“Honestly one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Not only were the ingredients fresh, but the preparation was nothing short of perfect. Great atmosphere & vibe. Will definitely be returning very soon.“

“Update: Unfortunately I have to deduct a star because I ordered the cilantro marinated chicken breast with angel hair and the chicken was hard and dry and the pasta was mushy and completely bland and unseasoned.

My first time ordering from here and the food was really good. I ordered a breakfast sandwich that was so good that I ordered dinner from there that same night. Both arrived hot and fresh. The only thing is that I thought the chicken sandwich came with salad (as pictured) but it came with fries. Either way everything was really good. They also have one of the best chai lattes I’ve tried in the city.“

“I have been coming to Munno’s for over 22 years. I have never had better penne vodka and I travel extensively gobbling up food in different states and in Europe. The staff is always friendly and willing to take an order for a tray of penne vodka to be ready for us the same day. My family is now obsessed with Munno’s as well!“

“Quality establishment with style …. Recommended A++“

“just ate at the burger shop, great burgers, delicious fries and wonderful service! would definitely eat there again!“

“I recently visited the Pancake Factory and had the pleasure of being served by J. From the moment I walked in, J's warm and welcoming demeanor made me feel right at home. They were incredibly attentive, ensuring my experience was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. J's knowledge of the menu was impressive—they provided excellent recommendations, which turned out to be absolutely delicious. The pancakes were fantastic, but it was J's exceptional service that truly made my visit memorable. Their professionalism, friendliness, and ability to anticipate needs were outstanding. If you're looking for top-notch service and a great dining experience, ask for J—you won't be disappointed!🥰“

“I really liked the food that I got here. When we went, the hotpot stuff was not available so the owner just told us to order off the menu. He reco'ed the gamjatang and it was really good. The meat was so soft and it slid right off. I particularly liked the veggies in there. I also got the bibim guksu (spicy cold noodles). I told the owner I wanted naemyeon so he recommended the bibim guksu. It was really flavourful. Also - who can say no to unlimited kimchi! Highly reco this place. The portions were great for really good prices. And the owner was very nice!“

“Ten of us arrived at Waterside Restaurant and Caterers to celebrate Nina’s birthday. Located at 7800 B River Rd, North Bergen NJ 07047, we pulled up in front and valet parking made everything simple and stress-free. Right from the outside, the restaurant gave off an upscale and elegant vibe.

Our dining experience. The décor was modern and stylish, some tables with linen-draped and low lighting that created a warm, inviting atmosphere. Some seating was indoors or outdoors, and the outdoor seating offered a beautiful waterfront view that made the evening feel even more special. One of the best surprises was the DJ. who played some of my favorite jazzy house tracks, which gave our dinner great energy.

The service was excellent — attentive without being overbearing. Our server knew the menu well and gave spot-on recommendations for appetizers and dinner.

Menu Highlights For our appetizer, it was fresh Gulf Shrimp “Al Ajillo” which is roasted garlic and chili infused olive oil. When brought to the table it was bubbling hot in a small cast iron pan which Lauro and I shared. The other people with us had a variety of choices.

Greek style brick chicken with Baby zucchini, fingerling potatoes, infused olive oil, candied lemon. I thought it would have been half chicken but didn’t realize it was Cornish hens. It was good, but slightly overcooked. The fingerling potatoes were perfect as well as the infused olive oil with roasted garlic and baby carrots.

Homemade Lasagna Alla Bolognese was Beef Bolognese, bechamel, fresh mozzarella, Parmigiano. Lauro said he enjoyed it very much because it had flavor and cooked perfectly. The pasta and mozzarella along with the bechamel sauce was delicious.

Filet Mignon à la Carte Shannel’s choice of the filet mignon proved to be a highlight of the evening. Expertly prepared and elegantly plated, the dish was both a culinary and visual triumph. Each bite delivered rich, tender flavor that she thoroughly enjoyed, while the presentation elevated the experience—transforming the plate into a work of art. However, she noted that the mashed potatoes had no flavor at all and seasoning seemed to be forgotten.

