I was there this weekend for a birthday party. We had approximately 50 guests. I say that to…read morehighlight that cooking for that many people at once certainly adds to the difficulty in getting it "just right". The other side of the restaurant also had lunch guests as well, I am looking forward to returning here very soon, The ambiance and food was outstanding! We were served "family style." We started with the most delicious rice balls. Next came the tastiest meatballs with ricotta cheese. They also did an amazing job on the fried mozzarella sticks. These were just the appetizers. I couldn't get enough of the salad especially the dressing. Delicious! The main course of chicken parmigiana (melted in your mouth) risotto with corn and sausage and then penne with vodka sauce was awesome! Definitely a "return to" type of restaurant.

Highlights: Fried Calamari and meatball appetizers were great!…read more Mid-lights: The vodka chicken parm with rigatoni was good, but the chicken was a little too soft/soggy. Also the portions were a little small. Lowlights: The restaurant was a little understaffed, wait times for water, to take our order, to get our food was extremely long. 4 dishes ordered and dinner was 2.5 hours... Overall the food was good but pricey for what it was.

I visited Union Bar last year for a Yelp event and have been talking about Union Bar ever since…read more I'm glad that I came tonight to check it out and bring my favorite person along. Our server, Natalie, was bubbly, polite and attentive. I ordered the garlic and lemon shrimp dish which was out of this world. Everything about the dish was a hit: the shrimp were cooked perfectly, the sauce was bursting with flavor, and the portion was sizable. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My mate ordered the burger which was served with seasoned fries. He kept raving about the burger and everything was gone before I had a chance to try anything, so I know it must've been good! All in all, the meal was delicious and I look forward to returning. Also, there is a parking lot next to the restaurant which fills up quickly.

We even called the tow truck driver while he was in the process of towing it, but still had to pay a significant amount of money just to have the vehicle dropped. What should have been a nice family dinner turned into a stressful and expensive ordeal. Extremely disappointing experience, and we will not be returning.

Stopped here after a long day of errands. I just wanted a simple bologna and cheese sandwich which…read moreyou just can't get at a Jersey Mikes or Subway. Local delis are rare these days but this little place made my day. Clean and neat overall. Selections are more geared for breakfast but they have the basics for a good deli sandwich. Bread was fresh and the perfect chewy doughy Italian bread you want for a deli sandwich. They have Boars Head brand cold cuts and they slice to order. The owner was super friendly and we had a few laughs as he shared about why he had started the biz. The two local crossing guards were hanging having a cup of coffee before heading to their corners. The pricing was worth the sandwich. I was very pleased with the service and sandwich. Looking forward to stopping in again soon.

Let me start by saying overall, Wallington Deli is excellent. The Chicken parm vodka and the bread…read moreare delicious. However...... I ordered the eggplant parm sandwich and I will say, unequivocally, do NOT order this. It's a complete and utter failure and I'll explain why. The eggplant itself is cut so thin, about 2mm on a mandolin. Instead of bread crumbs, it's coated with a foamy egg batter. Fried. There is barely any sauce on it and two lumpy pieces of mozzarella on it. Tasteless. And for $14, I tossed it in the garbage. Stick to the chicken parms. I will still patronize this place, but never again, the eggplant.

After my first visit, I can say the tongue-in-cheek spirit of Vinnie Mootz's signage carries right through the front door and into its lineup of "SANGWEECHES." I ordered "The Nicky Mootz" -- cutlet, bacon, hot sauce, and fresh mootz -- and enjoyed it immensely in the friendly, medium-sized dining room. The pizza, which I plan to try on a future visit, looked excellent, and the small assortment of hand-stretched mozzarellas is reason enough to stop back in the next time I'm passing through. It's a Jersey sandwich -- excuse me, sangweech -- shop with all the charm, humor, and flavor you'd hope for the community!
