The outdoor area is covered from direct sun, overlooks the course, and had a light cool breeze. Happy hour prices are great, basically a half price menu on draft beer, select apps, and well drinks. We ordered the $6 artichoke dip, which was good, but too small to be any more than $6. We also had the $6 fish tacos, again good for $6. I tried the empanadas which were ok. I enjoyed a few cocktails but they seemed weak. Our waitress would disappear or forget our orders, which wasn't too big of a deal for us but could be annoying to others. We enjoyed it here but wouldn't say it's anything spectacular. Solid 3 stars.

I am disappointed in manager Cappi's lack of situational awareness. First off, the hours posted on…read moreGoogle Maps, TripAdvisor, and Yelp are entirely wrong. They close at ten on Saturday nights. They shut the lights off while you are mid-drink, sending the folks they just served out the door drunk. March 9th was the worst experience at a public establishment in my entire life. The female bartender with a nose piercing like a bull kept eavesdropping on my private conversation. She would act like a main character and jump into my conversation with her opinions, which no one asked for. Sometimes, she would scream across the bar. She took personal offense to a private discussion about the early closing at 10 pm on a Saturday. The convo was not for her, nor was it negative. A few blokes were looking for their next move of the night, all while trying to have a good time away from our wives and kids. The nose ringer got mad when we commented on her snarky remarks, took our half-drunk beers, and tossed them. Then she began screaming like a blue-haired, saying, "Get the f*** out; don't ever come back." Literally at the top of her lungs until her voice cracked. The manager Cappi's solution was telling us to stop egging her on, and he then threatened to call the cops. Meanwhile, we already paid and, unfortunately, tipped. I told Cappi he needs to train his employees better. She charged at me like a wild hippo, and as I stood my ground and looked her in her face, she invited me to fight her boyfriend, who was outside with his friends(incels). All while Cappi was pretending to hold her back. He didn't stop her from any of her spoiled child antics. This place is a joke of an establishment. I want to buy this place just to fire everyone. I've been in the service industry for 20 years, and I would not retrain a degenerate, inept lunatic who can not elaborate emotions verbally but would rather scream and scold a customer. What a waste of prime real estate opportunity. Honestly, I think she was a druggie. You ever go into a bar anticipating the druggie waitress to invite you to fight her boyfriend after her manager suggested to call the police all because she wants you to leave within 30 minutes of serving you alcohol? She wanted to do some drugs that had left her system by the end of her shift. We all saw it in her as soon as we sat down. She was mad she was not high. This is the spot for that low-class smooth brain energy. one may say- jersey trash. It must have blown in from the East Brunswick dump and made a home in South Plainfield next to a dead diner. Like a NY pigeon

When I called back to clarify that I was simply asking about last call for food and mentioned that hanging up on customers is inappropriate, she told me not to call back. For a place that presents itself as trendy and inviting, this kind of behavior is completely unacceptable. I live nearby and would have been a regular customer, but after this experience, I have no interest in returning. Very disappointing and disrespectful.

It sounds like the setup to a…read moreJeopardy! clue, but it all comes together when you discover that Jake LoMatta's favorite second cousin sits proprietor over one of Jersey's best burgers in the Portuguese section of Newark. I of course joke about the famed boxers relationship but I can confirm this Newark institution packs a championship punch where it counts. For decades, Krug's Tavern has been proving that a neighborhood bar with a small well-seasoned grill is sometimes all you need. Without any unnecessary fanfare, they've been serving truly exceptional burgers to Newark locals and hungry visitors from across North Jersey, and there's no sign of slowing down. I stopped in one afternoon on the recommendation of a friend who works for the utility company and had spent more than a few lunch hours beneath Krug's dimly lit ceilings. Within a few bites, it was easy to understand why the place has earned such a devoted following. The Shrimp Scampi may sound like an unusual order off the bar menu, but don't overlook it. It's outstanding and deserves a place on the table no matter what else you're eating. Better yet, ask for the house "secret sauce"--a glorious combination of the scampi butter and Buffalo sauce that somehow works far better than it has any right to. When it comes to burgers, the quintessential Jersey Taylor Ham burger is a must, delivering that perfect salty, smoky bite only New Jersey can truly appreciate. The bacon cheeseburger is equally memorable, piled high with crispy bacon and juicy enough to make napkins less of a suggestion and more of a necessity. Pair any of it with an ice-cold draft beer, soak in the neighborhood atmosphere, and you'll quickly understand why Krug's Tavern has become a North Jersey institution. It's proof that great burgers don't need gimmicks--just a hot grill, cold beer, and decades of doing things the right way. It's bound to be a good time, an IRONbound good time (I'll see myself out)
