First time coming to this Stewart’s after driving past it numerous times. We ordered for takeout and ate upon arriving home. Ordering was simple and the food was brought out to us while we waited outside. There’s ample bench seating for use on a nice day. We got the California burgers with fries and onion rings. The burgers were super tasty, cooked well, and you could tell they were prepared with care. They looked so nice they could’ve been featured on a commercial. The fries were so good and were another highlight. The onion rings were breaded super well and you get a lot for your order. We also got a milkshake (not pictured here) which was just alright. But I’m interested in trying one again to see if it was just a fluke. Definitely coming back here soon.

Small joint serving great franks and burgers, and good ol Americana. ~ If you like a classic restaurant diner feeling, this is a neat little joint with fair prices, and great food. ~ Chili was certainly good on the hot dog ~ and hot dogs were pretty good.

I absolutely love this place. The food immediately brought me back to when I was a kid eating burgers at the cookout!!!! The atmosphere and location are so nostalgic. I believe it's the original building from the 50's or 60's. The floats are so good!! You should definitely check this place out!!

First time here, will be my last. Will drive to the East Brunswick location instead. I was the only customer yet waited literally 15 minutes for 1 cheeseburger, 1 chili cheese hotdog, 1 order mozzarella sticks. Everyone was nice, but the cook was not wearing gloves. I asked for light onion, ketchup and pickle for the burger, there was no ketchup but TONS of onions. The mozzarella sticks were not cooked inside, I had to put them in the microwave, and the sauce was watery and had an odd taste. The chili cheese hotdog had basically no chili no cheese, but TONS of onions again, even though I had asked for light onion on that too. The root beer float was good at least. The person taking the order had to use a calculator to add up my order, then added it up again "just to make sure the total was
