This place was absolutely delightful, it was pretty empty when we went but that's because they just reopened. Me and hubby had the vailsburg and rest burger . Let me say that the burgers were delicious π not a scrap left. The guy who waited on us was very nice and wonderful π
. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back as a regular because the bar area was cute π and they have outdoor dining area.
I have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance. I called in my order of The Vermont (no bacon) which was a fried chicken sandwich with a side of fries. The man said it would take about 20 minutes. When I arrived it wasn't what I expected. I thought it was going to be a restaurant but it was a smaller place where you just go to the window and pick up your food. The place also had a lot of construction being done, but those are the kind of places that have the best food lol.
When I walked up to the window the man said its not done yet and I went back to the car to wait. He called me when it was ready and I walked up and paid. I took a peak inside and it seemed pretty clean and well kept. The food was a little over $11. When I got home I dug in. The fries were seasoned really well and was tasty. The sandwich was thick and hefty. It was pretty good as well. All in all I had a pretty decent experience and I would try something else in the future.
Been a long time coming that I write a review for RESA Grill.
Where to even start;
- Co-owners Donald and Steve are two amazing guys that are genuine, kind, hospitable, and honest with their customers.
- The food? Amazing. Delicious. Hot. Homemade. Worthy of 5 stars and more if the ratings went higher. Get the Vermont Rooster because it demolishes any other fried chicken sandwich w/ fries that you've ever had before.
- At the time of writing this, RESA is under-going construction but STILL serving up meals thru a pandemic and without seating. AND they still have parking for pick-up. Dedication.
I've gone for years now and will continue to as long as they stay open. Every time someone asks me where I recommend to eat, this is my go-to. Best of luck.
Ordered pasta with shrimp. It was delicious! I enjoyed all of the extra add-ins. Owner was nice and very proud of his establishment. You can tell he takes pride in his cooking. Can't wait to try the pizza.
Forget about Katz's Delicatessen in NYC, they can not compete with Resa Ruben. Donald, the owner, is the greatest and most humble chef in the East Coast. His menu is creative and one of a kind. We are regular customers since our first visit in August 2019. Some months later, Donald started renovations but it coincided with the Pandemic so the renovation is going very slowly. Don't let yourself be disappointed when you arrive there and you see constructions are going on, it's the food that matters. And, the food is unbleivably cheap compared to the quality. I always tell Donald he has to double his price!
Resa Grill is a great restaurant! I had the Sweet Pig pulled pork sandwich. The sandwich was made to order, fresh and very tasty. It was seasoned perfectly to enhance the pork. The owner Donald really takes pride in his cooking and restaurant. I high recommend this restaurant to all, you won't be disappointed! If I did not live out of state I would definitely frequent often! But will be back when I'm in town!
I've been going here for almost two years now. I love the management and the food--Donald is super talented at what he does and he makes sure that his customers are well taken care of. I try to refer as many njit students as I can to this place, because Resa Grill deserves it. I love the Vermont Rooster especially! It is absolutely delicious and phenomenal. I suggest calling 20-25 minutes ahead since everything is made from scratch.
Amazing food and customer service. I had the chicken parm sandwich and fries and it's to die for!
