Venus Jewelers | Finest Jewelry and Diamonds

My boyfriend and I went there on a Saturday (currently during the Covid-19 pandemic) to pick out an engagement ring. We were warmly greeted by a masked Johnny, who soon sat us down and became our jeweler for the day. I’m leaving this review because, although I already heard from others that Venus Jewelers was an exceptional and reputable business, I was able to experience it first hand. Johnny and the rest of the staff were graciously helpful and catered to all our needs. Most importantly, they are extremely knowledgeable about their work. We were steered in the right direction, without feeling like we were just a customer...but more of a friend. We were able to find our right ring, even while wearing a mask and constantly taking the necessary safety precautions. Amazing experience. They truly care!

Went in for a few links taken out of a new watch. Jason was extremely helpful and personable. While I waited I had a chance to look around and they have a huge selection of beautiful pieces. After my watch was finished I had a very nice conversation with Jason about stones. He showed me some of the custom work they have done, which turned out to be some amazing work. Overall I had a great experience there and recommend to anyone looking for a gift for themselves or a loved one or maybe you have something you want to have reworked, Venus Jewelers is the best choice in probably all of central New Jersey.

My family has been coming to Venus for 30 years. This was my first time coming on my own and I had a wonderful experience. I came in to pick out an engagement ring and Johnny was wonderful in making that happen. Very knowledgeable and polite. I see why my parents never went anywhere else. I will be using Venus for every jewelry need!

I've had the most excellent customer service at Venus. Everyone was very friendly, from the moment of walking in and being greeted by Jason to the Help and knowledge provided by Jonny & Igor . They are all so knowledgeable , and very honest. They're not there to make a one time sale, they are truly there to ensure you become a lifetime Client. The excellent business integrity they have shown and provided, makes me recommend them to every person I know.

I had a very positive experience with Venus Jewelers. The staff was very friendly, professional and customer centric. I was there for a repair which was done on the spot without an appointment but I also browsed the display case which showcased a lot of very nice pieces. They didn't try to push purchase of any merchandise so i was able to browse without pressure. I recommend them and will return when I need a repair or if i want to purchase jewelery in future.

I went in to see about getting my grandmother's diamond put into a setting. I wanted something that didn't look like an "engagement" ring. Igor was very patient and took the time to help me pick out my ring. Great experience!

I had an unbelievably great customer experience with Jason and the team at Venus Jewelers! Jason provided me with superb customer service and hospitality, making every aspect of the buying experience an absolutely positive one! When you first walk into the store, you are greeted as if you are family!I purchased several watches from Venus and love every one of them! Not only is Jason extremely knowledgeable about Rolex’s and watches in general, but he also has a very wide breadth of knowledge regarding diamonds and gemstones. Absolutely no questions you have go unanswered!Jason and the team at Venus are no doubt your one-stop-shop for all jewelry needs! Based on such a great experience, they have gained another customer for life! Thank you brother, keep killing the game!

Went to Venus Jewelers this morning to have a new watch adjusted. I did not buy the watch there, but they were extremely accommodating and took time to ensure the watch fit properly, and also were kind enough to show me how to adjust time and date, and ensure it was properly wound. In total, it took about 30 minutes from start to finish, and the amount they charged me for services rendered was extraordinarily reasonable. Would not hesitate to recommend them!

Venus in my opinion is the best. My wife and I got her engagement ring and wedding rings from Venus 10 years ago and continue to use them as our jewelers. Igor and Peter make you feel like you are part of the family. I highly recommend them. Their jewelry knowledge and persona sets the apart. I will continue to use them for my jewelry needs and wants.

Johnny and the staff provided me with A+ service. I do not wear jewelry and have never purchased any before, so when my fiancé sent me to the store alone I felt a bit intimidated. Johnny really put me at ease from the moment I walked up to the counter with his phenomenal customer service. I highly recommend Venus Jewelers.

Jason was extremely personable and very helpful pertaining to exactly what we needed. The selection was impressive the descriptions were as well. The concerns we may have had quickly dissolved after Jason was able to confidently reassure us of being able to accomplish everything we had our minds set on. Would recommend to anyone looking for fine jewelry/ wedding rings, beginners to experienced.

I purchased an engagement ring a few months ago, and it was an amazing experience. On day 1 Jason was able to identify the best type of diamond and setting for us, and within a week it was in my hands to propose with! She loved it, and said yes :). Any adjustments that I wanted made were easily taken care of and Jason was there to answer all of my questions. Would definitely recommend to my friends!!

Venus has become our home for all jewelry needs since our engagement in 2018. How sweet it is to be remembered by name when you walk in. When you purchase jewelry from Venus, you know you’re being taken care of, and we wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Venus Jewelers is not only a beautiful store with helpful and knowledgeable staff, but they support the community and several local non-profit groups in their fundraising efforts. Their generosity includes repairing a watch recently that i had purchased from them over 15 years ago free of charge. They stand by their products. It is more important now than ever to support this local business - you'll be glad you did!

