“This has to be one of the Best bagel stores in NJ. Eric and Christie are amazing owners and everything is made fresh, including the variety of Cream cheeses they offer. Have to try the sundried tomato cream cheese, it is a favorite. The staff are friendly and pleasant and very efficient in what they do. I call ahead my order being they are always busy. Don't be surprised if when you arrive there is a line out the door, they are that good. 👍“

“Review of Maggie's

If you are looking for an exceptional meal paired with a warm and friendly atmosphere, Maggie's is definitely the place to go.

The dining experience stands out for several reasons:

- Generous portions served with an elegant presentation
- Very reasonable prices for the high quality of food
- Excellent, attentive service throughout the meal
- A comfortable noise level, making genuine conversation easy to enjoy

During our visit, we ordered the Tavern Chicken Cobb Salad and the Mandarin Shrimp Salad. Both dishes were absolutely outstanding. Based on our experience, there isn't a single dish here that I wouldn't highly recommend.“

“We threw a drop-in Buffet dinner for family and friends at Houlihans for 30 to 35 people. The room is spacious and accommodated everyone comfortably. Our server Eileen was excellent and the food was delicious. Michelle who assisted with the catering was very detail oriented and help me plan a great event. Sebastian the manager as extremely gracious and helped ensure our guests were taken care of. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend..“

“This was a night and place we never expected. I kept seeing pictures on Social Media from the Bar Gal CHA CHA. It just always sounded fun. Tonight we went! We had the popular COWBOY CALAMARI, WOW it was so good! My husband had the chicken parm and I had a rib eye. IT WAS HUGE! Cooked perfect and came out hot. We decided to sit at the bar and partake in BINGO NIGHT! We met people and talked. Great Dirty Martini too!! We would go back. We need to try the PIZZA!“

“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!“

“Just had brunch at White Maple Cafe. This place has such a beautiful, cozy atmosphere, in the middle of the lovely town of Ridgewood. We had the chicken wings, short rib benedict, and sandwiches. All the food is extremely high quality, delicious, and tastes like it was made with love! The owner Maryam is the most kind, welcoming, and caring host, as well as a great barista! I highly recommend this place for any occasion. Support this business - they deserve all the love!“

“Curley's Corner is the BEST RESTAURANT with all homemade food and ingredients. Their Irish fare is the best in all of NY & North Jersey. The staff is always on top of your needs & very friendly. The pricing on all their menu items has always been very affordable. I give them a 10.“

“Wait staff was friendly and you were not pushed to finish dinner. We had the shrimp po' boy and the grilled ribeye open face steak sandwich. I asked for my French fries to be extra crispy and they were delicious. After driving for almost 5 hours, sitting in rush hour traffic and construction, this diner made our day and on a really great note.“

“We’ve come to St. Eves for dinner several times over the past few years, and we’ve always loved the food and the atmosphere, so when it came time to celebrate my birthday, hosting a party in their private room was an easy choice. I’m so glad we did!

Thank you to the entire staff for making it such a special night. The food was amazing, the service was attentive and seamless, and the private room was the perfect setting for our group. From start to finish, the whole experience exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to come back, and I’d highly recommend St. Eves to anyone planning a celebration!“

“Chicken is crunchy and delicious! Everything I've tried so far has been good. Glad I finally tried Chicken Galore last month, but, now I'm a little addicted 😉“

“Nice place.

In fact, this is quite a comfortable and good looking place. Whether it's in a strip mall or not is irrelevant (mentioning it only for those who chose to ignorantly judge that aspect), as it's the quality of the place that counts over where it's located.

I've been in the area before, but didn't notice it. It was only after seeing it was on an episode of Kitchen Nightmares did it pique my interest. After seeing the episode, I made it a point to come here and try this place. I was glad I did.

As mentioned, inside is really nice and my kind of place. Very comfortable, casual, and a good spot to get a meal or just to hang out. With so many TV's, I would imagine that this would make a great sports bar/restaurant as well.

There's a choice of table, booth, or bar to sit and I chose the booth as I usually do. The food menu is pretty decent and filled with enough options. I chose the Mozzarella sticks for the table and the 'Lunch Money Burger' for myself. The sticks were pretty big, but tasted good. The burger was okay, but I can't say it was the best I've ever had. The fries had a unique taste to them and were quite good.

The waitresses were very friendly and attentive.

Parking is plentiful as this does share the space with several other businesses since it's located in a mall.

Overall, this is a nice place that I'd have come to whether or not it was featured in the show. Being on the show is what got me to notice this place and now that I know it's here, if I'm in the area again I would surely come back.“

“Great breakfast variety and good service.“

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

“What great service at this location. Between our waitress Diamond and GM Natasha, we can’t say enough about them.“

“oh my god it's been 4 months since my husband and myself poped in for breakfast on our weekend getaway, and I CANNOT stop thinking about how AMAZING the food was.... looks like another 9 hour trip is in our near future 😭😍 p.s. get the pancakes🫶🏻“

“Fantastic fresh food that is tasty AND delicious 🤤“

“Louie's On The Avenue has been our favorite local restaurant for years ..however last Friday Stephanie and her team knocked it out of the park! with 24 hours notice, they helped plan, decorate, cater and Host our impromptu wedding.

I cannot express our gratitude enough for making this a memorable event for both Steve and I. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts❤️ love love love you all!“

“best place ever I enjoy there food I moved out of Paterson nj 4 years ago ever time I come to nj to visit my mom I stop there. great people great food“

“Great place Great food very nice people“

“We dined at Robert’s for the first time. We were celebrating a relative’s birthday. The food was outrageous! The appetizers were amazing as were all of the entrees. I had chicken stuffed with mushrooms and I can honestly say that it was the best chicken I have ever eaten. The portions were plentiful. We had a large selection of desserts to choose from at the end of the meal. I chose one particular dessert but before mine came out, I asked if I could exchange it for one that someone in our party had in front of her. No problem. They accommodated me and it was beyond delicious. Also, the staff was very attentive during our whole meal. They could not have been any better. The only negative was the fact that there was also another birthday celebration going on at the same time and it was so noisy that we couldn’t hear each other talk. Despite that, I wouldn’t hesitate to return to this fabulous restaurant.“

“The food is always delicious, it's made fast , they've never messed up an order & the prices are reasonable , but the service is deserving of 10/10. The owner George is a great guy & the woman who works the register is an absolute angel! I ordered lunch for a lot of guys and the job & sometimes I'll forgot something , she actually found my number & called me back a couple times to confirm / correct my order. Extremely thoughtful & caring very much appreciated!“

“Amazing place! Owner, food and service wow!!!“

“Great brunch place with kids. Great service.“

“I have had many food sensitivities and they were wonderful to accommodate. The restaurant was lovely. The service was perfect and they were very fast to serve us. 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“

“great underated place“
