“You can never go wrong at the Granita Grill. Everything is absolutely delicious on the menu. They always find a table for us. Ralph and Julie are always so nice and good at what they do! Gotta love this place! Best to call ahead to make the reservation. And they are great for large tables and private parties. The grandson Milan is known to play the piano. Well. Ed the guitarist singer performs on the weekends. He does a great job too!“
“A tad superior to Tony D's, but less traffic. Location is everything. Their bread is good, higher quality than the other place. Nice vibe, too. The owner looks like a worker and is a nice man. Oh, and the pizza? Well, of late, I've learned of the subjectivity of taste the dish inspires.“
“I moved out of state 40 years ago. While visiting family February of 2020, we got a pie from Tony D. It was so memorable that when we came back this past weekend, we made a special trip for a few slices! Best NY pizza ever. The crust has that snap that I miss here in MD! As well, Tony is a doll!!“
“this is my absolute "go-to" place - always welcomed with a smile - the servers are pleasant and accommodating without being overbearing; they allow you to enjoy your experience and still stay on top of everything - and the food, the food, is simply fabulous and very high quality and always delicious - a truly overall wonderful experience; every time!“
“I so love they take Apple Pay! Pompilio's Pizzeria & Restaurant is a new location for us to visit for great food, friendly staff and service with a cozy ambiance atmosphere. We will definitely visit again we loved their pan pizza, garlic knots, and mozzarella sticks.“
“A staple of Westwood and Pascack Valley. While I miss the prominence of the original location and the welcoming site of one of Vinny's (big or little) welcoming travelers to the heart of downtown, the upgraded interior and parking make it definitely a net-positive. And as always, go for the round Sicilian when you order.“
“Very nice cozy decor. Fish special was very tasty but very small portion. Crab cakes were just ok but I am really picky. The short ribs were the fave of the table. Server was very attentive. Owner visited tables and was really friendly which today is rare professionalism. Cappuccinos were great. BYOB which we love. We will be back.“
“Amazing food and service! We ordered the beef nachos to share and I got the taco with steak and boy do they bless it with the portions! I was visiting and a friend brought me here so definitely would want to come back next time I’m around!“

“Not only is this place super delicious as a NY slice but their selection is outstanding along with everyone that works there. The manager Dawn is a sweetheart we’ve hit it off since me and my wife met her. Anyone looking for a great pie this is spot.“
“Amazing!!!! This place is for beautiful, delicious food with personalized service that will leave you with warm memories.We held a party and all the guests were praising food and all 19 members of our party chose different entree. Broad menu , delicious cocktails ( drinks were amazing - we were competing / challenging bar- and were so excited to receive beautiful composition of flavors). Big servings - enough to feed 2 people! They were very accommodating- they offered to open for our party an hour earlier - just for us to have some personal family time - WHO WOULD DO THAT!?! Once we walked in - we were offered to take off and hang our outwear. Warm welcome made us feel especially important! Only thought kept our servers away from us. They were on their toes above our table - and some moments were felt - they are reading my mind.Great for special occasions and beautiful food to have !! We all will definitely come back again!!!Thank you guys for memorable evening !!!!“
“I want to thank the Kingsbridge Social Club for catering our fundraiser event on March 23rd. The food was sooooo good. The chicken parmigiana was delicious. Every one loved the sausage and peppers. The baked ziti was on point. I especially loved the added touch of the fresh basil. Once again thank you.I have also eaten in the restaurant several times and recommended it highly. I recommend the eggplant parmigiana and the chicken wings. My favorites.“
“Visiting Grumpys for the Pizza Hunters App and was not disappointed. Parking can be tricky. There are only 4 parking spots behind the Pizzeria..I wound up parking across the street and patronizing the Deli as well in the process. I didn't even get all the way inside the door and was greeted immediately with a Hello, Welcome and How are You. Service was excellent and the price point was excellent. A lot of great Pizza for your money. It took me a little to find the words for this Pizza. The Crispy crust is definitely the highlight. Followed by the Sauce and Cheese. Really, the pizza has its own unique style and delivery. It all works. At one point, I thought maybe a little more sauce, since i am a big fan, but once it hits your taste Buds, you realize that it all works perfectly together and that's what makes it unique as a Grumpys Pizza. I give it 5 Pie Ya's.. pie ya, pie ya. Pie ya. Pie ya. Pie ya. I will definitely be back again. Great Job Grumpys..I have to Pizza aside, your Customer Service is top notch as well.“
“Food, service, accommodations, patience, and did I mention the food, especially the pastas were nothing short of amazing. This is the first time in a while where I was impressed with the costumer service of everyone from the hostess to the waiter and all staff. We weren’t rushed whatsoever and somehow sat talking for several hours without the slightest animosity from the staff. I will be back!!Parking: Easy and no valet“

