Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Meadowlands

Our waiter AUSTIN was exceptionally helpful. One guest was having a diabetic episode and we had to get food to him immediately. He was most helpful.

What a great underrated spot in Hells Kitchen. The restaurant is comfortable, not packed in like sardines like most these days. Their service is warm, friendly and efficient. Plenty to choose from on their menu including Branzino, Trout (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) and Salmon if you are looking for fish. They also have wonderful preparations of steak, chicken and duck including a pasta dish.

We had a wonderful dinner at Bond 45 last night. We celebrated 2 birthdays and had such a great time. Our waiter, Trevor, was excellent! He was friendly, entertaining, attentive and professional. The drinks were excellent and the meals were exceptional. The lasagna and chicken parmesan were delicious! The restaurant was decorated gorgeously for the holidays. Definitely will go again and thanks Trevor for making our birthdays fun and special!

We are not new to Kellari, but that is kind of the point. We visit New York frequently from DC to see theater and eat well. Some of that eating is always done here. The freshness of everything, from the fish to the beefsteak tomatoes on the salads, is remarkable. One always leaves feeling both satisfied and healthier for the experience. This time we had some spanakopita (not to be missed) and a split Greek salad (Oh, those tomatoes!) with a piece of Fagri that was perfectly fresh and exquisitely done. We had a great half-bottle of Brunello, too, from their ample selection of splits, which is great for diners like us who want a taste but can seldom finish a whole bottle. The ambiance is comfortable to the point of being family-like. As for service, it is always stellar and Phillip easily upheld that tradition. We recommend this place to all who are attracted by the menu with the highest measures of confidence and enthusiasm.

Second time to NYC, second time to Friedmans for breakfast. Great food although I wish they served omelets. Everything we ordered was great. Great espresso drinks as well. Excellent service both times, this time it was 4 adults and 4 kiddos 9 and under. Would definitely go again and highly recommend.
