   I recently had the pleasure of dining at this incredible restaurant, and I must say, it was truly an exceptional experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm and welcoming, showing us to our table and presenting us with menus. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, with dim lighting and soft music playing in the background. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, helping us navigate the menu and making excellent recommendations. The food was absolutely phenomenal! We ordered the [dish name] and [dish name], both of which were expertly prepared and presented. The flavors were bold and complex, and the portions were generous. The service was top-notch, with our server checking in frequently to ensure we had everything we needed. The prices were reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food and service. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and cozy atmosphere makes it a must-visit destination. *Highlights:* - Exceptional food quality - Attentive and knowledgeable staff - Cozy and intimate atmosphere - Reasonable prices *Will I return?* Absolutely! I'm already looking forward to my next visi

   I brought my mother and two sisters to House 157 in Roselle Park for Mother’s Day, hoping for a memorable evening. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a major disappointment. The service was extremely slow, the food lacked quality, and the entire experience felt chaotic and overpriced. We waited over an hour just to receive our appetizers, and it took nearly two full hours before the main dishes came out. For a dinner for four, we paid over $500 including tip, which was outrageous given the level of service and the underwhelming food. The flavors were forgettable, the portions didn’t match the prices, and the overall dining experience fell completely flat. I truly regret not going to Capital Grille instead, where we’ve always had reliable service and great food. House 157 is not somewhere I would recommend for special occasions or anyone expecting a smooth and satisfying dining experience.

   Unfortunately, it was our first and likely last time visiting this restaurant. The aesthetic is lovely, lighting and decor all on par with an elevated restaurant experience and that's where it ends. We waited over 30 minutes for our food, it was the wrong order completely for one of my guests, the remainder of the food was mediocre at best. Certainly not justifying the prices that they were charging. The music was way too loud and felt like it was more for the staff than the customers, more dancehall than brunch vibes? Even my Jamaican mule was flat, the ginger beer had not fizz to it. Overall, I'm sad. The menu and website looked super exciting, the experience itself, for Mother's Day weekend no less, was underwhelming.
