“This will become your go to place for BBQ! Highly recommend. We had some amazing food. Pastrami is my go to and I have had it at over 50 places this was a favorite. Everything is homemade and you can tell the chef is passionate!! All sauces served on the side so you can choose your own sauce adventure. I never thought I would be equally as excited about ketchup as I was the fries but here we are. It was so laid back and there was no pressure! This place has very knowledgeable staff. I can’t wait to go back and eat again.“

“Amazing food, authentic flavor“

“Never had a bad meal here and have visited Otto's since they opened. Enjoying the Chinese pop up tonight !“

“The ribs, baby backs, pulled pork, wings, and barbecue chicken were all cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and truly fall-off-the-bone. The smoky, rich barbecue taste was spot on. We definitely ordered more than we needed; there were ten of us, and the platters were massive.
This has become our go-to spot for barbecue and is absolutely worth the drive from NYC. There’s plenty of parking, a great pub-style atmosphere inside, and a spacious outdoor area where you can enjoy your meal the way BBQ is meant to be. The service was excellent, too.“

“great local spot love it here“

“I recently visited Yangji, a fantastic lamb skewer restaurant. The skewers are perfectly seasoned and cooked, full of flavor every time. The staff are super friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, perfect for enjoying great food with friends or family. I’ll definitely be coming back highly recommend Yangji if you’re craving delicious lamb skewers!“

“so fresh. highly recommend everything on the menu is so good“

“My fiance and I came here the other day. The food was incredible, it was our first time trying KBBQ and we had such a great experience! The service was great all the staff was super nice (our waiter Joseph was super kind!) the power went out due to a snow storm mid meal & we still felt well taken care of (plenty of candles and servers around). I would recommend trying this place!!:) The hanger steak & marinated short rib were out favorites !“

“I love this place and the girls who work there“

“Thank you for a Fantastic Fathers Day Dinner. Highest Recommendation!!“

“one of my favorite Korean restaurants in NJ 🤍 @anytime
They serve a wide variety of Korean–Japanese fusion dishes, using fresh ingredients with bold flavors and beautiful presentation.

Highly recommend the Beef Short Ribs — insanely tender and juicy, plus the staff cooks it for you 👌
Another must-order is the Clam & Flour Dough Flake Soup — loaded with clams and packed with deep umami flavor. Absolutely perfect for cozy weather.“

“I ordered for the three of us yesterday I live in Edgewater and I’m big on local businesses. My first reaction was wow $100 for dinner, but I was blown away like always but even more the quality of your food especially the brisket sandwich and the coleslaw wow, the smell of the smoke meat the taste of the sweet spicy barbecue sauce and the beautiful coleslaw made me so happy. I can only finish half of it and here we are a day later and I’m finishing it. Keep it up guys your food As well as the gentleman working the counter“

“Great food Great staff Brisket is absolutely amazing“

“We were so fortunate to have such a wonderful server assist us Chad. His attentiveness throughout the meal was truly remarkable. They offered excellent recommendations with a genuine smile. Every request was handled promptly and with great care. It's clear they take pride in providing exceptional service. We truly appreciated their positive and welcoming demeanor. Our experience was elevated significantly thanks to their efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment based on their outstanding hospitality.“

“The food is really good. I always get the egusi and fufu. I've gone in enough for the customer service to be better, almost feels rude. Went with a coworker and I actually felt that the interaction was more friendly. Anyway.... I'll still continue to go get food or just send someone to get it for me.
Good eatings :)“

“best bbq in Only In New Jersey😍“

“Placed the order over the phone yesterday afternoon. Roasted corn and jerk chicken was a really good value for 2ppl. The gentleman there was kind enough to accommodate my friend and I with plates and utensils.He also offered us extra pieces of bread for free.Call ahead of time, wait time may take 15min-20min. Great customer service!“

“Wonderful owners make amazing Thai food. I have been to many in the area. This was hands down the best.“

“Always a great meal. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Owner is very nice and always making sure everything is to satisfaction. Very clean and sanitary. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone.“

“Spinning family set on paella-like griddle good portion, good variety. Also includes 물/비빔냉면
Draft beer selection includes Sapporo.
Dessert selection strawberry latte. Ran out of tiramisu.

