Some more recommendations out of me:
Rutherford: Eros cafe is open until 3:00a some nights and is less than a block walk from the station. Slightly overpriced (not for food, but for like side-items and soup perhaps), but the food is good and you can sit in there for hours.
Risotto House is a new one (well, relatively new) on Park Ave, about 2 blocks up. Pretty good food, very attentive owner (interesting to watch him go collect people from outside) who is very eager to please.
Spring Grill on Glen Ave (just off Park Ave, by the Williams Center -- about a 1 block walk from the station). This place serves Thai food which is phenomenal. The interior of the place looks a lot nicer than its reasonable prices would indicate also. I /will/ be going back here.
Ramsey: Pizzette, which is on the western side of the tracks, in the strip mall up the street (past the Trackside). There is a liquor store in the plaza with which to furnish a BYOB operation. The food is abolutely wonderful... I can't say enough about it. Fairly cheap, too, as they go. I only found out about this place a few weeks ago and have already been twice.
New Brunswick: Stuff Yer Face.
http://www.stuffyerface.com. Good stuff! A wider variety of beers than you'd expect (some stuff you've never heard of), samplers of 5 for $15, great boli's... just one of my favorite "haunts."
Atillio's Pasta Kitchen is a nice cheap place (I believe their pasta entrees are $3.95), and I love their marinara sauce (available in containers as well). They had been take out/cash only, but they now take charge and I believe may deliver. This one is on Spring Street, back off Albany from the McDonald's.
Marita's Cantina, in Ferren Plaza across from the train station, has very good tortilla soup, as well as a number of other things... typical mexican fare, but pretty good, and the bar is very alive some nights (wait to get in, live music, etc.)
...I'm big into eating, what can I say?
