“We had Liva Mediterranean for a catering event and we were blown away. From the moment I called the restaurant until the delivery every step of the way was so smooth. They truly care about the customer experience. Their food was delicious. Everybody was happy. Highly recommend.”
“Everything about Maggiano's is awesome; nothing bad... my son comes here at least once a week.”

“I visited this place for the first time, and they have some of the most delicious chicken and beef bowls I’ve ever had. The food was excellent, the location is great with plenty of parking, and the flavors were outstanding. This is definitely a spot everyone should visit whenever they’re in the area.”
“I recently moved to the area and Ive been on the hunt for the best food in the area - one of which was finding my new go to korean fried chicken place. This place did not disappoint and the high reviews left here are worth the hype. Ordered the spicy soy garlic + fries combo and it was deeeelicious. Fresh, hot, with the perfect amount of spice and the wings are bigger than what you'd get at a chain fried chicken restaurant. I also upgraded my fries to the truffle parmesean - truffle isnt as outstanding of a flavor but the parm was pretty good. The service is also so nice! Ill definitely be back to try their other food~”
“My only complaint is that the lone worker today, when I was paying with a credit card (without tap) took my card and tried to use tap. Before she took my card I was going to put it into the card processor. When I pointed out that it doesn’t have tap, she (2x’s) typed my card information into the register screen and it was declined (plenty of credit was available because I got gas with it shortly after). I then used my debit card which she just took from me and again tried to use tap (again not a feature on that card either). She was finally able to put my card information for the debit card and it went through. If she had let me put my card in in the first place there would have been no problem with the original transaction attempt. I feel some of the staff might need better/more training on using the register.”
“Great food!! Went there for the first time!”
“This past August, I had my daughter’s bridal shower at Sidebar. I made all my arrangements with Danny. It was a pleasure to work with him. Everything turned out great. The food was delicious, the drinks were great, the waiters and waitresses were very accommodating. Everyone had a great time. Don’t hesitate to have an event here!”

“First time visiting Moon Korean BBQ and we loved it!
From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the host and the staff. Our server, Ana, was amazing — so attentive, mindful, and friendly throughout our meal. We ordered the Supermoon set (BBQ and Shabu), and everything was delicious and fresh. Even our 9-month-old daughter enjoyed the experience! Great food, great service, and such a welcoming atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Great food and service, went here for Christmas Eve dinner and the menu was superb!!! From the appetizer to the dessert, i would highly recommend going here.”
“We eat at Hot Fish quite often, and usually order the same dishes. I was lucky enough to be their "Tasting Panel Foodie" winner, and was invited to try some different items from the menu. If you want to indulge in an unforgettable gastronomic experience, you have to try the Fresh Striped Bass. I ordered it with spicy sauce, but there are six different flavors to chose from. We also ordered the Sliced Beef with Black Pepper. The beef was so tender and juicy, paired with onions and bell peppers in a savory, black pepper sauce. Then we ordered Dry Pot Cabbage, a mouth-watering Sichuan dish that you have to try. For our last course, we had the Yang Chow Fried Rice, the best I have ever tasted. Thank you, Hot Fish. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and the staff and service were exceptional. I highly recommend dining here when you are looking for a great Sichuan experience.”

