My coworker and I wanted to get dessert after our dinner and found this place down the street. We…read moredecided to check it out. It's located on the same street as the Fresh Fish Market and across of Main Street Spirits on Main St in, I believe, downtown Rahway. There is only paid metered street parking around the area. Prior to ordering, I was given the option to sample some of their flavors. I ordered a small with two flavors: Banana Dulce de Leche and Espresso. The Banana Dulce de Leche was a pleasant surprise, with a good banana flavor that was unfortunately overpowered by the caramel. I also found the Dulce de Leche to be a bit icy, which didn't blend well. The Espresso was okay, but had only a light, aromatic coffee flavor. I thought it wasn't strong enough in my opinion. Overall, it's a nice spot for dessert after lunch or dinner, and the large seating area is a plus.

We've never had gelato this creamy and filled with high quality chunks of cherries and pistachios. It was a bit of a drive but I know it's worth it. It is located in a small building behind a house. You have to go inside and knock on the door and someone will come to the door/window. They also offer ice cream pies, special cheesecakes, sorbet, spumoni, and tartufo.

I got a small of their new flavor with different cookies and my partner got a large of the cookie dough. The size difference from a large to small is significant. So don't get a large if you're not prepared to eat all of it. They were tasty. You can sit down at a few of the round tables but most people took theirs to go or ate in their cars. They offer DoorDash services I wish they put the full menu on the door as there were some options I wasn't aware of as a first timer and would have probably chosen something else if I knew they served other varieties of ice cream.

Never make this location your stop for ice cream or basic customer service. My experience at the…read moreRahway Dairy Queen was unacceptable and reflects a business that appears poorly managed, unaccountable, and disconnected from the community. The staff showed little urgency or willingness to assist customers. Employees were visible through the window, yet there was no meaningful effort to acknowledge or serve people who came ready to spend money. I understand food-service work can involve long, demanding hours, but that does not excuse poor service, indifference, or disrespect toward customers. This feels like more than a one-time issue. The location appears disorganized, employee morale seems low, and serving customers seems to be treated as an inconvenience. If staff members are unhappy with management, pay, or working conditions, the owner and corporate leadership need to address it--not allow customers to suffer through slow, ignored, or unprofessional service. I drove away rather than continue waiting for service that clearly was not being provided. Dairy Queen corporate should conduct a real review of this Rahway location's staffing, management, training, wait times, and customer complaints. The owner should be held accountable for the way the store operates. Rahway deserves businesses that respect customers and contribute positively to the community. Until this location makes major improvements in professionalism, speed, and customer care, I strongly recommend spending your money elsewhere. One of the worst customer-service experiences I have had at an ice cream shop. This Dairy Queen needs immediate attention from management and corporate leadership.

I ordered the Prime Steakburger, which was a double smashburger with shaved ribeye on top. I also got the fried cheese curds as well as the cheese fries. The burger was OK. The patties were smashed super thin and flat, and the shaved steak kinda slid off. It was pretty messy. The fried cheese curds weren't very stretchy, i wouldn't get them again. I liked the fries the most. The milkshake i got was pretty awesome, but for the price, this ain't that worth it. Bill came to near $30

I ordered the California burger, and although it was labeled as a steak burger, it was much closer to a steak-umm style patty than what I expected. The burger wasn't hot, the meat had a slightly weird smell, and it lacked seasoning. I think a little seasoning could have gone a long way, but unfortunately, it just wasn't there. The restaurant could also use a bit more attention to cleanliness, as others have mentioned in their reviews as well. The garbage was overflowing and some tables had crumbs, which was surprising considering it wasn't very busy and seemed fully staffed. Lots of of high top tables and booths. There's a couple of outside tables as well. Plenty of parking and a drive-thru! On a positive note, the custard was the highlight & definitely the best thing I tried. Prices were fair overall.

For drinks we had a coke soda $3.50 and an uptown girl (lychee martini) $14 Both were good. The servers were really nice. The vibe was laid back. The volume of the music was perfect.

The sauce was delicious, there wasn't an excessive amount of rice, and it had a generous amount of minced salmon and large shrimp, which I loved. The tempura was still very crunchy, even though it was takeout. It was just one roll to satisfy my craving, but it was really satisfying. Great prices, good food based on the one roll I had ordered.
