“😍 I Love ❤️ their chicken and steak 🥩 tacos 🌮 and their Melanesa steak 🥩 sandwich 🥪 🥰❤️”

“Jersey Platers is seriously a 10/10! The food is always fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The plates are AMAZING — packed with so much food and everything tastes incredible. And the big fries?? They do not play around! You get a huge portion and they’re cooked perfectly every time.

The service is just as good as the food — super friendly and welcoming. You can tell everything is made with care. If you haven’t tried Jersey Platers yet, you’re missing out. Definitely one of my favorite spots and I’ll keep coming back! 🔥🍽️”

“Omni was an Awesome server can’t wait to go back excellent”

“Best service and affordable Price!”

“We had a great dinner tonight at Happy Vegans. We were greeted warmly and offered a taste of their special dish kofta, which is a delicious mix of spices, tomato and bulgur. 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.”

“The birria tacos were delicious! Excellent service.”

“Excellent places , if you want to have at great time with family or friends , great atmosphere , great food , great drinks , great staff , ty Gretel will highly recommended to everyone #new sherif in town 🙏🏼”

“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.”

“D’era House is such a hidden gem in Clifton, NJ. We came in for a custom cake and left completely impressed. The cake was fresh, creamy, and absolutely delicious.The space is cozy, clean, and welcoming, and their desserts and coffee are top tier. You can feel the passion behind everything they make.If you’re searching for a great bakery near me or need cakes for special occasions, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!”

“Chevys has been my go-to spot for nearly ten years. Great food and prices. Brett, the server, is among the best in the business. He's attentive, kind, personable, and professional.”

“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!”

“Great spot for drinks and a drink 🥃 what a great time and place, we well be coming back”

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite.

“Everything you could want from a North Jersey Bar. Happy to get in there this weekend to eat good and enjoy the games.”

“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!”

“We had an excellent experience at It’s Greek To Me in Fort Lee. The food was outstanding from start to finish. One of the biggest surprises was the bean soup it’s not ordered often (according to our server), but it was absolutely delicious and something totally new for us. Everything else was just as good: the fried zucchini croquettes, calamari, feta puffs with sriracha honey, Greek salad, NY strip steak, and the grilled seafood platter with shrimp, calamari, and octopus. For dessert, the baklava was classic and perfect, and the Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts was incredible.
The service truly stood out. Benny took amazing care of us and made the entire experience even better attentive, kind, and professional. Parking is available, which is a huge plus in Fort Lee. We would 100% come back and highly recommend this restaurant.”

“Second time ordering lechona from La Victoria. We hosted family visiting from Colombia and they were all very impressed by the portion size, crispy skin, and how delicious it was. La Victoria was very accommodating with a last minute change of plans and was very helpful and generous with preparation suggestions and follow up. We will certainly be ordering from them again. Muchas Gracias!”

“Smashburger in Clifton offers a welcoming and lively dining experience. The atmosphere is vibrant, with plenty of TVs playing football games, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal while catching up on sports. The large mural of the New York City skyline adds a stylish and local touch that elevates the environment beyond a typical fast-casual setting.
The food is the highlight here. I ordered the Double Deluxe Smash, which was easily one of the best burgers I’ve had. The meat was juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The fries were equally impressive, crispy, crunchy, and well-seasoned. To top it off, I tried the new Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Shake, which I can’t recommend enough. A thoughtful detail is that they serve the extra shake in a metal cup, so you get more than just what’s in your glass.
Service was also excellent. My food arrived in under five minutes, and the staff were both efficient and genuinely friendly, adding to the positive experience.
Smashburger Clifton combines great food, friendly service, and an enjoyable atmosphere to create a standout casual dining experience.”

“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. Sería bueno que para clientes nuevos como es mi caso puedan leer en algún lado de la publicación el/los lugares donde podemos estacionar vehículos.”

“Been eating here for years, the Cuban Sandwhich is best I’ve had anywhere. They have bakery section with top notch tres leche in multiple flavors if you can get there before they sell it out. Great atmosphere, great friendly service and very respectable prices. I love it here”

“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.”

“I would like to send a big THANK YOU to Ameti’s Pizza in Clifton for delivering an amazing family dinner to our house last night! 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! We love you for it!”

“Todo delicioso! Buen servicio y muy atentos 🥳”

“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.”

“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.”

“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! 💚🍓”
