Food was excellent. Seating by the kitchen was not so good. We did ask for a table change and still was seated close to the kitchen. There were empty tables more in the back. We love Varka.

Always the best experience. Most outstanding restaurant in New Jersey!

Consistent! Excellent food you know what to expect and they never disappoint.

Classy setting. A place to return to!

Overall very good with one exception.
Despite my reminding both the hostess and waitstaff (twice ) that it was a birthday celebration and that I wanted some sort of acknowledgement there was none. Otherwise a good experience.

The food was very good. We started with tuna tar tar and the meatballs, had the sword fish, the sea bass, and the filet mignon and really enjoyed it. We finished with the baklava, and wouldn't have changed a thing. The service was great, they kept checking on us to make sure everything was good. Really lovely outing.

Varka never disappoints. Excellent for, service and ambiance. A great way to celebrate a special night.

Our dining experience was excellent, driven greatly by our server, Nico, who was phenomenal! Thank you!

Family birthday gathering

Bit pricy and table was small.

Very nice selection of appetizers. Food was delicious. Service was perfect.

The food is very tasty. Service was very slow, I attribute it to not having enough employees working.
Prices are extremely high, in addition to that they charge 3.5% service charge if you pay with a credit card. That is the only restaurant in the area that adds the service charge.
They raise their prices constantly and now they want to charge you more by adding a service charge. Do not plan on visiting this restaurant in the future.

Everything was great!

The food is always fabulous and today's meal was made even more special by the attentiveness of our waiter, Favian.

First time at Varka, having heard so many wonderful things from others. And we were not at all disappointed. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Food was amazing.! but the service was horrible. We felt like we were being rushed out of there. Waiter never came to check on us and wasn’t very polite when we ask about the menu.

A nice meal, very expensive, but portions are generous. I felt there was too much seasoning on the swordfish dish, it took away from the natural flavors, but overall enjoyable. The wait staff was attentive and the food came quickly, however the waiter lacked personality and seemed almost bored with being there. It was a nice date night, but we aren’t rushing to go back.

Delicious food, as always.

Food is always great and this time was no exception. I got a burger for lunch and it was one-of the best I have ever had.

We love Varka! Fresh langoustines and the delicious green beans are our go to order. Octopus app is sooo tender and delicious. This last time someone tried sardines and said they too were amazing. I also love the beet salad, the Greek salad and the dip trio. Usually the Varka chips are a winner, but this time they were ok but not as crisp as usual. It is quite loud which is why the ambiance is a 4 not a 5.

Our food was delicious!

Always a great meal at Varka.

Great food and excellent service

Eating outside was quiet and pleasant.Service was not rushed. Food was beautifully presented. I will repeat the prix-fixe lunch.

Great food, good settings. It is a bit on pricy side, but quality is definitely there. Great variety of meals both fish and stake.

Found dinner prices exhorbitant.
Everything a la carte too. Will only return for luncheon menu!!

Anniversary

Great food, wonderful service. The outdoor tent is perfectly spaced and nicely ventilated - a truly enjoyable evening.

You can't go wrong going to Varka Restaurant. The food is excellent, grilled octopus, Varka chips, langostino's are excellent. I have never ever had a bad meal here!

I wish the outdoor dining was like it use to be. It was much nicer without the tent. The ambience in the tent is cold, needs some decor.

Go Try it You Will Love It!!

Everything was delicious....our waiter was not very attentive. And BTW there was plenty of staff....

Food and service was excellent. Will be back in the near future.

Most incredible meal we have had in a king while. The portions were huge. Fish very fresh. Had a Greek wine which was delicious.
Will be back!!

Another place that charges premium prices for mediocre food. Most dishes were bland. Drinks were good.

Varka never fails me. Today's $29 lunch was first class. A brilliant fish soup, followed by perfectly grilled Meditarian Sea Bass, accompanied with Broccoli-Rob. The Yogurt was a perfect dessert.

We had grilled octopus, Greek tomato salad , fried zucchini and eggplant as appetizer. All were excellent. Our dinner entree was the Mediterranean snapper, it was grilled to perfection! A wonderful dining experience.

Everything was good

Excellent food and service

Delicious!

Food and service are great. Disappointing when you frequent a place and only get a nod from mgt as if it was your first time there...IF you even get that.
Frankly it's time to drop the 3.5% surcharge for not paying cash. It's not a lot of money but the prices there are high enough without insulting the patrons. We've been to much better restaurants in NJ and have never come across a credit card surcharge. As much as they'd like to think they're in New York they are not.

We had a fabulous time at Varka last night. From the food to the drinks to the service and everything in between. We will be back.
