“I had the pleasure of being a wedding photographer at this venue a few weeks ago, and it was truly incredible. The venue features a rustic, organic field enhanced with modern touches that are simply stunning. The event hall is fantastic, and the natural sunlight pouring in is a great advantage for any occasion! I really appreciated the natural colors and how they complemented the country decor. I also got to sample some food, and the cornbread was phenomenal, while the cream and cookies left me wanting more. I highly recommend booking this place—10/10!”

I had the happy vegan burger which was huge with three patties made from kofka, lettuce tomatoes and a large serving of fries. We were given mayonnaise and ketchup to dip the fries in. Baklava for dessert. I highly recommend this charming restaurant. Easy street parking.”

“I NEVER do reviews lol I don’t think average people ever do in my opinion which is why I never really trust reviews and wasn’t gonna eat here last night when my homie tried to convince me because they had decent reviews lol BUT LET ME TELL YOU! I’m so happy I took the chance with them, the food was fire affff! & the chef cooking it look like he know what he doing & when I asked for my shrimp well done it came out cooked perfect not too raw & not overcooked. Rice was fire steak cooked perfect & chicken was amazing too . On top of that the food prices are unbeatable. If this spot ever got a huge marketing sponsor , they would put Benihana & all other Asian restaurants out of business. I like eating at el puerto in Harlem New York a lot but after coming here I might start coming here instead of driving all the way to NY and save the puertos for when I’m in the city lol

Starbucks 160 Kingsland Rd, Clifton Coffee Shops • $

“Went to Clifton’s 2nd Starbucks on Route 3. It looks so close when driving by, but once you get off the highway it takes you around a bit to get into the parking lot. Parking lot is spacious and I like the fact that the drive through has two lanes, but it does eventually merge into one. The inside has plenty of seats and tables, plus there is a nice outside patio. My refreshers were on the weak side and tasted more like water. Leaving the Starbucks parking lot was even more convoluted than entering it. I’ll enjoy this Starbucks now, because when they finish ON3, I have a feeling it is going to be worse than the Costco parking lot in Clifton.”

Beirut Restaurant 1543 Main Ave, Clifton Lebanese • $$

“Located in the vibrant heart of Clifton, NJ, Beirut Restaurant offers an authentic Middle Eastern dining experience that captures the essence of Lebanese cuisine. On a recent visit to celebrate a special occasion, I found myself enchanted by the restaurant’s warm ambiance and tantalizing aromas wafting from the open kitchen, where fresh dishes are prepared right off the grill.

**Atmosphere and Ambiance:**

The restaurant's interior is charmingly decorated with traditional Lebanese decor—think intricate lanterns, rich tapestries, and warm, earthy tones. The cozy, welcoming atmosphere is perfect for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. On our visit, the traditional music playing in the background added a delightful touch, enhancing the overall experience.

**Service and Hospitality:**

While our evening was mostly delightful, we did encounter a slight hiccup with our waitress, who seemed a bit overwhelmed and inattentive at times. However, this minor issue was quickly overshadowed by the exceptional hospitality of the owner. Upon noticing our concerns, he personally came over to apologize and ensure that we were well taken care of. His genuine care and attention not only rectified the situation but also elevated our experience.

**The Food: Fresh Off the Grill**

The highlight of our visit was, undoubtedly, the food. We opted for the mixed grill platter, a hearty selection of chicken, beef, and lamb skewers, all grilled to perfection. Each piece of meat was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor, clearly marinated in a blend of traditional Lebanese spices. The smoky aroma and taste were reminiscent of a true Middle Eastern grill, with each bite transporting us to the bustling streets of Beirut.

The platter was accompanied by a variety of sides, including fluffy, fragrant basmati rice, freshly baked pita bread, and a colorful array of grilled vegetables that added a delightful crunch. The house-made garlic sauce, creamy hummus, and tangy tabbouleh served as perfect complements, enhancing each bite with their vibrant flavors and freshness.

**A Pleasant Surprise:**

The owner’s attentiveness did not stop at addressing our service issue. Knowing it was my birthday, he went above and beyond by surprising us with a complimentary dessert—a beautiful presentation of all different kind of desserts. The flaky, honey-soaked pastry was the perfect end to a wonderful meal, sweet, nutty, and utterly delicious. This thoughtful gesture truly made the evening memorable and highlighted the genuine hospitality that Beirut Restaurant embodies.

**Overall Experience and Value:**

Despite the minor service hiccup, our overall experience at Beirut Restaurant was delightful. The quality of the food, combined with the warm, welcoming atmosphere and exceptional hospitality, made for a fantastic evening. The mixed grill platter, in particular, was a standout, offering a true taste of Lebanese cuisine that felt both authentic and satisfying. For those looking for a genuine Middle Eastern dining experience in Clifton, NJ, Beirut Restaurant is well worth a visit. I look forward to returning and exploring more of their menu.

**Rating:** 9/10

Beirut Restaurant combines delicious, authentic Lebanese flavors with a warm atmosphere and excellent hospitality, making it a great choice for any special occasion or a casual night out.”

Moves around the bar gracefully and efficiently like it's her own home. Tonight I met Tori, who is knowledgeable and genuine. The two make a great Thursday night team. Always feel welcome here. It's a favorite date night spot too!

“Buena comida, excelente atención amabilidad y educación del personal. Rapidez en el servicio y el plato equilibrado y bien presentado: resaltan la limpieza del plato los cubiertos y el local en general. El ambiente es grato e invita a volver para conocer el resto de la carta, de hecho volveré.

“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!”

The Allwood Diner 913 Allwood Rd, Clifton Diner • $

“I went to the Allwood Diner recently with my friend and ordered a Greek salad with grilled chicken. My friend ordered a crispy chicken sandwich with fries. My meal was delicious and it was a big portion. My friend, however, did not enjoy her meal because the crispy chicken was just lukewarm and felt as if it was placed in a microwave after being frozen. Also, she got a small portion of fries compared to what other patrons who ordered fries had on their plate.”
