Our Top 10: Best Restaurant Recommendations Around EWR
Below is our list of the 10 best restaurants we believe you should check out around EWR.
Terminal A-3, 1 Newark International Airport St, Newark, NJ 07114, United States
Philips Seafood wins top honors on our list for its outstanding selection of niche seafood-based meals. They've got everything from grilled mahi mahi sandwiches to crab cakes and lobster rolls, so you'll have a proper variety before or after your flight. But perhaps the best bit is that Philips Seafood is located quite nicely, right after security at EWR itself. If you want more reason to book a table, Thrillist calls Philips Seafood the 'closest you get to fine dining in the airport cuisine category.' Isn't that perfect?
3 Brewster Rd, Newark, NJ 07114, USA
If you're new to the beer menu, this is definitely the place to check out next time you're at EWR. It's got an impressive selection of beers, from Leffe Blonde to La Chouffe to Sip a Duvel. The set-up is modern and inviting, and when you consider that they also have food (Belgian fries and cheese platters mostly, but you can also find sausages, beef stew, burgers and more occasionally), Belgian Beer Cafe becomes a proper choice for a short break before you join the security clearance line.
Newark Liberty International Airport, Newark, NJ 07114, USA
The Abruzzo Steakhouse really needs no introduction; its world-class steak has been highly reviewed by many. It's right after security at the airport, and you will definitely love the menu. Veal chops and chicken pam come along with all the steaks on offer, but you will also find a full bar, so don't you fret. Because of its any clients especially at peak hour, the Abruzzo's service tends to get lousier, so keep that in mind. It's smart not to expect too much.
58 Kossuth St, Newark, NJ 07105, USA
If you didn't get a chance to check out Philip's Seafood Grill at the airport, then don?t miss Allegro Seafood Grill on Kossuth Street down in Newark. They?ve got the whole food selection you might be wishing for, but you can always check out there menu online to be sure. Allegro's ambiance should also cheer you up, as should their jolly staff.
Newark, NJ 07114, USA
If you prefer a quick burger bite before your next flight or your next full length meal, you'll be hard-pressed to find a location at EWR that has a menu as impressive as that of Wanderlust Burger Bar. And in addition to its burger list, the 'Bar' in the title is brought to life by the many beer brands it offers on its display. You'll also love how perfectly situated it is, right after security.
Terminal B,3 Brewster Rd, Newark, NJ 07114, USA
If you're American, you've most likely been to a Wendy's near your home already, so we believe you will feel right at home at this EWR location. And since most of the fast food at EWR is highly priced, Wendy's offers and affordable option with a menu that everyone knows. You'll find Wendy's classics like fried chicken, burgers, pizza and more, and for the price you've always known.
130 Ferry St, Newark, NJ 07105, USA
Much like Fornos of Spain, we've featured this restaurant because of its quality service, wonderful menu and amenities, despite being a little far from the airport. It's perfect if you're staying in Newark or Elizabeth a while, or touring around. You'll love the grilled meats and other items on the menu too. Best part: it is super affordable.
47 Ferry St, Newark, NJ 07105, USA
Fornos of Spain is not just a unique titled restaurant; it's also one of the best around Newark Liberty Airport. While it's not the closest to the airport, it's still easy to access at 47 Ferry St. From online reviews, it's easy to see why families, individuals and tourists love it. It's not too packed with the latter though, so no need to worry. Add that to an impressive menu and you have gold.
Terminal C, Newark, NJ 07114, USA
The Garden State Diner has always drawn guests in by its sweet nostalgic interior design theme and its wonderful menu offerings. Review after reviews calls out the elegant table set-ups, the helpful staff, the unmissable breakfast, the on-point chef and most importantly, the affordability of its meals. If you are seriously considering a proper meal alone or with your family, Garden State fits perfectly like a glove.
665 Monroe Ave, Elizabeth, NJ 07201, USA
You haven't seen anything until you've dined at Valenca on Monroe Avenue. So say former guests, and it's not hard to believe. With a menu as exquisite as theirs and a location as convenient for any traveler as Valenca's it's easy to see why it's such a mainstay on the Newark dining scene. It's Portuguese cuisine will tingle your palate, with specialties like filet mignon on a hot stone. And if you're doubting the quality of service, where do you think the 4.5 star rating on TripAdvisor comes from?
