“I was craving a BLT on Thanksgiving morning (w/ beef bacon) and decided to try this place instead of going to Starbucks. What a pleasant surprise! This place is awesome. Very welcoming atmosphere. The service was top notch. My BLT and iced latte was amazing! I was also given a sample of coffee/espresso that was so good. I will definitely be back.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional service from Yanerys!

I had the pleasure of having lunch at Mary’s Restaurant, and the best part of my experience was the incredible service provided by Yanerys. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm smile and made to feel truly welcome. Their attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism were beyond impressive.

Yanerys was very attentive! Yanerys is a true treasure for this restaurant.

If you are eating at Mary’s, I recommend ordering Yanerys—you won’t be disappointed! We will definitely return, thanks to your exceptional service.“

“Great spot for a quick coffee break! I tried their tea, coffee, and brownie — all were excellent. The brownie was rich and moist, and the coffee had a nice aroma. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere make it a perfect place to relax
Yesim and Nazlı best workers thank you so much🙏“

“oh my god it's been 4 months since my husband and myself poped in for breakfast on our weekend getaway, and I CANNOT stop thinking about how AMAZING the food was.... looks like another 9 hour trip is in our near future 😭😍 p.s. get the pancakes🫶🏻“

“From the moment we walked past this place, we could SMELL how special it was… the alluring aroma was hard to stay away from. On a whim, we walked in and were warmly greeted by staff and invited to sit quite promptly despite being so busy. First impression: great!

Service was excellent, and ambiance was very warm. But the food… the food was the star of this place. If you ever pass by this place, PLEASE do yourselves the favor and try the banana oatmeal. It is a perfect treat to end your meal as a pseudo dessert. Anything from this menu will tantalize your tastebuds in a way that will keep you coming back for more.

“She was a friendly, attentive and caring. Would recommend her as a waitress and this IHOP location anytime“

“Bagel House always delivers excellent service and delicious food! The team is friendly, efficient, and makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. Their bagels are fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made — whether it’s breakfast or lunch, you can always count on a great meal. It’s a go-to spot we truly enjoy and highly recommend!“

“salmon cake platter with grits was great!“

“First off, big big thank you and shout out to our lovely waitress miss blonde bomb shell! So welcome from the jump. Old school diner dive feel! I love this place. My partner used to come here as a kid! He loves this place to. Literally everything we ordered was delicious and fresh. The service was fast and officiant! I loved my experience here and I can't wait to go back! Such a 💎 gem! Stuffed waffles, breakfast sausage links and corned beef hash(made homemade) are all highly recommended but like I said, everything was delicious! 🥴🥴🤤🤤“

“the Ecuadorian sandwich...that's not a real item from my country... you should change the name I feel you should google the right food“

“One of our favorite places to take out. Everything is always fresh and the quality never changes. My husband and I love their wraps and my kids love their chicken fingers. The fries are the best and travel well / never soggy. The staff is also always so friendly - including and especially John who kindly runs the food out to my car anytime I call ahead if I happen to be with my kids so I don’t have to unload and load 2 kids just to run inside and grab the order. Thank you so much!!!“

“Nice atmosphere and everything tasted wonderful. The only thing that would make this place better would be mimosas!“

“What a great and convenient place to have lunch or breakfast. I truly enjoy the sandwiches and soups. My favorite is beef barley on Tuesdays. Chicken noodle fills the bill any day with different pastas to satisfy your palate. Friendly service and just a great place to eat. Come and enjoy your meal, it will truly be worth it.!!!“

“Good food and reasonable prices. I often go here during lunch breaks. Easiest spot to get bagels in the neighborhood without walking multiple blocks. The outdoor patio in the back is great during the warmer months, indoor seating is tight.

I tried to eat here earlier in the morning (7:30am) on a weekday and they weren’t open yet, so worth nothing that their early hours may not match what is listed.“

“I haven't eaten here in years but the Italian chicken sandwich I had about 17 years ago is worth a late review... It was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. It was made with the juiciest chopped up center breast meat, I thought this spot closed years ago... I wonder if they still make that sandwich the same way they did back in the day?!!!!“

“Fabulous food and very friendly!“

“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“Great menu and quality food“

“I was there last Tuesday as my friends and I have been coming on Tuesdays to take advantage of the senior discount. We usually ask to be seated at Briana’s assigned area but for whatever reason she was not there. (Hope she’s Ok)Geraldo had been asked to cover for her in her absence and I must say he did a wonderful job .Geraldo was very attentive and friendly ,getting us whatever we needed in a timely manor and made our visit very enjoyable. Thank you Geraldo. We will be back.“

