“Great vibe. Absolutely LOVE the jazz trio. Food tasted great. Portions are quite small for the price, and the steak was very especially grizzly, unfortunately. Very attentive and well trained staff. Lots of push upselling drinks on the drinks, and they brought bottle water we had to pay for despite asking for tap 3 times. Wonderful wine and cocktails menu. Overall I would recommend for special occasions.“

We started with the babaganoush and tablouli salad. My husband had the lamb kebab and I had the chicken kofte. Everything was so flavorful and tender. I have no idea how to spell the dessert we shared, but it was like a non-crunchy creme brulee. SO GOOD, light and refreshing. Highly recommend this place.“

“First time at this Restaurant and we were greeted right away with a friendly hello. It seems like an average Chinese restaurant. They do make Hibachi style food here as well.We ordered Mumbo sauce wings and Honey/Old Bay sauce wings. They both were delicious! The fried shrimp was breaded and cooked to perfection! The added cocktail and tarter sauces on the side was appeasing to the pallet as well!We also had the fried rice (which contains eggs) and that was ok.The prices on their Menu is very reasonable! You get alot of food for your money.We did have to wait some time for our order and it did start to get a little busy when we were waiting, but all in all, it was worth the wait!Check out Hi Good Stuff in Clifton! It is a MUST try!!We will be returning here again to try their Boil Seafood Bags that they have!???“

“Great filet mignon - waiter said it comes with string bean but nothing on the side just steak with truffle sauce. Was a hearty portion and cooked perfectly. Not cheap expect to pay 70+ just for steak but quality was perfect. Wines weren’t that expensive. I’d go back to try their prime rib. In comparison Ruth Chris charges a little less for steak but upsells the wines.“

“Delicious and authentic Puerto Rican food. The yellow rice is soft and tasty; it is very well made. The pernil is also very well cooked but does lack a bit of seasoning, it still taste good but I think they cook can add a bit more seasoning to it and it will be PERFECT! I always feel like I am back at home whenever I order from Mis Raices.“

“I just returned from Costa Rica! Three days later I ran to Tucanes for Costa Rican food! They do not disappoint! Delicious, fresh, authentic and beautifully presented is exactly how to describe my meal! In addition to scrumptious food, TucanesHas a lovely, pristine atmosphere with excellent service.

I can't put into words how the flavors and quality of food are by far top notch. Sooo good!!! This place is a hidden gem and the food, drinks and service is amazing! Definitely will be back!!“

“Cool new spot in town! I was reluctant to try this place out but I decided to give it a try after seeing a nice crowd in there. It turns out there is a new owner, he just kept the name of the place the same. A mistake in my opinion but at least he did one good thing. He hired a great bartender named I know from Barrel and Brew. This guy can make a great drink and he is so personable. He interacts well with guests and designed a great menu of drinks. I enjoyed a couple of delicious margaritas while I was there. They also had a DJ named Bronson playing some great music. I look forward to seeing how this place does because I've always said this spot would make a great bar because of the nice patio outside. It would make a great hangout for the summer. I can't really comment on the food because I only tried an order of wings but they were good. The ambience though gave me reason to believe this place could make it at this spot.“

“We had a 40th Birthday Party in the private room on Saturday night. It was absolutely fantastic. The room is beautiful ,they had it set up as we discussed. The service was exemplary. FOOD was amazing. We have been enjoying Forte since they opened. I would highly recommend this venue for any private party.“

He shows impeccable attention to detail, is extremely pleasant and his timing is excellent. A true professional! I highly recommend this spot for business lunches or dinner, as well as family events.“

“Our waitress was wonderful especially knowing it was my daughter’s Sweet 16 birthday. She went above and beyond ! Wait time is ridiculous though . I tried to make reservations but they don’t do that so we took our chances and told 25-30 mins but we waited 55 mins . With that being said it wound up being worth the wait . We had a great time .“

“Seafood Speakeasy! This unassuming Fish Market’s best kept secret is that it operates a restaurant in the back of the marketplace with the freshest catch you’ll find anywhere! Truly so good they will have you hook, line and sinker! The Halibut is to die for and lobster bisque with generous lobster portions. Better yet, if you want your favorite fish cooked a certain way, they’ve got you covered! Blackened swordfish? No worries matey!The room is small, immaculate and intimate yet service is kind, friendly and expedient. Note there is an early dinner crowd of locals, so timing is key. Nonetheless, despite the humble setting Seafood Gourmet churns out the most delicious seafood around, rivaling the most discriminating seafood establishments you can think of. Set sail on a voyage worth taking!PS Did I mention it’s BYOB?!“

