Ordered takeout online and they put cheese on my grits even though my order clearly said no cheese…read more I had to waste time and gas driving all the way back (I don't even live in Orange) just for the older of the two Indian women at the counter to be rude and give me an attitude. Worse, I watched her tell another server to take my returned container of grits back into the kitchen -- a serious health code violation. Once food leaves the restaurant, it should never go back into the kitchen because of contamination risks. Makes you wonder if they re-serve food people return. Between the bad attitude, wasted trip, and unsafe food handling, I won't be coming back.

I walked in and was served right after the person in front was done. The server explained each dessert and I was going to go with the brownie and blueberry donut. Then when I got to the counter I seen this beautifully made chocolate cake and I was sold. He told me it was a peanut butter chocolate cake and it cost $12 plus tax. Vegan food especially in this and the restaurant next door is expensive. I never paid $12 for dessert but really wanted it. The server cut a big slice so I was happy with that. He was really nice about putting the other desserts that I was going to get back. I paid with credit card and left. When I got home I waited a bit to try it because it was cold and I prefered to have it room temperature. When I finally dug in, I was pleased. It was very good. I couldn't eat it in one sitting either. I will be back to try more items.

I ended up bought a steak ale and mushroom pie, an Apple raspberry and blackberry pie, and numerous chocolate and candy. As I left I saw the scones. The owner gave me a strawberry scone on the house.

I will definitely come back to try the other pastries.

My fiancé ordered my birthday cake from Juliana's as I had a craving for Dominican cake. He placed…read morean order on a Sunday early afternoon and we picked up the cake the following Monday evening. We didn't have any issues with freshness like others have noted. In fact, I felt like mine was *too* fresh - sounds odd, I know! But the icing seemed like it hadn't really "set" and overall, the cake had a very noticeable citrus flavor (it was dulce de Leche). The next day, though, it was *perfect*. The flavors had mellowed out and the icing had a very good consistency. The cake was reasonably priced - $17 plus tax for a cake that served about 6-7 people. I would recommend this place for those in central NJ who are looking to purchase Dominican cakes. My favorite Dominican cake is still in Jersey City but this is a solid option for Union County.

So I made a special trip just to get some Coxihnia. First time visiting this place and I like their menu. Light meals and snacks.

The service is quick and the menu was very clear with self ordering kiosk (credit card only) or ordering at the counter. The vibe is young and hip. Recommended for anyone who wants to try something different!

Snack Mania - Newark, NJ Visited: May 9, 2025 (Delivery)…read moreOrder: Medium Bites, The X-Frango, Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Mini Pudim Total: $59.54 Review: Let's just say this: Snack Mania lives in that murky middle zone between "late-night curiosity" and "I should've just gone to the bodega." First, the good -- fries traveled surprisingly well and still had snap. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich had solid flavor on first bite, and The X-Frango's size was generous enough to feel like you got your money's worth. But let's talk construction. The chicken sandwich came overloaded with coleslaw -- not the crisp, tangy kind, but the soggy, sliding-around sort that hijacks the texture of the whole thing. For a spot that bills itself as a craveable comfort fix, balance matters. The Mini Pudim? Cute in concept, but forgettable in execution. Because this was delivery, I'll cut a bit of slack -- texture always takes a hit in transit -- but for nearly $60, I expected more cohesion and less "eh." Would I Return? Not for delivery. I'd give them another shot in person, where crunch and heat can actually shine. Rating: TLDR: Snack Mania might scratch your fast-food itch, but if you're chasing comfort and quality, you're better off waiting 'til you can try it fresh off the line.
