Girls' night rule #1: pick a place with a vibe. Girls' night…read morerule #2: the food better back it up. Burke's Tavern understood the assignment. None of us had been before, so we walked in blind, except not really, because the second we stepped inside the vibe hit us. Dimmed lights (but not "can't read the menu" dim), candles glowing, plants everywhere, music just loud enough to feel cool but not loud enough to ruin the gossip. Cozy. Chill. Cute. The holy trinity. It wasn't packed, so we had seating options and landed at a round table in the middle: elite positioning, honestly. Door and front windows on one side, bar view on the other. Prime people-watching real estate. Now let's discuss the important part: the food. We ordered strategically (read: everything we wanted). Lamb meatballs - 10/10. Holy crap. I don't know who is back there doing what, but please continue. Burrata pizza - absolutely delicious. Gone in record time. Gochu-Crispy-Chikin - no notes. Million Dollar Chicken - appropriately named. Fish 'N' Chips - zero complaints across the table. And that's the thing: not a single person in the group had an issue. No side-eye. No "it's good, but..." Just clean plates and happy energy. Now. Parking? Disrespectful. It's on a corner (love that), but finding parking took effort (do not love that). Would I let that stop me? Absolutely not. Parking be damned. I will circle. I will walk. I will manifest a spot. Because this place is such a vibe that it's already secured a return visit -- brunch is calling, and I need to see what this place feels like when the weather warms up. Girls' night/date night/ANY night approved.

We were in Newark a late afternoon on a Sunday and looking for a burger. Went to another famous…read morelocal place and it was closed so decided to try Burke's Tavern. The atmosphere and restaurant look great. It has a good vibe and the service was great. Let me tell you about the burger, not the best, they give you a slider size patty, overcooked and served on a bun that comes apart when you grab it. I'm not sure about the rest of the menu, but not a burger place. Now the chocolate cake with the raspberry ice cream--wow! This was the best part of the meal. I'm giving this place 4 stars even though I didn't like the burger because that's all I tried. I'll come back and revise this rating up/down if I come back and try other menu items. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

After a long day, we were looking for something comforting to eat, and since we both love pizza,…read moreTony's Pizzeria felt like the perfect choice. We stumbled upon it on TikTok and Yelp and almost immediately knew we had to go. We are so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted with a friendly hello and genuinely attentive service. The staff took their time explaining the menu, encouraged us to look things over, and offered recommendations without making us feel rushed. One of the best parts of the experience was the atmosphere. You can instantly tell Tony's is a true neighborhood staple. People were constantly coming in and out, and it was especially sweet seeing kids stopping by after school to grab a slice. It gave the place such an authentic and welcoming feel. The food was exactly what we needed. It was fresh, delicious, and full of that classic pizza-shop comfort. This ended up being the very first place we ate on our trip, and it set the bar high. We absolutely loved it and would highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. With love from Georgia

This pizza parlor (does anyone use that term anymore?!) has been going strong for decades…read more To be honest I was always partial to Nino's III in Kearny - much closer to where I used to live and their chicken-and-broccoli slice was a thing of beauty. (I believe Nino's II existed for a quick moment up there in North Arlington but my memory ain't what it used to be.) After driving past (the original) Nino's on the way home from work for the last few months I realized I was overdue for a visit. First thing: from the outside it looks a bit weathered but inside? It's vibrant and lively and eased my initial concerns. (As soon as I walked in at the very first table was a little kid and his abuela. He made it a point to interact with me coming and leaving and that kid made my day... he's getting 5-stars for being awesome!) As for the pizza... it's a respectable "large" - they ain't skimping, which is a nice change of pace. (Hats off to the pizzaiolo because it wasn't a true/normal/expected circle but something closer to a Reuleaux triangle mixed with a squircle.) Geometry aside... the pie tasted good. Nothing flashy or fancy - just a legit (thin) pie. The (steak) fries were a bit bland and boring, I can't lie. And their cavatelli and broccoli was... decent. It would've benefited from a bit more 'pop' (salt, olive oil, garlic, you name it.) I haven't been here in eons and I hope they'll be around for another 40-something-years. Worth mentioning: it's one of the very few pizzerias to have a liquor license. (I'd definitely come back again for the not-so-perfectly-round pizza but would pass on the fries and pasta...)

The pepperoni and Sicilian slices were particularly impressive, and I would even say this is the best Sicilian pizza I've ever had.

Newark, NJ - we came here for a quick pre-show bite before a Sunday matinee at NJPAC since it was…read moreclose by, and wow, was I surprised by how good the pizza is for a fast-casual chain! Backed by celebrity investors like LeBron James and Maria Shriver, the concept is an assembly-line approach to customizable artisanal-style pies. Think Chipotle, but make it pizza. Personal sized, thin crust pizza (6 slices) is built right in front of you in an open kitchen, then fired in an oven for 3 minutes. You can finish things off with drizzles of various sauces or a handful of arugula if you fancy extra embellishment. Choose a signature pie or build your own - I love that you can have any toppings for one flat price. For the allergen or diet conscious: gluten-free, cauli, and keto crusts are all available alongside the original and high-rise doughs. We also tried the protein-zza, a California-style chicken & veggie pizza made with cauliflower crust. I was fully prepared to be smug about detecting the alternative crust, but couldn't tell the difference at all. It was generously loaded with toppings, and the roasted garlic really made the taste pop. Fresh, vibrant flavors all around. We went on a Sunday so it wasn't too crowded and service was swift, and the pizzas came out beautifully. For a quick-serve franchise, this place delivered high-performance pies that defied my expectations.

They used to use fresh ingredients and never got it wrong. The last three times I've ordered I was very disappointed. Out of all the toppings I ordered I got cheese and spinach and it tasted old, as if someone didn't pick their order up and the just reheated and resold. It's a shame because this was my go to place. I feel just because we're in Newark doesn't mean you should skimp on quality. And it was only 11:30 am.

For those who aren't familiar, a…read morerodízio is a Brazilian style an all you can eat for a fixed price and the waiters go around with different topping pizzas and you choose the ones you want. They offer rodízio on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and reservations are recommended. Price as of Jan/2026 is $18 per person + taxes + tips + fee if you pay with a credit card. Despite the staff being friendly and the pizza being delicious, I don't think the rodízio is worth it. They take too long to bring the pizza and the slices are very small. When my wife and I visited on a regular day, we paid $30 for the large pie and still had 3 big slices left which we took home. Parking is a nightmare so take an uber if you can. Very busy area.
