I met up with my besties and had the best evening! I started with a passion fruit speciality cocktail and enjoyed the free chips and salsa. There is a full bar which is huge and can make any drink you wish. They have some excellent specialty cocktails. We ordered the guacamole and chips before ordering delicious entrees. We also got the corn and split it so we had room for dinner. I had the rib eye special with a chimichurri sauce, spinach mashed potatoes, and veggies. The steak was perfectly medium rare and the sauce was perfection. I never had spinach mash before but felt good about getting some extra iron in my carbs. I didn't love the zucchini, (weird taste) but the other veggies were fine. My friend picked the burger and fries to satisfy their beef craving. The fries were crispy and perfect while my friend said her burger was excellent. Other friend went for the salmon and veggies, she enjoyed it and had to bring some home because it was a big serving. Last friend got the chicken rice bowl special and opted for grilled chicken instead of fried. They were super accommodating about making changes so we had exactly what we wanted. Again, big portion so she is excited to have lunch tomorrow. The music is very lively and the service is excellent. Be sure to stop in but do make reservations. We decided to grab dessert and had the lemon raspberry cake plus some of the homemade sorbet. One cappuccino and a cup of tea made us all happy and we enjoyed a nice leisurely meal. My friends had not been here before and we all plan on coming back soon. There was valet parking, so be aware and bring some cash for tips if you are so inclined. read more

Brunch Experience at Norte 175 I organized an F1 Race Sunday brunch @ Norte 175 with a group of six friends. We called the day before to confirm that in fact they would have ESPN HD and they actually took the time to confirm that they would. Two thumbs up for that. Having visited this restaurant for dinner multiple times, we were excited to explore their brunch offerings, which provide a refreshing change from typical breakfast fare. Norte 175 offers a vibrant and inviting bar-restaurant tmosphere that pairs perfectly with its interesting food combinations. We arrived just before opening as the race started at noon and while it's understandable that restaurants need time to get started, I would recommend arriving a bit later. Menu Highlights Taco Pancakes: This dish was a standout for me, featuring excellent thick bacon strips that complemented the pancakes beautifully. Huevos Rancheros: My partner and several others in our group ordered this, and they all praised the good flavors and quality of the top-shelf meat and sausages. However, the eggs were slightly overcooked, likely because they sat a bit too long before being served. Paella: One member of our group ordered the paella and appreciated its freshness, which added to the overall positive dining. experience. Our member, born in the UK, had the breakfast burrito and commented it was "good". It looked good, but I'm not sure we can trust the opinion of an authentic breakfast burrito to someone who would have prefered bangers and mash. Beverages - hey it's brunch! The group enjoyed some killer Bloody Marys, and a fantastic peach bellini and well crafted mimosas. All very tasty and perfectly mixed. For appetizers we had guacamole (that was fresh) served with chips. Our group tends to like a bit more spice and garlic in our guac. The spice was quickly rectified when we asked for a salsa with more heat. All the salsas appear to be made in the kitchen, and the hot (green chili) salsa was definitely fresh and spicey. The only downside of our visit was the wait time; the food took longer to arrive than expected, and a few plates were not served piping hot. It's evident that the kitchen needs time to hit its stride, but appear to get better as they got busy. Our server(s) did the the best they could, checking on the food and drinks, and were knowledgeable about the menu. I'd give them an "A" for effrort. Pricing This is not where you go for $4 Taylor Ham, egg and cheese sandwich or monster stack of buttermilk pancakes. The prices are more than fair for the quality and unique flavor of the food. Overall, Norte 175 is a great spot for a unique brunch, but I would advise diners to visit a little after opening to allow the team time to get everything up and running smoothly. The quality of the food, combined with a unique menu, makes this restaurant a worthy choice for your next interesting brunch outing. read more

Cory and rustic atmosphere, friendly staff. Plenty of space, bar, outdoor sitting. Went with a group of 6 for early dinner, service was a bit slow especially when it came to drinks. Our food came out good, but shrimp in tacos was bland, add on chicken in Cesar salad over salted (on a bed of halves of whole romaine lettuce). Drinks were fine. Reasonable prices. read more

Throughly enjoyed dinner last night at Norte 175! From the extensive menu, chill vibe, delicious drinks, unique tasting foods and incredible service, this place is not to be missed. Also if you're looking for a place to just grab drinks, there is a separate room with a pool table that's pretty cool. Our server David was on point and gave us great food recommendations. We tried quite a few things from the menu and nothing disappointed us. For the price and quality of food, this new establishment is worth adding to your list, you won't be disappointed! read more

