    ex large sausage pie

    This place is very friendly, wait staff is amazing so pleasant. The pizza lives up to the hype , thin crust pizza perfection

    Marc W.

    Dive bar. Bar pie was disappointing- dripping grease. Crust had potential but the grease was a deal breaker. Service was begrudging. Pass.

    Richie G.

    Surprisingly excellent bar pie with thin real dough crust and fresh ingredients--a cozy local bar with friendly service and good food

    Delicious Pizza from the General Saloon

    My sister in law invited my wife and I there. We enjoyed the selection of comfort food. We also had the calamari, kids mac n cheese. The service was friendly and the food was brought out quickly. Ambiance was ok.

    The name says it all, it's a very open General Saloon with a little western vibe to it. Music is not too loud, nor the TVs, nor the crowd for the most part. You can certainly people watch from the edge of the bar and listen to a lot of conversations happening all at once because of the open nature of the place. Went there for a date with food & drinks. The bartender kept checking in on drinks, though didn't always hear me correctly the first time around. Not too big a crowd and certainly cleared out by the 10 PM hour. Nothing special on the pours or the food but got the job done.

    Great bar pizza! We came at 5pm on Friday and it was relatively empty. But soon it was packed! The bar too! Great service, great food, good prices. I highly recommend. The large pie was enough for me to eat half and bring the other half for my husband.

Is it a false advertisement or an "one man band"? Very disappointed to say the least since we went there so we could dance to a full live band. Having one person playing in the bar area just adds more noise. A full live band is loud and energetic which drowns the noise and gets people on the dance floor and sit there tapping and/or nodding their head. Before 2026, MJ's in Spotswood had full bands playing almost every weekend. Now it is just the other way around with one or two musicians. You really need a drummer to get people on the dance floor. The Cabin restaurant in Freehold on the other hand always has full bands playing every weekend and the dance floor is always packed as well as the rest of the restaurant. We like MJ's in Spotswood since it is close by us and our friends. We hope it will bring back full bands on the weekends regularly. Also, We went to MJ's in Spotswood last Tuesday night (5/26) for their prime rib dinner special. It didn't come with a salad. Asked for an end cut but they said they don't serve them. The prime rib on both plates had globs of un-rendered fat and gristle but no crust. We spent half of our time trimming the fat and gristle away. The cheese on the baked potato was not even melt. The bacon bits on the baked potato were so dry and hard. No butter or sour cream. The only thing good on the plate was the green beans. So not sure their prime rib dinner is worth the price.

    This was a disappointing and embarrassing dinner. We took out-of-town family here for a graduation…read moredinner and it was bad all around. Service: everything took very long. Our waitress was great but she was working the entire side of the restaurant where we were sitting. This was especially pronounced because one of my guests couldn't leave late. Food: subpar. We were here a few times a few years ago and I remember it being much better. The wings were good, especially the sauce. The sticky ribs were too salty and the ribs, while tender, tasted dry and overcooked. The pastas we ordered were overcooked and soft. The beef bulgolgi wasn't great. It was ok. Overall, a disappointment. Price is high for quality of food. Ambience: I remember this place being more lively and full. This time, on a Friday night, at dinner time, it was half empty. Other: trauma alert- read at your own risk. Once read, it cannot be unread!! When my daughter opened her napkin with the utensils, a spider jumped out at her and she was screaming! It took a while to get another set of napkins and utensils but when we finally did, I had to open the napkin for her because she was afraid to open it....

All of us with very different diets ended up finding something we loved. All of the good: -There was no trouble for 4 of us to get a table around 2:30ish on a Saturday. The space is huge, and it looked like they were even holding a private party upstairs. -A big menu with lots of options. We had everyone from vegan to basically carnivore at the table and the only trouble came when we realized most of their bread options had milk in them. The friend with a vegan diet knew to ask, but this would have been totally missed by me. She ended up getting a noodle dish and we all ate very happy. -My veggie burger was pretty good! As much as I love them, I can be a veggie burger snob. It's one of those things that need to be done right and the Gusto Grill veggie burger was done well in my opinion. Loved that it was a bit different with edamame as one of the bases. A great meal and a great time getting together with old friends. Highly recommend!
