“My friend ordered from here takeout while I was with her. I tried a whole bunch of different foods she bought for like $55 worth. They were all very good from 5 different dishes I tried.Parking: Maybe 7 spots of parking but that's good enough. I think there are spots across the street too. I wasn't paying that much attention because it was a spontaneous visit.“
“Serves great Korean-Chinese food. The food is great. We got the jjajangmyun, jjambbong, tangsooyook and other dishes and it was all great. Lunch menu is really affordable and you get so much food. Way better than spending $15-20 at Panera lol“
“My 1st time having Korean fried chicken. Been wanting to have it for a long time. Came across this gem and I'm a fan.Chicken is fried fresh to order so please be patient. I ordered the 5pc Golden original just so I can taste the overall flavor. Nicely fried to a crispy and juicy texture. The guy at the register Kim bought me over a side of their Secret Sauce to try it. Not too sweet or spicy but it's sticky. The 1st time having pickled daikon also. Very refreshing and a palate cleanser. Love it“
“First time at Sushi Story - and it is amazing! I went in for lunch and asked the server for recommendations. After my ginger salad, she brought me Tuna Tataki, which was perfectly prepared and had a touch of smokiness. I couldn’t decide between Seared Salmon Sushi or the River Roll, so I ordered both. It was the best decision ever! The salmon was freshly prepared and melted in my mouth. The Spicy Tuna was delicious and had just a touch of kick, which complimented the richness of the fish. All dishes were fresh, perfectly prepared, and beautifully presented. The service was friendly, helpful, and courteous, by both the server and the chef, who checked on my satisfaction with the meal. The restaurant is small, with seven tables, and has a bustling take-out service. This is one place not to miss!Kid-friendliness: Welcoming to all agesWheelchair accessibility: Small facility, but easy access for people with limited mobility.“
“First of all, the ingredients were so fresh and the food was all delicious!!! They kept refilling the broth, so I ate delicious food without any inconvenience ? The mango sorbet they gave me at the end was the best dessert ever ? The staff and owner were so friendly that I couldn't help but leave a review ? I think I'll stop by every time I go to New Jersey!“
“This cozy spot stole our hearts with its chill vibes, perfect for both date nights and gatherings with friends. ✨ The music sets the mood, and the bar seems like the place to be next time for an even livelier atmosphere.Food: The Kalifornia, Shrimp hand rolls, and Fish + Chips Takos were absolute winners - fresh, flavorful, and left us wanting more. The pork dumplings were decent, but we've had better. The Oyster Mushrooms, although tasty, were a bit heavy on the batter.Drinks : The Suntory beer was refreshing, but the Paradise Lost stole the show - a tropical explosion that balanced sweet, smoky, and spicy notes perfectly. Highly recommend it!Overall, a charming spot with great potential. We'll definitely be back to explore the menu and bar scene further!“
“The quality (of the food), atmosphere (elegant and modern), and service of this restaurant are top notch. Step into this place and it’s as you’re transported to a restaurant at a fancy Seoul neighborhood. Dinner for 3 cost us $150 which was great value given the quality, atmosphere and service provided. For example, one of our dish was grilled clams and we were blown away by their size. They were gigantic, abundant and FRESH! The patrons were all locals and some families. Will definitely return.Parking: The restaurant has a free parking lot. There's also paid/unpaid (depending on the day/time) street parking, right in front of the restaurant.“
“The best chicken wings!! The soy garlic wings was omg delicious. The boneless wings were amazingly tender and crispy. The only problem is that it gives me a good food coma Everytime after I eat those wings. Forbidden rice is really good, good valuefor only $2.50“
“I love Anytime because the vibe is a bit more fancier than other regular pochas you would go to in Fort Lee or Palisades Park.The servers are always nice and attentive.The food is top notch.If you order the honey makgeolli (rice wine) the servers will slice up real honey and put it in your glass.“
“The 4.8 rating after 185 reviews made me question this restaurant. How could they have that high of a rating with such a large sample size. After going there I’m on the hunt to find those individuals that made this score not a perfect 5. Service was exceptional (especially when considering the normal pricing). Sushi quality was the best I’ve ever had in every food I ate (miso soup wasn’t too salty). Complimentary miso and a roll from the chef. There is not a single thing I could complain about and I look forward to giving this establishment as much business as possible.“
“Love this little gem of a place I found! Their dumpling soup is 5 stars. The dumplings are handmade, delicious and humongous! The broth is SOOOO good. I love how they sell you their handmade frozen dumplings for a great price. Just bought some today! This is going to be my new fav go to!“
