“Amazing and tasty food!! Great service and great prices! High quality meats and chicken, all halal, with proper certificates!”

“Ordered via uber eats tonight . I've wanted to try for awhile (since I did a delivery for Feed the Frontlines) and I wasn't disappointed! We shared several items and they were all yummy! I will definitely order again.”

“We stopped here for a quick bite and ended up ordering way more because the food was that amazing! Everything was delicious and service was top tier! Highly highly highly recommend!”

“Lovely meal! I had a silky smooth Potato Truffle Soup, and a delicious Duck Breast that was perfectly prepared, as order. The Apple Cake was yummy and not overly sweet.
Would definitely go again when I'm in the area.”

“Great food. My sons first ramen. He really liked it.”

“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.”

“My first time trying them was amazing, my aunt, cousins along with myself did a coffee tasting there and everything was great!! I had the FFF (Triple F) with a HEC on brioche 🔥! Service was exceptional as well, definitely a comeback whenever I’m in NJ again”

“I’ve been over 5x in the past 5 months and they’ve never failed me. Staff and chefs are amazing. You must get the omakase (Lunch and dinner) or higher premium cuts because they source really really amazing stuff and you don’t want to miss out. The more basic common sushi is also great for more casual. And the omakase stuff that is truly the stand out ? high quality everything”

“Outrageous food, I had the veal chop and it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.”

“Absolutely excellent food. You will not be disappointed!”

“Salad House in Westwood is easily one of my go-to spots for a great, fresh meal. The food is consistently incredible — super fresh ingredients, generous portions, and everything just tastes clean and well put together. You can build your own salad or try one of their signature options, and either way, you’re walking out happy.

What really sets this place apart is the vibe. The owner, Jack, is always around and genuinely makes you feel welcome. He remembers faces, checks in on customers, and creates a real community feel. It’s the kind of personal touch you don’t get at most places anymore.

The restaurant itself is spotless — clean tables, organized counters, and everything runs smoothly, even during busy lunch hours. It’s clear the team takes pride in how the place operates.

Whether you’re eating in or grabbing something to go, Salad House is a solid choice. I’ve been a few times now and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend if you’re in or around Westwood!”

“Great service! Lots of options and if it’s too much like it is for me the gentleman in the front had plenty of recommendations. These photos is the Buffalo Mac n cheese which was so good and the chicken parm this for me was my favorite , and the steak with Chimichurri! Will for sure be back because there is so many options. Highly recommended”

“I just ordered from one of their locations and it was absolutely delicious. I will be ordering from them again.”

“Off course there is food is very awesome they are way of carrying the people very different its never forgetteble moment its always memorable chef James I’ll recommend my friends and relatives we hope we will meet very soon thanks to everyone again ...”

“Very good bakery. Nice ambience.”

“I am a spoiled Delhiite used to having all the delicious cuisines in Delhi. I can say.. Turmeric spoiled me in New Jersey now. Great Food Great Ambience. Food so close to home. Definitely a must try place.”

“Absolutely amazing! Go there!”

“Enjoyed the many different Tapas we tried out 😋”

“Amazing experience every time! White Maple Cafe offers a perfect blend of cozy atmosphere, delicious food, and outstanding service. The menu has a variety of options, all made with fresh ingredients and presented beautifully. The coffee is top-notch, and the pastries are always a treat. The staff is friendly, attentive, and goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Whether it’s for a quick coffee or a leisurely brunch, White Maple Cafe never disappoints. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great cafe experience!”

“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.”

“Sushi lovers heaven! IYKYK. This not so secret spot dishes out the freshest cut ups and inventive sushi combinations and prime sashimi at HALF THE PRICE! You heard me! NO CAP! Be it dinner for two or a larger party, this is the place to go that won’t break the bank. As for quality and presentation: top scores all around! Service is super friendly, courteous and fast. And guess what? It’s BYOB! #winning However, it’s first come first serve and really fills up on the weekends, so plan accordingly. Decor is no great shakes but not what you are here for. So sit back and enjoy the food of the gods served at Masago. You will certainly return time and again! Guaranteed!

Parking: Best thing to do is park across the street in the open multi level parking garage

Kid-friendliness: They truly take care of the kids here.”

“We have been going to Felinas since 2019. Chef Joe, Frank, and the entire staff make us feel like family. We have many personal and professional occasions celebrated there and will continue to do so. Thank you, Felina Ridgewood”

“UPDATE: Theresa – Thank you for your response. We very much appreciated your heartfelt apology and you sending food over this weekend. Everything we had was delicious, and my granddaughter was very happy with her make-up birthday party! Everyone makes mistakes, and we thank you for rectifying the situation in such a polite and decent manner. I am updating my initial review as it is absolutely earned."”

