I could eat at Efe's every day. Don't let the campus location throw you - this is good, authentic Turkish food! Portions are heaty and quite reasonably priced. Not a fancy place - but, hey, sometimes you just want a darn good meal.

Good, honest food! I love the ambiance, the friendly wait staff, and the fact that I always leave with a doggie bag. Delta's was a pioneer in New Brunswick's culinary scene and continues to be a good choice for a satisfying dinner.

Don't let the reviews that complain about the food texture keep you from trying Makeda. Be adventurous and embrace the different textures and flavors. Yes, the seafood platter may seem expensive but it is more than enough for two people and, in my experience, loaded with different kinds of seafood. Platters are a good way to discover your favorite entre. The lunch menu is good, too, and a great bargain.
I want to like Steakhouse 85 but on two occasions I ordered a very expensive cut of meat and was disappointed. It just wasn't all that good. Friends seem to think it is a great place, so maybe I just had a few unlucky visits (the 3rd time I had the hamburger and it just OK). I will give it another try - but when someone else is picking up the tab.