Interior bright and modern. Servers perky. No longer valet parking.“

“Went there today for the first time with my wife, I had the 10 West burger, so delicious, cooked perfectly and the burger was huge, just the right number of toppings and the bacon jam hit it out of the park. The sweet potato fries were excellent and enough for two people. The chips that come with the burger were also good. My wife had the regular burger with no cheese and an order of regular fries. She really enjoyed it and said it was cooked perfectly. The staff was friendly, the owner, Mel, greeted us, took our order and chatted with us while our order was being prepared. We were given a little disc that lit up and vibrated when the order was ready to be picked up at the counter. One of the best burgers around! A little pricy, but definitely worth it! We'll be going back for another delicious mouthwatering experience!“

“By far my fave kbbq spot. The meats are high quality and the servers are always very friendly. Their marinated short ribs and house special spicy pork are my absolute faves. Love how the charcoal flavor gets into the meat. Their mool nengmyun (buckwheat noodles in a cold broth) compliments their bbq meats really well, and their broth is the real deal. The Korean-style beef tartare (over seasoned sushi rice) is phenomenal and my must-eat every time I go.“

“Food is very good but pricy: every thing is an add on. 4 stars for price of food., special right now is 1/2 off boba drink with purchase of a bowl (3/30/26)
Service was friendly and great, food wait time 10 min for 2 bowls and a platter
Smal place, bar for sitting, however parking is limited with small spaces. (I’d park at Tous Les Jours across the street~same owner)“

“I love this place! Jonathan is very nice, and the food is awesome. From the amazing beef chili (very hearty and tasty) to the crunchy footlong(?) corn dog (yum!) and the BBQ Beef Brisket... and the grilled Teriyaki Wings), everything was terrific with lots of flavor. Great service too. Two thumbs up, way up! 👍👍“

“I highly recommend this place! The food is amazing, and the flavors are unforgettable!“

“Wonderful place, wonderful people, wonderful food. The presentation is it's own experience. I went at noon and the dinner menu was already available. They have a small parking lot. We did lunch specials with a dumpling appetizer. The dumplings were so light and fresh. The portions were huge. I came away with enough leftovers for at least two more meals. Next time we're trying the ribs.“

“This is the best place in the world I would visit it even if im half-way around the world“

“Best wings I’ve ever had!! The only words that describe is simply amazing. Has become one of my favorite Jersey spots, and the cornbread is fantastic. The staff is incredibly nice, best service ever!!❤️❤️❤️“

“I've driven by this place a billion times and never once gave it a second thought. I'm also not a food truck kinda guy but wow did I just find a new spot to frequent.

Prices are so reasonable considering today's absurdity and the food is great. I had the brisket and pulled pork sandwiches, both tasted great. My foodie fiance loved it as well and she's a tough crowd.

If you skipped this place before, turn back and give it a shot. The guy who helped me was very polite, which is rare to see good in person customer service these days. Trust me, this joint should have way more than 30 reviews.“

“맛있네요! 이동네 오래간만에 갈한만 갈비집이 생겼어요!! ^^“

“Thanksgiving dinner was a little underwhelming. I ordered the take out turkey dinner. No butter for cornbread or sweet potato, no utensils offered. Dessert was a tiny donut drop, not impressive. It was budget priced, but you get what you pay for. Overall, not awful but carelessly presented.“

“Food and drinks are the best“

“Yook92 in Palisades Park is a standout Korean BBQ spot that I’m eager to return to. I visited at 425 Grand Ave, and the clean, welcoming environment set the perfect tone for a delicious meal. I ordered the Sweet and Spicy Chicken, and it was amazing—authentic, fresh, and perfectly cooked with a balanced kiss of heat and sweetness that reminded me of home-cooked Korean flavors. The chicken was incredibly juicy and tender, and every bite carried vibrant seasoning. The staff were attentive and friendly throughout, making me feel appreciated and well taken care of without being intrusive. The overall vibe was warm and inviting, and the attention to cleanliness was evident in every corner of the dining area. Given the quality of the food, the freshness, the excellent service, and the spotless setting, I would confidently give Yook92 five stars and highly recommend it to anyone craving authentic Korean BBQ. If you’re in the area and love spicy-sweet poultry, this place is a must-visit. Would absolutely visit again to explore more menu options and relive that same comforting, homey experience.“

