The K-Ramen is nice and spicy and delicious! Michin dumplings are a go to dish. The bulgogi and bibimbap and perfectly seasoned, and very tender.“

“Is there anything as comforting on a cold night as slurping thin rice noodles from a rich, deep, stewed-for-hours broth? Others might disagree, but it was what my taste buds were screaming for on a recent blustering cold night. My husband and I stumbled upon this restaurant, and the short version of this review is that we not only satisfied my cravings, but I think we've found our favorite Vietnamese spot in the area.

I was bemused by the way they display comically oversized versions of their menu at every table. What I initially considered to be somewhat gimmicky turned out to be quite convenient since everyone at the table was simultaneously viewing the same menu while discussing ordering options.

I love how quickly the food gets to your table at Vietnamese restaurants, and Pho Saigon is no exception. Our crispy spring rolls arrived mere minutes after ordering, and they were everything I'd want from a good fried appetizer - meaty, flavorful, and hot enough to do some of those open-mouthed dragon breaths after your first bite. My beef pho was also fantastic, with the broth perfectly redolent of all the spices that imparted their flavors. But I was most impressed with my husband's chicken vermicelli bowl. The meat was beautifully seasoned and, once mixed with the supplied sauce, made for a light and refreshing meal. It'll definitely be my next order when I'm here (and, if it weren't already clear enough, I'm most certainly going be back for more).

Service is polite and blazingly efficient. If you're in the area and cursed with the craving for solid Vietnamese food, don't miss this restaurant.“

Bro-Ritos Mexican • $

“Working with Bro-Ritos was a very pleasant experience and we can't wait to bring them back to Rutgers-NB again! From the moment we contacted them through their website, they were professional, prompt, and friendly.We invited them for our annual Black Student Social which is a fall semester welcome program. The staff were kind and worked quickly to serve over 200 students. Our students were happy with their tacos and burritos. The owner was very accommodating and met all of our needs.Administratively, I was very impressed with Bro-Ritos. We made A LOT of requests and changes and had to work through the nuances of getting a new vendor approved, but Bro-Ritos was always responsive and on top of it. They are true team players.If you have the opportunity, you should book the Bro's!“

“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.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chit Chat Diner – Hackensack, NJ

Chit Chat Diner is the perfect late-night spot, open 24 hours with an endless menu to satisfy all your cravings! We tried the quesadillas and the Sampler, and both were hits. The quesadillas were deliciously cheesy, and the Sampler was full of fun bites. The mozzarella sticks were piping hot and fresh, but the fries were a bit cold—just a tiny hiccup. The chicken tenders were juicy, and the sauces? A total game-changer! A real "star" quality with these "little dippers".

Service was spot-on, and the atmosphere has charming McKinsey Childs decor that's inviting while feeling warm and cozy. It’s no wonder this place has been crowned the best diner in New Jersey! I’ll definitely be back the next time those late-night cravings hit. ?“

It appeared that all staff were happy to help even though we were not their table. We appreciated the great service. The restaurant is beautiful with a very relaxing atmosphere.

“Where every menu item is a specialty and the options are limitless...this place is a factory! Bustling restaurant on NYE, packed inside and in mall dining section. Food comes quick once you make up your mind several times. TCF uses front and back waiter system to turn over tables quickly. Portions are above average and if the menu item says spicy, there is some heat. And yes, there are skinny menu items. Cocktail was good, beer options very limited and surprised TCF doesn't offer local craft. Unless you are a big eater, cheesecakes can be taken home“
