Mason Jar

We went here today and I have been here once in the past and the portions were tiny Two appetizers cost about $40 the bang bang shrimp appetizer & was literally five shrimp and the it was short rib quesadilla was 1 quesadilla cut in half.

We ordered 2 barbecue entrees to split the brisket was four slices.. short rib was literally two by two it was good but it was tiny. The mashed potatoes were good but a very small serving. The Mac & cheese was made with American cheese.

3 other guests had a triple decker sandwich, & a Cobb salad and 1 guest ordered salmon with two sides the salmon looked very small.

We were with an older woman who only wanted a hotdog off the kids menu she was told she has to order 2. So much for senior discount she's a retired nurse.

Overall atmosphere is good food was decent service was great nice ladies..If you like bang for buck probably not your jam pretty expensive for what you get

What I loved most about this place was the vibe that it set out. It was like a pub/bar/steakhouse with very nice decor. The staff was also very attentive.

The food: it was all very good! I got a steak dinner. My steak was cooked right, seasoned well and very tasty! The mashed potatoes were phenomenal and the Mac and cheese was also very good. Super creamy.

There is a huge parking lot as well so plenty of parking! Got here about 5pm during the week and did not have a wait.

If you're looking for a greasy buffet in a crowded place with bedraggled waitstaff, this is your place.

The food is okay. I don't know what oil they use to cook things, but whatever it is, it's too much. For a place called by a tool in the home canning process, I expected the food to taste more fresh, more home-cooked, but everything tasted like fast food.

The servers *seem* overworked and understaffed even though many of them are just standing around. Even so, it was difficult to get anyone's attention.

The ambiance is fun for a country cafe sort of experience. But I was just really disappointment in the buffet.

The worse!!! Service and food terrible!!
Over priced!!!
Rude, arrogant and not accommodating.
Food was not hot and was dry. So terrible!!!
I should have walked out!! I highly advise not to go there!!!

This is a nice pub-style restaurant with good ambiance and solid food options. Worth a visit if you happen to be in the area.

With a young child, I'm not often looking to dine at any sit down restaurants just due to the time commitment and environment. However, we went during a slower time so it wasn't too much of an issue here.

Service is good, server was attentive, food was solid. I had the chicken fried steak, which was spot on. A member of my party needed to have their steak cooked a bit longer and it got done without any issues.

Overall, a solid experience.

Mason jar is always a solid food choice when hungry. They are one of the few spots where the kitchen is open late on weekdays for when you're hungry. Service is always great. From time to time it can take a bit of time to get a table on busier or slow nights. But personally I think the food is always worth the delay.

Nachos here are an absolutely must try. Each chip is perfectly covered and layered within the pile. Ordered pulled pork on the nachos this time and it was truly delicious and filling. The Buffalo chicken wrap here is great because it's not breaded but grilled chicken. They use blue cheese and I personally always swap it out for ranch. The short rib was delicious and tender.

The inside of the restaurant is definitely outdated but has a very cozy and welcoming vibe to it.

Been coming to the Mason Jar on and off since the mid 1970's when I was a student at Ramapo College, right down the road. Food quality has gone up & down over all the years. My husband, who I met at Ramapo 40+ years ago now stop in for a few drinks and their delicious nacho platter. We usually sit at the bar where there are people even off-hours and TVs, with sports games.
My big complaint is their choice of news stations on the TVs. They only show FOX news which is super right/conservative/pro-Trump. I'm not far left but this irritates the crap out of me when I'm trying to relax. Sometimes I feel like an argument could erupt at the bar (not from me, just the vibe that channel gives) Why can't they put on something else, anything? There's no sound. How about some Mr Bean or nature shows? Music videos? Why have such a divisive, polarized news show? We can all watch what we want at home. Are the owners thinking enough about this? I doubt it.

Cajun Burger was a little dry. Could have had a few more Fries too. Steamed Clams are my go to. Packaged Well for Take Out.

Thank you Teresa for being so kind to me during my time of need and loss. I Mason Jar is an excellent place for food and drink :-) I will be back at least three times in the next three days.

This place unfortunately has gone downhill over the years in food quality. I remember when I used to love coming here, however sadly that feeling has changed drastically. I'm guessing that the hotel next door is the only thing that really keeps them in business.
