About this Neighborhood

Arlington is a compact Newark district whose food punches well above its size — fourteen restaurants averaging a remarkable 4.9, with a café rated 4.6. Real Madrid Restaurant, Poppy Seed Bagel & Catering, and Umi Hotpot Seafood & Sushi Buffet headline a scene that ranges from Spanish to bagels to hotpot. Foursquare's tastes ground it in real neighborhood life — churches, a hardware store, delis, and a department store sit alongside a Spanish restaurant and housing developments. With six groceries and five parks close by, it's a workaday, community-anchored corner with an unexpectedly strong table.