“Amazing food order for the first time today and this will become my favorite spot 🍤🍣🍜😋😋😋😋😋”

“Just an overall great atmosphere! One or two more items on the menu would be nice; and the fried calamari were more like baby calamari. But overall a very nice place. Enjoyed the live band and great customer service.”

“Menu is varied and well executed. Service is prompt and courteous without hovering over the table. Seating is bistro style, so a little tight, but with just enough elbow room.”

“Had lunch with friends. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was good. Definitely will go back.”

“great old-school italian place. great food”

“The Best Food and Service 👍👍👍👍”

“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!”

“Excellent shrimp. The fish special today was very flavorful. And the grilled vegetables: delicious and nutritious!”

“Chip city is insane !! They are such a caring company to donate to the NYC Ronald McDonald house. I was honored to have tasted a cookie (or 2) and was blown away. Absolutely amazing love for their community. Thank you Chip City !”

“Hands down the best ice cream in Ridgewood. Taking the time to mix the toppings into the ice cream on the cold stone is such a bonus. Absolutely love this place.”

“This is me and my friends go to lunch spot when we want to hang out. the food is so good every time and the service is consistently amazing. Would highly recommend!!”

“My favorite Starbucks when I am in North Jersey. Very nice staff and great jazz soundtrack. My pit stop when I drive home to New York.”

“Wonderful food. Soup is amazing. Service is great and the menu is huge”

“Excellent customer service, courteous staff, and delicious food. We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. Everything we ordered was delicious and fresh. The staff was very attentive, efficient, and accommodating, even on a busy night. I will return with family and friends. Highly Recommend!”

“A nice little quaint mom and pop pho shop. The pho broth is different from the other bigger pho restaurant in the region and tastes just as good if not better. Parking is limited and a bit challenging. Need to be patient as the owner couple takes care of everything, from taking orders to cooking.”

“If you see a sign that says Tomo Sushi, it's the right place. I was confused because I came for Hama Korean, but I talked to the owner of the restaurant and she said it's Hama Korean. I almost went back home, but I am glad I asked the owner.

I absolutely loved food - especially bibimbap - at Hama Korean and so good.

The sign may say Tomo Sushi, but when I asked the restaurant owner, he said it was Hippo Korean. The owners are the same and the food tastes just as good ^^”

“I treat my kids to this place every weekend as a family tradition. We live in Williamsburg Brooklyn and we feel it's worth the trip. We also bring a few days worth home with us

Kid-friendliness: Pretty much everything”

“Just saw Jaime ordering lunch from #Ridgewoodcycle and dinner! Said best crab cakes ever! You can still order dinner.

“All a great experience, awesome service, and the food…FUHGEDDABOUTDIT!!”

“Outstanding food and courteous service. Pretty much a take-out only restaurant. The soup, dumplings and egg rolls are the best. Sherry is a wonderful and caring person.

Parking: easy parking”

“Delicious, fast service, healthy I keep going back for more”

“Wow this lady can bake! I have know her for a few years now but didn't really know about her baking till recently. I thought I would be nice and supportive and buy a cake. BAM! Best cake I ever eat! Now I am trying to think up excuses to buy another.”

“It is with a full stomach and heart that I am able to publicly share how wonderful Blu Sushi is. Not only is the fish the freshest, but it run by welcoming and friendly staff, chefs and owners. It is not often that you find a restaurant without any criticisms, but then I found Blu. The dining and take-out experiences are how all food establishments should be run. The staff are clearly happy and supported which makes it, without question, a smaller establishment that I am happy to patronize. If you are reading this and considering ordering or not, just do it. You will not be disappointed with the high quality for a great price . Thank you Blu, for the amazing food and homey feel :)”

“Tried the USR location this morning as it's located around the corner from my office. Front staff was friendly, attentive, and helpful with assisting me to navigate options as a first time visitor. There was no line and I quickly received my to-go order. The ham, egg, and cheese croissant was delicious- fluffy and flaky, not at all greasy, and the perfect cheese pull. Can't wait to return to try desserts and coffee!”

“This specific hagen daz location is a favorite of mine and my kids. The owner (i believe) is just super friendly and genuine. He knows/remembers my kids favorite and it reminds me of how old school ice cream parlors used to be.”

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍”

“Best cafe and pastry shop ever.”