“Great menu and quality food“

“5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delish as always. Love the shallots, leeks & goat cheese crepe & the best coffee! My fiancé loves the steak sandwich. Never disappoints & love to eat outside in good weather. Great service, great food for great prices. Tres bonne!👨🏻‍🍳“

“Tucked-away Gem!
My husband and I stumbled across this small grill diner hidden in the cut — and what a find! We stopped in for brunch and everything was spot on. He had the shrimp and grits, and I went with the meat lovers with egg whites. Both dishes were so good — seasoned just right and cooked perfectly. The food was delicious and the service was just as excellent. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cozy spot with quality food. 👌🏼“

“First Watch
1 Bergen Town Center
Paramus, NJ 07652

Coffee
Double Bacon Parmesan Hash

This breakfast & brunch chain restaurant recently opened within the complex of the Bergen Town Center mall. It is not located inside the mall, but in the lower level parking lot next to Home Goods.

I knew this location was going to be on the money because there was an hour wait when my girlfriend and I checked in.

To entertain yourself while you wait, window in the surrounding stores until you receive a text message alerting you that your table is ready.

When we were seated, I was impressed already. The chairs are comfortable and they automatically provided all three utensils; most places only provide a fork and knife and I always have to request a spoon.

These are a couple of the menu items I explored:

Coffee:
I usually never order coffee whenever I dine out because I am not a fan of milk or half & half. First Watch provides vanilla and hazelnut coffee creamers.

As a bonus, the coffee is served in a refillable carafe ( similar to IHOP); if it is empty, the server will gladly refill it.

Double Bacon Parmesan Hash:
This was a unique, but phenomenal breakfast plate. I knew this signature item was going to be a winner when I saw the sidewalk billboard poster.

It was topped with a vegetable medley, over easy eggs, bacon and smothered in Alfredo sauce. The plate was very filling and I didn’t feel bloated afterwards.

If you decide to dine here, I highly recommend arriving in the morning or early afternoon because they close every day at 2:30 PM.

“Stopped in for lunch on our way to Adirondacks and felt immediately welcomed (even though we arrived 20 min before closing). My husband had a western egg sandwich and the homemade corned beef hash, which was exceptional. I had a tuna sandwich and while it’s hard to get excited about tuna fish, it was a perfect sandwich. This is the type of neighborhood place that every town had at one point - a place where people met to eat, share the news of the day, connect - and of which there are too few today. A real gem.“

“Loved the atmosphere and food! Dani was spot on. Had a wonderful time with my family. Exactly what I needed!!!💜💜Time with my awesome family!!“

“If you’re in Hoboken and haven’t stopped by Biscuit Babe, you’re playing yourself because this BBQ Biscuit is it.
The first bite hits you with that juicy, tender chicken perfectly seasoned and cooked so it’s not dry for even one second. Then you get the savory onions, soft and caramelized just enough to melt into the biscuit.
And the BBQ sauce?
Listen… it’s that sweet-meets-smoky kind that sticks to the chicken and your soul.“

“the best in every category“

“El exquisito ceviche mixto que probé en mi vida lo conosi aquí , la sopa de mariscos rompe cualquier récord , los lomo saltados son igual que en Peru y los desayunos americanos que les encantan a mis hijos no me cabe duda que este restaurante tiene todo me encanta , es difícil encontrar un lugar que cumpla las exigencias de uno , mi admiración a los cosineros y personal del restaurante! Nunca cambien“

“Such amazing and warmhearted people, I love how I was craving for my usual breakfast sandwich for an amazing price and I couldn’t find one nearby the Exchange Place area, till I caught my eye on a little food truck stand… I will definitely come back and support this local/small business. Well deserved for these kind people.“

“Always a delicious home style breakfast - cooked however we ask… truly true best bacon around!! We adore Maryanne and Jack… James may steal the show tho!!“

“I recently ordered the Grilled Chicken Combo for store pickup, and it was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The store had a pleasant atmosphere, and the staff were friendly, professional, and provided excellent service. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend this place to others.“

“I've known Dino and his lovely wife Helen for more than 30+ years in the food industry. Excellence in every aspect of the restaurant business is par excellence and superb. Food is always top notch and employees are very friendly. This is the place. Thank you Dino and Helen for 30+ years of greatness.“

“Torta truck did not disappoint, decided to give it a try today after the many mentions & good reviews.
