Review from Christina H.
Fort Dix, NJ
I liked the place but the fellas did not because its not your typical sports bar in the least. It was our first night as we just reported to Dix and we had a birthday in the group and it was the Sunday night of the football game of the Saints and the Dirty Bird Falcons and I had some rivals amongst me. So we all caravaned here and I was able to make reservations via Yelp for our big group and they had us set up and ready to go. I was really impressed with the menu and had a hard time figuring out what to get but I got the Alstarz burger and some truffle fries that they did not charge me additionally for and that was a plus in my book. The burger was fantastic and the truffle fries were AMAZING!! OMG!! I still think about that fries til this day. Birthday girl had the cajun wings and they were delicious as well as impressive with the spice and dirty rice that they served under the wings. It was really good. Everyone loved their food just not the price and for their drinks they didnt like the fact that they didn't have any specials. I loved it because it can be considered a sports bar for girls if you ask me based off of the food offerings alone. I can't wait to try the New Orleans Jazz Brunch that they have on Sundays. I will review that too.

Review from Scott C.
Chesterfield, NJ
Here's the deal: the food is actually pretty good. They've got a really wide selection of menu items and everything is really tasty. The decor is cool too. I've only been there a couple of times and it wasn't too crowded which is a good thing. Perhaps it gets full for Eagles games (although they're a lame team, all of my fellow locals are sucka Eagles fans). They've got a decent selection of beers on tap as well as a respectable variety of specialty drinks: everything from upscale martinis to girly drinks. The only downside is the slow service. Not sure if it was due to the kitchen staff, our waiter, or both. That having been said, I'll be back.

Review from Ryan L.
Trenton, NJ
After deciding not to wait in a huge line for Mastori's, we ventured across the lot and to Alstarz. Wait service was a bit slow and a bit too aggressive. I got the Cuban Sandwich and the bottom half of the sandwich was horribly greasy and was a complete mess. Truffled fries weren't so truffled. Not really my speed there - check it out for the drinks and TVs for sports.

Big Potential, Even Bigger Letdown
Great ingredients but food was bland and overall not seasoned much at all. Service was good to start then slowed down after dinner was served.
On the flipside they have a lot of nice TVs and a good looking crowd : )Comment from Dave F. of Alstarz Sports Pub 7/19/2011

Disclaimer: I am only writing about the bar after 11pm for dancing and drinking
3.5 I came here a few times with my friends. Living in this area, i havent found too many places to go dancing, but i enjoy coming here. the music is good and the drinks are (usually) strong. a little pricey..but whatevs. out of the five times i've been here, it has only been packed once. i've only been here on friday nights, so maybe the crowd is different on other nights..not sure. decor is nice..overall a cool spot to hang out with a group of friends and to meet new people in the area -
Review from Dave W.
Went last night with a party of 11 and had a good meal but the only thing that makes it a sports bar is the numerous TVs. We were seated inside but they have a very nice, partially covered patio area with a small bar. the inside bar is large and was pretty crowded.
Food is good and the selection impressive. We had a variety of appetizers (Asian Garden Salad, Nachos, Coconut Shrimp and Soups) and they were thoroughly enjoyed.
The entrees and sandwiches ordered were all very good (my bacon cheeseburger was huge) with some leftovers taken away.
All in all, not a bad place for a meal. The decor is very nice, but if they want to be called a sports bar they need some local color from NY, Philly and Trenton. -
Review from Allie M.
Washington, DC
My cousin took me (her out-of-town guest) here on a warm summer Saturday evening. We started with a few cocktails on the patio, which were amazingly refreshing and potent. She had told me that the portion sizes were gigantic, so we split a few appetizers:
-Grilled brie with a papaya fruit chutney and granny smith apple slices, served with pita bread and gourmet crackers (5 stars!)
-Two crabcakes (so perfectly soft) served with remoulade, tomato bruschetta and balsamic reduction (5 stars!)
-Crispy stuffed avocado rolls, stuffed with crabmeat, served with a mixed green salad and a lime remoulade (4 stars)
Our server, Tim, was super friendly and patient as we sat an enjoyed each other's company for nearly four hours. If one of my teams was playing that night, this would have been a great spot to catch the game, with all the high-def TVs.
Later inside, music was blasting and lights were flashing, like the restaurant was attempting to be a club, which I found a bit odd since the feel of the place was more family-friendly.
If my cousin wasn't moving to northern Jersey, I would definitely want to come back here. It's a great complement to Mastoris across the parking lot. -
Review from Joseph B.

3.5 stars
Sports Pub does not do this place justice. It is more of a restaurant/bar. Very open inside with plasma TVs all around. Has a really good atmosphere for going to watch the game or just having a few drinks with some friends. The bar area is well set up and never feels overly crowded. The food is decent but nothing to really write home about. However, their prices are rather high compared to the food you get. Beer selection is plentiful, but just like the food it is priced considerably high. I have never seen any great specials there besides on domestic light beers (Bud, Miller, etc.) which is not what I personally consider a special. Basically, if you have some extra cash and want to hang out in a place that looks neat and has some sick TVs, go to Alstarz.Listed in: My Spots, Top Restaurants

Review from Sarina C.
Morrisville, PA
Went on a Sunday to watch the Yankees game just after 4pm for 1/2 off wine and learned they also had 1/2 off pitchers of sangria ($8) - red or white but the white is made with rose. We tried the red and it was OK, but no fruit to be found : ( Munched on the nachos which were good. Done a bit differently, as all of the goods are placed on each chip which is cool cause this eliminates fighting for the good bite of cheese. Next up was a bottle of pino grigio which was OK, a little too dry for me but again, half price! We split one of the burgers with fries which was tasty and called it a day. Big plus was the multiple TVs on the patio!

Review from Kristen P.
Bordentown, NJ
Good space inside and outside-check. TVs everywhere-check. A large variety of beers on tap and bottle-check. Great food-check. And even more importantly, good service even when its more crowded than a Jonas Brothers concert (I can't believe I just used them as a comparative-ew). But seriously, this place has it together for a "sports bar." However, it is so much more. The food is clearly worthy of some nice praise. The flavor combinations are great for beer (salty!) and their desserts are delicious (sweet!). This place would be my heaven if I was a beer guzzling god...

Review from Perry A.
Robbinsville, NJ
The food here for a sports bar is very high quality. The burgers are huge, thick and juicy, love emm.. I especially like the Cesar salad dressing, being a long time Cesar dressing maker myself, I have to say this is the best dressing I ever had. It is creamy with fresh garlic in it, and has a good mixture of flavors of lemon and Anchovie where nothing overpowers, however you will stink later on, so make sure you and your significant other both share it. I even dip the french fries in the dressing. We have never had a bad meal there.

Review from MIchael L.
Bordentown, NJ
This is an excellent restaurant that also has lots of sports-playing TVs and a great bar selection. It has the best food in the general Bordentown area as far as I am concerned. It has one of NJ's largest terraces for outdoor eating (and smoking) as well. The outdoor experiences includes a gas-fired fireplace as well on cooler evenings. My only problem with it at all is that some of the servers are a bit too chatty and not as keen on service as I prefer them.
The food varies widely. Alstarz serves prime beef sliders, a raw bar, pasta dishes, steaks, burgers, sushi grade tuna salads, green salads of various sorts, grilled salmon, jambalaya, seafood crepes. There is definitely something here for everyone,and it is all wonderfully made stuff and in ample portions!
The portions sizes should be familiar to Mastoris clientele. The food, however, is targeted toward those preferring nouvelle cuisine.
