    I grew up eating these hot dogs as a kid in branch brook park. The back then I would only eat a dog with ketchup and a soda. Today I got a chili cheese and potato dog, I preferred the potato dog but they were both delicious. There's no where to eat inside but there's a very long wooden rail outside that's perfect to eat like the way the original spot was. Nostalgia was heavy

    Chris is still going strong. Anytime someone travels 2 hours for a hotdog you know it's good.

    Last time out to the truck in Newark was a 4 star, this time I hit the shop in Verona and it was 5 star. Fresh rockland bakery roll, and two excellent dogs. Got a St Patrick's Day special and the loaded baked potato. That potato dog was serious. This is my 2nd dog from Chris' that had a potato component and both were home runs. I got to meet Ant and talk for a bit and that was awesome...I'm already looking forward to going back. Service was fast and excellent and I dig the shop he has there in Verona. I love a good food truck but he has plenty of space and it's bright and clean in this location, which obviously is a plus. You already know Chris' Red Hots - Didn't Suck!

    I believe this was my Chipotle Cruncher. Deeeeelish!!!

    Delicious and Original glizzy concoctions. The flavor combinations were quite tasty. Looking forward to a return to this establishment.

    One mustard and hot onions and one spicy potatoes.

    Very clean. Very polite. Parking along the rear side of the building as well as plenty of spaces on Bloomfield Ave. The dogs are as delicious as the street truck ... just smaller buns and smaller dogs.

    First stopped at Six Points Pub on April 18th, close to 3 PM, with the intentions of grabbing a…read morequick bite with a friend after a long drive from VA. We walked in and sat at the near-empty bar and were soon greeted by the bartender (woman with long brown hair), who also provided us with menus. After a few minutes, she circled back, and we ordered two glasses of water. Just seconds after ordering the waters, we were asked for ID. Unfortunately, I left my ID in my jacket, which I didn't have with me at the time, so I explained this to the bartender. We were then told that we could not sit and eat without ID (which I have never heard of in any restaurant I've been to... EVER). I left without making a big deal of it since I was hungry from my drive. Stopped here again on Saturday, May 16th, around 9 PM to meet up with friends before leaving Bloomfield for the night. We were told we could sit where we liked and were quickly attended to by one of the servers upon entry. I ordered a water, and my friend ordered the Six Points Burger with fries. This time, we were not carded until we decided to order beer/drinks. Additionally, there was a child in there, no older than 12 years old, eating with a parent/caregiver on this evening- ultimately proving the whole 'you need an ID to eat here' thing false... What can I say about Six Points after these two experiences?... There's a lively crowd in the evening times, and food seems decent, and it's in a prime location on Bloomfield Ave... but it's quite evident that (at least) one of their bartenders is prejudiced and seems to have issues with people of color simply trying to sit and order food. *I called Six Points on May 18th and asked to speak with a manager regarding my experience. I left my number with one of the employees who answered, and he also told me I would receive a call back- sadly, that never happened. To clarify, the employee acknowledged that my experience on April 18 should not have occurred, as I should have been allowed to order food. Lesson learned: Just go to Egans or Just Jakes in Montclair instead of Six Points Pub.

But after I gave it another shot later, I realized they take online orders. The estimated time here does seem to be off though, as I showed up about 5 minutes before the ETA and it was already sitting around being less hot. So maybe estimate picking up even earlier than that. When I came, the place was packed, but it was a game night. The kitchen/pick up area is way in the back, but I will say, their hot pretzel is fantastic. The flavor itself is good and crunchy, but with the cheese sauce, it was truly delectable. It was just pure thick cheddary liquid goodness. It also came with a mustard if you're that sort, but just the combo of pretzel and cheese makes for such a good and quick snack. They also have a trivia night promotion, so I'm interested in checking that out, but for bar food (even to go) is pretty solid.

Although it was a bit crowded at the bar, service wasn't too bad. However, one of the book club members specifically asked for a drink without alcohol and ended up receiving a frozen lemonade with alcohol. So she left upset. As far as food: super mid. I was actually surprised when I cut into my fried chicken sandwich and it was a bit pink. The chef himself assured me the food was cooked but it just had that color because of the brine. Idk sounds like they should change the brine then. Loaded waffle fries were also kind of gross because there was so much oil. Seems like it's a place locals enjoy, I'm glad I'm not a local.

The vibe is fun and family-friendly, with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. Inside, there are games for kids, making it a great hangout for all ages. I ordered the Pineapple Express cocktail, super tasty and strong! For food, I went with the half order of beef brisket, fried chicken, mac and cheese, and cornbread. The fried chicken was stellar, juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Everything was solid, but that chicken really stood out. It's located in Lackawanna Plaza, which has a trendy, up-and-coming feel with several other eateries to explore. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu and maybe check out the rest of the plaza while I'm at it!

After stopping in one night, checking the menu, I decide I'll like to try eating at the establishment. So, being near more recently, I visit the eatery. I order a custom burger via a kiosk. I select the Beyond meat as the Vegan protein option and select all, if not, nearly all, of the free Vegan additions. I like the Banana Peppers offering a piquing sharp pickle salty flavor. I find there is no need for ketchup with the tomatoes though the sweeter flavor (in comparison to the less sweet firmer-juicier tomato) bodes well with the juicy Beyond burger (which drips a decent amount from in the air above the foil-like wrapping). The moist lettuce bun makes the meal feel lighter, juicier, and crispier, to me. The establishment offers a variety of indoor seating. The establishment takes different forms of payment though check with an employee prior to ordering (writing so because the kiosk I use actually does not accept all/more than one form[s] of payment). There are televisions which, during my visit, due to the programming on the channels, seem to add family friendly sports bar vibes.

They have plenty of seating but no designated area for takeout which was a bit disappointing since all other smash burgers I've been to do have it. I got a regular Smashburger with smash fries on the side.

The guy said... " Well I just got an online order that came though so that's not an issue on our side...that's something on your end" I paused, as I've worked in customer service for some time and, never do you or blame the customer or put it on them to figure it out. That is the quickest way to lose customers, as they just did and, kill your bottom line. And it's so very ghetto of him to have done that. After some back and forth explaining that it's not our service or devices as we just placed orders for another group separately. The dude did not want to hear it and said...

"Yeah we're just workers here we have nothing to do with the online ordering " At this point I realized how low level the Montclair Smash Burger really is. Especially hiring people who don't give f#*k. What does that say about the owners, hiring a manager who hires people like that and doesn't train them properly in customer service. Will never consider them ever again. Three words... Word Of Mouth
