5/17/26: Always had a wonderful experience at Sonoma Bistro Bar & Grill…read more Today was the first time ever for Brunch. Overall, it was an excellent experience. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The place always has a cool indoor and outdoor vibe! The patio seating has colorful umbrellas on the ceiling. Please check out my video. It was such a beautiful day we had wanted to eat outside. Outside seating was packed. However, the manager brought a table out to the patio for us. Talk about excellent customer service! We had a delicious meal: Banana French Toast and a Pernil Benedict along with a Coconut Mojito and Cosmo. During our visit, the server kept coming around filling everyone's glasses with water. Besides HH & Dinner, Sonoma Bistro & Grill is great for brunch!

I had the El Diablo. Took a torch to my drink before serving it to me. Delicious. Nice and Smokey flavor. I had the steak and shrimp for dinner everything was flavored well just personally needed a bit more rice and black beans the portion served was a bit small in my opinion. Their lychee martini was delicious. Always try it if the restaurant offers it. I'd definitely stop again next time I'm in the area and try their other dishes and drinks.

We love this place. We recently found out about it because we saw a few social media videos talking…read moreabout their daily specials and new management which enticed us because we didn't know much about what they offered before. They have great happy hour specials and staff who are there to honor the deals and give you a fun experience. Nothing worse than walking into a bar because of an advertised deal and the bartender charging you full price because they didn't know anything about the deal. That doesn't happen here which is huge!!! They have multiple TVs and seating areas, which make it perfect for watching sports. Drinks are great and food is delicious. We love the chicken quesadilla and wings. The espresso martini was surprisingly good. We love their drink pitchers as well. Overall you can tell they care about the community, and want to offer a reliable and fun experience in an area that doesn't have too many bars like this. We have returned multiple times since the first time because we love the consistency, fun events, and friendly staff. The only thing they could improve on is the music. When there's a DJ, it's a great night, but when it's up to Touch Tunes there's room for improvement. We still will return whenever we are looking for a good time!

They had a DJ play music the whole fight card except for the last main match. I mean, they should just have him play between rounds or something. The pork sliders were cold too but the server was good and consistent throughout the night with cold beers.

I've only been once bc I moved out of town but I would definitely go back when in the area again! It's fun and a great atmosphere. Friendly staff and pretty quick service!

It has a local/dive bar feel to it but it is redone and clean and beautiful! Better than I ever expected! I walked in to my favorite classic rock jam playing and they just kept em coming. There were people there and socially distanced of course, but it wasn't crowded. It was just perfect. The food was fantastic. The drinks were great. The staff was adorable and very sweet and took great care of us. I really really enjoyed myself, my dinner, my company and this bar/restaurant! I would drive the 20 minutes there again any day. The vibe itself was enough to make me want to go hang out there. I really had a blast. The salads looked incredible. I got the peel and eat shrimp and a banging potato soup and a few cocktails. Highly highly recommend!

This place reminded me of "Cheers," where everybody knows your name. You can tell the locals…read morefrequent this place for its homey and reliable essence. I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting much when I ordered the Manhattan on their menu. And while they use a maraschino cherry vs. a luxardo, which is typically a telltale sign of quality, it was a really good drink -- not overly sweet or sharply boozy. The food was also solid. They offer your regular bar food like wings, mozzarella sticks, and burgers, but also salads made with actual mixed greens and not just iceberg lettuce. Their fries were good, as well as the quesadilla, chicken fingers and steak salad (although crazy spicy so beware). The bartenders were so friendly, it must be a good place to work. I loved the retro atmosphere, and will be back to sit out on the patio next time!

In 26+ years of living in NJ, I had no idea there was a huge sports bar teeming with Knicks fans, & featuring hi def television screens mounted literally in every direction, including up! Add to this an oversized menu with too many delicious sounding food & drink options to decide on ... Following tonight's Knicks record setting, series clinching blowout vs. the upstart Atlanta Hawks, MRH became my #1 "go to" destination to drink & stuff my face, while binge-ing on the evening's "must watch" College & Pro sports events. In other words.. You gotta' check this place out!

Posting here too because it seems like the reviews we left on Google are being taken down?…read more I never write negative reviews. My philosophy is that if something happened that needs the attention of a manager or owner, do so in the moment so something can be done then and there. However, speaking with the owner about his did not solve anything. If anything, it made one fact irrevocably clear, The Rock is not a safe space. For ANYONE. Period. Full stop. The context: this past weekend, on Saturday 8/8/26, my partner, friends, and I were targeted and verbally harassed with homophobic slurs by a man at the bar. What made it so much worse was that the owner, Brian, was standing with the man (later identified as Rich) and woman with dark hair and arm tattoos (who Brian says he has "no idea who we are talking about," which is weird because they DEFINITELY knew each other and were enjoying each others company, the three of them.) Brian, the owner, stood there and did absolutely nothing. Not a word was said to his friend or the woman. He stood there and watched as a group of PAYING customers were being harassed. He watched his patrons get humiliated and chose his friends over his business. We contact the owner, Brian, and he said that he would call us back on MONDAY to "make it right." Well, it is now Monday and we received a non-apology. He said he had spoken to Rich the next day. When asked why Brian didn't do anything in the moment, he said "I know my friend and when he's drunk like that I can't." So again, he chooses his own comfort instead of standing up for his paying guests. When asked why he supported his homophobic friend, he said, "he's not homophobic! His wife is bi!" Outing his friend's wife was not the apology I was expecting to get, but that's what we got. Without taking ANY accountability, he insisted that The Rock isn't "that" type of place. I keep thinking about how easily it could have been anyone else. Someone smaller. Someone younger who didn't have anyone else around with them. What if his friend had had more to drink? What was to stop him from doing more? Definitely not the owner. Now, if you own a business, the BAREST of minimums is to make sure your guests are safe. Brian failed at that completely, and I don't want anyone else to find th out the hard way. The Rock is NOT safe for anyone.

Brunch at The Whiskey Priest is what happens when Sunday decides to be fun instead of responsible…read more The vibe walking in? Lively, upbeat, and just the right amount of "we earned this." It's got that cool gastro-pub feel where you can sip a cocktail at noon and no one judges you, in fact, they encourage it. Now let's talk about the real star of the show: the Breakfast Burrtios! We ordered them, and let me tell you, this wasn't some dainty little wrap. This was a full on, two hands required, no talking for five minutes situation. Packed with all the breakfast essentials and wrapped up like a gift to humanity, it was hearty, flavorful, and exactly what brunch dreams are made of. Every bite basically said, "You made the right decision today." The rest of the menu has all the brunch classics with a fun twist, and everything coming out of the kitchen looked like it deserved its own photoshoot. The drinks were flowing, the crowd was buzzing, and the whole place had that contagious weekend energy. If you're looking for a brunch spot in Belleville that delivers great food, good vibes, and a breakfast burrito that might require a post meal nap, The Whiskey Priest is your place. Just come hungry and maybe wear stretchy pants! Haha!

Any old-timers out there remember when this was The Nutley Pub? (As one Yelper wrote, "Not the…read moreclassiest bar but..." - which perfectly summed up the last place.) Now going strong for well over a decade (?!) - Cowan's is classy and cool and leans into its strengths. Easily the hippest and most-happening spot in Nutley (and the surrounding towns) for the 'mature crowd' that's probably more interested in mash and hops and wort than getting hammered and making bad decisions at last call. The (ever rotating) beers on tap are stellar. The selection of bottles (of the harder stuff) on the picturesque back bar are eye-catching (even if I never heard of half of them). (After a few visits I still haven't tried the food. One of these days I'll get around to that, I promise.) Recommended, for sure.
