    Buffalo chicken pizza and ziti
    Yesenia M.

    If you're looking for some authentic cuisine, this is a must! COMETS PIZZA is the OG of pizza in Hillside! Totally worth any trip to come over and have a nice slice, a pasta dish, or an incredible chicken Parm! You don't want to miss this spot! The staff is incredibly sweet and the location is family friendly and also provides a separate eating space for a night out dining.

    Quite possibly the best pizza I have ever tasted... well let's be honest it was the best. Not being from this coast I've heard tales of how the pizza on the east coast is better and obviously this place stands up to the hype of the pizza. The bathroom needs to be talked about specifically because it was immaculate and tidy and smelled so nice. I went to wash my hands before I ate and was so impressed on how clean it was. The dining room was cute and super clean too it was next to the place where you order so don't be fooled when you walk in I don't know why they had the other room but maybe it was for to go orders but it doesn't matter I sat down and they brought all the stuff to eat to me. One down side for me though I would have liked a soda machine like the ones that pour into the cup not the bottles, not a major thing but it would have made that feeling of being in a real pizza place like when I was a kid come back. We don't have those places anymore they used to be everywhere. But hey like I said GO EAT HERE! It was delicious and to the owner or people if you read this know I took my leftover pizza home with me on a 7 hour trip back to the west coast. It made it safe and sound and I kept getting asked for a slice from everyone on my trip home. But I held my ground pizza this good I wasn't about to share!

    Chicken Parmigiana, ziti, and garlic knots.

    Their pizza is good, but I come here for the chicken parmigiana it is soooo good, and the portion is huge. I've been coming here for 10 years and this is the only place I come to for the above meal. It's summertime and too hot to be turning an oven on, so Comet's is my place for baked ziti or chicken parm.

    Spaghetti

    Food was exceptional, Great Pizza, spaghetti and meatballs, tiramisu. Will definitely return next time I am in town.

    Girls' night rule #1: pick a place with a vibe. Girls' night…read morerule #2: the food better back it up. Burke's Tavern understood the assignment. None of us had been before, so we walked in blind, except not really, because the second we stepped inside the vibe hit us. Dimmed lights (but not "can't read the menu" dim), candles glowing, plants everywhere, music just loud enough to feel cool but not loud enough to ruin the gossip. Cozy. Chill. Cute. The holy trinity. It wasn't packed, so we had seating options and landed at a round table in the middle: elite positioning, honestly. Door and front windows on one side, bar view on the other. Prime people-watching real estate. Now let's discuss the important part: the food. We ordered strategically (read: everything we wanted). Lamb meatballs - 10/10. Holy crap. I don't know who is back there doing what, but please continue. Burrata pizza - absolutely delicious. Gone in record time. Gochu-Crispy-Chikin - no notes. Million Dollar Chicken - appropriately named. Fish 'N' Chips - zero complaints across the table. And that's the thing: not a single person in the group had an issue. No side-eye. No "it's good, but..." Just clean plates and happy energy. Now. Parking? Disrespectful. It's on a corner (love that), but finding parking took effort (do not love that). Would I let that stop me? Absolutely not. Parking be damned. I will circle. I will walk. I will manifest a spot. Because this place is such a vibe that it's already secured a return visit -- brunch is calling, and I need to see what this place feels like when the weather warms up. Girls' night/date night/ANY night approved.

    We were in Newark a late afternoon on a Sunday and looking for a burger. Went to another famous…read morelocal place and it was closed so decided to try Burke's Tavern. The atmosphere and restaurant look great. It has a good vibe and the service was great. Let me tell you about the burger, not the best, they give you a slider size patty, overcooked and served on a bun that comes apart when you grab it. I'm not sure about the rest of the menu, but not a burger place. Now the chocolate cake with the raspberry ice cream--wow! This was the best part of the meal. I'm giving this place 4 stars even though I didn't like the burger because that's all I tried. I'll come back and revise this rating up/down if I come back and try other menu items. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.
