Mom used to work at the courthouse and they were hosting an open house after a big remodel of the big courtroom. We went specifically to Elliot's since It was the Sparta Restaurant back in the day... everything was great, server, food and drinks. We had three varieties of their street tacos, deep fried cheese curds and the May special martinis (and maybe two other flavors). We had a great day in Newark!

Welcoming ambiance, friendly service, and tasty food and drinks. We enjoyed everything we ate. Appreciate a flavorful pizza crust that’s sturdy enough to hold up all the toppings without collapsing.

We had been here once before and enjoyed it immensely. Today was no exception! The Shishito peppers in olive oil and herbs with a side of dressing had the perfect tang, the grilled Brussel sprouts in honey Sracchia topped with shaved white cheddar were to die for and the Ruben sandwich was luscious. Our server, KATIE , was efficient, helpful, attentive and very friendly. It was a pleasure to stop there to unwind and relax in their cordial atmosphere and I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for pizza, fired in a brick oven, subs, appetizers and a cold brew.

Our waitress did not stop the whole night. She was so busy but was awesome! The summer cocktails they have taste incredible! The blackberry bourbon sour is my favorite! They have 20 beer taps so plenty to choose from. The portabella mushrooms are the perfect appetizer and the horseradish dip is so flavorful. The wood fire pizza is delicious too. I tried the protein stir fry with chicken and it was good but I think the pizza is my favorite. The unisex bathrooms are handicap accessible and also have changing tables in them. The building is so cute and right in downtown Newark. Ole entry of seating at the bar as well as tables and booths. Definitely coming back!

My daughter-in-law and I stopped for lunch before going to the Arcade. Our server was Taylor, and she was a gem. She was professional, personable, knowledgeable about the food and made suggestions. You have a real asset with Taylor. She also makes a great martini. I will be back. Judy Young

Love the atmosphere, the interior is gorgeous and excellent music in the background. Service is top notch, our waitress was very quick on refills and knowledgeable of the menu, and made great recommendations. Very clean and organized facility and restrooms. The Philly sandwich with sauce was great! We will certainly return in the future.

Fun atmosphere with good upbeat music, nice service and great food!! The Brussels Sprout Appetizer was excellent and the tomato bisque soup was good. The Pizza was amazing with a thinner crust which is crisp on the thin edges and the perfect chewiness everywhere else. Don’t Miss: The Pickle Pizza! Even the Margherita Pizza was really good! Definitely opt for the butter garlic crust option if you like Garlic. Pizza’s didn’t taste burnt like some wood fired pizzas. Was excellent.
