After seeing this bagel shop on Diners, Drive-in and Dives, we decided to give it a try. It is over 20 miles from our house but after looking at their menu and seeing the show, it seemed like it would be worth it. NOT! First of all, I came for the Spinach bagels listed on their website. They were not out of them, but it appears that they don't even make them anymore as there was no bin for them. Speaking of the bins, we were there around 10:30 am and they were mostly low/empty. What happened to the "we make thousands of bagels everyday and replenish them during the day" as stated on the show??? When did they plan to replenish the Asiago bagels which was empty???? We got the last two veggie and they had very little taste and just a hint of veggies! Since we drove a distance, we also bought two sourdough.
Again, very little taste.
I've always wondered if Guy Fieri is blowing smoke about some of the places he visits?
After going here, I now know it!
If this is the #1 restaurant in Plainsboro, I feel sorry for those of you who live there.

Fresh & simply prepared seafood served in a casual atmosphere with a gorgeous patio for warm weather dining.

It has been a few months since we visited Blue Point Grill ( we frequently purchase take out cooked shrimp at its adjoining Nassau Seafood) and once again had a very good experience. For entrees we had the flounder and fried shrimp; both were excellent and the portion sizes good. Our server (and her associates) was very attentive (she kept the iced tea coming for me...thanks). Some might consider it a little 'pricey' but for the overall quality of the food and service; it is worth it.
3. Halo Pub

Visited here on a cold November evening, after dinner out. Not many customers were inside, and the place felt a bit worn out. The kids working behind the counter were friendly and very helpful. There were lots of ice cream choices. We tried three of them, and they were good, but not great. In particular, I've had creamier and more flavorful ice cream elsewhere. The latte that I had was very good. I should add that the ice cream and coffee was much cheaper than expected. It's not a bad place to stop off for a quick treat, without spending a fortune. There are just other places that have ice cream that, for me, is more likely to get me to go out of my way (and perhaps pay a bit more).

This review is long overdue. While living in Princeton, I often enjoyed dining at Eno Terra with family and friends. Although it's located on Rt. 27 in Kingston, the restaurant borders Princeton, and, in my opinion, is the finest in the area. The food is fresh, local with great attention to detail and fine ingredients. In many respects, it reminds me of the small restaurants one would encounter while travelling through Italy where simple fare is fresh and full of flavor. Recently, our party had lunch there and enjoyed the zitoni, pan seared octopus and the Flat Iron steak with crispy potatoes. Eno Terra also offers a daily "Pranzo a Presto" three course luncheon which changes daily for $22. For the amount and quality of food, the price can't be beat! The rustic touches indoors and outside add to the lovely ambiance. The servers are always helpful and efficient. I highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to return!

Though it has earned a reputation for the excellent buns, don't neglect the many excellent dishes on offer. We are pleased with each return visit. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. The prices reasonable. And, don't fail to notice that the tables are always filled with Asian families which certainly wouldn't tolerate a lack of authenticity.
6. Olives Deli & Bakery

I was looking for a quick bite on the holiday and came across Olives. I tried the chicken souvlaki wrap and fruit salad. The sandwich was made in view, served hot. The fruit salad was fresh and of good quality. The only downside is inadequate seating. I had to settle for the bench outdoor and I was lucky to find it!
I do recommend this place for take out!!!

8. Small World Cafe

Reviewed By Duna36 - Tiburon, California
After giving up cappuccinos/coffee for almost 8 years, Small World Coffee got me hooked once more! Not only are their cappuccinos the best i've had anywhere, they make them with incredible consistency across all of their (super friendly) baristas. There is a nice selection of muffins and baked snacks on hand.
The Witherspoon St. location has a great college town vibe, with a wide range of people sitting at tables, chatting or working on laptops. They also have live music in the evening several times a month. This is a must try if visiting (or living in!) Princeton.

Closed down. Not enough interest in expensive strip mall for over priced coffee and pastries.
Nice place, however, local hangout for people who could not afford an office and took up space for hours. Best for sitting outside.
Forced to write more or review cannot post

Went there a few times while on business trips in town. It's just OK for a sandwich. Never had a bagel. The place is in a strip mall and is tiny. Probably enough seating for about 20 people.