Was trying to find a new restaurant for dinner Saturday n came upon Norte 175 n had good reviews so thought we'd give it a try. A gem in Wharton. Nice restaurant looks like a warehouse from outside but inside looks good w high ceilings. Has a pond w a fountain at the back which was enjoyed by those dining outside. Valet parking. Friendly welcoming staff. Not that crowded at all. They brought out tri color chips w a tasty salsa for table. We had the strawberry mango salad n calamari. Salad was beautifully presented n was v good. Had a nice dressing n generous amounts of strawberries mango pieces n caramelized walnuts. The calamari was tasty too. Had two dipping sauces. For entrees had the eggplant parmigiana n the special rigatoni pasta w shrimp. Lil bit disappointed w eggplant parmigiana as it was dry n wasn't covered w sauce. But it tasted good. The pasta was good n flavorful. All generous portions n we had leftovers to bring home. We topped it off w Key lime pie cake. Oh that was heavenly n just enough for two to indulge. Thank you for a great dinner read more

Last night was the first time I've been back to this location since it was the old Hot Rods. It's still a very cool vibe inside with a beautiful bar. It was a quiet Thursday night so no issue walking in and getting a table. Service was very good. Norte has an excellent drink menu. I went with an espresso martini, my wife and stepson had margaritas. I had a taste of my wife's blackberry margarita and it was delicious! We started off with an appetizer of nachos with chicken. I liked this more than the tacos I ordered for an entree. My wife had a salad with strawberries that looked great, and my stepson had the pulled pork grilled cheese. The dessert menu looked fantastic, but we skipped it for this night. It's good to see this spot back open. One last thing...valet parking only. read more

Came here on Thursday with my wife (who was the first to review ) and had a wonderful dinner! Food: my wife ended up getting a paloma which she really enjoyed for her drinks. As an appetizer, we started with pepper jack mac & cheese which was pretty solid. For dinner she got shrimp pastor tacos which tasted pretty awesome (always a fan of Al pastor) and I got a Sussex meat burger which was out of this world, but I thought was a little bit expensive for having no fries or side. Service: our waitress Ana was amazing, taking care of everyone quickly and was super patient with everyone. Aesthetic: the bar is a really nice feature and very well stocked. The pool room in the back makes for good entertainment and the seating arrangement is great. I definitely recommend this place and I'm glad it's finally open. read more

Went back to Norte 175 - our experience was much better. We had apps & a few drinks. Food was fresh & tasty! Cocktails were crafted very well. It was busy & there were more bartenders behind the bar. Much better! Give this place a try ... they deserve your patronage. read more

Repeat customers. We come for date night and love the food, service, and vibe (a little on the active/loud side, and while we also like subdued/quiet, this is the right amount of music and talk). Server (Mike in this case) was extremely attentive (even though we aren't demanding). Will certainly return again. read more

Here's the deal: my review is based on 2 visits to the bar! There is a full menu service at the bar as well. Really loved the restaurant. I've mostly had appetizers, but other tables of food looked great! Busy weekend looked like they have valet! Also a dirt lot across the street (no lighting). Good spot definitely be back read more

Really, really great spot! From the ambience to the service, we had such a great time. Definitely make reservations. We tried the pineapple mango guacamole (delicious and fresh), Tuna tartare, and tostones and everything was so good. The guac was definitely my favorite, and I want to try their bacon and corn guac! Entrees we got a mix of everything - tacos, sandwiches, pastas, and steak and everyone had only positive things to say. My shrimp & chorizo orzo was DELICIOUS! Highly recommend. For dessert we got the Nutella empanadas and we licked the plate clean. Overall, such a great spot. My only "negative" comment was the red sangria was not too good. I'm a big sangria buff and try it everywhere I go, and this needs a bit of a change. It was way too bitter and didn't taste too fresh. read more

I was interested to try this new spot in Wharton, let me tell you it exceeded my expectations! Everything we had was delicious. My favorite appetizer was the Coconut Shrimp, the Grilled Skirt Steak was cooked to perfection, & the Tres Leches Cake was one of the best I've ever had. They also have a wild selection of cocktails. I got the margarita flight (which was not on the menu but you can ask if available). The ambiance was so nice and I was so happy to see the restaurant was so lively with patrons! I truly cannot wait to visit again real soon! read more

Atmosphere is great. Food is good. Waiter was great until he started ignoring us and we had to chase him down. I hate that. It ruins the whole experience when they don't clear plates or offer a dessert menu. read more