“We had the pleasure of meeting Emma this evening for our drink order. She is just lovely & so customer oriented & the Queen of making the best black tea lemonade I have ever had!! Kudos Emma! Keep up the good work!!”

“I e cream is great, nice building and atmosphere, rude pretentious staff. I came with a 2 year old, she needed a diaper change, they told me the restrooms were closed to customers and only for staff. I got my little girl her ice cream and a guy who appeared to be a manager told us to get out because they dont allow indoor seating. it's a shame because the ice cream is great and it's a great location”

“Luis is a great friendly server. He’s running the front while his dad is cooking in the kitchen. I’m a picky eater. I’m sorry to tell him that the leak soup is a little salty. He brought it back and made me another one right away. Perfectly seasoned, creamy and comforting. He also explained the history of speakeasy to me. Such a fun dining experience. It checked out more info about the restaurant: nothing bringing people together like good food:)”

“Best pizza I’ve had in years ! Great soups and the Philly cheesesteak Is amazing ! I never even liked it until I tried it here and now it’s all I want to order. Owner / host Ken keeps the place spotless”

“I like donkin donuts. They have great coffee, hot and cold, even ice drinks or steaming hot. They pastries are always fresh, not hard. I like the warm sandwiches they make. Whats good about it is if I went to Japan they would make the same like they do here in New Jersey. I went to the one in Hungary in the 90's it was a fun experience.”

“The food was prepared beautifully! The servets were helpful and courteous. All needs were met. There were a bunch of kids (customers)just being loud as usual.”

“Line is worth the wait!

The line moves fairly quick and the pastries and bread is so worth the wait. Everything tastes so fresh, and there's a small seating area in the back which is beautifully decorated.”

“This place is part of the Brooklyn Grimaldi family. The pizza is exquisite, lightly salted fresh mozzarella, the tomato sauce a balance of sweet and tart and the crust is airy and sweet. A flavor explosion in your mouth. Hackensack NJ is lucky to have them”

“Amazing place, owned by amazing people. I have been coming here for years. The bubble tea is the best I have ever had. Try their lychee fruit tea and their mango fruit tea. It’s fresh and yum. They just started catering as well! Needless to say highly highly recommend! Nothing but good things to say!!!”

“The food is incredible everytime I am in town all I want to do is go eat there”

“We stopped in to try this place out. The person working was very nice and friendly. He helped guide us a little. I really enjoyed my banana smoothie and my daughters got a strawberry slushy style drink that they keep asking for. We will return for sure. Place was spacious and clean!”

“The best by far in Ridgewood. Big meaty sandwiches, awesome selection of side salads. great meatballs, meatloaf ect ect. Boyland's soda.”

“I lived in Ridgewood and grew up on Wilkes potato salad. I moved to the Midwest in 1987 where they do not know what a true deli is.
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!”

“Very good Korean Chicken dinner. My favorite. Plan to wait. Can be busy but that’s because it’s so good”

“Great food and service! we had lobster rolls and shared an order of clay strip and fries! was as good as being down the shore. in the past we have had burgers sitting outside with our dogs. the owner would always bring a big bowl of water for them. oh and delicious hand scooped milk shakes! go you won't be sorry.”

“Ridgewood has a lot of ice cream but this is the first DQ. Located downtown by movie theater, it has nice amount of seating and a unisex bathroom. Well staffed. Unfortunately no parking lot per se, se be prepared to park on the street or a couple blocks away at Stop & Shop.”

“Awesome!!! Fantastic sandwich!!!!”

“Stopped in a few days ago. We ordered the hummus platter to start…. Delicious. Our family of 4 ordered general Tao’s cauliflower which was unbelievably great. The caulifornia bowl was awesome and the kale salad perfect. My husband ate a beyond burger which was what we expected it to be. The fries that came with it were great. All in all a treat from start to finish.”

“Went for Valentine's Day and was pleasantly surprised that there was a special menu but also regular menu was also available. We chose the special menu which was very reasonably priced at $90 for two with options for each course. Started with burrata caprese. Nice size portion and cheese very good but tomatoes were not that flavorful. (Other option was fried zucchini) Next was Caesar salad- tasty and not overdressed (other option was garden salad) Next was main dish. I had Branzino with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Delicious and enough for 2 meals. Husband had scallops with risotto which he enjoyed. There were 4 choices for entrees. Dessert was a medley of sweets. The churro was the best of the group. Coffee was included. Atmosphere was nice. Servers very pleasant. We had an 8 pm reservation and were seated immediately and were not rushed. Nice amount of time between courses Overall an excellent meal.”
