“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“Yemeni Restaurant hit all the right spots — full 5 stars! The food was outstanding: tender, perfectly spiced mandi chicken, rich saltah stew, fresh haneeth lamb, and the best honey-drizzled malawah bread. Everything tasted homemade and full of flavor.
Service was warm and quick — friendly staff who explained the dishes and kept everything flowing smoothly. Atmosphere is cozy and casual: simple décor with welcoming vibes, great for a relaxed meal.
Perfect authentic Yemeni spot — great value and generous portions. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Middle Eastern comfort food in the city!“

“The best Turkish food in the area as all other Turkish places focus on cheap, fast food. Cinar has the best food and quality and it tastes like fresh home made food. Everything in the menu is delicious. Now they have a great app for easy ordering. The service is always good there with warmth and kindness. This place is a true gem.“

“Dodona is a gem! The food is excellent authentic home made Albanian (Balkan) cuisine. Everything from burek to chevapi is perfect and the capuccino and deserts are made to match! Service (Lab) excellent and very friendly. If you are crossing the GW bridge it’s worth a detour.
We’ll be back!!“

“Very tasty food, great service, cozy atmosphere.
It's BYOB but the waitress (Elif i think) made sure to bring all we needed for the wine and checked on us multiple times throughout the night to make sure we were good.
A great representation of Mediterranean food.
Will definitely be back!“

“We either ordered the wrong things or it was an off night for this restaurant because our experience was nothing like what other reviewers say. Restaurant was so noisy that we had to shout to our table companions all evening. The imam bayaldi was oversalted and underflavored and pine nuts doled out as if they were diamonds. The shrimp was hard, dry, overcooked, oversalted and flavorless sitting on a bed of gloppy watery tomatoes. Half the lamb kabobs were ok and half were nothing but gristle. Servers were very pleasant, and helpful with wine selection but the wait for our dishes seemed interminable. What was good -- very good --the rice with the lamb kabobs, the rice pudding and the coffee. But too much money for bad (sorry, but that's what it was) food. As I said, maybe we ordered the wrong dishes or maybe it was just an off night.“

“Fantastic Doner, the cuisine is exceptional.“

“This establishment has lost nothing in the transition from Piermont to Northvale, nor has it lost anything in the transition from father to son. This is still one of the greatest Tapas and Spanish/Italian style eateries to rival even NYC. Keep the tradition going and keep up the fantastic service. Cheers.“

“The interior design is absolutely stunning! Very modern and chic. There are a decent amount of options to choose from the menu. Mocktail presentations are so cool and pretty, and the food portions are pretty good. Appetizers and main dishes are delicious! This place has very nice seating areas and cute spots to take pictures. Only note I have is the waiting time to order and receive the food. However, this was such a cool experience for a bachelorette dinner celebration, I do recommend this place.“
