From Scratch 44 East Ridgewood Avenue, Ridgewood Italian • $$

“My wife and I recently celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary at From Scratch, coinciding with the restaurant’s 10th anniversary, and it was an unforgettable evening that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space, the staff made us feel like honored guests, with a special nod to the milestone celebrations—both ours and theirs. The atmosphere buzzed with a joyful energy, perfectly balancing sophistication and comfort, as if the restaurant itself was toasting a decade of culinary excellence. The four-course tasting menu was a masterclass in flavor and creativity, each dish showcasing the kitchen’s dedication to crafting everything from scratch. I began with the beef tartare, a delicate yet bold starter. It set the tone for what was to come: precision and passion in every bite. My wife got the eggplant caponata for her first course, a vibrant dish that was both rustic and refined. It was a testament to how From Scratch elevates humble ingredients into something extraordinary. The handmade raviolis were an absolute highlight, each delicate parcel bursting with a silky ricotta filling. The pasta was so tender it practically melted, a labor of love that spoke to the restaurant’s name and ethos. We couldn’t stop raving about the texture—perfectly al dente, yet impossibly light. The mint added a hint of freshness to the dish, that I was originally hesitant about, but I’m happy I gave it a go! For the main courses, my wife got the lamb. Perfectly cooked to a rosy pink, it was fall-apart tender, and had a perfect crust on the outside. The dish was hearty yet elegant. Equally stunning were the scallops, seared to golden perfection with a buttery, caramelized crust. They sat around a small bed of caviar with purple mashed potatoes. Each bite was a harmonious balance of sea and earth. The meal concluded with a ricotta dessert that was nothing short of divine. The creamy, cloud-like ricotta mousse was paired with a coulis with ginger dough crumbs. It was the perfect sweet note to end the evening, light yet indulgent, with flavors that lingered long after the last spoonful. From Scratch isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of craft, community, and unforgettable moments. For our anniversary, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to mark the occasion, and we’re already looking forward to returning to see what the next decade brings for this culinary gem. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a dining experience that’s as heartfelt as it is delicious!”

“First time I had Indian food was a few years ago in NC, and I was NOT impressed. We were up visiting my sister in Ridgewood and we went out for fathers day dinner at Tabla. We ordered a bunch of different appetizers and entrees and we shared them all. I was absolutely impressed. I totally enjoyed EVERY item. I especially liked the curry fish with coconut milk. The service was exceptional and very friendly, it was an entirely enjoyable experience. I heartily recommend this Indian Restaurant in Ridgewood, NJ.”

“I had such a lovely experience at Blue Ridge! One of the owners, Denisse, took care of me and was incredibly warm and welcoming. She shared that it’s a family-owned business, which makes the atmosphere feel even more special.

I tried the iced latte, made with excellent-quality coffee, as well as the chocolate chip banana muffin and the chocolate cake. Both were absolutely delicious, gluten-free, and baked by Denisse herself. The shop is spotless, conveniently located, and clearly run with a lot of care. I highly recommend it!”

“i’ve been going here for around four years at this point, and I need to give it more credit. This small and very cozy restaurant is absolutely amazing food wise literally everything’s good my personal favorite being the steamed vegetable Gyoza as it is literally the best I have found in all of New Jersey. As well as their Tonkatsu, Katsu, which I just want to highlight. The Katsu is amazing and this is the most customizable Ramen joint I’ve ever been to. I’m astonished that this place isn’t filled to the brim every day.”

But what really stood out, was the service. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and quick without ever feeling rushed. They made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. I would like to acknowledge the service of Ashley. She was so nice and really made us know that we didn’t make a mistake going here.

The atmosphere is also a big plus! Warm, clean, and relaxing, with a modern touch that makes it perfect for a casual lunch or a nice dinner out. You can tell they put care into creating an inviting dining environment.

Overall, Masago Sushi delivers great food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to everyone!”

“TC’s Little Taste of Saigon was an absolute five-star experience from start to finish.

My wife and I stopped in and were blown away by both the food and the warmth of the place. We ordered the pho with medium rare meat, spring rolls, and the chicken stir fry — and every single dish delivered.

The pho broth deserves special mention. You can immediately tell it’s made with care and time. Rich, aromatic, and deeply flavorful without being heavy — the kind of broth that keeps you going back for “just one more spoonful” until suddenly the bowl is empty. The medium rare beef was tender and perfect, and the balance of herbs and freshness brought everything together beautifully.

The chicken stir fry was equally impressive. The layers of flavor really stood out — savory, slightly sweet, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right. It felt thoughtful, not rushed, and you could taste the care in every bite.

The spring rolls were fresh, crisp, and a perfect start to the meal.

Beyond the food, this is exactly the kind of mom-and-pop place you hope to find. Warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly service that makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and it shows.