“the pizza was so stringy, and warm, it was definitely hand made and never frozen, the music playing really brings up the mood and was easy to order, a single slice is only 3 bucks (minus tax) and it is very wheelchair friendly, the chairs are not screwed to the floor so you can move chairs for the wheelchair.“
“If you want to take people to a real authentic regional Italian restaurant come here! The food is great and their concise wine menu has some classics to match. The chicken parm is ward winning so you must order. We did family style. Best of all is the staff who are like friends you know from around the corner. Birthday parties were going on this night and the karaoke at the busy bar was...well...cute. My crew will be back!“
“Who knew there could be so many ways to spice up a meatball sub! When I first moved to the area, a local recommended this place. I was intrigued by all the interesting options on the menu and had to try. Although I want to try everything, I love my usual order so much that I haven’t been able to stray. My go to is the Buckwild Balls Sandwich, which I highly recommend. Sometimes the bread is a little burnt, but otherwise cooked to perfection. I will continue going back and maybe one day I’ll feel adventurous enough to stray from my usual!“
“Great food, great service, really nice atmosphere. We met dear friends for dinner and had an awesome evening! Every course was excellent, Stephanie our server was terrific, and as we waited for our ride home, Salih said I am going through Ridgewood I will give you a ride. Wow! Talk about full service.“
“What a WONDERFUL treat!!! When I was a little girl growing up in New York, there was an Argentine Pizzeria that had THE-BEST pizza and empanadas. Unfortunately, the owners retired and moved away. I have searched and search for that perfect crunch of the Argentine pizza and taste….and I FOUND IT at Biby’s!Biby’s offers different types of pizza but if you want to experience AMAZING-NESS, their Argentine Pizza Deluxe is the way to go. Minus the eggs, that is EXACTLY the way I had it growing up. We ate with the sliced hard boiled eggs on top and it was sooooo….GOOD!As soon I saw the round pan and the gentleman building the pizza, my heart was so GLAD…. I said to my myself, “Yes, that’s how I remember the pizza being prepared” The Argentine pizza is a little thicker but so tasty!All of this and I didn’t tell you about the empanadas…. ALSO DEE-LISH, and the Chimichurri sauce is incredible! And a variety of empanadas.The service was incredible, they were really kind and gracious.I traveled a good hour to Biby’s Empanadas & Pizza….the travel was WELL WORTH IT!At home with my family, everything was a HIT!“
“Along with Italian Riviera in Waldwick, this is the preeminent Italian delicatessen in all of Bergen County and its immediate surrounding area. The food is great. A lot of homemade stuff, sandwiches are stuffed, ingredients are top notch. Mom is an excellent cook, her eggplant parm, broccoli rabe are off the charts. Her two boys mainly look after the customers, they're quick, friendly and always smiling. Small storefront, very clean but humongous on the taste buds.“
“This review is so overdue! This restaurant has become my go-to place for the best food in the area. I have tried so many restaurants but none keeps on calling my taste buds like La Cambusa! I come with my hubby and daughter and most recently with some of my betsies..I love their menu is small but super delicious. Their appetizers are amazing ? the little bruschetta at the beginning is so yummy and you kind of build it yourself. The flavors are super clean and sauces are light and full of flavors. Sometimes food is drenched in so much sauce that it loses its unique flavor but not here. Every dish is a perfect harmonious bite. It is BYOB which is a plus. Keep up with the nice clean flavors! See you soon…“
“My husband and I had a little date night here during the Christmas season and it was quiet good! I work in the area so was pleasantly surprised to discover it was in my stomping ground.The booths were cozy and perfect for the occasion. The food was well seasoned and fresh. The service was decent..I would recommend it.“
“My experience at the restaurant was a bit overwhelming due to the noise and crowded atmosphere, especially on a Friday night with live music. Despite the tight arrangement of tables making it difficult to move around, the food and service were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian dish with pasta and plan on returning for it. My friends also loved their salmon dishes and couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. Overall, while the ambiance was not to my liking, the quality of the food and service made up for it.“
“In my opinion, Perusia has the best thin crust pizza in town, we also loved the mussels, ravioli, bolognese, & tortellini. We were there for our Daughters birthday party today, and she and her friends loved the pizza, spaghetti & meatballs, & the pasta pomodoro and had a great time. The staff were incredibly helpful and nice, they held our birthday cake overnight for us and allowed us to decorate the table an hour before hand while the kids were at the escape room in the next shopping center. The restaurant is comfortable and clean. Thank you so much.“
“Yo. This place is it. The truth. Tonight we decided was gonna be a pizza night but my wife specifically wanted PIZZA - like not a tavern style bar pie or a Patsy's/Angelo's NY margarita type. Old school pizza, pizza. Bob's delivered. Literally. From Tappan to Upper Saddle River they brought some of the best "plain" slices I've had since moving to NJ - and it showed up quick, hot and totally in tact. We fking loved this pizza. There are more than a few great places to get Pizza near us - but I'm absolutely thrilled to add this one to the regular rotation. Tonight I'll drink to Bob's. May they stay in business forever! Here here.“
