    Cheese Charcuterie with nuts and meat..
    Cecilè C.

    I called on a Thursday to place my order, time got the best of me and slipped my mind. They were on it based upon my need. I received a call from the store and it was cool like I had a reminder - Drove over Friday next day - paid and place my order - picked it up Saturday for my Friendsgiving - Everyone loved the presentation as did I and will order again. Customer Service A+ Store - A+ Parking - b But I'd give them 5 stars but the parking which isn't their fault but par for the course..

    Wifey and I had to cancel a vacation in December and we decided the best way to drown our sorrows was to find cheese and meat from the locations we were going to visit. We found Van Hook here on Yelp and decided to give them a try. Neither of us have gone to specialty cheese shop like this so we were a little overwhelmed at first, until the staff behind the counter started helping us. We explained what we were looking for and they were very helpful. We ended up walking out with five kinds of cheese and three kinds of meats. When we got home we paired them with a couple wines and voilà! While the cheese and meat didn't really alleviate our sadness of missing Switzerland, France and Germany we were able to joke about it and enjoy some wonderful treats. Thank you Van Hook!!

    Returned today to make a cheese platter. The staff were very knowledgeable about the cheese and meat selection and suggested some great varieties. If you don't know a lot about cheese they can "show you the ropes". What I like about cheese shops is you can get small amounts of lots of cheeses to try things out. They also have so many things to pair the cheese with such as jams, honey, chocolate, coffee, olive oils. They have a free parking lot for shoppers, which is rare in this area!

    We finally made it this past weekend to Vinnie's Mootz for one of their special tasting menu…read morenights, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're expecting a typical dinner, think again. The tasting menu featured around 12 courses, and by course ten I was completely full--but somehow still excited for what was coming next. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with flavor and very tasty. For me the standout of the night was the very first dish which was Vinnie's homemade mozzarella with tomatoes, which was so good that we even bought some fresh mozzarella to take home. The meatballs were also outstanding, and the steak and eggplant course was another highlight. After all that food, finishing with a cannoli just felt like the perfect ending. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but the food is every bit as good as what you'd find at restaurants that cost a lot more. Live guitar music throughout the evening added to the experience created a nice vibe. My only suggestion would be maybe to turn it down a notch or two as it was a little hard to hear others at our table. Still a very nice touch though and all songs you would know. I always like it when a chef comes out of the kitchen, especially at a tasting menu, and Vinnie came out several times to chat with guests which was very nice. It just added a personal touch and showed how much pride goes into both the food and the overall experience and we got to hear his back story. This tasting menu is an incredible value and a great way to try dishes you might not normally order. Just remember to come hungry--and maybe skip lunch beforehand. If you can get a reservation for one of these tasting nights, don't hesitate.

    A sandwich-and-slice shop with a personality all its own. I had passed this lunch spot countless…read moretimes -- usually chuckling at the somewhat ridiculous name -- always telling myself I'd eventually stop in one day. After my first visit, I can say the tongue-in-cheek spirit of Vinnie Mootz's signage carries right through the front door and into its lineup of "SANGWEECHES." I ordered "The Nicky Mootz" -- cutlet, bacon, hot sauce, and fresh mootz -- and enjoyed it immensely in the friendly, medium-sized dining room. The pizza, which I plan to try on a future visit, looked excellent, and the small assortment of hand-stretched mozzarellas is reason enough to stop back in the next time I'm passing through. It's a Jersey sandwich -- excuse me, sangweech -- shop with all the charm, humor, and flavor you'd hope for the community!

    Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon after picking my daughter up at the train station. We popped in…read morefor a sandwich to share. It was fun reading the options on the board in the window. We split the turkey and Brie sandwich with fig jam. Sandwich is big enough to share. I was comfortably full when finished. We enjoyed looking at the crackers and condiments available while we waited. Will try another sandwich.

    This should be zero stars because I had zero experience. Check out my review of the cheese shop…read moreinside the Wine List. Also in Summit. About 2 -3 blocks away. Always wanted to try this place. Thought might buy some cheese and a sandwich. Walked in. Woman at the counter. Asking about cheese. Lot of questions. Got the impression she's making a cheese board. No Acknowledgment from guy behind counter. Walked around store. Not going to describe it. Not going to describe what else they had. 5 minutes, 10 minutes. No acknowledgement. No we will be right with you. No we won't be right with you because clearly we are going to only pay attention to this woman for the next 29 minutes as she decides what kind of cheeses she wants for her cheeseboard. Finally walked out. Got pizza at SQR PIZZA boy they make good pizza. Stopped at The Wine List. They have a cheese shop. Boy they were helpful and friendly. Knowledgeable. Gave me some samples. Back rub. (Okay no back rub). Highly recommend. Read my review. 5 stars. Could have gone like this. Hi sir welcome to the Summit Cheese shop how are you? Oh I'm fine thank you, yourself? Well, my back hurts a bit. Probably the rain. Yeah probably. Look this might take a while. Oh I really wanted a turkey and Brie sandwich. Okay well I'll work on that after I finish up. Could you come back in maybe 20 minutes? Yes I can/ oh sorry I have to get back I'm on my lunch break. Thanks so much for acknowledging me as a human being, though. My pleasure! And scene.
