Located in the Robert Treat Hotel across from NJPAC, this polished restaurant — now renamed — pairs attentive, friendly service and well-crafted cocktails with an attractive pre-theater ambiance. While several dishes (steak, crab cake, cheesecake) impress, menu inconsistency is a recurring problem: some entrees and desserts have been described as underwhelming or inedible. Service is generally strong but can be slow; paid parking and a disconnected old phone number have caused confusion. Visit for drinks and select dishes.
Third class service. I waited one hour before the waiter took my order. May be the place is not that brown friendly, since I witnessed the favoritism. There’s something seriously wrong with humanity.
The restaurant has a new name- Medallion I believe. We ate at the bar. The staff was lovely and attentive. I had the grilled tilapia and shrimp over mashed potatoes. My friend had the shrimp coctail and cheesy fries. All delicious. We asked to speak with the chef because we were trying to figure out some of the ingredients because it was THAT good. She came out. Had a nice time discussing the food. I highly recommend this place. We went on a Friday night. I would absolutely go here again
The atmosphere, food and service were top notch. This is a very well run and beautiful restaurant and a hidden gem in the city of Newark. I had the pre-fixe pre-Theater menu with a crab cake appetizer full of fresh crab meat and a side salad, the Garlic Shrimp and for dessert a Lemon-Orange Mousse. Everything was beautifully presented and the perfectly served. The service was friendly without being over-whelming and both the hostess and waiter were very patient with a testy theater crowd. It has all the components, a beautiful restaurant with wonderful food and great service.
One of my preferred spots to eat. great location, always clean, and very good customer service. I recommend this place!
