    Omelette station
    Sarah-Jane R.

    The staff at the restaurant were all wonderful! We had a lovely breakfast celebrating our girlfriend's 50th birthday celebration. Kim and Kristen took care of us and surprised us with mimosas on the house. Kristen served us with a smile and was very attentive.The gentleman who made our omelettes did a great job and customized it to our liking. The breakfast was a buffet style with an array of delicious options. It was a relaxed setting with amazing views!

    THE BREAKFAST BUFFET WAS TO DIE FOR! Sooo many options and everything was delicious

    Came here for dinner and it was so great. We had a 8:30 reservation but were hungry at 7:30 and they took us in earlier. The service was 5 stars and set up is also super cute. I loved it. Food was delicious! Kevin the bartender was amazing!

Even though there was a miscommunication, the staff was more than accommodating and opened for us. My young's are both under 10 and had a blast. I would go to The Underground again next time I'm in the area.

As soon as we sat down, the staff brought over warm bread with a cheesy crust on top, simple but really good, and a nice way to settle in. I started with an Old Fashioned mocktail, which I have to admit just didn't work. After a couple of sips, I gave up on it. I stuck with the mocktail because I was taking medication for a cold, but honestly, I found myself wishing I had just ordered the real version. Once the French onion soup came out, things turned around quickly. It was exactly what I needed, rich, hot, and comforting in all the right ways. Our waiter checked in just enough without hovering, and the rest of the staff was just as attentive. It felt welcoming, whether people were staying at the resort or just coming in for dinner, which added to the relaxed atmosphere. For my main dish, I went with the burger cooked medium-rare, and it hit the mark. Juicy, full of flavor, and paired with crisp fries that were actually seasoned well. Between the quality of the food and the friendly service, the Crystal Tavern left a good impression. I'd definitely go back and try more of the menu next time.

Not that that's a bad thing. The resort is beautiful, and what you see right before entering the restaurant is the lush vegetable garden that provides much of the raw goodies for the menu offerings. The restaurant itself is quite small and intimate, so timed reservations are required. And while we're on the subject of time, keep in mind that certain entrees might take a while to cook. At the time our family dined, there was a 54 oz. steak on the menu that caught our interest. Our server informed us that it would take an hour to cook it to medium doneness, which meant we were sitting for some time before we actually enjoyed it. That said, the steak is absolutely worth it. We split this giant bone-in behemoth of a meat chunk as five adults, and there was more than enough to go around as a heavy appetizer. An almost comical amount of potatoes was served alongside (which was also the case for the seafood platter), along with some grill-charred onion slices. While waiting, we noshed on a fair number of other appetizers and individual entrees, all of which were similar in the quality of preparedness. Some things - like the focaccia and the garden pickles - blew us away in freshness and flavor. Other things, like the octopus and the pork ribs, were decent but left us wanting for more in their tapas-like serving size. Also notable is their service. The servers here work SO hard. We had two of their best dedicated to our large party, and we found them to be attentive, incredibly thoughtful, and well-versed on the menu items.

    We went here on Easter Friday after a long day of work at our new house…read more Smokeys got recommended to us and since we new to area we followed the recommendation. So I have to admit I was starving and hungry but the food was just sucks. We had chicken with mozzarella and tomato bruschetta and mashed potatoes. Chicken was totally over cooked and hard like a stone. Which mostly means is frozen chicken breast ( I mean really you fucked up a chicken cmon what kind of chef you are???) Mashed potatoes only like garlic so I think that was the reason because the used instand one ( I mean really????) My wife had eggplant parmigiana with pasta. Eggplant was soggy .... Good was the salad and the bread for the start but I think only because wasn't made in house. I think fire the chef right now that wasn't anything fancy but he wasn't able to accomplish this easy task. If you need to any time a kitchen and menu consultant please reach out chefsebny.com and I would be glad to help out. Since this place looks like it had some good potential because the inside is nice special with the pizza oven. The Beer selection was ok a lot of ales and IPA which I don't get but ok. It taste flat which mostly comes from not properly cleaned beer lines. Good luck with everything I would NOT recommend this place to anyone out their You better cook at home Its really disappointing when you trying to like a place but you get disappointed every time... The Glenwood is nicely decorated and renovate.. lots of light and light colors. The menu at first looks great but when it comes to execution terrible. Lets start with the Beer menu. I wanted the Paulaner Hefeweizen as stated in the menu and received what i thought first was a Pilsner so I send it back and got exactly the same. Pilsner vs Wheatbeer not the same.. we talked to waitress at the end amd she said all the have is the munich lager from Paulaner. So either you change your menu to paulaner seasonal as is done with some adams or you have the beer on tap matching your actual menu... so that was disappointing and telling a customer I dont drink I don't know doesnt make it better. We ordered the Farmer platter, jersey corn and bacon salad and a brick oven magarita pizza.... Farmers Platter: supposedly Jersey Girl cheese and meats taste more like castco ... there was no jam, butte or honey with it which would make the whole think much better and please leave the canned pepperocini out ... cooking a quick homemade jam doesnt cost much and makes it unique This was by far the best dish out of the 3.. The salad was a disappointing. To much romaine 5 cherry tomatoes ( NJ Is Tomato state no?) some little bites of bacon and corn ( was supposed to be roasted but was as best blanched/cooked) and way to less of that taste less dressing... messing up a salad havent seen that ever ... The pizza was forgotten and arrived 15min after we finished the food ... crust tasted like matzha crust, sauce terrible ... Again the place has nice ambiance now but the food is sucks and the beer menu isnt right ... I do not recommend this place to anyone ... we paid $75 for crappy food..

I got bit by an ant while I was sitting. The ant had managed to crawl up my body to my shoulder and bit me underneath my shirt. I had to deal with that and the flies swarming us during dinner. The table wasn't wiped down and neither were the booths. The cook came out of the kitchen for a bit and must have been sick or something cause he was coughing all over the place and not covering his mouth. This place is just filthy. Overall this place sucked and I really wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemies.
