Food was great. Batter is homemade for the fish and appetizers. The spinach dip has a spicy kick to it. A great dipping sauce for the appetizer. Asked for ranch and didn't even need it. Service was amazing and a comfortable atmosphere. Will be going back to try the chicken wings and the Philly sandwich. Great music playing on jukebox. Raspberry iced tea was good too. read more

Very kind staff! My salad was very fresh! Also my ice tea was very good! Cute little vibe in Newman! Glad I stopped by!

Food was very good - friendly service and good music (70's). Avocado tomato and grilled cheese sandwich and steak sandwich - yummy!

We stopped by for a out stop on our way home from a trip to Arnold. It was perfect for my family with toe small kids. They could not have been more friendly and welcoming. The food was also excellent and the woman who runs the kitchen clearly knows what she is doing. My wife LOVED her fish tacos and my blue chicken bacon sandwich hit the spot! Too bad we don't live in town, we would be regulars! read more

Food quite tasty. Portions good. Dessert delicious ! Waitress awesome. Served food for 12 pretty much at the same time. Going again soon

Service was excellent, our waitress, Auggie was delightful. My husband and I visited on a whim. Looking for fried fish and glass of wine on a Friday. The best part it was local. Didn't even expect it in Newman but there they are on Main Street. I ordered the fish and chips, my husband ordered the Philly cheesesteak. The fish was delicious, the cod was tender cooked to perfection. My husband not so much, iykyk, we are Philadelphia natives so needless to say the bread was the problem. The taste was good, nice and cheesy but the bread. Definitely would go again, but the fish is always going to be my go to!!!! read more

I would highly recommend this grill to anyone looking for a scratch made delicious meal. The service is great and atmosphere welcoming. By far one of the best places to eat on the Westside. read more

Really happy to have the Mason Jar in Newman. I've eaten there a half dozen times and I've yet to be disappointed. Service, additionally, is friendly and fantastic! There's nothing exotic about the Mason Jar -- and that's a good thing. There's a "home town" vibe to the place and I hope they retain that as their business grows. It's just a comfy place to eat. read more

Historic St George Hotel building, so ambiance is good but food is nothing to brag about and overpriced. Service is ok sometimes but my last visit, was not good at all! My visits for lunch were better than the dinner hours. read more

A very nice diner inside of a historic hotel. The waitress was so nice & always asked if we were okay & needed anything else. One of the best I've ever encountered. Food was very good too. I'd recommend it. read more

Located in the historic St. George hotel on Main. Cool details like stained glass windows remain from the original building. Allegedly haunted by a family with a young daughter. They didn't visit us so I can neither confirm or deny. Service was very friendly and the food was great. A less expensive alternative to Harris Ranch on the drive to LA. Will be back. read more

Our food was very good, the service was on point and the ambiance is great. It's good to have a nice restaurant in our town! We will be back for weekend breakfast. read more

This place is kind of snuck up on us. I guess they've been in town for a couple years. We never tried them surprised more people don't go there. Ever since we first tried them a couple weeks ago we've been going back once or twice a week. The burgers are terrific. They have the best deep-fried zucchini I've ever had which is a family favorite. read more

Ordered a chicken club, extra chicken with garlic fries. It was very good. Staff were nice.

Mason's Jar and Grill is about the fourth or fifth restaurant to occupy the bottom floor of the St. George Hotel in Newman in the 22 years that I have lived here. I hope they succeed in staying, as it must be difficult to get an adequate number of customers to stay open. Have been in twice since MJ&G opened, and the food is well prepared. So far we have tried the fish and chips, prawns and chips, cheesesteak sandwich, and chicken tenders. Everything was tasty, if I had to complain about anything it would be that the portions are on the lighter side given the prices. But the flavor is excellent as is the service. I am docking a star for small portions. I will return since it is in such a small group of restaurants in Newman worth going to. But I would suspect that it is hard for any restaurant to make a go of it here because the bottom line is that Newman has a small customer base. read more

I was excited to try this location out, but unfortunately, it was underwhelming. The mushroom appetizer that we had was good. The fish tacos needed more sauce and seasoning. The salmon that we ordered was slightly overcooked. The server was nice but it took forever to come out. They are your small-town bar. They may be better on a busier night. Not sure if I would revisit this location. read more

Augie was a terrific personable waitstaff. She chatted with us and made us feel comfortable. She brought refills of drinks promptly. Deep fried mushrooms were HUGE and crisp ---deee lish! With tasty ranch and interesting chipotle-like dip with a slight kick, a perfect pairing for our appetizer. Onion soup was flavorful. French dip sandwich was savory. Meat was tender even when leftovers microwaved next day. Very happy to have discovered this new go-to pillar in Newman . Can't wait to try breakfast !! read more

Our first visit was tonight. We had heard they serve an awesome fish and chips. My wife had that tonight and I had a cup of Navy Bean soup and a small salad. The fish and chips were good as well as my soup and salad. Service was very good and the atmosphere was pleasant. We will be back again. read more

We popped by here during my dogs vet visit. Food and drinks were really good. The bartender and everyone at the bar were super nice. Has a nice homey vibe that I can't compare to anywhere else. I would recommend and will definitely be back next time my dogs need a vet visit read more

The atmosphere! Their wine list leaves a lot to be desired. The acoustics are bad in there. It's very noisy when you go to dinner you want a quiet nice dinner, but the acoustics don't allow for that. read more

Nice little place with good food and service. Is clean and new inside a very lovely renovated historical hotel.

We had a wonderful lunch and enjoyed exceptional customer service. Our sandwiches had just enough filling and the torta rolls perfectly toasted. My husband raved about his tater tots and we both look forward to returning soon! read more

Great food and amazing service the steak sandwich was amazing! We also had the fish tacos that were amazing, tasted super fresh and crispy!

Amazing service! Thank you Liz! :) I got the Shrimp Tempura, which was perfectly cooked, delicious and I would get it again, for sure. I also loved the atmosphere and the lighting - very relaxing kind of setting. Two thumbs up! :) read more

The staff and owners seem to be nice people and polite. It's nice to have another choice here in town. That being said food was OK not over the top. Portions were relatively small in regards to price for what you get in my opinion was a bit overpriced. Again it's nice to have a place you're in town but they should really consider putting a nice big steak sandwich on the menu. Sometimes people would rather pay a few more bucks and get something. That is a nice steak sandwich. Marty's was always the go to what a huge loss When they closed. But as time goes on, hopefully the owner will introduce a Marty's steak sandwich. I think it would be a huge hit. Again the only complaint I have was portion size and the fish and chips were a bit rubbery the fish anyway. Tartar sauce was good. All in all I will go back again, but hopefully the owner reads this and thinks about something similar to Marty's. It was such a huge hit for so many years in this area. read more

so good go to this place right now so delicious chicken strips and mozzarella sticks are delicious

My husband, my friends, and I have been to the Mason Jar many times: the food is excellent, the service is wonderful, the ambiance is delightful. I cannot recommend this new restaurant strongly enough. I am so glad they opened their doors in Newman. read more