Delicious food, wonderful service, and a comfortable, authentic atmosphere. Can’t say enough great things about the experience — we’ll absolutely be back.”

Market Plate 44 Godwin Avenue, Ridgewood American • $$$

“We have been shopping here as our main grocery store pretty much since it opened. While it is a smaller Whole Foods, it tends to have a good stock of a good variety of items, both fresh and packaged. It is generally clean (with one exception, see below) and most of the staff are very friendly and helpful. There is an Amazon Locker here, so you can get your Amazon packages delivered to this locker, do your shopping, and then pick up your package all in one trip. There are a two issues I very much wish they would fix. For one thing, the restrooms are consistently not clean. This is a suburban store and doesn't get the volume of customers that an NYC store gets, but they don't seem to be able to keep the restrooms in good order. My other issue has to do with what they choose to stock in a couple of categories. The first is orange juice. I always look for organic orange juice not in a clear container (so as not to compromise Vitamin C). I just want organic orange juice in an opaque container the way it comes -- not pulp-free, not extra-pulp, not with Vitamin D added, etc. They never stock this. My other stocking issue has to do with ice cream. They have all kinds of interesting flavors, several kinds of dairy-free options, etc. but I just want a pint of premium, organic vanilla ice cream, straight up. This can sometimes be found but often they don't have it on the shelf even though they carry all kinds of great brands that would offer it. If only this store remedied these two issues, they'd be five stars for sure!”

Last year I had the opportunity to pass through Ridgewood, buying 4 lb of potato salad to take home! It is absolutely addictive!
If you haven't already, I would put your recipe in fort Knox and closely guard it! It's that good!”

Starbucks Coffee Company 193 East Ridgewood Avenue, Ridgewood Coffee Shops • $

“I just had the best experience at this Starbucks! So, I by accident order my latte from the Ridgewood location, while at a different Starbucks 🤣🤣🤣. Decided that I will try to get it later if it’s still there. I got to Ridgewood Starbucks at least an hour later, at which point my drink wasn’t there, which is understandable and I wouldn’t even complain. However, I still asked, out of curiosity, what is done with the drinks which are not picked up on time, and the wonderful barista said “Katerina? We disposed of it because it was cold” and made me a new drink at no cost. He even remembered my original order. This was amazing! Super service! Thank you!”

The restaurant was busy with a party outside, but they attended to us in a super way. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great. It was just very very cold inside will return again we had salmon and the chicken and bananas Foster for dessert as well as sour sop sorbet which was amazing. Homemade”

Masago Sushi (Ridgewood) 22 South Broad Street, Ridgewood Japanese • $$

“I had an amazing experience at Masago Sushi in Ridgewood, NJ. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The prices are also such a big factor since its so low for such big portions. But what really stood out, was the service. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and quick without ever feeling rushed. They made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. I would like to acknowledge the service of Ashley. She was so nice and really made us know that we didn’t make a mistake going here.

The atmosphere is also a big plus! Warm, clean, and relaxing, with a modern touch that makes it perfect for a casual lunch or a nice dinner out. You can tell they put care into creating an inviting dining environment.

Overall, Masago Sushi delivers great food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to everyone!”

“First time I had Indian food was a few years ago in NC, and I was NOT impressed. We were up visiting my sister in Ridgewood and we went out for fathers day dinner at Tabla. We ordered a bunch of different appetizers and entrees and we shared them all. I was absolutely impressed. I totally enjoyed EVERY item. I especially liked the curry fish with coconut milk. The service was exceptional and very friendly, it was an entirely enjoyable experience. I heartily recommend this Indian Restaurant in Ridgewood, NJ.”

“i’ve been going here for around four years at this point, and I need to give it more credit. This small and very cozy restaurant is absolutely amazing food wise literally everything’s good my personal favorite being the steamed vegetable Gyoza as it is literally the best I have found in all of New Jersey. As well as their Tonkatsu, Katsu, which I just want to highlight. The Katsu is amazing and this is the most customizable Ramen joint I’ve ever been to. I’m astonished that this place isn’t filled to the brim every day.”

“We made a reservation at Stella Artisan and I had looked at the reviews. Even though the reviews were good, it was not listed as one of Ridgewood's top 10. We arrived and Louis, our server, was so friendly and helpful. The service was great and the food was outstanding. We have eaten in many Ridgewood restaurants and found many expensive and just ok. Stella Artisan has a unique menu and very good food. The lobster tacos were outstanding and the entrees were also outstanding. We were six people and everyone enjoyed their meal. They were also very good with substituting things. I had mentioned that I was gluten free, and Louis came over to tell me the gluten ingredients in the dish I ordered. It is my hope that this restaurant remains as it is a great addition to Ridgewood.”

Just a place worth walking to especially if you’re already in town and paid for parking in the vicinity. Enjoy the options cuz there’s just so many to choose from!
