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!“

“A delicious Thai experience! The food is soulful and comforting.

Starting with drinks - the Thai iced tea was made with a perfect ratio, so it wasn’t too sweet, and it was refreshingly fragrant.
The lychee martini was aromatic, and strong.

Anytime I see curry puffs on a menu, it’s an immediate must, and these were definitely worth a try. The dough was crispy on the outside, without being greasy, and the filling was very flavorful.

Moving on to the sticky rice with mango. The ripe mango was juicy and sweet which complimented the glutinous rice perfectly.

The waiter suggested the pad thai, one of their most popular dishes, and after trying it I understood why. I also appreciate that you could choose your spice level.

I couldn’t leave without having my favorite curry, Massamon, the spices married to create a piquant dish. I never had avocado served on top of hot curry, but instead of the texture throwing me off I actually enjoyed the creamy aspect. The shrimp was fresh, and cooked well. My only complaint would be that the potatoes were severely undercooked, which was disappointing because I love a soft potato that has soaked up the curry.

Can’t wait to be back and try more dishes:)“

“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. ?“

“Want to take a second and say how much I love this juice bar!!! I have been drinking freshly pressed juices over a decade now and I can tell the difference between a good juice shop compared to not so good one!!! Let’s start with the fact that everything here is freshly pressed, and they have unique ingredients, including turmeric, seamoss, black seed oil, etc. The girls here are extremely kind and they deliver exceptional customer service!!! This place deserves more five stars and please do not listen to negative comments and people that go to juice shops expecting to get sweet unhealthy sugar loaded drinks might as well go to 711!!! This is my Sunday go to spot. I love it here thank you girls so so much keep shining!!“

I only order cakes from this location because their decorator is always on point when it comes to designing. My son loved his cake and so did everyone else. I’ve learned to just give a theme to the decorator because they always do an amazing job and I have come to trust and appreciate their creativity. And while the Icecream is delicious, this post is to mainly reflect the greatness of the staff and especially the decorators.“