“Unique Korean eating experience. Buffet style restaurant where you also cook your meats and vegetables on the burners at your table. I did not like the food because I'm not much of a meat eater but the customer service was very good. This style of eating is for the more adventurous eater and is not for everyone.“

“I believe it's excellent! The all-you-can-eat option at a reasonable price allows you to sample a variety of dishes, despite the smaller plate sizes. This is beneficial as it enables you to try different foods before feeling full on a single item. However, a drawback is the 3.5% card fee charged after checking out.“

“Definitely a seafood lovers destination. The wait time can be long sometimes but its well worth it. I'd rather wait for excellent food than get mediocre food on demand. The staff is awesome and so are the owners. Its always a pleasure going there to eat. See you guys real soon. (Getting hungry)“

“WOW! Gio's hosted my daughter's bridal shower today. IT was phenomenal. The food, atmosphere, service, etc. Special shout out to Gio, Gina, Danni and everyone else who made our party pure perfection. I wish I had another celebratory occasion coming up to use them again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.“

“We had lunch on a Friday, the restaurant was quiet, but the atmosphere was warm our waiter was very professional, very pleasant. We ordered lunch with main course and dessert. The food was absolutely authentic, high end. My veal chop came with an assortment of mushrooms that were perfectly prepared,: flavorful, seasoned just right. My husband another meat dish from the menu, that he hereby declared truly delicious. We hadn't gone back to Cenzino in a long time, but may well be make it a more regular stop.The restaurant is elegant, pristinely clean. Such a nice time.“

“A wonderfully ambient cafe with a respectable-sized menu of various delectable offerings combined with friendly and efficient service, and central location, to make for an excellent choice for those looking for a fancy dairy restaurant.Vegetarian options: Good choice ?Dietary restrictions: Milchig, under the השגחה of the CRC.“

The drinks are perfectly made, the food is cooked to perfection, and the staff are super helpful and make this dining experience 10 times better. The staff are quick to attend you and are attentive. I would’ve gave this place 10 stars if i could.“

“Absolutely incredible! Customer service was immaculate and friendly. We had the grilled octopus over spinach, and the spinach itself was fantastic. And octopus grilled to perfection. The lobster roll. Stop it. Thats the best lobster roll I've had and I've lived in Rhode Island. Both the alfredo and the lobster roll had A LOT of lobster and beautiful flavor. 10/10.“

“This has got to be one of the best restaurants in New Jersey. I am not exaggerating when I say they have the most tender and delicious octopus I've ever had. All the food was amazing here. Duck empanadas, Spanish octopus and the squid ink paella - WOW! Everyone working here is super nice and has a passion for the great food they are serving up. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“At Fogo de Chao in Paramus, the meat selection is truly exceptional. From perfectly seasoned sirloin to mouthwatering lamb chops, every cut is expertly prepared and cooked to perfection. The servers skillfully carve the meats tableside, ensuring each guest receives their preferred doneness. The variety is impressive, catering to every carnivore's taste buds with options like tender filet mignon, juicy ribeye, and flavorful Beef ribs. Whether you're a steak aficionado or simply love indulging in high-quality meats, Fogo de Chao in Paramus is guaranteed to satisfy your cravings.“

“I was there last night 3/30 to have the Whiting and French fries. At first I was very disappointed when I realized they didn't have anymore of this special "pink sauce" that tastes amazing. But when I got in the car and tasted that fish, it was fresh, well-seasoned, and tasted just as good with or with out the sauce. I will definitely be returning.“

“Went for dinner and drinks with a friend. Made a reservation and they were ready for us when we arrived. Prompt and friendly service. Sam is just superb he made clear understanding about the menu which I appreciated. Good menu options. We ordered an app, 3 entrees and drinks and received quickly. Hummus, Mast-O-Moosir and Panir-Sabzi was awesome! Chicken Sultani and Shrimp Kebob were authentic in every bite and a good portion. Baklava and other desserts were generous. Excellent experience! Thank you Sam !!“

“Let me tell you the food is outstanding,amazing!! I got the steak with enchiladas and plantains so delicious! Has the greatest atmosphere. Servers and even the owner Introduced himself very nice. On Birthdays they will sing a song with a sparkling candle . They even have a very nice lady that will take a picture for memory's witch is a must get to take home comes framed and to remember a great night out with family and friends. I highly recommend this place cant wait to go back alot of fun !“