The birthday girl, Nina Pan Roasted Salmon. A beautifully executed dish that balances elegance with comfort. The salmon was perfectly pan-roasted—crisp on the outside, tender and flaky within. It rested atop a bed of crushed cannellini beans and escarole, which added a creamy, earthy depth. A thoughtful composition that delivers both flavor and finesse.

Overall Impression and rating. ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5. Waterside Restaurant and Caterers nail the balance of fine dining and a vibrant nightlife vibe. Between the valet, the elegant setting, the creative menu, and the music, everything came together for a truly memorable night. It’s a little pricey, and not worth what they charge therefore, check their website first. It’s the perfect spot for a date, a celebration, or even just treating yourself. Stop by either by yourself or a date and enjoy your evening. The general consensuses of the food was prepared well but lacked seasoning.“

“We found this hard rock Yankee Stadium café much better than the one in Times Square! The waitress was super nice, the burgers were very good and the person who served us at the shop was really cool. It was our last meal before leaving for the airport to return to France so thank you to the whole Hard Rock Café stadium team, you are great!

Kid-friendliness: Yes, great for children with a menu adapted to them!“

“A wonderful high-class restaurant with a sophisticated ambiance. The food earns a solid 4-star rating for its taste, offering fair prices for the quality provided. Their crafted beer is exceptional, boasting a great taste that complements the dining experience perfectly.“

“Had to leave a review - excellent meal! Burger was homemade and not a thawed out patty from a food supply box - even the tomato was freshly cut and juicy. The apple pie and coffee were perfect. My five-year old loved her burger and fries! Also - great attention to little ones here - very sweet staff. Would absolutely eat here again with my family.“

“I know it’s been around but still a favorite ❤️Very trendy & modern. It’s valet service to the ambiance to the food music wait and drinks services. Pricey but worth it..we enjoyed paying for this level of service....The woman that manages the beautiful bathroom got my tip lol.Ty..so beautiful“

“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“This place is so clean. You wouldn't expect it when you first walk in, but there's no dust balls or cobwebs or anything on the antiques on the walls. So impressive. The staff and owners are so polite and professional, I feel like I could do a full page review on them alone. Our waitress Lisa was a pure delight. A breath of fresh air. If you enter through the bar you get to have a "Goodfellas" moment as you pass through the kitchen to the dining room and get to greet the chef. Finally, the food. It was awesome. I had the steak cooked medium and it came cooked medium..."WHAT!!".... I KNOW, who does that anymore. Cooking a steak to the temp you want it. Innovative. Oh, yeah, my wife had some did too that she thought was delicious. Anyway, it's a cash only restaurant so stop at the ATM before you head there for dinner. Go soon, you won't regret it.“

“Amazing steak. Great service.“

“great music venue with wide variety of acts.“

“This is the third time we have returned to Saint Eves since the new owner has taken over. The quality of the food is greatly improved. It seems to get better every time we go. We were with guests this time and they just love their food. We were not rushed. We were welcomed the whole evening was a pleasure. I recommend this for a date night or special occasion.“

“New Terry’s Cozy Corner offers a delightful, homey dining experience that truly lives up to its name. The food is simple yet delicious, with standout breakfast options like their famous Taylor ham, egg, and cheese on a roll, perfectly cooked omelets, and fluffy pancakes. The home fries are a crowd favorite, crispy and well-seasoned. If you're a fan of hearty, classic breakfast fare, this is the place to be. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, thanks to its family-owned operation, where the staff is known for being friendly and attentive. The diner serves fresh coffee that pairs wonderfully with any meal, making it a perfect spot for a cozy morning start. With affordable prices, generous portions, and consistently tasty food, it's no wonder locals come back regularly. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a relaxed breakfast, New Terry’s Cozy Corner is a must-visit for anyone looking for a comforting and satisfying meal“

“The menu is well composed with a great selection to suit every palate. Highly recommend the shrimp and crispy polenta. We ordered mains from both the regular menu and the specials- outstanding all around. Dessert menu is fun with fruity options. Service was tops and ambience simple but sophisticated.“

“Good food, every things good.“

“First time in Row House, NYC Sunday Jazz Brunch and YOU have to go! It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. The lobster empanadas, Asian Wings and short rib sandwich are to die for. The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. Staff made us feel welcomed, extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations.“
