Maize - Menu

Nice place, now have a other name, Medallion, but is so nice and the food is delicious

Terrible food. The pancakes had a bland taste, reminiscent of Play-Doh, and the strawberries were sour. Given the price, one would expect better quality. I recommend steering clear of this place!

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. View menu

We visited Maize for the second time recently. It is sort of becoming a habit before seeing a show at NJPAC, which is right across the street. The restaurant is in the Robert Treat hotel, so you can conveniently park in the Military Park Garage, walk upstairs for dinner, then walk across the street for the show.

We reserved a table at the hotel for a major event and needed breakfast. Our waitress was very attentive and regularly checked on us, so we never had to ask for water refills. The breakfast was delicious. We also enjoyed a few drinks, which were great. The manager came by to make sure everything was okay. As for parking, it’s $25 if you’re a hotel guest and $20 for others.

Hadn’t eaten at Maize for a while so we thought we’d give it another try since we had a show across the street at NJPAC… the only item worth consuming were the cocktails. Everything, everything we ordered was disgusting. Calamari that tasted like fried rubber bands to some type of ricotta, shrimp, salmon dish that looked and tasted like a soupy mess…don’t eat here save your money View menu

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.

1. The staff is outstanding—attentive and friendly. 2. The drinks are also commendable. I have no complaints; they are well-made and quite enjoyable. 3. Now, onto the food, which brings me to my first issue: inconsistency. I rarely feel inclined to write negative reviews, and I'm trying my best not to do so here. I ordered a medium rare steak, and it was absolutely perfect—100%. However, my dining companion had the Brazilian steak with ham and egg, along with rice and chips, and it was unfortunately inedible. The sauce tasted unpleasantly reminiscent of egg foo young, but not in a good way. My suggestion would be to remove this dish from the menu if it doesn’t meet the quality of your other... View menu
