My first time coming here and I must say, I was happily pleased. Came here with my daughter for Brunch on a Sunday and the food and drinks were on point but the service? Service was impeccable! DJ played some familiar tunes and just overall a great experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone. You won’t be disappointed!

We sat outside in early November evening and they did have heaters if needed. The view was spectacular, the drinks were fine, and the service was good. I was expecting a little bit more from the drinks based on the price, but other than that, we had a good experience! Overall, I’d come back for the view and to experience the inside as well.

This was my 2nd time dining here. Last week my husband and I came to NYC to see a show and had breakfast at Lola's which was very good. Yesterday I went to NYC with a girlfriend who doesn't get to NYC too often, we went here for lunch before our show, which was just as enjoyable as the 1st time. The decor is lemons and yellow and white stripes which make you feel like your in Sicily!!!! Fun atmosphere. Pleasant staff. Good food and drinks. What more can you ask for!!!

We are fortunate to find Felina’s n South Orange. We go there often because of the stellar service, quiet and creative ambiance, and the large menu that does not ever disappoint. The cocktails are innovative and delicious. Add a little of the house made limoncello after dinner and you won’t be disappointed. I almost forgot! The homemade cookies at the exit are just one more thing that makes this place so special.

We had an absolutely amazing time celebrating my wife's birthday at Romo Restaurant! The lively, energetic atmosphere set the perfect mood for a celebration the moment we walked in. The food was spectacular from start to finish—the Croquetas de Maduro and Chicharron Acevichado were incredible starters. For dinner, the steak salad and the Romo steak cooked perfectly medium rare completely blew us away. The drinks were equally top-notch; the 1942 Margaritas and the Casamigos Blanco Margaritas were premium, expertly mixed, and added so much to the night. We finished with the Flan & Majarete, which was the perfect sweet ending to a special celebration. A massive thank you to our server, Mersy R, and the entire staff. Mersy provided exceptional, attentive service and went above and beyond to make sure my wife felt celebrated and that our evening was absolutely flawless. The warm hospitality, great drinks, and fun vibe made for an unforgettable birthday dinner. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!

    We fell in love with tapas a few years ago. Casa d'Paco is our "go to" in NJ. We enjoyed everything we ate. Love the croquetas jamon as they melt in your mouth! This visit we had some of their specials including pollo con camerones and pollo fiorentina. Sangria rounds the delicious food off! Parking is horrendous in this area so luckily the offer valet parking which is much appreciated.