“I read the reviews before going, honestly some of them turned me off. However, when I went I was greeted by the nicest young lady ever and the service and food was fantastic. I would recommend The Coachdiner to anyone. The place is beautiful and the staff and food is amazing. Thanks Kim and Keisha, we are coming back”
“I used to work for Burger King in my teens and I’ve worked at many locations before. I used to take pride in assembling the burgers to peoples choices. I’ve ate at many different locations throughout my years and never received the same quality as when I used to be in that kitchen BUT AT THIS LOCATION, Lord. I am truly amazed at how well and accurate they got my order. You guys brought back a memory I forgot I had with how good this burger was. I came all the way to the reviews and I think that says a lot. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! next time I’m leaving a nice tip”
“I just wanted to apologize to the guy that works on Sunday morning at the first window. This was a few weeks ago in October of 2025. I was screaming and crying because I wanted the shake to be great like it always was by first in line. The guy went out of his way to help by even suggesting to make it in front of his so it comes out not soupy but I was so focused on being upset that I didn't hear what he was saying until after my dad told me. I appreciate his help and I feel really guilty on how I treated him. I suffer from severe anxiety, ocd, and autism spectrum so sometimes I get out of control but that was no excuse on how I treated him. I hope you all can forgive me here and I hope this guy reads this or someone at least tells him about this message but if not I understand. Thank you”
“I stopped in for a quick lunch while my car was being fixed and I only had a half hour to eat. I ordered a Value Meal with a McDouble, small French Fries, Chicken Nuggets and a small Coke. Everything was so fresh and nicely cooked. I was really impressed by the meal everything was sizzling hot including the fries that tasted right out of the fryer.\n\nThe service was impressive as well. The woman who took my order, came to the table with my food and a small plastic container of condiments and I thought this was very clever. You could pick what you needed and no waste.\n\nI was very impressed by both the food and service.”
“Thank you for a Fantastic Fathers Day Dinner. Highest Recommendation!!”
“Went there for the first time today and it was amazing! Great service and food was delicious! They had large selection of margaritas and desserts. The decor and music was fantastic. Will definitely be back again!”
Takeout Restaurants
“The #1 and the Chicken, Eggplant, or Meatball Parmigiana Sandwiches are literally perfect on every level. Expertly sliced, sized and also very fairly priced. The Daily Homemade soups are great as are the Daily Specials. If I lived closer I'd eat lunch here daily. Cash $$ only.”
“Just found it on the way to our hotel when we stop at dominoes pizza ,so I just enter the restaurant and order burns road chutney paratha roll and mayo garlic roll and falooda for me and my husband. And don’t regret at all . Amazing food. And having authentic falooda after so long. I must say falooda was actually the hit better than Toronto. (We are visiting newyork from toronto.) very near by to our uncle’s home. So we will definitely stop by next visit to newyork for falooda for sure.”
“Love their pizza. Just the right cheese to sauce ratio for me and dough tastes great. Prices are very reasonable considering prices for eating out these days. Went to both locations and found out the one in Ridgewood closed. Was disappointed but at least this location is still here.”
“I tried this place for lunch and the sandwhiches here are great, fresh bread, well-dressed and cooked Halal meats... << It is so hard to find places that only serves Halal meats in Hackensack.
This place is truely a hidden gem in Hackensack for a quick bite for lunch. I will be coming here more often for lunch, as I would like to try other items on their menu.”
“Courteous, family run business! Their sauce is made fresh, everyday. And it tastes like it! Wow! I've been to so many different acidy sauce "heartburn" pizzerias, throughout the Bergen County area, and I always need Alkaseltzer, after eating their burned sauced foods. It's terrible, how they reheat and overcook their sauce. But, not this one! This place is the best! By far! Absolutely no heartburn! I have tried many menu items, too. I've been frequently going there, over a year now. Their food is more in the lines of what you'd expect to taste at a fine Italian restaurant. Certainly, not a common pizzeria. Pricing is great, too! This place and the staff of employees, along with the new owner and his kids, deserve every bit of (5) stars! The absolute best around!”
“I couldn’t believe how great the food was. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. In addition the atmosphere was wonderful and our server Andrew In Hackensack NJ was such a delight. He totally paid attention to my nut allergy and had the manager bring my meal out to ensure it was nut free. We are definitely going back! 😃”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Looooved the atmosphere at this cute Puerto Rican owned cafe. The coquito latte?! AMAZING. My friend got the avocado toast and I got the breakfast sandwich on Mexican bread. 9/10! The only downfall was that people were comfortably seated and no one was really policing the tables, but my friend and I finally got a seat and were able to enjoy the experience a little better.”
“I work 5 min away and I was really craving a burger and this place showed up on my search. Let me just say their signature Bacon avocado burger is so delicious! I could’ve ordered another one, I love burgers with a good sesame seed bun. Definitely recommend 10/10 😋”
“Really good pizza that is traditional style but mixed with a little modern twist. Still feels like your local pizza shop but pizza these days needs to be really on points and this is one of the places. The owners name is Rob and he’s from the area, really cool guy. Highly recommend checking it out”
“The name doesn’t tell you the reality of this place! The staff is lovely and they serve breakfast lunch and dinner in addition to being an ice cream shop. A wonderful place for a quick meal in the cutest little shop. It’s adorable. A true mom & pop hidden gem on Main Street. I love having breakfast & a coffee here.”

