"United Airlines has Classified — its invitation-only restaurant at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey." - Micheline Maynard

Airport Dining Options Have Gotten so Much Better — Here's Why
View Postcard for Classified
@cntraveler

"While each of United’s lounge spaces has its charm, my MileagePlus gold status only gets me access on international flights. So my new favorite hack is to just plug my membership number into the reservations for United’s speakeasy restaurant (yes, there's a secret restaurant in Terminal C—read about it here) and see if I can snag a spot at Classified, run by OTG. (It’s easier than you think!) While you will still have to pay for your meal, I’ve visited three times and it always comes out less than a one-time United Club pass at $59. Plus, I can pay with miles. With only 32 seats and two private restrooms, it arguably offers more peace and quiet than any lounge at Newark every will."

United Has 4 Lounges at Newark Airport—Which One Is the Best?

"Classified is located behind a secret door in Saison, and is invite-only for certain United customers. Once you’re inside, it’s free from the standard airport noises of suburban moms seemingly FaceTiming every person they know and children watching Bluey on full blast. There are even private bathrooms. Highlights from the menu include tableside cocktails like a very fancy (and $44) Manhattan made with 12-year rye and a plate of bluefin tuna crudo that’s paired with avocado and ponzu. You might even sit next to Angelina Jolie and watch her dive into a half-dozen oysters. " - Anne Cruz

We decided to give it a try after a couple of invites to see what the hype was about. A bit gimmicky. You walk through the Saison restaurant right next to gate 120 and enter through the blue door at the back. For an "upscale dining space" as United describes it, I shouldn't have to place my order via a QR code with barely there wait staff. Vegetarian options are very limited, prices are high and the food is just okay. I paid $60 (including tip) for a liter of Pellegrino water, truffle Mac and cheese, and cauliflower steak. I would have been much happier ordering from the common folk places for cheaper or even eating for free at the United lounge. Another thing is there were no outlets to charge phones etc. I won't be returning.

Was excited to receive an invitation to dine at Classified. The overall experience was average. Servers are very attentive. The food is good but nothing outstanding. Prices are within range. The ambiance is great! The bluefin tuna was good. The beef dip was tasty; however, the tiny bowl of Au Jus was awkward to actually dip the sandwich. The crab cake was excellent; no fillers, fresh and perfectly seasoned. I won't say it's worth a second visit, but it's worth dining once for the experience. Additionally, I was somewhat perturbed, having to finalize my order with gratuity on the app before actually receiving any drinks or food. Hence, I don't know what level of service or quality of food I will receive, but I've already provided my gratuity.

Invitation only restaurant inside Saison near gate 120. Only seats about 30. Very nice, quiet, clean atmosphere. Order via QR code when you sit down. Didn’t like being asked for tip before any service done. Ordered French dip, chicken sandwich and sparkling water ($65 after 15% tip). French dip was good but not enough au jus. Chicken sandwich was dry. Order took over 30 minutes from time of order to arrival. The server wasn’t present most of the time so had to grab her when she was in room such as to ask for more au jus. Don’t think I’ll go back.

A great place to dine at Newark Airport if you have at least 90 minutes. The food is good, the service congenial and hospitable. We had breakfast before our flight and were very pleased with our bagel lox platter, the mimosas and Cappucino. You order via phone and the hosts come around every once in a while. However the wait staff is not there for you for incidentals. There is no one in the dining room that you can flag for any questions or concerns. Highly recommend getting a reservation.

I've been wanting to try this place but then the pandemic happened and I'm finally returning with a decent layover so pulled the trigger on a reservation. The best part is you are whisked away into a calm and private seating area. Feels sort of like dining in the Polaris restaurant but the food isn't as high quality but still pretty good. We came for breakfast so the menu items are somewhat limited. You currently have to order via the mobile QR code which makes it easy to customize your order. The egg dishes are quite large (3 eggs), choice of meat and potatoes (or fruit substitute) and toast. The coffee or tea come in a separate small teapot which is nice so you can refill yourself. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Window views of gates and departing flights. I would come back if I had a lengthy layover and no access to a United lounge

An awesome oasis from the buzz of Terminal C, it's seriously crazy you basically forget you're at an airport. And the service is impeccable, toyed always looked after by the staff, checking up on everything. Our server (Biata, I believe) was phenomenal! As for the food, there are some exclusives only available at Classified. But I found a lot of the menu is just the Saison menu since it's a shared kitchen and you order just the same (scan the QR). The food was pretty good either way, but definitely recommend the French Dip. It's fantastic for airport food. It's totally worth the the experience if you have the time!

A nice private spot created by united behind the Saison restaurant near gate C120. The menu is the same as Saison, as are the prices, which are not inexpensive. It’s nice to have a small private restaurant and the room is very nice. There are also private bathrooms adjacent to the room. The food is good and the service is also fine, although it doesn’t seem like there is staff dedicated to Classified, perhaps because it’s relatively new and not at all crowded. There were also tables that had not been cleaned and there was food left there from customers. Not great. Overall a nice escape but could be better.

It's a fun place to say you've been to but don't come expecting 5* dining. The dining area is quiet besides the hum of a plane. When I arrived there were a total of 4 other travelers. Much nicer chairs and seating than what you'd get at any other restaurant at Newark. The food on the other hand was no better than anywhere else. Eggs ordered over medium were served over hard. Steak was very tough. Potatoes were cold. The service is great when you actually have a server come to your table. Don't expect them to come check in on you unless you order something and they come out to drop it off.