“muy buena la comida muy recomendable 👍👍“

“It's such a futuristic way of getting your Korean fried chicken. So simplistic so to the point crunch is phenomenal, And even though it's made to order it's still fast! It reminds me of those individual food dining cubbies/booths for people who like minimal contact/interactions during dining that I've tried in Japan before. A lot of the items that I wanted were sold out but the experience was so well that I will go back again in hopes to get those items ☺️

(I'm not a spicy person but if you are the bokki is perfect for you, to me it was too spicy to enjoy unfortunately, even with the cheese added. But everything else about the bokki was spot on delicious!)“

“They bring out bread with butter to your table. It is delicious 😋 My friend and I had the combo flo's steak and lobster tail 🦞. It was excellent. I like mine medium rare and it was done perfectly. We had the large chocolate stampede. It took both of us to finish the dessert. I highly recommend Longhorn Steakhouse in Rochelle Park NJ.“

“This is my absolute favorite place for Korean food in New Jersey.
The food is consistently excellent, the interior is clean, and the staff is always friendly and professional.
I especially recommend the Pork Ribs, Dolsot Gobdol with baby octopus and spicy beef and veggie soup!
Highly recommended!!“

“Went there for lunch so was not too busy. Food (kalbi) was excellent. Meat was extremely tender and their side dishes were tasty and plentiful. Their selection of food was good and was impressed by the selection of aged meats they had. Would definitely recommend this place to others. Parking is easy in their lot and price is comparable to other KBBQ restaurants. Only negative is their bathroom which appear very outdated.“

“The food and Sangria are amazing and the staff is the absolute best. Jessica and Max are a huge reason why me and my husband come here almost every Saturday. They are so kind and take great pride in the work that they do. That combination is special and unique. Can’t wait to go back🤗“

“Clean restaurant, well prepared and fairly priced options. BasicAmerican cuisine with a nice raw bar and German and Barbecue specials.“

“Totally worth the 1hr travel for us! I love the variety of food you can get and the lemonades. I also love the fact that they cook the meat for you. All you have to do is sit and enjoy. Aa formeats that is notorious for popping, they have a cover for that. You dont have to worry about anything but enjoying yourselves!“

“I've come here a few times with some friends to get a quick meal and it has never disappointed. The food is extremely reasonably priced and the quality is excellent for the cost, with a large plate of nachos only being 14 dollars and a full cheese pizza being only slightly more. If you come here with a large group and order shareable items the price is easily below 10 dollars per person. The service is very fast and the eating area is very pleasant and open.“

“Stopped by Carlitos Barbecue Taqueria and it delivered exactly what you want from a casual taco spot like bold flavors, fast service, and tacos that feel unapologetically messy in the best way.

The tortillas had great texture, the meats were juicy and well seasoned, and the balance of cilantro, onion, salsa, and lime kept everything bright without overpowering the protein. The birria-style tacos had that rich, comforting depth while the grilled meats brought a nice char and smokiness.

The green salsa had real heat and freshness to it, and pairing everything with a cold mango Jarritos completed the experience perfectly.

Not a polished “modern taco concept” trying too hard to be trendy, just flavorful street-style tacos done right with generous portions and solid execution. A great stop when you want something satisfying, casual, and packed with flavor.

“사장부터 직원 매우 불친절..자리를 기다리는 사람들에 대한 관리가 전혀 없고 중간 중간 여사장이나 직원이 아는 손님이 오면 중간중간에 슬쩍 끼워 놓음.한시간 이상을 기다리는 손님에 대한 기본 예의 조차 없음..“

“This place is absolutely incredible I love Firepit ! I tried some menu items that I never tried before including wings and an incredibly juicy burger with fries!

For our entree I shared a bbq platter with beef ribs, pork ribs, chicken, chorizo. Everything was incredibly tasty and delicious with just the right amount of salt! For sides we also shared French fries and yellow rice with black beans“
