A phone call was made from “Kevin” who had to deliver the “bad news” from the owner TED that they aren’t capable of “pleasing” us continually. We order from them multiple times a week, and the issues are a simple fix. Charging us for full soups and calling us a liar saying the person filling them did their job correctly when they are in fact not. We are always respectful and polite when calling. We asked for utensils several times and it was an issue. And when they forgot to add them, they gave an attitude when called just to politely correct the issue so it didn’t continue. A cup (8 ounces) soup of the day was 4 ounces see photo.

Nestled in the heart of New Jersey, Lefty’s Tavern is a true gem that combines a warm and inviting ambiance with a delightful menu that caters to all taste buds. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in for a memorable dining experience.

Beautiful place! We ordered to-go twice from here, and it was super easy. We didn’t have to leave the car. The food was fantastic. The only complaint was that we were not given anything to eat with, but it was mostly my fault for not asking.

Worst service I’ve ever received in any restaurant, EVER ! Our server didn’t get one thing right from the start. 15 minutes to get to table, took drink order, forgot drink order. I had to go to bar. Then on refill, he never asked what I was drinking and never returned to ask. Half hour just to take our dinner order, another half hour never received our salad. Then 30 more minutes brought our dinners, oops forgot salads. Sent dinners back. Then when salads came, not by him by the way,and wrong dressings. Then completely wrong dinners delivered to our table. We both ordered Ribeyes and were serve fish.I’ll spare you all the rest of the details. Went to talk to the manager twice. Total disaster. Too bad because food was good when we finally got what we ordered. Two and a half hour ordeal. Never again!

Sat at the bar and had dinner there. Drinks were tasty and the food was really good. The Manhatten chowder was on point and the steak made perfectly (medium rare). The bartender was friendly and had a good sense of humor. Will go back.

Food was super great but what I was more impressed about was the service! My server was great but the hostess was even better!! The hostess Morgan had great hospitality and chatted up a great conversation with my family and I! I will definitely be coming back here for the food but more importantly the service!!

There food is delicious. Now I feel like having an order of drunken clams. The atmosphere is friendly and cozy. The servers are always pleasant. I had my daughters bridal shower there and they did not disappoint. I will be dreaming of drunken clams!

Had a repast for my departed mother at Lefty’s this past weekend. They did a great job of catering to our rather large crowd. I’ve had dinner there in the past and it’s always been great. Pork chops and peaches is a great creation of theirs.
