1922 On The Square

If you arrive by 5 PM you can have the place to yourself for about an hour and a half.Our waitress was amazing.The food was great too.A great place to give you the feel of old town Newark

We came to meet up with my aunt and her friends. Boyf and I sat at the bar for a drink first and I had a great Lemondrop Martini. Once seated with the others (7 of us in the back room separated by a window) we had wonderful service. A few of us shared bottles of wine and our server refilled our glasses each time she checked on us. We shared the Calamari and the Spinach Artichoke Dip to start.I had the Red Snapper entree from the seasonal menu. Delicious.This is a nice place for special occasions since it is pricy, but I highly recommend.

My husband and I always enjoy this restaurant. It's pricey so we only come for special occasions, but we truly enjoy the food and every staff member who has served us has always been so friendly. We always look forward to dinner here!

1922 is a one star buffet with five star prices. Let me explain.My wife and I went to 1922 on a Saturday after Valentine's Day. We started with cocktails. Both of our glass had a sticky substances that kept getting stuck to our hands and the napkins they were placed on. The drinks themselves were good, no big deal move on. The server brough out some toasted garlic bread to start the night. It was toasted, but wasn't warm at all. It was fine.For an appetizer we decided to try the jerk chicken eggrolls. This might have been the most repulsive thing we have ever eaten. The chicken and vegetable filling had been cooked for so long that it was beginning to turn into a weird paste. If you've ever eaten fried liver it almost had that type of texture, but it wasn't liver...We both went with steaks and had their fingerling potatoes and Mac & Cheese for sides. Based on our experience so far we both ordered medium steaks figuring they wouldn't get it right, we were correct. Both came out medium-rare which was how we like it. The steaks were fine, but needed some seasoning. The potatoes were overcooked, dry, and devoid of any seasoning. The Mac & Cheese was cold, what little cheese sauce there was wasn't creamy, and for some reason there was un-melted yellow shredded cheddar cheese on top even though the description said it was "white cheddar". Coincidently, the couple sitting next to us sent back their food because they were also served cold food.The food was served so quickly that my only guess is that everything at 1922 that can be prepared in advance is cooked and placed in a buffet style warmer in the back and left to die. If you've ever eaten at buffet or a pot luck and you see all the food sitting in the warmer looking completely dehydrated. Yeah... that basically sums up our experience with 1922.We ended up spending $200 ($165 bill + $35 tip). This place wants so badly to be a up-scale restaurant with their menu selections and descriptions, but in reality it's just an overpriced lazy buffet serving cold, dead, unseasoned food.

This little gem in downtown Newark is so nice to visit without the drive to Columbus, great food, great drinks and good staff. The service this time was a little subpar but hey, it was a Tuesday. We had 8 total for a neighborhood holiday dinner. The "new" bartender was so friendly and really made the pre dinner cocktail fun. She said she Hd just started and hopefully she keeps that enthusiasm. The ambiance is warm, holiday themed with a nice car area and dinning room. The food was fantastic and our server seemed a little timid and unsure, he was nice but we had to kind of lead him to the next step. Overall we had a fantastic meal, laughs and fun while enjoying a great meal w/ friends

Had a Sunday evening dinner and the dining room was warm and quiet. Our server was very attentive, but still gave us space to visit and order in shifts. The wine list has a wide variety of selections as well as the specialty drink menu. Everyone in our group of four ordered a different drink and all were pleased with the results. I got the Cabernet by the glass and it was a nice pour. On Sunday they offer a prime rib special in addition to the nightly chefs special. I ordered the prime rib, which was cooked perfectly to order and was accompanied by an ample portion of asparagus along with horseradish sauce. I definitely would recommend getting the prime rib special. We all got a different dish from trout and snapper to a burger. Great experience.

I've tried 2 times to eat here and both times I am disappointed. I think they are understaffed because the service was terrible. We ate outside the last time we went & felt forgotten. Servers came by, but never came back. We flagged someone down later & ordered but was rushed since we were trying to see a show at the Midland. We ate fast then waited for our check... and waited. Food was acceptable but not rememberable. I won't be back.

Wonderful dinner on a Friday night visiting the area. Seasonal menu was very good. Also enjoyed the wine special.

A nice place. Very friendly service staff. Our waitress was awesome. The food and drinks are good but very pricey for what they are. My meal was 75 dollars. For steak and potatoes. I don't mind paying these prices for a great steak. This steak could have been prices at Texas roadhouse house price. It was about the same quality.

Our first time here by happen stance. This place is a diamond in the rough. Started with the calamari which was lightly breaded and cooked perfectly. Entrees were Gumbo which had a generous portion or andouille and was fantastic. King Crab special was equally delicious, portion was a little small for the price, but was very tasty. Casey the bartender was very attentive and informative. Finished with the Choux Pastry which is OMG delicious. Super impressed with 1922 On The Square! Well done!!!
