What actually leaves the kitchen most
This is not our pick. It is the order count from our own ordering system.
Brunch & Sides
Served 9 AM – 4 PM
The reason most people find us. Breakfast does not stop at eleven here. The brunch board runs to four in the afternoon, which is why you will see people eating pancakes next to people eating steak.
Apps & Pasta
The mozzarella is made in house (that is what “mutz” means on this menu) and the vodka sauce has real Calabrian chili in it rather than a suggestion of heat.
Burgers & Steak
Every burger is grass-fed, and the two nineteen-dollar ones are wagyu. The hanger steak comes from Vrola. The Bread Pudding Smash is what happens when a pastry section and a griddle share a kitchen.
Sangwiches & Wraps
Spelled the way it gets said. The buffalo chicken is organic, grass-fed and antibiotic-free, and the California Burrito puts the fries inside the burrito and then serves you more fries.
Rotisserie Chicken
Local and organic, on the rotisserie. The family meal needs 45 minutes and is only available after noon, so it is worth calling ahead rather than turning up hopeful.
Salads
Both built to be a meal rather than a side apology.
Dessert
The bread pudding is the thing guests name most often in reviews. The soft serve comes off a machine in the building.
Kid's Menu
Short, cheap and actually eaten.
Coffee, Iced Lattes & Teas
Bottomless coffee, and two iced lattes that are basically dessert.
Old York Wines
New Jersey wine, by the half bottle and the full.

What guests say about the food
Rated 4.6 on Google. Every quote below is verbatim, nothing trimmed into a better sound bite.
Such a cute little gem of a restaurant! Our server David was so personable and attentive and made great recommendations! We tried the Watermelon Salad (so fresh!), Mac and Cheese (loved the breadcrumbs and creaminess), and the Big J Burger (excellent smashed burger and bun!). Thank you for having us!Elizabeth Manna · Google
Absolutely love this place! My boyfriend and I have been coming here for atleast a year now and it has always been a spot that is reliable, great food, and friendly service. Especially Elizabeth, she is lovely, relatable and you can tell she cares and has pride in the business.Emily P. · Google
Such a cute place for lunch. Love the vibe. 80s style is my favorite. My Chicken Caesar wrap was delicious. Coffee is strong and so good. The staff were friendly and welcoming. My waitress Mia was very attentive and friendly.Delia Serrano · Google

Before you order
Reading the menu
Price ranges by section, why a couple of dishes show none, and the two timing rules that catch people out.
What each part of the menu costs
Eleven sections, 49 dishes. The range inside each one, so you can see where your table lands before you order rather than after:
- Brunch & Sides $5.00 to $16.00 (7 items)
- Apps & Pasta $15.00 to $20.00 (4 items)
- Burgers & Steak $12.00 to $28.00 (6 items)
- Sangwiches & Wraps $15.00 to $16.00 (6 items)
- Rotisserie Chicken $15.00 to $36.00 (2 items)
- Salads $15.00 to $16.00 (2 items)
- Dessert $6.00 to $12.00 (3 items)
- Kid's Menu $5.00 to $12.00 (4 items)
- Coffee, Iced Lattes & Teas $4.00 to $9.00 (6 items)
- Old York Wines $21.00 to $41.00 (6 items)
- Drinks $4.00 to $5.00 (3 items)
Why a few dishes show no price
1 item carries a description and no number: Hot Honey Chicken Melt.
That is deliberate. Every price here was read off the restaurant's own ordering page. Where we did not read one, we do not print one, because a wrong price on a menu is a lie the customer discovers at the register. Call (201) 238-2484 and ask.
What the kitchen makes rather than buys
Three things worth knowing before you choose. The mozzarella is made in the building, spelled “mutz” on this menu because that is how it gets said here, and it turns up in the mutz sticks, inside the Spicy a la Vodka and on the Veggie Wrap. The soft serve comes off a machine here. And the Baby Bread Pudding has escaped the dessert section entirely, into a burger and an iced latte.
The sourcing is named where it matters: grass-fed burgers, wagyu on the two nineteen-dollar ones, hanger steak from Vrola, local organic rotisserie chicken, and New Jersey wine from Old York by the half bottle. The longer version.
Ordering from this page
Order online for pickup or delivery, book a table on Resy, or use the app, which carries a rewards programme.
Two timing rules the menu does not shout. Brunch runs to 4 PM and the full lunch and dinner menu runs alongside it. And the Whole Rotisserie Chicken Family Meal needs 45 minutes and only starts at noon.
Eating here with a dietary requirement
The restaurant names vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and says dishes can be customised. A kitchen making its own sauces and cheese can genuinely take something out, which is not true of one reheating bought-in components.
One thing stated plainly on their own menu: the Baby Bread Pudding is not available gluten-free. What their menu text does and does not support.
