Maize Restaurant

Wonderful food and service. A little pricey, but hey, you are very close to New York City, so it is competitive. I think the food quality merits the cost.

Nice sit-down restaurant near NJPAC. Its on the first floor of the hotel. The food is very nice and service is attentive. Not crowded when we went there.

1st I want to say that I DO NOT work here, nor do I know anyone that does, I, nor any family member , or friend is affiliated with this restaurant. So this review is completely honest of mine and my moms experience....On Friday 2/12/16 I purchased a $15 off of $30 or more, for $6, to use on 2/13/16. THEN I had wished I read the reviews BEFORE buying it. Most reviews of the place were awful, just awful. From the atmosphere, to the staff, to the food. (as you all can see) I was not going to go after seeing the reviews, BUT just coming in from out of town, (late) the night being so cold, the restaurant being in the same hotel we were staying at, and my mom and I being so hungry, we decided to go with convenience. BOY were we glad we did.. we were HAPPY with the WHOLE experience. From the time we stepped into the place, our most used word was "WOW". Wow over the ambiance, wow over how clean and beautiful the decor was, wow about the way the waiters were dressed and were attentive and quick, and then the food came. WOW!!!!!!!! I had the ceasar salad and my mom had the shrimp meal. I LOVE salad and this wasn't a disappointment at all. My mother who is a very picky eater (her husband is a professional chef) could not stop complimenting her shrimp dish. She LOVED it and is still talking about it! I have to say, it was the best shrimp I have ever had myself, and I can cook up some darn good shrimp scampi. The place is a very quiet relaxing atmosphere, (even considering the fact that every table was taken) Everyone seemed friendly and gave a smile, a table next to ours actually ordered the same thing we did, after we recommended it, when we saw them peeking over at how good ours looked and smelled, and they also said it was really good! The Price was $48, reasonable and well worth it. I hope I get the chance to be in this area again, because I will def. be eating at Maize's again!

Great place! Had my sons baptism dinner here and also my daughter confirmation. Excellent!

Fri 16th Oct 2015, o went into Maize before NJPAC show only to experience discrimination at its finest! I was alone,1
Attractive black female 2-3. The Hostess was cordial not friendly, who gave me a menu for three course meal!!!!! This was at 6:50pm I wasn't waited on til 7. The waiter saw me when I was seated and began waiting on a couple that was seated after me.! I asked the hostess about is this the only menu she said yes for tonight ! Later during the evening she placed a older white woman near me whom had reservations regarding the menu and she apologeticly asked the woman "would you like to see the regular menu?"" What!! Was she referring to the menu outside the door for everyone to see?!
Now I finally get my JUMBO crab cake actually was half of half crab cake w greens ! 7:30 now and I wait ,wait, ask hostess to get my check, while my waiter accommodate two separate tables after o made eye contact with him that I was finished .
Wasn't that busy , yet again maybe so while you hustle ripping people off mandatory 3course meal before a show !!! And go to sleep?! Why!
Something should be done about this!