I came to get my grandmother’s jewelry checked out after she passed. Jason has excellent customer service. He was super kind, explained every little detail to me, and cleaned everything. Everything looks sparkling new. I also came right when they were closing. I didn’t feel rushed, I felt super welcomed as if it were the middle of the day. They treat their customers here phenomenally. Excellent experience. I will be back here again.

Venus Jewelers is a gem in Somerset. They have a wonderful selection of jewelry in all different styles for all occasions. I have shopped there for years and always find the staff very helpful and courteous. Most recently Igor helped me find exactly what I had in mind. I know my wife will love it! I know I will be back at Venus Jewelers.

There’s a reason why Venus Jewelers has that best in Somerset County rating from the Courier News. If you’re looking for quality and customer service, look no further; the Venus Jewelers team is the best in the business! My entire family has been benefiting from the talent and expertise of the staff at Venus Jewelers for years.They can design anything you can think up or imaging and again, the customer service is excellent.

Johnny and others of the staff were so welcoming. Johnny listened to everything we wanted and made engagement ring shopping a relaxed and worry free experience. Very professional and informative. They really take care of you here and the jewelry is gorgeous. Johnny is the gentleman to speak to if you are looking for an engagement ring. He is no longer a stranger and now someone who has helped in one of the biggest moments of our life. Great place and great people!

I recently visited Venus jeweler's, because I acquired a bit of jewelry after my grandma passed on and needed help figuring out what I had. I wasn't sure what I had and was nervous it was a waste of their time. NEVER, they said. For what normally would be a very emotionally and trying time, Shannon made it very comfortable for me and was very knowledgeable in her industry. She took her time and looked at every piece I brought in. That alone was a big task and then explained her findings with great detail. I not only left feeling like family, I left learning something. The time and dedication Shannon gave me was unmeasurable and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Shannon cared for my jewelry like it was her own this made the process that more pleasurable and easier to trust. I definitely got the best price for the jewelry and glad I went to them for this process. Thank you Shannon and Venus for taking such great care of me.Naomi Rose

Entered Venus Jewelry where I’m always greeted by a nearby staff member who kindly asked how they could help me. I needed a watch band adjusted which turned out to be Johnny’s specialty. Store staff never fails in making a customer feel right at home. No pressure they are there to help you as needed.Johnny took to the time to explain proper watch maintenance and I’d forgot some of what I knew. A real pro making that extra effort to both educate and initiate what will be a lasting relationship. A good guy with cheerful conversation. I left with a properly sized band, knowing Johnny and the entire Venus family are there for me. I love the store and have now add Johnny as my go to professional on watches!

It was a pleasure to work with Donna to pick out a new setting for my diamond on our 35th Wedding Anniversary! I wasn't quite sure what I wanted and throughout the process she was VERY patient and knowledgeable as I tried on many different styles. The options are endless. We worked within our budget and ended up with a gorgeous ring! I am not a frequent visitor to jewelry stores but felt comfortable as soon as we walked through the door. No pressure...just a totally enjoyable experience! No need to go anywhere else.

Venus Jewelers has by far the best customer service of any jewelry store I’ve done business with. I moved to Somerset at the end of 2017 and stopped in to replace some batteries on a few of my watches.They are now the only jewelry store I do business with. We purchased our wedding bands from them in 2019 and they continue to maintain them beautifully.Johnny Hillebrandt provides us with exceptional service and does it with his beautiful smile.Sometimes I’ll just stop in just to say hello. They are a family oriented store and I love that about them. They make you feel like family!!!Jayne

I went to Venus Jewelers because I was looking for a local place to get a ring appraised without having to send it out. When I arrived for my appointment, I was cheerfully greeted and waited for the owner to meet me for the appraisal. Shannon met with me as we waited and also after the completion of the appraisal. Unfortunately, the owner lost his voice! The whole process was done courteously and professionally. I was surprised to learn about the other services they provide there, as well. I also was able to observe their interaction with other customers for the hour I was there and was impressed with the warmth and again professionalism shown. Overall, great experience and highly recommend!

Venus Jewelers is the hands-down best place to go to for any and all of your jewelry needs. I had the pleasure of working with Jason (highly recommend) in purchasing an engagement ring. Even before trying to make a sale, he put such an emphasis on educating me on diamonds and rings and on making a personal relationship. They will work with you throughout the whole process to make sure you get exactly what you're looking for and in the price range where you're looking. Jason and Venus will surely be my jeweler of choice for a long time.