1st time eating here. An absolutely terrible experience !!! There was no one at door when we arrived, and had to wait more than 5 minutes until a hostess decided to wander over to the front door so we could be seated. Food was a joke. Cheap on the chips, half filled bowl for a table of four. Ordered Coconut Shimp as an appetizer after we asked our waiter how many came with an order, he said 6. When it arrived there were only 5, Ceasar Salad was joke, lettuce was just dumped on the plate with chicken dumped on top. Tacos were even worse. 1/2 filled with chicken / "steak" / fish (3 different orders), no lettuce on the side (as in their pics), and the cole slaw slide was again 1/2 filled and one of us had to ask for it as it was left off the plate. Tortillas, which were flour not corn as advised, fell apart when they were picked up, so we had to eat them with a fork. $20+ for Tacos, which were no better than those at Taco Bell, seems ridiculous. When we received our check, they charged for a higher priced wine than what we had, plus they added an up charge to the bill as well, and it was not noted anywhere that we could find. $180 for 1 appetizer, 4 terrible meals, 4 drinks, tax & tip. They will never see us again, and would advise the same for anyone even thinking about going there. read more

An absolute must! We dined here last night for the first time, and already can't wait to go back. Complimentary valet is offered when you pull up which sets the tone for an upscale yet casual tavern setting with a Tex-mex style menu. Everything we tried was better than the next. Their full bar offers a variety of yummy cocktails including margarita and tequila flights. I couldn't believe how busy it was, but simply no surprise. Definitely great for special occasions or a date night out. read more

Open less than a month, Norte 175 on North Main Street in Wharton, is a bit of a hipster venue with an interesting vibe. Live music and a focus on craft cocktails and a menu of burgers, tacos, wood-fired pizza. Our server Noah went out of his way to welcome us and be helpful. I started with the Steamed Clams w/ White Wine, Garlic & Parsley. Spices were a great blend with the tasty clams. Loved this as a starter. For our mains, we tried the Main Street Burger & the Chipolte Wedge Salad. Both missed the mark, as the burger was over-cooked and the Bun was kinda crusty, not sure if it was not fresh but it was blah. Now the Chipolte Wedge was a miscalculation on my part. The most effective way to ruin a perfect wedge salad is dousing it with a spicy, pedestrian Chipolte dressing. Stick with what makes the Wedge Salad a winner, lots of bacon and Blue Cheese Dressing! I think this place may be just going through some growing pains, and is trying to hard to make its menu different. I would not be afraid to give it another chance! read more

Beautiful restaurant, great atmosphere! Really lively lovely restaurant. Food was ok. Some loved their dish, some not so much. Our service was slow and a bit inattentive (thought a college student would hustle more) but another server Pete picked up the slack. I would definitely give it another try. It was very busy and maybe it was just an off night. So I would say try it out.! Giving it 4 stars for nice atmosphere. read more

This place was a pretty solid find while visiting family. I can see why it's popular, and I'd certainly appreciate having something like this closer to home. The bar has a stylish, inviting ambiance, perfect for a relaxed evening. We enjoyed their margaritas, which were a definite highlight. The coconut and berry flavors were both refreshing, and the tiered pricing (standard, premium, Cadillac) offered decent value. For appetizers, we shared the guacamole (delicious, though more chips would have been appreciated!), octopus, wings, and a flavorful shrimp and chorizo orzo dish (entree) all quite good. Our main courses were mostly impressive: well-cooked salmon, tender skirt steak, succulent ribs (good but not fall off the bone if that matters to you), and a flavorful ribeye. Even the pizza my nephew ordered was a decent choice. We finished with a delightful dessert spread of cheesecake, churros, and sorbet. While our primary server was adequate, another staff member was exceptionally attentive and helpful, really enhancing our experience. The live two-person band, starting around 9:30, added a lively atmosphere, and the pool table was a fun bonus. I'd likely return if I were in the area again. read more

I was skeptical of this place as I am with every new place, but I was SUPER impressed and pleasantly surprised with my experience here. The waiter we had and bartender was so nice and attentive. We ordered the key lime pie and I forgot to mention my dad's raspberry allergy; he brought it out and had no problem taking it back to give us a new dessert without raspberry drizzle. The burger was SO GOOD like super smokey and juicy, just wish I asked for spicy mayo or something. Wings could've been more hot but still really good even at room temp. I can only imagine how crazy this place gets at night and when it's busy. Really weird building but feels like a hidden gem. I got the Paper Plane cocktail (twice) so good, def stronger the second time lol. My dad said his Corona was ice cold. I will definitely be back. read more

