Agricola Eatery

We think food is a universal language -- it brings us together and nourishes us. In Latin, "Agricola" means "farmer," which embodies our farm to table spirit and our dedication to community and comfort. There is nothing we enjoy more than gathering old fr

Agricola is a farm. To table venue with a very nice atmosphere whether you sit in the bar, open kitchen or one of the more private rooms. Excellent bar, friendly, knowledgeable service and a well curated menu. I enjoyed the pork chop with a tasty, Asian hinted sauce. My wife had a halibut that was slightly over cooked and needed. More. Seasoning but came with a nice accompaniment and was not bad. The stars were our appetizers, a mushroom flatbread and a Spanish octapus with Chorizo. Berry crumble dessert was excellent- price and value not bad, especially considering the location. We would definitely return

Caddyshack Bar and Grill

Reviewed By Bill_From_Jersey

The bar stools are older and all seem to have seats that are bent a bit, giving you the feeling you are going to slide down. Bartender was pleasant, food was okay, but nothing more. The dining area felt more like a cafeteria area with the exception of the one wall with the fireplace (that was not on at the time). I am glad we went, but will not visit again unless I hear something has changed for the better.

Witherspoon Grill

Reviewed By creativecrew

One point of aggression that I found very frustrating is that we intentionally met at 5 PM to enjoy their reasonably priced happy hour and still we treating 9 guests to dinner with our table reservation—so they knew they would make their money from us. But the waiter refused to serve us the Happy Hour drink specials at our table and said it was for bar service only. We said okay—we’ll order our 3 drinks at the bar but want to bring them to the table since we are hosting six guests and want to be at our table when they arrive. The waiter said that would not be allowed. If the drink is ordered at the bar it must be consumed at the bar, not taken to a dining table. So then he proceeded to talk my colleagues into expensive glasses of wine from the non-Happy Hour menu. In a spirit of priests, I waited until Happy Hour was over before ordering my full price wine. UGH!The food was okay. The tuna avocado martini smelled fishy and a few of our guests tried a bite but that appetizer went pretty much uneaten. The bread was a decent sourdough, but when the basket ran out no one refilled it. That said, my entree of beef short ribs was fantastic! Heavy with the mashed potatoes, but really tender, not fatty, and super flavorful. So a 2 for service and a 4 for food—quality varied by what people ordered.

Mostly A Takeout Food Place... Sandwhich Shop With Cheesesteaks Etc.

Reviewed By bassjwp

This place is a Plainsboro staple and has been here forever. Everything everyone else has said is true: sandwiches are filling and good, it can get crazy during lunch (call your order in!) and the daily specials are pretty good. Make sure you check a menu before ordering, a large is a 22" sub, and while the staff is pretty good at warning people of the fact both in store and over the phone, I have seen a customer show up and have no idea what they were in store for. Parking appears limited, but there's a decent sized lot behind the store, so don't despair if the 3-4 spots in the front of the store are taken. Other than that, I've never been disappointed with anything I've ever ordered there: hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, wraps and salads. Many of their soups of the day are excellent, too. All in all, one of the most reliable lunch spots in town, and a far better value for your money in terms of quality and quantity than the Panera down the road.

Blue Point Grill

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

Reviewed By JoeG63

Dined at this quaint Princeton sea food restaurant with some international colleagues on a Tuesday evening. The sidewalk tables were full so we dined indoors. Food selection of fresh fish was fantastic, as was the service. Many fresh fish were caught literally that day or the day before. They also own the sea food store next to the restaurant. Everything was great as far as the food (** This is a BYOB restaurant) but beware of the indoor seating when this place is packed. It is VERY LOUD to the point that we could not have a conversation across the table. It spoiled our dinner which otherwise was amazing. Please, Please install noise dampers on the walls or ceiling.

After having enjoyed dinners at many Ruth’s Chris restaurants across the country....this was disappointing. It was a group dinner in a private room. Service was average at best....ended up getting the bottles and pouring our own wines as the staff was inattentive.....ordered a rare filet that came med well....a few of us had that issue with the steaks. Was going to bring it up to the staff, but they took forever to return. A very disappointing night......We truly appreciate your feedback because it helps us improve.

Salt Creek Grille - Princeton

Reviewed By Cynthia A

Took my daughter and her boyfriend out to dinner. We were greeted well and shown to our table immediately; had made a reservation a few days ahead. The restuarant wasn't crowded and service was good. We all had the coffee encrusted steak at my daughter's suggestion. She had it during a previous visit and raved. Well turned out the steak was worth the price; enjoyed it tremendously. Atmosphere is fine if you have good company, otherwise a bit boring. But may have live music on the weekend, not sure. They do have a lovely double fireplace which can be utilized from the outside front area; nice for a few friends to gather in the fall for tapas or drinks.