Choosing Venus Jewelers for my jewelry needs was one of the smartest decisions I have ever made.I had wanted a solid chain for my birthday but wasn’t exactly sure of the style, size, finish, etc that I wanted. With some professional help I was able to find exactly what I was looking for!As soon as I walked in several employees welcomed me and made me feel like I was valued. I had met with Jason who helped walked me though my options based on my budget. After some discussion Jason and I were able to narrow everything down and I was able to make an informed decision about my chain. Jason was very knowledgeable and made sure I was aware of all the intricacies of each option we were discussing.There were some specification I wanted with my chain that weren’t typical practice, but Jason made sure I was leaving with EXACTLY what I wanted. The employees of Venus Jewelers really went the extra mile to ensure they were providing the utmost service and quality that anyone would want to see from their jeweler.After my experience I would absolutely recommend to a friend or stranger. I would rate my experience 10/10 and will absolutely be returning next time I have a jewelry need. THANK YOU VENUS JEWELERS!

I had been looking for the perfect ring to propose to my girlfriend for several months until I came across Venus Jewelers. Jason started by teaching me all I needed to know about diamonds and how to make an informed purchase decision. He answered every question I had and helped me pick and customize the perfect ring setting and diamond. The team at Venus Jewelers went above and beyond all of my expectations, and they were able to get it done within a week.Jason keeps in touch regularly and shows he really cares about his customers, always treating us as family. Don’t let his youth fool you; he is very knowledgeable and professional.

Venus Jewelers is a wonderful establishment. The staff are friendly, welcoming and professional. They all clearly know their business and know what they were doing. I had 3 rings that needed to be cleaned and one had a missing diamond. The repairs were completed quickly and my rings look brand new. I couldn’t be happier. They truly exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended them for all your jewelry needs!

My experience at Venus Jewelers was nothing short of amazing. Jason was able to get the exact watch I wanted so quickly and at an awesome price. Truly, it was the best watch buying experience I have ever had. While I was in the store I also decided to do some Christmas shopping and everyone in the store was super helpful and genuine. I will 100% be returning and would recommend to all my friends and family.

We came in to look for something special and left with so much more! I not only got earrings that are beautiful and simple but got educated about it at the same time. My husband even spotted the matching ring to the earrings that maybe I can get for Valentine's day! Shannon was very exciting to talk too, made us feel comfortable, and cleaned all my rings that I currently wear as a courtesy. Thank you for letting us see and hear the information you shared with us. I will recommend this jewelry store to everyone I know!

Excellent !!I bought a pair of beautiful diamond earrings from Venus jewellers last week. Shannon assisted me to find the perfect one for me. She listened to my requirements very carefully and showed me all options available at store. She is very friendly and helped me immensely by asking questions so that I can come up with best 3-4 options out of the available lot. She has so much knowledge about diamonds and always gives honest and logical view. No one at the store rushed me even though the store was closing. I highly recommend to buy from this store, and contact Shannon to assist you.

A friend recommended that I go to Venus jewelers in order to find myself the perfect engagement ring because, as she stated, they offer incredible quality and have an extremely knowledgeable staff. Thankfully, I can honestly say that I had a wonderful experience! I am especially grateful to Johnny! Not only does he have a wealth of knowledge due to being in the industry for many years, but he also understands aesthetic design and what suits one best. I was also concerned about finding the perfect ring to compliment a family heirloom wedding band and he was incredibly helpful with this! I could not have asked for a better experience! I am truly grateful to him once again! I will definitely be back!

Johnny help me with my broken diamond stud earring back. He went to the back of the store to talk with the gemologist. I was so happy my late husband purchase them for me. I will have them in 10 days. Johnny's customer service was terrific. I Love coming to this store. They are attentive to everyone who enters their jewelry store. The price was reasonable.

I had a great experience! The staff at Venus Jewelers is very friendly and ready to help. I went for a ring appraisal and to look at wedding bands. Shannon was very helpful and patient, explaining each type of ring and the versatility they offer. The appraisal was thorough and done with care. Peter was super helpful and explained the process and what to expect. It is clear that he is very experienced in the field. It was done in a timely manner and I feel confident that I made the right choice by going to Venus Jewelers.

My father in law passed away and we went here looking for a gift for my mother in law’s birthday. We wanted to give my mother in law a necklace with his memory.. with the help of the wonderful Shannon, we picked a locket and necklace to put a picture in. She showed us so many options and let us take our time picking the perfect one. She also was very knowledgeable about every piece and wanted us to know as well. We had a picture taken 42 years ago of my in-laws but it was in pretty bad shape. Not only did they fix and edit the picture, they also engraved the date of marriage on the locket. Shannon kept me up to date with everything and made me feel so comfortable with our purchase. I would love to give Kate a special thank you as well as she was the one who restored the old photo. I was updated with pictures of the locket and it’s process but nothing prepared me for when I saw the finished product. It was 100 times better then I expected. It’s simply beautiful. Thank you so much Shannon and Kate! Greatly appreciated!