“These wings are delicious and I was very impressed... Usually when I bring wings home from any other spot, they're soggy. But this wasn't the case and after about 45 minutes of driving I came home and they were all crispy and fresh and the sauces were great too.... I enjoyed every last one of them....“
“Delicious! Stumbled upon this place when I was searching for a quick bite. I ordered delivery and the food came very quickly. I was pleasantly surprised how big and hefty the bowls were! We got the bulgogi rice bowl and a make your own bowl with fried chicken. Both had generous heaping portions of meat. I would say my appetite is fairly large and I couldn't even finish half of my bowl! The bulgogi was tender and juicy, and the vegetables that came with my bowl were delicious. The make your own bowl was also phenomenal! The cucumber kimchi and pickled turnips were some of my favorites. Definitely adding this place to my regular rotation of meals and I can't wait to have it again!“
“We were randomly in the area running some errands and we found this little gem! We stopped by for a late lunch. We got the Bulgogi kimbap, fried chicken, and the royal rice cakes. Our little one appreciated the Dino nuggies. Haha Everything was delish. We'll be back!“
“I normally write reviews for the readers, but today, this review is directed to the owner. Your fried chicken is worth the trouble of finding parking. I had the 10pc bloom drumsticks half w/Soy Garlic and the other half in S.O.S. Korean Spicy. I would even go as far as saying any of the sauces are worth a parking ticket. I was also super impressed with the size of the drumsticks! I was full after just 4, and thankfully, otherwise I would have been tempted to eat my napkin just to relish the flavor. I'm also grateful I arrived with family, since they ordered additional items, like the bloom wings, truffle fries, pork dumplings, and wasabi coleslaw. I got to try almost everything and nothing disappointed...not one thing. Thank you for offering to provide me my order as it became available for the members of my family vs. waiting for all of it to finish, that was very considerate of you and unexpected. I saw how polite you were to everyone that entered to order and for pick-up. We waited a little less than 25 minutes for the order to be complete and considering the size of our order, that was impressively fast! I just want to add that I also noticed you sacrificed your kitchen space to provide extra room for your guest, hats off to you sir! The seating space at the entrance is ample, the decor is trendy, the food was amazing, your attitude was great and even the bathroom was clean. The next time I come, I'm shooting a video for you, you deserve it...plus, I need an excuse to come back.“
“I really liked this spot. We had the galbi jjim + nangmyin +bibimbab combo with a small size for two and it was the perfect portion for us (we probably eat less than average though). Galbi jjim and nangmyun have strong flavors which are to my liking, but my wife found them too salty for her. Side dishes are better than average imo. Atmosphere is decent, kinda reminds me of old school restaurants in korea. It is on east side of Fort Lee where it is bit less busy. If you like flavorful ggalbi jjim, i strongly recommend this place.“
“Our family's favorite korean chicken place to order from!! Try the cheesling flavor as I have not seen this available in other korean chicken places and it is finger lickin good. You will never experience this flavor in any regular American chicken places.Also the classic soy garlic flavor is savory and sweet.We can never decide which flavor to order so we go with a whole chicken half and half.Their portion is generous and their seasoning is just right. Friendly service and easy ordering.“
“A cute mom-and-pop roll house located in the main downtown area of Ridgefield Park. It is a true hidden gem for takeout and delivery! The owners here are very friendly and welcoming, offering heartfelt hospitality with every visit. With various roll options to choose from (my favorite/recommendation is Chloe roll, Volcano roll, Fire Fight roll, Dragon roll), they offer convenient service, and amazingly tasty beverages such as bubble tea & iced tea to enjoy with the food. Highly recommended for anyone looking to grab a quick bite or enjoy a fancy dinner :)“
“I ate the small soy sauce crab sauce and it was wow ㅠㅠ It was so delicious. It wasn't too salty and had a little bit of spiciness in the liver, so I didn't feel burdened at all when I ate the soup with rice and topped with crab sauce. It was so good that I'll post a review as soon as I eat it ?????? I highly recommend it.“
“There is nothing but good vibes coming here for food. The grannie is so helpful and attentive, would keep refilling the kimchi dish right as it’s finished and so sweet and kind. The staff are awesome, food is great! Definitely come here and try it. The price is absolutely fair too!“