“If you want that sandwich you know Subway is the only fresh place to get it! My kids love going to this location especially because of the clean , nice environment and the attentive staff who are friendly and get it right how we like it.
Even when we pick up food to take home they always make sure it's made neatly and never leaking or exploding . This location is a a favorite quick lunch for my kids and family!”
“I’ve been coming to SGD Dubu So Gong Dong Tofu & Korean BBQ for years, and it never disappoints! The food is always delicious, comforting, and consistent—especially the tofu soup and LA Galbi. The flavors are authentic, the portions are generous, and the staff is always warm and welcoming.
It’s one of those rare spots that stays just as good no matter how many times you visit. Easily one of my go-to Korean restaurants!”
“atmosphere.. I recommend the chicken quesadilla..Barb q melt .burgers sliders sauted onions n melted American yellow cheese.. also. our new sauces..”
“Really awesome Ecuadorian-owned restaurant on main st. They moved to this new location. We ordered a Bolon de Verde Mixto Platter and a steak, egg, and cheese sandwich. I also ordered a Quaker which was not on the menu and coffee. Although they got the incorrect cheese that I had ordered on the sandwich, the food, service, and atmosphere was still really great. There's plenty of seating, music, and two good sized TVs that would probably be great for game days. They have a very extensive menu and I look forward to coming back! Come support this local business!”

“My husband and I live right down the street and always pass this place when driving home. We decided this morning to pop in. I love that's it's most likely family owned as we own a family owned business also. We love to give our business to small local businesses. We ordered the chicken and rice and beans and it was well seasoned and cooked. Very tasty. We will definitely be back to try another item off the menu.”
“I noticed a chalkboard sign out on the sidewalk with a list of tasty birria options and it enticed my husband and I to go in and try their food and oh we are so glad we did! This is our new favorite spot for all things birria not to mention their carne asada fries it was so good definitely a must try. Highly recommend!”
“I work in Hackensack and am something of a hot chocolate addict. I've bought my favorite beverage at many establishments but find Cafe Mannina has the secret to making it wonderful every time. And for only two bucks, compared with a mediocre cup I got recently at a high-end place for $5.50. Perhaps they use steamed milk, and froth it?The server on duty when I am there is always pleasant and efficient.Sorry I cannot vouch for any of the other beverage or food items, but there are always people who seem to be heartily enjoying their food whenever I pop in.”
“Oh boy, hold onto your forks, folks, because I just had the most mind-boggling experience with the Friends Of The Chef weight loss meal prep program! I mean, seriously, my taste buds are in shock while my scale did a whole celebration.First off, let's talk about the weight loss wizardry that happened here. I signed up for delivery on Friday for Sunday, started chowing down on these remixes of my childhood favorites, and BAM! In just four days, I've dropped 4.4 lbs.! I'm over here calculating whether I've actually lost weight or my bathroom scale is just pranking me. Is this sorcery or just some culinary version of a magic show?Now, let's chat about these remixes, shall we? It's like the chef took my beloved comfort foods from back in the day and gave them a snazzy makeover. I'm talking about food glow-ups that would make Cinderella jealous. Tres golpes? Transformed into a low-calorie sensation that tastes like a symphony of flavor explosions. La bandera? It's like the chicken went to culinary school and graduated with honors in being healthier but still lip-smackingly delicious.And the taste, oh dear taste buds, they're doing a conga line of joy! It's like a flavor party in my mouth and everyone's invited. I'm tempted to put on some dancing shoes and do the cha-cha just to express my taste bud's enthusiasm. The taste is so spot-on, I'm half-convinced my abuela must've been secretly hired as a consultant because it's like a teleportation device to my childhood dinner table. It's like they bottled up the nostalgia and sprinkled it on every dish. Seriously, if a meal can induce time-travel-like nostalgia, this is it.But wait, there's more! I'm practically counting the seconds till I can place my order for next week's meals. I'm on the edge of my seat like it's a cliffhanger episode of my favorite TV show. Who needs suspenseful dramas when you've got meal prep excitement?So there you have it, folks. Friends Of The Chef's weight loss meal prep program is the real deal – a journey of flavors, weight loss surprises, and an abuela-approved trip down memory lane. If you're into losing weight while feeling like you're being serenaded by a taste symphony that's straight out of your childhood dreams, this is the meal plan for you. Just remember, this isn't just a meal plan; it's a culinary carnival for your taste buds and a scale shrinker in disguise.”
“Hoy es nuestro aniversario and nothing better to indulge ourselves!!!-my wife and I had a great time at Rosa Mexico specially with Margaritas and Guacamole made by Kevin Quito at the River side Square Hackensack NJ”
“Delicious food and very friendly service. Love to go there....”
“Lotus Cafe in Hackensack is illegal levels of good. Pork fried rice was smoky and greasy in a soul-healing way, shrimp lo mein had perfect noodle bounce, and the boneless spare ribs were basically candy. The pork egg roll was thick, crispy, and loud, and the General Tso’s chicken? Crispy, saucy, sweet-heat chaos done right.
Big portions, zero misses. This place doesn’t just serve Chinese food—it asserts dominance. 🥡🔥”

