    Came in here just to grab something quick for my kid to eat. She wanted a buffalo chicken wrap. Poorly made. It's just chicken thrown in a tortilla wrap. And they put potatoes in it without saying anything about it. Nobody wants potatoes in a wrap. Like seriously. A fucking shit show. Messy as fuk and not quite that appealing. Disappointed to say the least but not surprised.

    Greek Salad

    Being old school, I remember Hansel 'n Griddle from their days in a small hole in the wall on the side street. I was happy to see it's grown and evolved. I stopped in to this location and while in the past I would grab the Rajun Cajun wrap but this time, I tried the Greek salad with Cajun chicken and the seasoned potato wedges. Ok I had no business getting the potato wedges because I'm on a diet but they were amazing. They were perfectly seasoned and bomb with some ketchup. The Greek salad was pretty good as well. The salad was plentiful. I got it with the homemade balsamic vinaigrette which was a perfect addition. The chicken on the Greek salad was not the best. It was rubbery like microwaved chicken. Hansel n Griddle will always be a great lunch spot with sandwiches, salads, and wraps. Their large menu makes it a good choice lunch options. The service, however, is not the best. The guy at the counter scrolled on his phone the whole time until someone in the back nudged him to take my order. Sometimes it's to be expected from a college town.

    I stopped by Hansel 'n Griddle around 3:45 PM after a short 10-minute walk from my apartment. Parking in the area is easy, and there wasn't much of a crowd, so I got my food quickly. The server was friendly, welcoming, and helpful from the start. I ordered the Honey BBQ Panini, which came with grilled chicken breast, crispy bacon, Cajun home fries, and melted cheddar and jack cheese topped with homemade honey BBQ sauce. The chicken was juicy, and the sauce added the perfect sweet-smoky flavor. Even though I'm not usually a fan of wedges, I really enjoyed them here. Prices are affordable I only spent $22.12, portions are filling, and the menu has plenty of variety. Next time I'll try the fried Oreos! Overall, Hansel 'n Griddle has great food and service, and I'll definitely be going back.

    The fluffiest pancakes ever! The eggs left much to be desired, but the bacon was nice a crispy as requested.

    Great service , a lil more than basic food. I feel like they play it safe when it comes to meshing flavors. It doesn't stand out. But overall decent. Great local ambiance. Good wings

    Food was tasty and fairly priced. Portions were just right not too much that you could finish, not too small that you wanted more. French toast was good and the honey bbq chicken panini was pretty solid. Was disappointed that I couldn't have some extra honey-bbq sauce without being charged. Cute place, seating was good for a quick meal.

    So glad I stopped by here for a late dinner! Hansel 'n Griddle has a variety of options from pancakes to quesadillas to wraps. I ordered the garden crisp quesadilla and despite ordering at 10:00 PM, I was shockingly surprised at how well it was made. It had the perfect amount of cheese, veggies, and was very warm. The employees were also super friendly and patient while waiting for indecisive me to choose! This will definitely be my go to place for quesadillas and will be back to try more stuff on their menu! Ordered: September 8, 2022 via Dining-In

    Angus burger, pita and guac, Chile burger, grilled cheese
    Joyce K.

    Hansel n' Griddle has an interesting setup where you stand in line at the counter to order and then seat yourself in the location if you choose to dine in. They even have a barrel of free pickles by the front if you're a fan of pickles. We got an angus burger, pita and guac, a chile burger, and a grilled cheese. The burgers were pretty good and the home fries were flavorful! The pita and guac was also delicious, but I thought that the grilled cheese would be larger than it actually was.

    Grilled cheese with tomato and avocado

    This place has really great quick, to-go, filling meals. I have had their tater tots before and they're super good! Pictured is their grilled cheese, and I added tomato and avocado to it - a perfect combo. Hansel n' Griddle always has extremely quick delivery but also in-store service and their food never disappoints. With an extensive menu, there is always something you can find. Highly recommend for anyone in the New Brunswick area for a true grub craving.

    H&G Crisps are just square shaped quesadillas
    Katy Q.

    For the many years I have schooled and lived locally to Rutgers, I have never been here, thinking it was just a pancake place, and I don't really like pancakes. So this weekend, thanks to my dear husband's craving for their "Roast Beef Special", I found out that H&G is not a pancake place. Its a no frills, but delicious American grill place. Super easy to walk in and order, got myself a BBQ Bacon chicken crisp (aka quesadilla), my husband's special (aka wrap) and two bottles drinks for 22 bucks. Food came super quick. We barely sat down on their outdoor table before the staff came to deliver our takeout food. Short drive home and ate it while warm. I was pleasantly surprised. It doesn't look like much, being square and all, but the meat chunks were tender and sliced just right, with the gooey cheese spaced out evenly with the tangy BBQ sauce. I didn't even need the sour cream (chose that over salsa), since it was already so flavorful as is. This place went from underestimated, to on my list for quick eats in the area.

Every bite had that classic smash burger flavor: juicy beef, caramelized crust, and just the right balance of toppings without overcomplicating it. The fries were solid too -- hot, crispy, and the perfect sidekick to the burger. Overall the spot has a chill, no-nonsense burger joint vibe where the focus is clearly on doing smash burgers right with great service. If you're in New Brunswick and craving a proper smash burger, this place definitely hits the spot. Would 100% come back to try the shakes next time.

They made the food fresh, it it took mad long for there to be absolutely no one in here. I used the bathroom and was welcomed by a bowl full of piss. The service started off cool but once I notified the cashier that she charged me for fries I didn't order, she acted like I made the mistake. The best part is, you go and pick up your food by reaching over the garbage cans. The cheese fries were 10 out of 10... A nice amount of cheese whiz, plus the fries were like the coated type of fries so they were able to withstand the Cheese and maintain their integrity throughout. The wings were an 8 out of 10, I love the crispness of the wings, and the flavor, plus the garlic Parm sauce was really good, but I just wish they would've poured the sauce on the wings directly. Nonetheless, they were really good and worth ordering again.. My Son said the burrito is an 8 out of 10. I got the triple smash, and it was kinda good, however, the OG sauce is something I could go without never having again in my life and be very happy. 7/10 The milkshakes aren't bad either. I like that they were thick yet smooth at the same time if that makes sense. Although the last quarter of My Son's shake was straight ice cream that he needed a spoon to finish. also, they use paper straws that get soggy by the time you get to the end of the shake. 5.5/10 Overall, this wasn't a bad experience. The food was definitely the savior here after the trash service and horrible smells. I can just see why everyone got their food to go. If we were here for all of 45 minutes to an hour, about five customers came in to either pick up online orders via food carriers, or came in and ordered to go. Next time I'll Uber Eats.

A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

As for ambiance, it's a bar, has TV, liquor, beer, etc., but clean. If I was local I'd be a regular!

When I approached the register, the employee asked who I was picking up for. I showed her the order information on my phone, and she checked it before walking away. The problem was that she never came back or gave me any update. I was left standing there waiting, assuming the order was still being prepared. After waiting longer than necessary, I had to approach another employee to find out what was happening. I was then told that my food had actually been ready for several minutes. That was frustrating because a simple update or acknowledgment would have avoided the entire situation. What bothered me most was that when I finally brought up the issue, instead of acknowledging the inconvenience, I felt like I was being brushed off with a quick "have a good night." I understand that restaurants can get busy, and I'm not expecting perfect service every time. However, basic communication, attentiveness, and respect go a long way especially when someone is simply trying to pick up an order. I'm leaving this review because the pickup process needs improvement. Management should make sure employees are communicating with customers and following through after asking them for their order information. A little better customer service would make a big difference.
