Met up with some friends on a Friday night for Happy Hour. We got there at 5pm, knowing we only…read morehad to 6 pm to enjoy happy hour. We were seated in the back area as there was about 8 to 10 of us. The well drinks (tito, margarita, etc) were priced at $10 and appetizers priced at the same. I ordered a lemon drop martini to drink, grilled oysters and steak crostini to eat. My grilled oysters were okay, except for one that has some "crunch"...lol to it. My steak was medium and cooked as ordered. But the show stopper was definitely the lemon drop martini, it was a good strong. So I ordered a second. The other girls really enjoyed their Caesar salad and mango margaritas. Our service was a bit slow, but good overall. Good happy hour spot, with a parking lot.

The resturant was smaller than I thought but very cozy with a room with a bar and a dining area…read more There is an upstairs area where the only bathrooms are also located but it was empty when we were there. Also there is a parking lot, and they were offering valet when we went. I enjoyed the food I had as an entree (steak frites). What I didn't like was our waiter was constantly trying to up charge us. He kept asking if we wanted to add specific things to all our orders and even if we said no, he still insisted on it. This even occurred with shots of alcohol. I explicitly said I was driving and didn't want it and still shots were brought out with out us even asking. We thought maybe he was being very nice. Or maybe something was included we didn't know about ( what was added were things like a Caesar salad, Brussel sprouts, and sweet potato fries so it easy to see how we didn't see it was things out of the ordinary included as sides for meals) or we were for some reason getting something comped, but that was not the case. Our bill was ASTRONOMICAL. If we didn't have these items we didn't want added on, it would have been fine but this type of way of doing business makes me never want to go back. We considered fighting the bill, but we did eat the food because at the time we thought it was either included or comped. Please be aware of this if you visit this restaurant, and if you are insisted upon adding things to your order learn from our mistake and ask more questions if it's included or make sure you explicitly say NO.

Their Matchas were being consistently ordered. It shows they really thought through the flavors of their menu. The salad was fresh and delicious. The peri peri pork sandwich was salty, but fiance and was hungry. Parking is a hassle in this location. Despite the lack of, they are always moving with a line every few minutes. The line goes so quick with all of the staff members assisting, that you don't even wait too long. Certainly much faster if you order beverages and already made items like pastries, fridge items and their cyo bowls or side option if your looking to be in and out. Looking forward to our next lunch date here!

My friends had a Cheesesteak Panini with Fries, and Eggs with Corned Beef Hash. They both really enjoyed their dishes. And again, the portions were ample. This is a really solid, affordable, and pleasant spot in Montclair. I will return.

Once I arrived, the interior was clean and inviting. The woman there was very nice and best of all, our order was ready when I got there. My son and I shared the Mac and cheese balls. These were surprisingly good. They weren't your blasé typical appetizer. They taste in house made and came with a hot side cup of dipping cheese. Really a good start. For dinner my son got the rib eye cheese steak sandwich with no onions and peppers. He gave me a thumbs up. The bread was nice and soft. I only know this because I moved it to take a picture. I got the half Chicken with rice and beans. Skin on the chicken was crispy and the chicken was juicy. Came with a side of green sauce to dip. Price was very affordable. I hope they get a good jump start and keep the quality right where it is because this has a ton of potential. You can dine in as well if you wanted to.

Located in Montclair, this small breakfast and lunch spot is a local favorite. The service was really good, they were very attentive to our large group and my toddler. They had some books for him. I had the huevas rancheros, which is only available Fri-Sun. It had 2 eggs that came on 2 fried tortillas and a side of potatoes and avocado slices. It was delicious, very flavourful and satisfying. The sourness of the seasoning went really well with the plain bean and tortilla taste and complimented the eggs well. Everyone at the table was satisfied with their meal.