“My wife and I love Dante's. We came here for dinner on New Year's Eve without a reservation and they were happy to accommodate us on a very busy night. The food was all delicious and, tho a bit pricy came in great proportions, and the staff was great and attentive. Easily the best Italian restaurant in the neighborhood.“

“3 people eat raw fish and it's still too much. I made a reservation, but today I ordered assorted sashimi ($150) instead of tuna... with the sashimi served last... If you eat creamy kaibashira on top of potato pancakes as you instructed, will it taste like gnocchi? The rolls are also delicious.The spicy stew is packaged.The $100 menu is also new... 3 types of Tsugedashi instead of 9 + 1 bottle of soju. If two people come, it's great value for money.----It's always a delicious meal.We ordered Assorted Raw Fish A for 4 adults and 3 teenagers.The new shrimp paste is especially delicious. This was the first time I knew there was an option to eat sashimi first, but I just ate tsukedashi first.It's nice that the people who serve us are friendly and have been there since the restaurant opened.“

“This place has great food and is always busy whenever I go! I've tried a few of their dishes but my favorite is the mapo tofu. They also have vegetarian options including soup dumplings! What really sets them apart is their service. Everyone is truly SO friendly!“

“Lovely place atmosphere fantastic, service attentive and cordial makes you feel warm and welcomed. We had the calamari was wonderfully surprised ? ?? was served rings with not a single tentacles awesome! Then we had the thin pizza ? with pepperoni and sausage ? delicious ? ? ? ? . We will eat here again for sure. I highly recommend ?.“

“We had our baby shower at La Lanterna in October 2023. Joanne, the owner, was more than helpful with all of the preparations from beginning to end. We felt like one of her family. The food, the atmosphere, the service, and the attention to detail made our day a memory to be cherished always.❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Bardonia Oriental is consistently our favorite go-to place for Chinese food. The chicken is most often quite delicious and tender, regardless of the dish that it's placed with. I'm most often preferred chicken with broccoli however I had chicken with Chinese vegetables last night and found it to be absolutely scrumptious! The beef with snow peas is delicious as well. One of our dear friends is Chinese and she refuses to eat Chinese food anywhere but there if that's any indication of the quality of their food. The egg rolls can be hit or miss at times having so much grease they're impossible to consume and other times being so delicious I would eat multiples if I had them! There thick Chinese noodles are rarely greasy and always delicious especially with duck sauce. We prefer the mustard that comes in a container to the hot sauce in a package. I would not recommend requesting sauce on the side as I have done a times because somehow the chicken and broccoli become overdone. Overall, as I've said there isn't any other Chinese restaurant in Rockland County that has earned my respect and is much repeat business as Bardonia Oriental. I forgot to mention how much we enjoyed the crab with cream cheese appetizer! They are very good at following specific orders so if you like your vegetables al dente to preserve the nutrients and simply let them know how long you would like to cook it the vegetables. Otherwise the broccoli tends to be somewhat soggy. With a little bit of accommodation and finagling and won't improved consistency for the egg rolls, I would delightfully add the extra star all the way! Happy eating!Vegetarian options: Please read my review regarding the cooking of the vegetables. If you would like your vegetables to preserve maximum nutritional value, I would recommend requesting them to be a little hard. And definitely not mushy.“

“Great restaurant and atmosphere, the food was very delicious and to its perfection. Abel our waiter was so welcoming and very professional. He gave us options in regards to menu options and would highly recommend to anyone around the area. Will definetely come back for the food and drinks ?“

“When I tell you, me, and my party of 15, had a wonderful time, the music was good the food was out of this world. All of my party guesses had no complaints that was the best food I had in my life better than my mother food. Me and my friends are planning our next meet up at Shawnee’s lol. She was a wonderful host, her and her staff they accommodated my party to the maximum.“

“Our first time trying 103 Prime and we were pleasantly surprised. The food was very good, the service and ambience also was terrific! We split the excellent beet and arugula salad. My wife had the shrimp dish and I had a filet mignon that was cooked perfectly along with creamed spinach. The zeppoles topped off the meal“

“Had a really nice time here. The food was delicious, & the atmosphere and service were great. I had the shrimp kabob which was delicious & my husband had the ground beef kabob which was absolutely amazing. Our server Omid was attentive & friendly. You certainly won’t be disappointed if you go here.“

“Valentine's Day at Sanducci's. Had a great time. The food was fantastic, as always. The staff was very professional and cheerful. All of the other guests around us seemed to be having a great time as well. Couldn't ask for a better way to spend an important evening!!“
