We had a great evening sitting outside on a cozy couch with a beautiful sky view above us. I received a much needed blanket and it made my night. Love the Splendid Rooftop Bar-it’s simply SPENDID!

First time and we loved this neighborhood spot! Food is as good as it looks in pictures. Our server was attentive, helpful and kind. The only reason I deducted one star is because when we arrived with a reservation, we were told the wait was 45min. The host made no attempt to accommodate us. Fortunately another host stepped in and we were able to get seated without having to wait. The music and vibe was fun and our server turned the evening around and made it a positive experience. I would definitely go back!

Why does our group of four ALWAYS meet at End of Elm? Because this gastropub NEVER disappoints. During this visit, our server Charlize was the star of the show. After introducing herself and asking our names, Charlize facilitated an optimal flow of drinks, tailored plates, and dessert. Over three hours at our preferred Table 29, we enjoyed the shaved brussels salad, shrimp tostones, and multiple orders of the butternut squash soup and fried chicken sandwich. We capped off the meal with the crumb cake dessert. Particularly excited about this visit, one member of our party did not eat all day; in the end, he conveyed his satiation with a smile while sipping his nightcap amaretto. On this busy Saturday night, Charlize notably thanked us all by name. She, bartender Nick, manager Tommy, and associate Kevin deserve special commendation for clearly working as a team, creating a great vibe, and providing us with another memorable night at End of Elm. We will surely return to Table 29.

The bartender, Erica, is so personable and welcoming! My nephew said the drink she made him was the best he has ever had! That is the type of service that I was hoping for my mom’s 82nd birthday gathering. Michael, our waiter, was so nice and a great server. The place is beautiful and service is even better. My mom was so happy with it and we definitely will be back.

Moonshine is my go to for brunch. It's been favorite for over 5 years. Victor and the staff are very warm and welcoming. The menu has a good variety of drink and food options. They keep it lively with good music as well as keeping the sports fan happy with TVs showing your favorites. Hoping for their continued success.

My brother and I visited the Swahili Village prior to our visiting NJPAC. He had been there previously; this was my first time. The host, hostessed (Winnie) and talked us through the menu, made excellent recommendation, explained Kenyan food & culture and was absolutely wonderful. The food was excellent but would have liked more ... more portion size and more options. I will definitely go back and would recommend this restaurant for others. We were celebrating my brother's birthday, and they offered a dessert on the house. We did not take them up on it, but the gesture did not go unnoticed. A wonderful time. Thanks Winnie!!

I visited Legacy 27 with a group of friends, and from beginning to end, the experience was absolutely amazing! The atmosphere was beautiful, the energy was incredible, and the hospitality was unmatched. I ordered the fried snapper, and it was cooked to perfection flavorful, fresh, and absolutely delicious! The staff went above and beyond to make our visit memorable, providing exceptional service throughout the evening. Legacy 27 truly delivers the perfect combination of great food, outstanding service, and an unforgettable dining experience. 10/10! I highly recommend Legacy 27 and will definitely be returning!**

    My hubby and I enjoyed such a beautiful and romantic date night at Legacy 27, and the experience was absolutely unforgettable! From the intimate atmosphere to the amazing hospitality, everything was just perfect. A special shoutout to Donson for the incredible recommendations and outstanding service!The Jollof rice paired with the lamb chops was definitely the star of the night packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! And if you haven't tried the Sweet Nothing cocktail you're missing out! It's a must-try! Legacy 27 truly knows how to create a memorable dining experience. We loved every moment and will definitely be back! 10/10 for the food, service, and romantic vibes.
