Hands down the best experience I had buying furniture. I ordered an entire closet system on Sunday morning and by 4:30pm it was delivered to my second floor apartment by two very professional and accommodating gentlemen . Never had delivery service like this ... I think IKEA just became my favorite ..

Man, these meatballs are so overrated. If I didn't get the combo that comes with mashed potatoes and gravy, I'd be dying from the salt content. They do have at least a nice texture with some char and crunch on the outside. Not sure why there's cranberry sauce. Do they think it's Thanksgiving? Where's the turkey? The mac and cheese had less cheese than flour and literally was super pasty and didn't have much flavor. Much like the furniture, it looks good in pictures, but not great quality in practice. I came a bit late so they were rushing to close up shop and even started turning off the soda machines. I think the sodas are the best tasting thing here. Pear soda is delicious and probably gives diabetes for how sweet it is. The cola tastes kind of weird, so I'd stay with the juices. I'll probably never eat at IKEA again, even if they have frozen meatballs to buy separately. Leave it to the Italians.

I like this location. It's always clean. 5 stars for the friendly food server I had last Sunday. I bought a dresser here and even opened the box to only realize it wouldn't fit. This place took it back no problem!

I'm writing this as I sit here and leaving . Let me start by saying I would of left Sooner if I wasn't so hungry but that was a mistake me and my family went to the "restaurant" part and it was still 3 hrs till closing and they didn't want to make chicken tenders for my son they looked like they were just tryin to get rid of everything from earlier .... EVERYTHING was stale the fries hard as rocks and everything was room temp not hot paid $29 for something I could have just bought frozen and eaten at home all the workers on their phones and the fountain drinks are suuuuppppperrrr carbonated and watered down .... Just wow they really just gave up.

I always find something when I go by IKEA. Their low prices in the bargen barn are no longer a bargen.Kid-friendliness: My kids love this store food and products. They love the way it's set up also. No crowds while moving around.Parking: Always good parking area.

The seating area is clean and pleasant. You get a nice view of the traffic on i95.They now have a vegan version of swedish meatballs but I did not try them.

Where else can you eat and watch planes take off from Newark Airport and not be in an airport? The restaurant at Ikea of course!Nice atmosphere with big windows which make for a great view.The food is classic ikea. Famous for their swedish meatballs. A new entry, Ikea now serves plant based swedish meatballs and they are excellent! Do get the sauce that comes with it, I forget the name but it's awesome. At my table the consensus was that the plant based meatballs were better than the meat based meatballs. Go figure.The desserts are all very good, they are usually chilled which adds an additional dimension. Salmon was ok, a bit overcooked and here is where dinner or lunch at Ikea can be less than stellar. If it's busy, the food moves to the point where the kitchen is just keeping up. If it's not busy food can sit on the steamers and get a bit overcooked. The kitchen does an overall awesome job and it's a fun place to eat.Vegetarian options: They serve plant based meatballs

How can you go to Ikea without stopping in at the Restaurant for Sweedish Meatballs and Mashed Potatoes? Of course one has to have dessert as well!

One of the worst ikea I've been to, (except for the friendly staff, the staff was pretty great). We came early June 2023. It was a very hot day and there was almost no AC. The whole family was uncomfortable, we couldn't believe how warm it was in the store. The layout of the store is unnecessarily difficult to navigate. Its common at other locations to have to pass a showroom to get to the cafeteria, at this location you have to go through a bit of the showroom to reach the cafe. This is already frustrating but more frustrating when you're traveling with children and a family member with a handicap. The cafeteria food which is pretty consistently pleasant in most ikeas (I've visited in multiple states) was the worst I've had. Hard, unbreakable salmon. Hard chicken tenders, hard meat ball. The food just wasn't fresh and up to par with what I expect fromIkea. We traveled out of our way while en route to another state to stop here as a family to surprise our kids and get them stuffed animals, lunch and some ice cream. Of course the ice cream was not available / or the machine was not working. To check out they made everyone do it themselves in an area that definitely had no AC. We're all sweating. We bought dozen of little cups and had to put a bunch of them in manually or in groupings, while an employee stood over everyone's shoulders and watched. Employees all around, none of the registers open. I don't understand this. All of the customers standing around in long lines, holding their items, sweating, trying to check themselves out while dropping items and just looking as flustered as us. It doubled our time getting our of the store. Then we finally step out from the closest exit and its no where near the entrance and where we parked and they have a barrier to prevent the cart from leaving the area near the exit, so you have to either go get your car or carry all your items over the barrier in the open, hot parking lot. It was truly awful and in no way geared toward ease for the customer and / or did not put customer experience in mind. Will never return to this location.

Food (4/5): Overall pretty good food. I enjoyed the meatball plate and the lemon crusted cod. I didn't like the Salmon because it was extremely dry and tough. I was surprised by this because we arrived around 10:15am when Ikea just opened and would've assumed the salmon would've been fresh. Also got the tenders plate which was pretty good.Service (5/5): The servers were friendly and helpful they also gave me a cup for water. No issues with the service and most people were friendly. The people in the store in general also seemed helpful.Ambiance (5/5): The store layout can be overwhelming initially but once you figure out that it's a bidirectional path for different sections, it ends up being better. It is a bit confusing and not like any other store. Overall though great ambiance, giant store, and amazing amount of options.

We stopped by this location before heading home to get a snack. The store was huge and had a similiar layout to other IKEAs. You can walk through the showroom or go straight to the restaurant or warehouse. We stopped by at the restaurant before visiting the showroom.The line to be served was empty and there were a few people eating. We ordered our food and the server gave my friends extra meatballs without them asking. We assumed because they were closing within the hour. When we went to pay, we noticed the cashier charged us for the extra meatballs even though we didn't ask for it.My friend enjoyed their cake and meatballs. I was a bit disappointed with the chicken tenders. The meat is now processed and had that spongy meat compound texture instead of the whole white meat option they used to have. The food was lukewarm but it was filling and affordable for the cost. I am disappointed that the quality of the chicken tenders has gone down because that was my favorite thing to get here.
