This economy is rough. 5 Guys is now a $25 meal if I want a burger, fries, and a shake.

The only difference is I know how 5 Guys makes me feel. The itis šŸ¤¤. I hope this new spots food is also good.

Iā€™m more shocked by the 3.00 coleslaw. How is coleslaw not free when youā€™re paying $16 bucks for 10 wings?!?

They have a full bar, but a beer menu thatā€™sā€¦ meh.

The wings are great, as are the dumplings. Oh, also the Parmesan fries. My biggest complaint is that I got too many fries to eat.

Nice.

I was there last week but didnā€™t try much. Glad it has good food. Needs to, given its footprint.

Woof those prices. There are not nearly enough mid tier priced restaurants in this city.

Lemme fix that - Was at the Dino bbq spot. Hell bbq had problems attracting people with no vivid and full office buildings - as full pre Covid that is.

Well, itā€™s named ā€œmad for chickenā€ ā€¦

But the truffle fries are really good, and the dumplings were spinach and cheese. I donā€™t know when their full menu will be available.

And the website prominently features vegan chicken options.

If they intend to open a restaurant of such a large size, in such a prominent location (aka high rent), maybe they should think a little longer about the market theyre serving. You simply cannot have zero (0) vegetarian entress.

If a party of 6 wants to get dinner before an event at the Pru, and just one of them is vegetarian...the entire party will have to go elsewhere.

I guess they all run the many failed restaurants in newark lol.

Didnt realize "its hard to success in the food business, dont immediate scare customers away" is such a scary message for this crowd

Ive seen like 6 100% meat soul food restaurants open and close downtown in the last 3 years.
