    Chips were just tiny pieces
    Kimberly F.

    To update my previous review, this has become my favorite go to spot for lunch. I just cannot get over the wonderful prices and delicious, good quality food. If this remains I will be back with friends and family many times going forward. Today I got the crispy chicken Caesar wrap and it was very good, but a little salty for my liking. I suspect it may be because of the bacon bits in the bottom. If I were to get it again I'd remove the bacon. The chicken inside was so tender and juicy and fresh. There was no skimping on this wrap!!! The chicken was phenomenal. In addition, I've recently been enjoying the Cuban sandwich here which is SO good. I've gotten it with my family on multiple occasions and it's so filling and generously portioned. It's my new fav! Keep in mind I take most of my sandwiches to go and it's about an 18 min drive home and it's still yummy when I get home. Additionally, staff is always super friendly here and the restaurant is so cute inside. All in all this place is becoming my favorite place to go. Keep it up!!!

    3 Pumpkin Pancakes
    Meryam A.

    Came for brunch on Saturday around noon. We were on the waitlist and seated right in front of the host stand, but no one told us our table was ready until we asked. After being seated, it took about 10 minutes before anyone brought utensils or water, and we had to flag a server. They weren't super busy, so this was disappointing. The food was good overall. We ordered the Basic Skillet (8/10), Huevos Rancheros (9/10), Combo Platter (8/10), and Salmon Platter (7/10). The portions are generous and the potatoes were the best. The seasonal drinks (apple latte, pumpkin cold brew, salted mocha) were huge and delicious, while the fresh juices were much smaller but the same price, so I'd skip those next time. Our waitress was really sweet and apologized for the delays. Despite the rocky start, we left with very full bellies.

    NEW: Fiesta Crunch Salad

    The food is good, but they are grossly understaffed. There are a few gluten-free options on the menu now.

    Came here for lunch. Place is big and bright. Good spot for brunch with SO, family and friends. Service was fine ... a little slow but server was friendly. We ordered the eggs benedicts (corn bread and grits on the side, and the other was the avocado one with potatoes and bacon). They missed the bacon my order came so I was a little disappointed, but happy food was tasty. We also got the caramel mochachino - loved it! The other drink we got was a strawberry topped latte, which was interesting but my husband liked it.

    Big easy benedict
    Sumi K.

    The restaurant is conveniently located at the Mercer Mall where the Shoprite is located. We were able to get a seat without a reservation for Thursday brunch. My big easy benedict was very yummy with egg, corn bread, chorizo and onions with creole seasoning. I substituted potatoes with a spring mix salad with a dressing on the side. The black coffee came out in the pot which tasted great. My companion ordered vegetable & cheese egg white omelet which also tasted great! Our server was very pleasant and fulfilled all our requests.

    This was my first time at this location but I've been to another one. It's in a strip mall with lots of parking. They don't take reservations and we had a big group -13 and it took them 15 ish minutes to figure out where to put us. It was breakfast so that's to be expected. We had to be separated by 3 tables. Everyone enjoyed their food. Service was good. They messed up my sandwich but easily fixable, prices are good. Much more reasonable than another breakfast chain place in the area (PJs haha). I recommend but they should have a reservation system.

    Lobsta Cado Toast with an Iced Chai.
    Cassie C.

    I have had lunch here before, but at a different location, so I figured I would stop in. It's located in an outdoor mall complex. The decor is simple and clean. I was happy to see that the Fall special of Lobsta Cado that I tried my first visit was now a summer special, so I ordered the same thing.I will say it was slightly different than the other location, but I still enjoyed it. The service was not the most attentive, but definitely pleasant. Nice spot to try.

    Amazing Food and pretty cool Ambience perfect place for Family and Friends Brunch. Portions are Big and not too pricey.

    G.O.A.T. omelette
    Jeff C.

