I did not think this place would be so good but it's found its way up on my top 5 list in southern NJ. Tastefully thought out menu that does everything so well, and it's not even that expensive!

I have been coming here since they first opened, and it has always been one of my favorite spots. Over the years, the food has consistently been great and I've always had good experiences with the service, which makes yesterday especially disappointing. From the beginning, it seemed like our server had far too many tables and was overwhelmed with the workload. We initially ordered our appetizers, and when she brought them out, we told her we were ready to put in our entrées. She said okay, but then did not return to our table for another 20 minutes to actually take our order. We were left sitting there waiting despite already telling her we were ready to order. I completely understand that restaurants get busy and that servers can be stretched thin. However, the lack of attention to our table made the entire experience frustrating, especially at a restaurant where I've had such consistently good service in the past. Unfortunately, the food was also not up to the quality I've come to expect from Cinder Bar. To make matters worse, after eating there, I became extremely sick with symptoms consistent with food poisoning. I normally wouldn't let one bad experience erase years of positive ones, but between the extremely slow service, disappointing food, and becoming sick afterward, this experience was bad enough that I no longer feel comfortable returning. It's genuinely disappointing because Cinder Bar has been one of my favorite restaurants since they opened, and I have recommended it to others many times. I really hope management looks into both the staffing situation and what may have happened with the food that day, because yesterday's experience was completely different from the Cinder Bar I've known and enjoyed for years.

I also completely missed the fall specials and wish they were more prominent. It was interesting that the cream cheese came separate from the bagel in it's on container, but it prevented it from getting too melted and was great for to-go. The chive cream cheese and the Neapolitan iced latte were both awesome. I wish skim milk was an option. Some street parking available.

The first thing that hit me when I entered this small, quaint little establishment was I felt like I was transported back to Mayberry of the 50's and 60's. Breakfast is served all day, and my western omelette with home fries, English muffins and crusty scrapple were delicious with my coffee and tomato juice. I guess the atmosphere lends to the friendliness of the patrons, who seem like neighbors you've known forever, especially the young toddler in a high chair I was playing peek a boo with around the partition that separated our booths. The little gem is a very inexpensive treat.

We chose to sit at the far end of the bar, the bartender, Gabriella was quick to greet us. I ordered ginger spritz from the specialty drink menu. My husband had his pino - Gabby gave him choices of dry to sweet. He was pleased with his choice as was I. We relaxed and enjoyed our drinks, no rush. Gabby checked on us and also filled my husband glass when needed. We were happy to see some new items on the menu. Gabby took our order when we were ready to eat. I chose the short ribs with butternut squash risotto and steamed broccoli. John was happy to see scallops, so he ordered them, served with dirty Cajun risotto (enjoyed the risotto over mashed potatoes!) Our meal arrived in large black decorative bowls. The presentation was very nice and made our entree very inviting visually. Our server brought 2 glasses of water w/lemon (I had asked her to have with our dinner when it came out). The short ribs were so tender they were fork friendly, paired with the risotto perfectly- loved it! Next time I'll ask for a bit more broccoli. Highly suggest this item! Delicious and plenty. John reported that his scallops were perfectly seared and tender. He also enjoyed the Cajun risotto- empty plate ensued! Thank you to Gabriella for being so attentive and answering my questions during our stay. Great mixed drink and the wine was perfect. A delicious and satisfying dinner.

My only minor suggestion would be to crush the pistachios and sprinkle them on top instead of serving them whole, as the whole pistachios took a little longer to chew. Nothing major--just some general feedback. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

You can't really mess up eggs and potatoes so those were good. The pancakes were also good. The burrito was gritty but I think that was my fault because I added chorizo. I should've left it with eggs only. I didn't like that they put this orange sauce on top - it made it hard to eat. However the sauce they gave on the side was delicious!

When I saw her plate, my jaw dropped--I was instantly jealous! She let me steal a couple of bites, and it was absolutely delicious. It's one of those dishes you could enjoy for breakfast, brunch, or even as a sweet snack. The food was a solid 10/10. Our server, Ben, was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. He took the time to tell us a little about the menu and even suggested we try something different. Looking back... I probably should have listened! The atmosphere was clean, cozy, and inviting. It honestly felt like sitting in your nonna's kitchen--warm, comfortable, and full of charm. We can't wait to come back and work our way through the dinner menu. If brunch was this good, we have a feeling dinner will be just as amazing!

Out of all of my visits, my favorite is the weekend brunch menu. There are so many yummy things to choose from like the breakfast burrito, the banana Forester French toast, the various of Benedict's including crab, and there were a bunch of various breakfast sandwiches, but the most menu appealing one that I liked is the pork roll. On my last trip I wound getting a chicken brie apples bacon on brioche bread. It was a special of the day. From the moment I bid into it, I knew I would love it for the savoriness, the crisp and sweet tasting bread. There was a side of potatoes... Very nicely seasoned and the perfect crunch to them. On my last visit, it was a total of 10 people in our group and the customer service was great. We were all able to pay with separate checks... Always a perk. The waiter was super super friendly and kept our coffee refills going. Inside it is busy which could lead away from the quiet ambience, but I didn't mind it at all.
