Crab Rangoon (another name- Cheese Wontons;  sweet and sour sauce came on the side)
Nancy W.

I have been reluctant to eat at a Chinese takeout store. I grew up in one where my parents owned their Chinese takeout business for 25 years on Long Island, New York before they sold the business. Since then, no other place compares to it and I wasn't ready to try anywhere else. Since I moved here to New Jersey two years ago, my husband craves just good Chinese takeout food and I decided maybe it was time to try. We have tried a few places, but Meiwei East has stood out to be a great Chinese takeout. I have been here a few times and each time, the service has been good. Before Covid happened, the establishment has plenty of room for customers to sit and eat. Since Covid has been taking into caution, the business is doing good to stay safe too, customers can pick up their food contactless. My usual go to is Chicken with Broccoli. They make it good every time. I have also tried their Chicken Chow Fun, Shrimp Lo Mein, and Moo Shu Chicken. My recent favorite has been their General Tso's Shrimp from the Chef's Specialities. The order can be good as leftovers the next day too. Last week, our order was picked up and they forgot to put in the Cheese Wontons. After I spoke to the individual on the phone, he was apologetic and I told him next time we come I'll remind him. Earlier tonight when we ordered our food and came to pick up, he remembered me and told us how sorry he was and added the order of Cheese Wontons in the bag already. Now I have tried it too, and it tastes crisp and delicious too. I was glad he remembered and I didn't think to remind him until another time. Friendly staff, clean, and food is always prepared fresh and good. I missed having Chinese take out food, and I'm glad we can go back to Meiwei East and gives me some nostalgia. Best Chinese food in Clifton if you come by and want to try it out. Always a pleasure to come and support their business.

I usually steer clear of chain restaurants, but after work, I found myself at the mall and decided…read moreto take the easy route for dinner. I'm so glad I did! The service here was excellent! Salome the waitress was so kind and attentive. She went above and beyond to make sure I had a wonderful solo dining experience. Some restaurants overlook solo diners or automatically steer them toward bar seating, so I really appreciated having a proper table where I could relax and enjoy the live jazz band. Now, let's talk about the food! The filet mignon was perfection. I'm usually a ribeye girl, but this was tender, perfectly cooked to a medium temperature and perfectly seasoned that it definitely impressed me. I opted for the three-course dinner, which is an excellent value. The lobster bisque was also outstanding, with a flavorful piece of lobster that made it even better. And a word of advice: don't make the same mistake I did and eat all the bread before your meal arrives! It was so good that I was practically full before dessert even made it to the table. Between the exceptional service, delicious food, and live jazz, this was such a lovely dinner. I'll definitely be back on my next visit!

Live music was fantastic, the band chose different pieces from different genres and compose them as jazz pieces. Service is top tier. The server Danae was wonderful! And the management is sweet and attentive. We went for my birthday celebration and they set aside a nice table for two with birthday decor and a birthday card. She was given a small dessert & given a glass of champagne. We will be back & CAN not rave enough about this Place! Eddie V's is where it's at! And the chefs put other chefs to shame, the food was so good. Management wow !! Ozzy, y'all are setting the bar HIGH for what managers should strive to be. Thank you for an amazing bday celebration dinner!

The older ladies working in the morning were fast and made sure we were all good. I got the classic and it hit the spot. Very much needed and did what it had to do. Good portion, pretty decent price, and lots of different ingredients. I came in feeling not too great and left feeling so much better. The spot itself is your typical Korean restaurant setup. If you look a good proper Korean soup dish, or need some hangover remedy, definitely recommended.

Very spacious restaurant with lots of seatings. We were seated immediately on a Friday night. We all ordered the combo/mix-and-match and the portions were huge!! Loved the seaweed oyster soup and grilled mackerel. Others ordered the LA galbi which was probably one of the best we've had. So flavorful. Seafood pancake was also good. Prices were very reasonable. Staff were very friendly. Service was attentive and fast. Our Korean friend said their kimchi was one of the best she has had. No wonder the restaurant actually sells it in a jar. Only complaint is it's tiny parking in the front but street parking is also available. This restaurant definitely has become one of our favorites.

They do have coffee so that's a plus. And the coffee is made with a French press. Very tasty. They have a good menu. Something for everyone. We started off with the guacamole app and clam chowder. The guacamole is plentiful and tasty. Also the salsa was delish too. My table patrons didn't like the clam chowder. They said it was too salty. For the mains we ordered the roasted chicken, hot chicken sandwich and the Cajun seafood alfredo The Hot chicken was divine and huge. You won't be disappointed with that one. Good amount of spice. The roasted chicken was lemon rosemary jus was delicious as well. I ordered the pasta which was supposed to come with jumbo shrimp and andouille sausage. As soon as I received my dish I asked the waitress where the sausage was, she couldn't answer but went to get her manager. The manager said normally it's under the pasta. Still, no sausage in the pasta. They apologized and made the sausage and added it to the pasta. I wish that was the only issue. The menu states that it's a cajun Alfredo sauce and hate to say but this was just bland. Not flavorful at all. 2 waiters recommended it but I'm not sure why. I'd give it a 2.5 out of 5. The portion size was good but again no real taste. Overall this was a nice place. I just need to study the menu and read more reviews about what to order here.

In my adult years, I've developed a real affinity for classic, old school Italian restaurants,…read moreespecially the kind of places that have been around forever, have stories in the walls, and maybe, just maybe, had a little mob following back in the day. There's just something about them that you can't recreate. Yesterday, my buddies and I were supposed to hit The Belmont Tavern, but they were closed for the week. Rather than scrap the plan, we pivoted to Matthew's Italian Restaurant at the suggestion of one of the guys in the crew. What a great find. We were pleasantly surprised that an old school spot like this had somehow escaped us all these years. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for, the staff was awesome, and most importantly, the food delivered. We came out swinging with Clams Oreganata, Meatballs, Stuffed Mushrooms, Mozzarella Carrozza, and two different types of Ravioli. Needless to say, the table filled up pretty quickly. For dinner, most of the crew went with either the Veal Parm or Chicken Parm. A nice touch is that they'll do the parm with vodka sauce if you want to switch things up. I went with the steak special and had absolutely no regrets. Dessert was on point too, but I'll leave a little something to your imagination. Great food, great service, great old school atmosphere, and exactly the kind of Italian restaurant I'm always looking to discover. Matthew's is officially on our list now. We'll definitely be back soon.