“This is my favourite restaurant in New York. The service is amazing. I could have this for breakfast, lunch and dinner for my whole life. The owner gave me a free drink.I recommend this place because The food is amazing. Everyone is so nice. It makes my life so good. We had the pork Ramen, amazing , we also had the spicy chicken that was so flavourful and and the salmon poke bowl that so fresh,it tasted like heaven.Review by Rawly (12)“
“Sensational feeling as I take the first bite of this immaculate cuisine. One of my favorite childhood family restaurants - so many fond and inspirational memories here. I’ve developed my passion for culinary due to the level of deliciousness and manner within this franchise. Thank you for everything.“
“Great pocha in Pal Park. Love all.the photo ops they have within. The ambiance, food and service are excellent!! Been there many many times and our favorites are the hamburger steak and beef tartare(yookhoe 육회). Think they have the freshest yookhoe in town!Will be back again soon!!“
“Just discovered this gem right down the block from our office today! This will absolutely become a regular for us. I went with a vegan friend and sharing food with a vegan can be hit or miss. Today was a solid hit. She ordered the fried dumplings filled with kale and spinach. I wasn't jazzed about trying them until her eyes lit up and she said they were fantastic. She was not wrong. They crispy but still soft and the spinach and kale was amazingly tasty. To be honest I'm not really a fan of kale, but these were great. I would order them again on my own. She had the tofu bibimbap which she was quite happy with. I had the bulgogi bibimbap. The meat was deliciously marinated and it was fried well so that it didn't end up steamed. The egg was still runny in the middle but crisp on edges. The vegetables were fresh and still had body and crunch after they were cooked. The sauce was spicy but not so hot that it overpowered the dish. The people next to us were eating the ramen soup and the spicy friend chicken bowl and we both agreed we need to go back this week and try that! This place is such a delight. I haven't had Korean food this good in a long time, and to find it within walking distance of the office is the best! Try it! You won't be sorry.“
“We came in right when they opened on Sunday. No wait. When we left at around 1:30pm, there was a huge line waiting for tables.High quality, fresh meat cooked to your perfection.- Ribeye is a beautiful marble piece of meat and they even asked how you like it!- Small pork combo has pork cheeks, belly, and pork butt, ranking from fattest to leanest. They grill the meat with side veggies like onions and kimchi, which added unique flavors to the protein. In addition, the combo comes with 2 sides and you can choose among steamed egg custard, soybean paste stew, and kimchi pork stew. The size of these sides are tiny, but the flavor is ?.- Side dishes are a good combination of kimchi, radish, and salads! We asked for lettuce wraps for the meat as well. Everything is perfect.- They gave 3 pieces of pork skins on the house. It was cooked with pineapples and are very chewy. Great addition to the meal:)Would come again for their other dishes!“
“Easily the best sushi experience I’ve ever had and I will be returning. Servers were so attentive and also knowledgeable about everything I was being served. Great portions, flavors and everything was as fresh as can be. Came for lunch and will be returning for dinner with a bigger party.“
“This is an amazing Korean stew place. They don’t have a huge menu but the pork stew is divine. The broth is some of the best I’ve had and food was fast and steaming hot.Parking: It’s in a weird spot, you need to keep your eye open for the entrance off Grand St.“
“Sorry for the lack of photos for the review. This is my second time here and let me say it was better than the first time, the potato corn dog got bigger??!! Wings were fantastic and the tteokbokki was chewy and spicy. Please keep up the consistency for which koreans are amazing for.“
“I’m coming here for its handmade tofu but honestly that was the most disappointing dish we ordered. The tofu was very dense and firm, can’t really tell the difference between the three flavors. The other dishes are surprisingly good, especially love the bossam!“
“Amazing food here! ? while going to the American Dream mall and wanted to eat Korean food. We found this gem! The MUST TRY dish is the SEAFOOD PANCAKE! It's so delicious, crispy, and tasty! This is the best haemul pajeon (seafood pancake) I have never had in NJ. I could never make so crispy pancake at home! Their spicy squid on rice in a hot stone pot was so yummy! I hope this restaurant is closer to where I live!Parking: It's located on a bust street. I think there is no parking on site. We parked on a paid meter.“
“It was my first time here and the seafood kalguksu was so delicious. It's full of seafood, the broth is delicious, the servers are very friendly, and I highly recommend the soft tofu seafood kalguksu when you're craving something spicy. It's too bad I live far away and can't come often.“
