“Well worth the visit! We decided to go for Mediterranean last night and a great option was Harmony in Franklin Lakes. Really lovely, spacious, pretty restaurant. The owner is always there to greet everyone and to make sure everything is to your liking. This time we tried the zucchini pancakes and they we delicious! Light, tender and flavorful, with a great sauce! We shared as we can get full easily. For the main course I have the Dorado and I have to say, impeccably prepared. Full of amazing flavors and really moist even though I decided to have it filleted. Next time I will have it whole as I enjoy my fish that way, but truly outstanding either way. My partner has lamb gyro and it did not disappoint. Lots of great flavor and a great deal to enjoy. We finished with Turkish coffee and tea and a flan-like dessert with cinnamon on top. Soooo good! Wait staff were great and the chef came out to see how we enjoyed the meal. Just a lot of attention to your comfort and enjoyment. Highly recommend for quality AND pricing. FYI, it's BYOB.“

“We had a wonderful experience at Hayati Lounge, and a big part of that was thanks to Sami. From the moment we arrived, he was welcoming, friendly, and incredibly attentive. He made sure everything was perfect, checked on us throughout our meal, and provided excellent recommendations. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and Sami's outstanding customer service made our visit even more enjoyable. It's rare to find someone who genuinely cares about making guests feel valued, and Sami definitely does. We will definitely be coming back!“

We've eaten here multiple times and have not been disappointed. 100% recommended you check it out, I've heard they also have a great lunch special menu, I'll be trying that soon.“

“Shlomo's kindness and generosity is endless! Not only has he offered to participate in a PTO sponsored dine to donate today, but when our school staff ordered lunch to support, he refused payment and insisted the payment be donated to the PTO in full! He gets plenty of love and all is deserved! Thank you Shlomo and Gyro Grill for not only delicious food but for your continued acts of love in the Wayne community!“

“My wife and I recently celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary at From Scratch, coinciding with the restaurant’s 10th anniversary, and it was an unforgettable evening that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space, the staff made us feel like honored guests, with a special nod to the milestone celebrations—both ours and theirs. The atmosphere buzzed with a joyful energy, perfectly balancing sophistication and comfort, as if the restaurant itself was toasting a decade of culinary excellence. The four-course tasting menu was a masterclass in flavor and creativity, each dish showcasing the kitchen’s dedication to crafting everything from scratch. I began with the beef tartare, a delicate yet bold starter. It set the tone for what was to come: precision and passion in every bite. My wife got the eggplant caponata for her first course, a vibrant dish that was both rustic and refined. It was a testament to how From Scratch elevates humble ingredients into something extraordinary. The handmade raviolis were an absolute highlight, each delicate parcel bursting with a silky ricotta filling. The pasta was so tender it practically melted, a labor of love that spoke to the restaurant’s name and ethos. We couldn’t stop raving about the texture—perfectly al dente, yet impossibly light. The mint added a hint of freshness to the dish, that I was originally hesitant about, but I’m happy I gave it a go! For the main courses, my wife got the lamb. Perfectly cooked to a rosy pink, it was fall-apart tender, and had a perfect crust on the outside. The dish was hearty yet elegant. Equally stunning were the scallops, seared to golden perfection with a buttery, caramelized crust. They sat around a small bed of caviar with purple mashed potatoes. Each bite was a harmonious balance of sea and earth. The meal concluded with a ricotta dessert that was nothing short of divine. The creamy, cloud-like ricotta mousse was paired with a coulis with ginger dough crumbs. It was the perfect sweet note to end the evening, light yet indulgent, with flavors that lingered long after the last spoonful. From Scratch isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of craft, community, and unforgettable moments. For our anniversary, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to mark the occasion, and we’re already looking forward to returning to see what the next decade brings for this culinary gem. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a dining experience that’s as heartfelt as it is delicious!“
