobility impaired and the choice of seating was the patio, which is all high-tops, which don't work for me, or upstairs and there was no elevator. I did climb the stairs, but it's a slow process, so beware if that will be an issue for you.

The tacos were pretty good, the steak fajita dish was also very good, the Baja fish tacos were on the dry side but ok. Downsides: place is new and obviously folks are flooding this place to try them out. The staff is overwhelmed. We were seated quickly, but menus took a while because they were short whole menus. The kitchen was also overwhelmed. I saw people leaving with bag fulls of food. For $2 tacos people were likely ordering by the truckload. Our order took 40 mins to reach the table. And to be honest, I wanted more food but couldn't afford to wait close to an hour for it. I will say that the owner was walking to the tables and let us know what was going on- totally appreciated it. She also gave us a discount to help make things right which we also appreciated. We gave the discount and the tip to the waitress. The waitress was phenomenal. Clearly under pressure. She knew that we were antsy because of the wait and she really did try to be extra attentive with drinks and chips. Big kudos to her. New place going thru the growing pains. Don't give them a hard time. I'll be back and look forward to seeing them settle in.

Since I wrote my initial review of Wayne & Sons, thinks have changed dramatically - for the better…read more Seemingly after establishing a proof of concept in Manhattan, they've moved to Williamsburg in Brooklyn. It's a bit further from the G and L than I'd prefer (especially if the weather is bad) but the journey from the subway is well worth it. The biggest upgrade at the new location is size: the new Texas-sized space might genuinely be ten times the size of the old Manhattan location. This makes it much easier to get a spot, with a sizable bar on the side away from the door and a dozen or so tables spread throughout the restaurant. It can still get cramped when they're busy but that's to be expected at any New York City restaurant. The decor of the restaurant is delightfully kitschy and every time I visit I see something new that's charmingly Texas. Service was already friendly in the smaller Manhattan space but it's only gotten better now they're able to squeeze more than a couple of employees in the space. Honestly they might have some of the friendliest service in New York City. Food and drink have improved as well. On the food front you've got all the old favorites and some new additions. My girlfriend and I agree that the chili fries are probably the best thing on the menu, with the Texquites and crunchy taco also being fantastic. The drinks have also improved, with the Strong As Buck drinks (limit 1!) making the hop across the East River and multiple frozen drinks joining the menu (I don't think those weee there before but the Texas Tea may have clouded my memory). Also need to shout out the house-made hot sauce, with the red being both very hot and very flavorful. It's a fantastic TexMex restaurant and if they had fajitas it would be perfect. Wayne & Sons 2.0 had a difficult challenge in being better than the original. They did it effortlessly.

I will leave it to you to decide whether Shakey Jakes Cafe is a dive bar, but they seem to take pride in it. As you will see upon arrival the door mentions that Shakey Jakes is recognized by Yelp & NJ.com as one of the top Dive Bars in Jersey. Bartenders are super friendly, helpful & professional. I sampled Bombay Sapphire, which is offered in a small glass or beer goblet...humm okay I'll bit let's go Big! I ordered the Steamed Clams, which come with croastini. On the menu it is offered with a Cajun Garlic Butter, I replaced that with just the regular drawn butter. Wow--wonderful nice size clams with the toasted bread, delicious. I loved it so much I had a second order. If you are are a steamed clam fan don't forget to sample the clam broth. This place is a keeper. I sent a picture of the front door of Shakey Jakes to my wife and son. I mentioned that "If I go missing this is the place to start." I showed the text to the Bartender, she got a huge kick out of it and said you are not from around here are you?