“I couldn't take a picture because I was busy eating. The best raw ribs I've had since coming to the US! It's extremely delicious. People who like meat will like thicker meat. The meat is thick and soft, has a good chew and is full of juice. Not a single flaw. It's not a soju restaurant, it's a rib restaurant. Lastly, I enjoyed the clam sauna and ate kalguksu (noodle soup) in cool clam soup. It's been 7-8 years since I stopped eating kalguksu, cold noodles, and japchae to cut out carbohydrates, but this soup isn't one I can tolerate because it's low in carbohydrates. I ate all the delicious radish radish without any regrets. I promise to try yukhoe sometime soon. Photos were uploaded then. ?“
“This place is WONDERFUL. I came here with my son after spending the afternoon at Urban Air Adventure Park. We got two half box orders of boneless thighs (original crispy and soy garlic/sweet & spicy), fries, and water. The chicken took about 15-20 minutes to cook, but it was well worth the wait. My son (the pickiest eater in the world) LOVED the boneless thighs, and even the French fries. I thought everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flavors were all fantastic, with the soy garlic being my favorite. The fries were also some of the best fries I've ever had. Super crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The food also came with Cole slaw which was DELICIOUS, and I say this as someone who normally strays away from Cole slaw.Customer service was excellent. The woman at the front was very friendly and clear with describing the food. Their presentation was top notch also. The food was packaged beautifully and even the bag it came in was just really well designed. It was like opening a holiday gift of delicious food. I would highly recommend paying this place a visit, although you'll probably have to do take out since they have limited seating. That's probably the only downside I can think of, but they still deserve 5 stars overall“
“This is the first chicken restaurant I've been to since moving nearby, and it's so delicious! I ordered crispy chicken and soy sauce, and I'm very satisfied because it's not too spicy and doesn't smell like chicken! The owner was also friendly~ Highly recommended~“
“We ordered delivery. The wings tasted very good and I think I got more pieces than the stated number on the menu. Good price for how much we got!Only complaint is that there were no wing tips (my favorite part), all just drumettes. But overall I was satisfied.“
“HIDDEN GEM! This place is so good!! FYI, it's a self serve restaurant so you order and pay at cashier and they will call for your ticket when food is ready. The best part is NO TIPPING! It's a great business model for today's economy. My spicy galbi tang was super good. 4 thick chunky delicious pieces of galbi tang. It's thicker in person than my photos can capture. Each piece has the right amount of marbling that gives a delicious texture and mouth full of juicy meat. It comes with thin glass noodles and thick chunks of daikon. The seafood pancake is a MUST order. It's so thick, crispy and have large chunks of octopus. It's such a satisfying meal. The spicy pork with cabbage bimbimbap was delicious too. They have free self serve milk-like soup and it hits the spot on a winter rainy night. I'll definitely come back.“
“I stopped by here on a business trip. As expected, the soft tofu eaten in North America is more delicious than the soft tofu eaten in Korea. I ordered seafood soft tofu and stir-fried squid combo and both were delicious! It's provocative!“
“Due to circumstances, I can't go and eat there, so I've had Uber delivery for 3 days in a row now (trying various things). The quality of the food is incomparable to other restaurants. It's on a different level. Each and every sauce is made with care. They package it well. I had a question about the menu, so I called. When I did that, the female waiter (not Korean) was really kind! She explained it to me while shouting a little and said that she was sorry for yelling at the end because the store was too noisy. Even though she was busy, the waiter explained things so well! The food was great too!! I want to go and eat it warmly. I think it will taste better.“
“I came by with my friends around 7pm and there was only about one other group there. We ordered on the kiosk and sat down for our numbers to be called. I liked the self-service aspect of this place, it definitely made things more efficient. We all ordered a different dish and they all tasted great! The signature beef kooksoo (large) was very flavorful and a huge portion of noodles. My friend tried the galbi jjim and he said "fantastic/outstanding, I'd definitely eat again." My other friend tried the king rib jjampong and he said it had a delicious broth/noodles but the meat was alright (but still good overall). He felt that the "regular spicy" was the perfect amount of spicy. I definitely enjoyed the convenience of this spot and id definitely come back.“
