For "fish so fresh it swims to your table" step into this Japanese BYO in Princeton and let Koji Kitamura, "a real sushi master from Japan", make the selection for you; the "no-gimmicks" fare trumps the lack of ambiance and "spotty service" at this "tiny" spot that "won't let in groups larger than four."

"Have a burger", "your favorite ale" and some "random conversation about quantum physics" at this "old mainstay" Princeton American where most regulars opt for pub grub at the "fun bar" or in the enclosed patio, rather than "mediocre dinner entrees" in the formal dining room; either way, it's "a comfortable neighborhood place."

"If it swims, they have it" affirm aficionados of this über-popular Princeton BYO "storefront seafooder" serving "the freshest fish, unless you catch it yourself", that's "simply but expertly prepared" and ferried by "pleasant" servers in "modest" surroundings; most find it "worthy every penny" – and every minute spent in the "long lines" occasioned by "no reservations."

"Every time's as good as the first" rave fans of Bobby Trigg's American-French fare – especially "first-tier" seafood – at this "wonderful", "busy" "fine-dining" spot in Downtown Princeton that also garners "consistently high marks" for its "well-trained" staff; some find the decor "a little dark" and lament "New York prices", but BYO helps.

A "nicely updated" menu at this "icon" of "old Princeton" pairs Continental-French fare (veal cheeks and polenta, oysters mignonette) with New American dishes to mostly favorable reviews; but it's "not cheap", and some think this 90-year-old "could use a face-lift" – after all, "Einstein still dines here" via a photo over his favorite table.

A "big part of the Princeton" dining "scene" is this "solid neighborhood restaurant" offering "reliable" American-Continental cuisine and service that "usually stacks up"; the "comfortable" "bistro ambiance pleases", while the courtyard patio is "fine" for alfresco; N.B. an outdoor bar is expected to open in summer 2009.

Its "terrific location" and patio dining on Palmer Square help explain why Princetonians who appreciate this "bustling", "upscale" Mediterranean "consistent performer" willingly overlook the "crowded and noisy" conditions; N.B. the recent hiring of noted Spanish chef Luis Bollo and a post-Survey retooling of the menu and Decor may outdate the above scores.

To Princetonians, this Palmer Square Italian "mainstay" "defines cafe dining: casual, consistent, cheerful and a good value"; it offers "artisan" pizzas, "pretty good" pastas and a "respectable" wine list, but just "don't expect a quiet meal" given its "close-together" tables, and don't be surprised if there's a "wait on busy weekends" (it takes no reservations).

"Don't judge the food by the decor" at this Princeton "no-frills" "hole-in-the-wall" BYO Mexican in a residential neighborhood; its "local following" says it's the place for "good, cheap" south-of-the-border fare that's "tasty and reliable"; though the cash-only policy is "a drag" and the service "could use a little improvement" it remains "a local favorite."

"Conveniently" located in Downtown Princeton, this "cool", "cavernous" two-story "temple of beer" is "going strong" at 15; insiders suggest "go for burgers and beers", because although the seasonal "handcrafted" brews "can't be beat", the rest of the Eclectic-American slate is just "ok"; N.B. live bands Thursday–Saturday.