    I liked it. Good place to get some breakfast or brunch in the Princeton area. Inside is simply decored. Plenty of tables so it's a good place for groups. I got the g.o.a.t omelette. It was really good. Decent portion sized too. A lot of variety on the menu. My friends got the shrimp and grits, huevos rancheros, and chicken and waffle. They liked all of them. Service was good. Friendly staff. Linda was really friendly and attentive. Easy parking in the shopping center lot.

    burnt pancake

    Absolutely miserable experience here. Ordered 3 skillets, 2 pancakes and 2 cold brews. Waited 20 minutes after estimated pick up to receive the skillets, then an additional 10 for the pancakes, then an additional 20 for the cold brews. an hour total!! huh?! an additional 20 minutes for 2 cold brews. what???? you just pour it in a cup? and the house cold brew wasn't cold it had been sitting out waiting for the second cold brew to be made. pancake was burnt, blueberries just thrown in the middle? avocado was black, and i don't think it would be possible to use any less seasoning Lackluster communication from the front to explain why the delays were happening. awful, will never be back. what a waste of money, time and energy from what would have been a lovely sunday brunch with friends

    Just Beet It

    Service was nice. Food was decent for an outside bite with friends or family. Ambiance gives an old fashioned setup but it's nice nonetheless. I'd try it again.

It doesn't take away from the rating, but worth mentioning and if you like to watch your fat intake. I prefer bacon so I rather cut back on the buttered toasted bread. The place was also clean so overall a good experience. I hope that others that are closer to me are as good as well.

Country style decor but definitely halal. I saw the menu online and noted that prices seemed a bit steep. Luckily the in-store prices seemed about $1-$2 less, but still kind of high. I ordered the 2 tenders with fries at medium heat, Mac n cheese and a chocolate shake. There was only one other table occupied at lunch time. I waited about 12 minutes for my takeout order. The tenders were the best part of the meal, juicy meat with a light but crispy batter that I was envisioning on bone in skin on parts. I went with medium spice which felt more like spicy to me, I'd probably do mild in the future. The blazin sauce was ok, the ranch was good and helped control the heat. The generous portion of fries were not good. Soggy and salty, I tried to crisp them up in the oven and it helped a little , but way too salty. The Mac and cheese was also a generous portion, but seemed to be a more child friendly(bland) version. Almost like a cheez wiz sauce. I did not like. Lastly the shake was very good. They advertise using Hagen Daz, and it showed. Service was professional but kind of cold. No hello or thank you. I'm still kind of undecided if I'll return.

Spiced like someone back there still cares about seasoning. The flamin sauce was a pleasant surprise too. Tangy. Spicy. I could hear it saying, "I got you," as it met the chicken. And then came the waffle. It was supposed to be the bread. It was not. It was more of a warm sponge that gave up the moment it was asked to perform a structural task. Fell apart like a wet paperback novel in a monsoon. Possibly edible with a fork if you like your sandwiches like that. I don't. Then there were the fries. Imagine someone steamed them by accident and then whispered to them about what crispness might have felt like in another life. They arrived clumped together in greasy clusters, like they'd survived something traumatic and refused to let go of each other. Sorry, but I generally prefer my sides to not be trauma bound, thank you very much. Eighteen dollars and ninety-nine cents. For that. I wanted to love this place. I wanted to be the guy who discovered the next neighborhood gem. But lunch isn't a metaphor. Lunch is lunch. Three stars because the chicken was good and because I'm not a monster.

Unfortunately, I visited on a Sunday afternoon when they had taped a message up on the door that they didn't have a cook, so their kitchen was closed. Staff looked bewildered, explaining to me and several others that they were short staffed and couldn't serve food, but can do drinks & pastries. I figured I'd order a croissant to try them out, but the cashier refused to accept payment via the Inkind app, saying that all the other Bluestone Lane locations would take it, but they stopped accepting it. The encounter had all the hallmarks or a poorly managed business on the verge of shutting down. After my visit, I reached out to Inkind customer service, which must have followed up with the business and they insisted that Inkind is accepted at the Princeton location, so their employee who refused it was misinformed or just made up her own rules.