“I'm 67 years old now but when I was 9 years old my mom was a waitress at the Lido. Frank and Ellen were the original owners at the time and I would go to their house and play with their kids. I used to drive the cooks crazy, I'd walk into the kitchen and watch them cook. I used to dance in front of the mirror in the lady's room. I would sit at the bar and bug the bartender for maraschino cherries. Wonderful memories and I'm so glad to see that the Lido is still there serving the same food they did 60 years ago! Family atmosphere, great memories.”
“Excelente servicio.!!!! Los empleados son muy profesionales, impecable servicio, y la comida deliciosa. Fascinada con los frijoles ?, el ? pollo mejor dicho todo, super limpio, pero lo mejor la simpatía de Marcela y el toque final, EL CAFECITO CHEVERE!! Súper recomendado!!!”
“We had chiccharones and goat stew. My Dominican friend said it was the best chicchones she ever ate. Another friend said the goat stew was excellent. I really recommend this place for flavorful food. The owner is so nice and made sure everything was good for us.”

“Came here (after a quick Google search for Kosher food) the morning after a wedding in the area. Best culinary decision I’ve made all year. They will make you anything you want (within reason) even if not on the menu. I grew up in Texas not keeping kosher, and have been craving good Mexican food - something not common in NYC or on the kosher restaurant circuit. I asked for a breakfast burrito with relatively low expectations, given the above. They knocked it out of the park. Just like I remember, if not better. I guess I should not have been surprised given the chef is a veteran from Oaxaca. Fresh coffee, friendly service, and attention to detail - they even use Mexican-inspired ceramic mugs and plates. Run, don’t walk, here. I’m honestly considering having them cater my simchas in Brooklyn. It’s that good. This place is a gem.”
“This place was great, if you look at my profile it may see like I only leave good reviews but it’s because I usually only review if the place stood out and this place is one of them. Such a fun a delicious new twist on Indian food. The quality and quantity of the food was great for the price and their homemade mango lassi is delicious. Also got to speak with the owner briefly and he was very friendly. If you are craving Indian but want to try something a little different I would definitely check this place out”
“I was looking for a healthy but hearty meal after a long day of work and salad house hit it outta the park. It’s a newer place on Main Street I have been meaning to check out and it didn’t disappoint. I made my own salad bowl with salmon that was cooked PERFECTLY truly amazing. Everything was so flavorful I ended up not even using the dressing I picked it simply wasn’t needed in my opinion so now I have some sauce to make something at home with! It ended up being around $35+ but that’s because I got a lot of add on and honestly I don’t regret it at all. It was a treat yourself kinda tab lol. Everything was really fresh and the portions are HUGE so treat yourself to something here you won’t regret it.”
