"This place is destined to become a legendary landmark should NJ be destroyed and we had to select which places were most memorable in our history. The ambiance and decor here are unique and beautiful all which seems to be artistically balanced and well taken care of. Beautiful backend restaurant settings, a large wood based bar setting, with side stations where darts and other games are available. The goal of my visit was to explore and savor their craft beers that are brewed onsite. I visit many breweries to explore their brews and while one finds many winners, there's always a few brews that aren't agreeable with your tastebuds. At Gaslight Brewery, every beer I sampled was a hit! There were 2 types of brews I'm generally not fond of, but they were so carefully crafted at Gaslight, that they were pleasurable experiences. In short, Gaslight has experienced brewers who understand that crafting beer is both an art and a science. Others in my party had foods and they expressed stellar joys with their eats. Menu does have a great selection of eats. Another awesome factor to this place: no overbearing TVs. I know this sounds odd, but many places are plastered with 8 15 large screen TV's blasting different sports simultaneously. It's distracting. It steals from your experience. Here, there are 2 4 small TV's that are strategically placed in areas for those that need to watch sports. The ambiance here is dim in evening with excellent selections of tunes playing in the background, while a candle quietly glows on your table. Initial service seemed a bit slow, but that's a waiter employee issue. Heck, the bartender with the legendary beard walked to our table to take drink orders and genuinely asked if we were enjoying our experience. He was kind, charismatic, and genuine in his sincerity. I believe he is the owner. Thank you sir for a memorable time. Place is highly recommended for good brews and eats in a chill ambiance. Oh, you can park around on side streets and use the brewery's rear entrance. Should you be interested in beer making, inquire about the courses and supplies available on the top floor."

"As for the service, there have been several issues. On one occasion, despite arriving well before closing time, we found it difficult to get any attention as the staff started to close down early due to a slow day, which made us feel unwelcome. In our most recent visit, we arrived 40 minutes before closing, not realizing the time. As soon as we were seated, the server immediately asked for our order. Since we had just sat down, we requested a moment to decide, but the server was very rude in response. To make matters worse, all the staff seemed to be watching us and giving us dirty looks. Even though there were still several diners in the restaurant and we had no intention of lingering, we apologized and explained that we didn’t realize the time and decided to leave. One staff member insisted it was fine and there was plenty of time, but the glaring and rude behavior persisted. Naturally, this made us feel tense and uncomfortable, leading us to walk out without placing an order. It’s unfortunate that such behavior detracts from what could otherwise be an enjoyable dining experience, especially given the quality of the food, even though the prices are on the higher side for Mexican cuisine. I believe if the restaurant prefers not to serve customers close to closing time, it would be wiser to adjust their hours rather than resorting to passive-aggressive behavior."
