So I'm on travel for work, eating in a steak house here, somewhere outside of Newark, and they don't have free drink refills! Can you believe that? Are they in tune with the rest of the country?!?! I don't understand how anyone can live here.

There are way better places than Newark.

uhh, yes we do. Go up and get it. In fact, sometimes it's easier to get your drink from a close-by Burger King, and just stop in and fill up on the next one you pass.

This is a restaurant, not McDonald's.

Most places in CT and NY don't have free refills either. In fact, when entering a restaraunt or a fast food chain I don't expect to have free refills.

I'm wondering when the rest of the country will catch-up to the Tri-State Area (that's NY,NJ,CT... in that order). Get over it. The cost of living is higher here because more people -- wisely -- prefer to live here. The rest of the country is for us to visit. :D

I take it reason 6,381 is Newark itself.

Anyway, NYC is the same way at expensive restaurants. The cheap restaurants like Outback will give you refills. If you go to an expensive steakhouse like Peter Lugers or Sparks, you will get reamed on each drink.

Yeah.. what he said... only expect free refills when the menu indicates so. As any FYI: McDonalds has free refills if you ask... in most parts of the country.

LOL about the VA comment.


Jersey------------------------->The ARMPIT of the EAST COAST.


I've said it before and will continue saying it again and again. Man are there some P.O.S. areas in Jersey. New Yorkers aren't being here.

It's just TOUGH LOVE reality check! ;)

That's wonderful, judge an entire state based on one of its worst cities. By your logic, the entire state of Indiana must be just like the city of Gary.

If not STFU.

Look at a map of the US. look at the shape of NY and New England, what does it look like?? OMFG, it looks like an arm and WTF is NJ located OMFG it's located EXACTLY where an ARMPIT is.

I think NJ is probably one of the best states to live in. I just hate the insurance rates.

Thank you PA and NY Drivers~

Awesome!

They only have strip steak but it is one of the best I've ever had.

I've had Luger's the steak its good but they have no wine. Just a few types of bottles. Sparks has like $10M in wine in their basement.

I would rate Sparks as good as Luger's only Luger's has different varieties of steak.

I love living in NJ myself. but it isn't because of PA and NY. it's because the whole fvcking state of NJ has the population density of most Metro areas.


10 million people in the 3rd smallest state in the US will give you high auto insurance rates.

Hey, whatever keeps you suckas off my beaches and roads, you keep on believing.
You're right. NJ smells. We don't give free refills. It sucks. Stay away. We certainly don't want you.

No way, dude, it's these freaking tools who can't drive.