“We dined at KARDEN for my sister and I’s birthday and it was an absolute delight! From the moment we stepped through the doors, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for our special evening. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was flawless, from their attentive service to their excellent recommendations. Each dish was a masterpiece and beautifully crafted. Everyone in our party enjoyed their meals to the very last bite. Overall, my birthday celebration was a memorable experience and I highly recommend. Thank you, KARDEN, for making my birthday so special!“
“Owner was so kind and giving. We walk in and he takes our order quick. The food comes and we eat and it was very good. Owner was so nice and he quickly gave us free radish and a whole free platter of fries. Both were very good. He then graciously gave us free water. Amazing.“
“This place has the best jok bal (pork feet) in Fort Lee/Cliffside Park.Also recommend their pork bone soup with potatoes - it's hearty and not too spicy, yet full of flavors. However it's not the best I've had.Price is fair and service is friendly. Plenty of parking in the plaza nearby. May need to wait on weekends.“
“Really good chicken. My kids were craving chicken and decided to try after seeing other good reviews. Chicken is crispy and juicy. My kids LOVED the soy garlic flavor and also just plain. Drum sticks were huge and very juicy. Friendly service and staff was really nice. Will definitely eat here again when the kids are craving chicken again. Thanks.“
“If I have to choose one Korean sushi/sashimi restaurant in NJ, then Bada Story Englewood Cliffs is the one. The staff are extremely well trained. The back of house staff knows a thing or two about culinary excellence. And the owner/executive chef has put together an awesome items in the menu.Bada Story’s dinner feast boasts the most extensive assortment of appetizing sashimi in the tristate area. No, it does not come cheap. But the quality of fish they bring out totally justifies the pricing. Even the side dishes (aka tskedashi) is consisted of noteworthy seafood items. Dessert - the seafood soup - is the only thing that’s disappointing, but you are probably 120% over your capacity by the time you get the soup. By the way, isn’t it funny that Koreans eat a bowl of rice and seafood soup for their dessert?Their lunch special is outstanding as well. Whenever I crave sashimi, but I don’t want to spend $250 for a meal, I go to Bada Story for their lunch special. Nicely priced, but not compromised in quality.When the warm drinking water is exceptionally tasty (aka seung-nyeung) you know you are at a well operated restaurant. Highly recommended.“
“The best pork cutlet restaurant. The best pork cutlet on the outside. I tried all of New Jersey looking for delicious pork cutlet. This is the best. I highly recommend it.Mulnaengmyeon is said to be a bit salty because it is made from pocha, but it was a bit salty to eat as food, so it was just that. The noodles were chewy and the soup had a thin ice.The boiled pork is perfectly moist and delicious. Highly recommended.The water ribs were truly disappointing. It was $45 for a small dish, but it felt like I was eating $45 bean sprouts. All I got were 10 pieces of marbled beef that looked like they were piled high on top.Inside is literally just a mountain of bean sprouts and nothing to eat.There are almost no other vegetables.Humanly speaking, that price is a waste of money. $45 is a rip-off.Still, I will go back to eat the pork cutlet stew.“
“Tl;dr great soup dishes, loads of meat, very small sitting area.Came here after a ski trip and was the perfect meal after a cold day. The sitting area was tiny and some dishes are takeout only but the soups they had available were delicious. Each dish comes with rice and it was loaded with meat.“
“The quality of the meat is pretty high. I have yet to try their cold buckwheat noodles. I've heard great things.Parking: The parking lot is tiny and shared with other businesses. During dinner hours, they only offer valet parking. It's the only negative I have.“
“Mom and Pop Korean restaurant that makes fresh kimchi in house. We ordered the Bim bop and the kimchi fried rice. Both tasted extremely delicious and very homey. The owner is very sweet and very hospitable. If anybody is looking for authentic Korean food, this is the place to go.“
“A dependable spot for a quick bite of lunch. Their employees are always efficient and courteous. I frequently pick up either a kimbab or one of their lunch specials - delicious and great value. They recently put some work into upgrading their decor as well, so if you want to sit down and watch some Korean language television while you eat, also a good option“
“****** Rarely ever drop a six star review, but Gangnam Aligatto definitely deserves it.The spicy pork ribs I had were astonishingly good, and the staff here are some of the best people in America. I needed help cutting some meat off my ribs (before I decided to just eat the entire plate with my hands) and the waitress was extremely nice. When I finished my food (there was a lot of high quality food) the staff smiled and gave me a nod of approval. The space is clean, and the neighborhood is beautiful.Thanks GA!“
