Cheeseburger, sweet corn nuggets, Fat Stewie, & 2 root beers.
Marcus C.

Cool old style car hop burger joint. The menu was a good size and the staff was great. Very friendly and got my order out quick despite it being a busy Saturday afternoon. The root beer as expected was great!

Root Beer Float

Driving through the area looking for something for lunch and I see one of my all time faves Stewart's so of course we must pull up. We decided to dine in for counter service and we had the friendliest server Robin greet us. We quickly decided what we wanted from their vast menu... I went with a Chili dog, Corn nuggets, and a root beer and Hubby had a Bacon Cheeseburger, Sweet Potato Fries, and a Root Beer Float. Robin quickly delivered our drinks and my hubby was In love with his Root Beer Float, he said it was delicious and insisted I try it and he was right. My Root Beer tasted so refreshing too... a nice change from my usual Diet Coke. Shortly after our food was delivered. My Hot Dog was so good! The perfect snap and the chili sauce rich and savory. Now corn nuggets are one of my favorites and I rarely find them so this was a pleasant surprise. They were cooked to a perfect golden brown and so tasty. My husband enjoyed his bacon cheese burger and sweet potato fries as they were gone in a flash. We both commented now that we found this spot we're definitely coming back. The building itself is like a throwback in time, very nostalgic. With the option of counter seating or car side delivery of your order. Everything was very clean and orderly and as I already said we'll definitely be back. So if you're in the mood for some good food and friendly service definitely stop by.

Sweet Corn Bites

Are you looking for an awesome chicken sandwich or a Philly Swiss cheese steak to consume? This is the place to try out on a nice sunny day. You can place your order by walking into the bar or someone will come to your car to take your order. Did not want my car to smell like food, so we ate at the bar. I noticed that when the food is brought to the car, the tray hangs off the car window, which is pretty cool. Nick and I ordered the chicken sandwich, Philly Swiss sandwich, twister fries, and sweet corn bites. Everything was super tasty. The cost of everything was not bad at all. As we were leaving, I noticed that there were tables set up in the back area to dine. Overall, I would recommend trying this place out when the weather is super sunny. Awesome food and great service.

They come to the car to get your order .

It's a cute place to stop by for hot dogs.. burgers and fries. They bring everything to the car but you have the option to go inside as well. They have a great variety of milkshakes so try one if you can. My hot dog was good. Not a place I would run to butt if I pass it I might stop in.

Ordered a chili burger (it's on the menu). What I got was a hamburger with chili toppings that they charged extra for. Not the same. Yuck!

1st time in Rahway and we stayed at the Watt Hotel it was late and we wanted a burger... this place…read morewas in literally a few doors down so we decided to stop by. For starters we had the shrimp tacos!!! $17 for 2 but worth every penny! And they were by far The best I've ever had!! Very fresh toppings and perfectly seasoned. And I loved the green sauce they topped it with. For dinner my husband and I split the $19 classic burger and substituted the fries for a Caesar salad. We also subbed the cheddar cheese for the smoked Gouda and omg chefs kiss!! Ordered it medium and It was cooked perfectly! For drinks we had a coke soda $3.50 and an uptown girl (lychee martini) $14 Both were good. The servers were really nice. The vibe was laid back. The volume of the music was perfect. The bathrooms were really clean. If ever in the area again I'd definitely come back!

Decent spot for a quick bite and cocktails right near the train station. Their lychee old fashioned…read moreis interesting and easy to sip. Their wings were a surprising balance of sweet and savory. I just wish they had a bit more crisp or char. For mains, we got the classic burger, veggie burger, and chicken milanese. The chicken definitely drives this review. The breading is crisped to perfection and the meat itself is nice and juicy. The salad on top provides a nice contrast and had me wishing I had a bit more to gobble up. The main bar space has high ceilings so it allows for you to not feel like you're on top of one another.

Whenever I find myself in Union County, more often than not you will find me at Paragon Tap +…read moreTable! I called in for a big party, and they did an excellent job with the table-setting & location. Secondly, the food: Their apps are absolute winners. Our table got the Bavarian Soft Pretzel ($12) and the 12-piece wings ($22). Both came out hot and full-of-flavor! Both were excellent with a cold beer. For my main, I actually got a special which was not on their main menu. It was a Fajita Burger served with (you guessed it...) fajita fries. I added jalapenos for an extra kick. It was very good, but the buns are quite thick, so I actually just ate it with the bottom bun intact. The burger patty itself is quite thick which I enjoyed in this current smash-burger phase our world is currently in. Don't sleep on a pub burger. For dessert, it was one of our friends birthday, and as you can see --- they decorated it nicely! Not "they", sorry, Sara - our waitress - did! She was such an awesome server, and communicated very well. Awesome experience + awesome setting + awesome food! Thanks Paragon for doing what you do!

My family and I went out to enjoy a meal, but unfortunately, our experience was completely ruined…read moreby the general manager Craig's attitude and lack of professionalism. We were seated at 6:55 PM, and our waitress had entered our order into the system by 7:02 PM. At 7:30 PM, after we had already been waiting nearly 30 minutes for three chicken sandwiches and a pasta dish, our waitress came over to apologize for the delay and explained that the kitchen was still working on our food. She then spoke with the manager to inform him that our meals had still not arrived. Rather than acknowledging the delay or showing concern for his customers, the manager reportedly told her that the timing was "on point" and that there was nothing wrong with us waiting 30 minutes for our food. When he approached our table, he introduced himself and attempted to shake my hand. I offered constructive feedback, explaining that I had noticed food coming out of the kitchen approximately every 15-17 minutes, which seemed like an unacceptable turnaround time, especially considering the restaurant was not even full. His response was incredibly condescending. He told me that I had never run a restaurant and had never taught a kitchen staff "how to dance," essentially dismissing my concerns as though I had no right to question the service we were receiving. There is a difference between understanding the challenges of running a kitchen and expecting customers to accept unreasonable delays without acknowledgment or accountability. His response was disrespectful, defensive, and completely unprofessional. At 7:43 PM, our waitress returned to apologize again because we STILL had not received our food. She genuinely appeared to be trying her best to resolve the situation, and I made it clear that my frustration was with the manager's horrible customer service, not with her. The manager had offered a gift card, but after the way he spoke to us, I had no interest in accepting it. I requested that one entrée be removed from the bill instead. Our waitress understood and took the request to the owner, who agreed to accommodate us. However, the manager apparently intervened, and that compensation was ultimately not honored. Our food finally arrived at 7:53 PM--a 50-minute wait for basic menu items. Was the food good? Yes. Was it worth waiting 50 minutes for a chicken sandwich? Absolutely not. To make matters worse, the general manager ultimately gave us only 20% off the bill, which did not even amount to the cost of one entrée. The discount itself was not the biggest issue; it was the disrespectful treatment, the dismissive attitude, and the complete lack of accountability throughout the entire experience. I want to give credit where it is due: our waitress was apologetic, professional, and persistent in trying to make things right. She did everything she could to help us, and it was clear that she cared about our experience. Unfortunately, the manager's behavior overshadowed her efforts entirely. Management sets the tone for an establishment, and this manager is the reason my family and I will not be returning.Customers should not be made to feel foolish for expressing reasonable concerns, nor should they have to argue for fair treatment after an unnecessarily long wait. A simple apology, some accountability, and respectful communication would have gone a long way. It is a shame that one person's ego and inability to handle constructive criticism could turn what should have been an enjoyable family dinner into such a frustrating experience. The waitress deserved better support from management, and customers deserve far better treatment than we received. Good food can bring people through the door, but poor management is what ensures they never come back.
