Matthew's 1131 Bloomfield Ave, Clifton Italian • $$

“Matthew 's Restaurant is 1 of the best restaurants in North NJ if NOT The Best. The food is always Delicious & Service is excellent. Beyond that, the atmosphere or aviance is excellent. The vibe & energy is first rate positive fun & culinary enjoyment. I believe that this fine dining experience is also driven by the owner Matthew who is usually in the restaurant greeting guests & helping out. When you visit Matthew's you'll have a great time and it'll feel like you're on mini-vacation from the stress of every day life while seemingly enjoying the warmth of family. It may be a cliche but it's definitely true. 10 stars ⭐ out of 10.”

Dante's Restaurant 955 Valley Rd, Clifton Italian • $$

“Dante’s has truly transformed the old Alexis Steakhouse space with a modern, refreshing facelift and a fantastic menu to match. It’s the perfect spot for happy hour, a night out with family or friends, or even a business lunch. One of the standout features is their exclusive upstairs party room, which accommodates 75+ guests—ideal for baby showers, bridal showers, or business meetings. The space includes a flat-screen TV for presentations or party highlights, plus its own private bathroom and bar. Convenience is another plus: Dante’s offers plenty of parking and is located near all major highways (Rt. 46, Rt. 3, Parkway, Turnpike, and Rt. 80). The cozy bar area is great for catching a game, and their intimate lounge space comfortably seats up to 10 people with private wait service—perfect for small gatherings. I’ve enjoyed Dante’s for everything from meeting friends and business lunches to happy hours and private lounge get-togethers. The food never disappoints: the prime burger is massive and made with quality prime rib, the tuna tartare is fresh and loaded with avocado, and their homemade chips are addictive. The clams casino are packed with flavor, the steak sandwich features premium cuts, and the pear salad with grilled chicken is a delicious option if you’re looking for something lighter. Check it out—you won’t be disappointed!”

White Castle 1341 Main Ave, Clifton Fast Food • $

“I've patronized this White Castle since I was a child and visited with my grandmother back in the 70s. I love this place for nostalgic reasons and memories. I always enjoyed the availability of mini boxed cheeseburgers. I love this place! The menu selections have expanded significantly over time. While the prices have increased, like everything else, the burgers are fresh every time. The service is friendly and efficient. They even offer suggestions to maximize your savings. While I do not live there, I always stop by on my return to Maryland. Lastly, I rated it a 4 star for atmosphere due to the cold overhead indoor chillers. Finally, they offer a restroom, which is always welcoming.”

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!”

Smashburger 700 NJ-3, Clifton Hamburger • $

“Great burgers (as expected), but come here when they have the Colorado burger. One of the best burgers I've ever had. It was so good that I had to have a 2nd one immediately after finishing my 1st.
Just get the regular fries too. The cheese fries are pretty OK because the cheese sauce is not great. Also, the shakes are good but pretty expensive.”

Habit Burger & Grill 388 NJ-3, Clifton Hamburger • $

“I am very disappointed considering this is a new location. I have been going to Habit in Wayne NJ & they are amazing. I came to Clifton since it was closer & the burger wasnt burgering. Idek know what to say anymore LOL fries were just bland. Ya can tell I was bummed out. 2 meals for $26 for nothing. I dont understand why customers need to purchase a sauce or add cheese on a burger & the bills already twice as more than it already insanely is. Wayne location never fails. Clifton is Overpriced & does not satisfy.”

Like many out there, we’ve been feeling the stress of life in isolation, and having a delicious fresh made meal from one of our favorite restaurants was the little slice of normalcy that we desperately needed. Not only did it lift the spirits of everyone in this house, but we have enough leftovers for several more meals. Thank you Ameti’s for serving our area through all of this madness!

Just Salad 225 Allwood Rd Suite #4B, Clifton Health Food • $

“I don't like injustice. Today I was at Just Salad in Clifton as usual; the staff are very friendly. While I was waiting to be served, I saw a customer mistreating the staff serving her for no reason, and I think it's disrespectful to take pictures of employees who weren't mistreating her. I was there today, Sunday, at approximately 5:30 pm.
The girl serving her is always there working very hard and always trying to help me.”

Paris Baguette 345 Allwood Rd, Clifton Bakery • $

“I’ve been here 4 times and this week I tried the coconut cream croissant which is so good and not glazed! Usually I find that bakery items here are too sweet due to them being glazed additionally from sweetened flavors like chocolate or strawberries and cream (I get coffee here) but this is just a flaky croissant with perfect sweetness coconut cream filling and toasted coconut flakes on top.”

Starbucks Coffee Company 10 Metro Blvd, Clifton Coffee Shops • $

“If you’re a Starbucks lover and haven’t tried the Iced Double Berry Matcha, you are seriously missing out! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This drink is an absolute game changer. The smooth, earthy matcha blends perfectly with the sweet burst of mixed berries, creating the most refreshing and vibrant flavor combo. It’s lightly sweet, super refreshing, and gives you that clean, steady energy boost without the crash.

What I love most is how balanced it is — not overly sugary, not too grassy — just the perfect harmony of creamy matcha and juicy berry goodness. It’s the kind of drink that instantly feels like a treat but still keeps you feeling good about your choice.

It’s refreshing, unique, and honestly one of the best iced drinks on the menu. If you’re a matcha fan or just looking to switch up your usual order, trust me — this one’s a must-try. You’ll be hooked after the first sip! 💚🍓”