A delicious new option for the area!! Went with friends last night, and couldn't have been happier! Our server wasn't great, but it may have been he was overwhelmed with the crowd. The bacon corn guacamole was perfect start. Around the table was the fish tacos (said to be delicious- I didn't try), Steak tacos very good, ribeye was delicious, but the star of the night was the skirt steak. Perfectly tender and the chimichurri was bright and flavorful. The cilantro rice was also a big hit - wish we had ordered 2. A fun cool vibe for a night out with friends, family, or if I get my say any night of the week I don't feel like cooking. read more

Had an overall disappointing experience. Our drinks were so- so Guacamole and salsa were bland. But, worse of all were our entries. I ordered Cajun shrimp over creamy pesto linguinie. The shrimp were bland - no hint of any Cajun spice. The pasta was dressed in some kind of green sauce but there no hint of basil, garlic,pine nuts or cheese. My partner ordered Cajun rigitoni with a skewer of shrimp. It arrived at table without the shrimp. The pasta was just Ok.., but not anywhere as flavorful as you would expect fron a "Cajun" dish. The place looks great, but is a bit pretentious. The food needs needs a lot of work. The service was lackluster. And oh, they only have valet parking. read more

I had lunch here with a friend and was very happy with the food, the atmosphere and our server. We started with tortilla chips and their homemade salsa. I can usually take or leave salsa, but this was so good that we asked for a refill. We shared the appetizer sized guacamole and the portion was generous. I had the fish tacos and my friend had the shrimp tacos. Both were delicious. read more

Nice staff and atmosphere but sadly unimpressive cuisine. The fish tacos were just OK nothing to write Home about. Our friend ended up having to pay two dollars extra for a little thing of jalapeño sauce. You would think they would just give that to you with the meal. The paella looked good, the clams were great actually, however, I took it home and doctored it with butter, garlic, and a little wine And it was 1000% better. I had to ask for old bay at the table just to give it a little bit of flavor. Anytime you can Dr something at home and make it better than the actual chef, you know there's room for improvement. read more

This is a difficult review. My family had dinner mid week thinking it couldn't be too busy. almost everything was slow. Drinks, appetizers and especially dinner which took a whole hour to be served. That experience alone wouldn't be worth more than one star. However, the restaurant redeemed themselves by the quality of the food and taste. I give three stars with the hope that next time the service will improve. I hope so. read more

Octopus and steamed clams appetizers were very good. Fish and carnitas tacos were ok. We ordered the Traditional Guacamole appetizers but was accidentally given the Norte Nachos which came with pico de gallo which had some guacomole in it. We asked the waiter if it was the correct dish and he confirmed it was the guacamole dish we ordered. In any case, we ate it anyways. Only valet parking is available. read more

first of all the servers were great and the food was very good. We had a very unusual experience. we had a reservation for four and got seated. behind us was a large party and they were all standing. within inches of my chair. didn't move or say anything. we even asked to be moved to another table but was told no. these people were downright rude and wouldn't budge. the one woman was within earshot of me. it was very uncomfortable. I think that that management should have said please have a seat. it was only later that the one woman told us it was a surprise party for her grandfather. well excuse me. Why were you standing a half hour before he got there AND she told me to knock it off! What a nasty individual. It did partially ruin my dining experience. Some people shouldnt go out. Totally classless. Even the servers said it was rude Disappointing read more

Absolutely delicious. The ambiance takes you back in time yet has a beautiful modern flare. Best guacamole and shrimp ceviche I've had. The portions are generous which we were so grateful for! Our servers were professional and personable, yet they allowed us to enjoy our time prior to ordering and in between courses. We will be back! Please don't let the sink hole situation on 80 deter you from going- it's worth the extra 10 minute drive to enjoy your time here. Parking is fantastic and again, the ambiance is great!!! read more

Super excited to have another restaurant in town! I love what they did with the space - huge bar and lots of seats. Great drink menu from wines, to cocktails, and draft beer.

Norte 175 - Shrimp tacos - Pizza Near Me - Wharton, New Jersey

Norte 175 was a miss for us. Valet parking for my car that was 20 feet away from us? The attendant literally handing over our keys and saying, "Your car is right there". Made no sense. The drinks were good for the entire group but nothing else surpassed that. My grilled skirt steak was cooked nicely but had no flavor, as did the side of mashed potatoes. Chicken wings were ok, no discernible pop of flavor. Tostones app was good but we wanted more. Sitting outside in the back pretty much makes you an after thought. You have the pond/lake on one side and the view of the generator, garbage and resident raccoon popping out of the roof on the other. Service was friendly but took way too long to get our food. Trying to get the staff to bring our check and flag down the waiter to pay (and get our credit cards back) took almost 25 minutes. I'd come for a drink at the bar if in the area but won't eat here again. read more