“I attended a group dinner here at the end of January. While the food was amazing, I was most appreciative of the service. We were made to feel special and it really helped to elevate the experience. And I haven't stopped thinking about the parmesan cauliflower bites - so good!!!“
“We love this place the chicken parm pizza is amazing since the new owners took over it's better then before there friendly sandwiches are better they take credit cards and there delivery is more efficient there even open on Sundays there pizza amazing and sandwiches are plentiful great family “
“Very friendly and attentive staff! This was a great experience. Bread came out with a plate of delicious mozzarella and tomato in olive oil (complimentary). I had shrimp parm that was very tasty. Loved the sauce. I ordered it with the roasted potatoes, and although I thought they were a bit lacking in flavor (need some spice or something), I was so happy that I had a choice of pasta, salad, or potato. My husband had the chicken sorrentino and really liked that too. He ordered it with a salad and that also was good. We ordered two desserts. Cannoli was good, but I've had better. My husband really enjoyed the banana pudding. Then they gave us zeppoles on the house, which we had to take home as we were already stuffed with good food. Highly recommend this place!“
“This is your local, authentic Italian Deli with zero frills (don’t plan to eat inside, takeout only/cash only) but the best sandwich you will eat in North Jersey! I ordered a number 5 for a party and it was a HUGE hit! Everyone was asking where it was from. I highly recommend #1 for meat lovers, number #8 if you like turkey. Can’t go wrong with any. Trust me…delicious!!“
“I come here every once in a while. It's quite nice, the food is really good and reasonably priced. They also have a nice selection of gluten-free menu options. I'm not gluten-free, but recently, it's been something I look out for and notice because I love someone who is Celiac. Most recently, I came for my birthday, and they were able to modify items on the menu to custom create what I was looking for! (always a plus)Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free optionsKid-friendliness: Very kid friendlyWheelchair accessibility: It's on one level with no steps but tight might be hard to navigate with a chair“
“Excellent service, the food is great, good portions, good presentation, Ms. Giovanna is very jealous with the presentation of the food and always attentive to the smallest detail, it is a place that I would definitely recommend 100%, it is small and very busy so the waiting time is a bit long.“
“I’ve written more than one review here, probably with multiple emails, or maybe the same one. Who knows. Going on a tour de Bergen County with reviews since I no longer live in the area, and have come to find how incredibly spoiled us Bergen County folks are for the food we have access to. This place is one of them. I’ve never had pizza this good inside or outside of Bergen County. Miss this place a lot, even the lovely owners, and I stop in every trip back to get a slice that I eat straight away—because it’s the only way. Gonna have to plan another trip. Perfecto pizza. Probably can only get better in literal Italy.“
“Another fantastic dinner at my favorite place. Short rib ravioli appetizer was scrumptious. Chicken Milanese was crispy and perfectly cooked. My husband's absolute favorite dish, almond crusted sea bass over risotto was perfection. The wait staff is always friendly and accommodating. Love, love, Mezza Luna.“
“What a marvelous restaurant Chef Vittorio has created in Sparkhill !!!As you walk in , you know you’re in for an old school experience infused with Vittorio’s talent!!Very attentive , knowledgeable and friendly service.Thin layered eggplant, Millefoglie Di Melanzane Alla Mamma Carolina ( his mother’s recipe), Polipo as tender as can be and a Carpaccio Di Manzo were some of the appetizers we had that were outstanding, followed by some amazing pasta and finished with Tonno Alla Putanesca that was OFF THE CHARTS and a perfectly done Berkshire Tomahawk Pork Chop!!Maestro, thank you for a wonderful experience!!“
“This little pizzeria has the cutest little front. It's across the street from the library and it has little seats outside. You could sit and have a nice cuppa coffee or slice of pizza. We like the chicken buffalo and a lot of the margarita pizzas. I love the calzones everything has been pretty good.“
“A birthday destination for sure. The food is excellent and "from scratch "! The service was attentive and all of the staff friendly and knowledgeable. It is a small business so the feeling is very intimate. Their Nutella pie is absolutely delicious and unlike any dessert I have ever had. Even though I am not a Nutella affectionata it has a flavor beyond compare.“
“We had my Dad's 90th birthday party here. Brianna and her staff went above and beyond to make it incredible. The food was exceptional. Their service was first rate. They accomodated us arriving early to decorate and gather all our guests for the surprise party. They worked too make sure everything was perfectThe food? Oh goodness! Delicious and plentiful. Everyone was raving how delicious it was and that there was easy more than enough for all.I would highly recommend you plan an event here or just go for dinner. My only regret is that I can't leave a more than 5 star rating.Thank you so very much for memories everyone will carry for years“
“I recently needed early lunch reservations for a family gathering on a Saturday afternoon. Although the restaurant doesn't open until 4 PM, the owner was kind enough to open early to accommodate my family for a birthday celebration. This was our first time visiting Ciao Bella. It's a very quaint BYOB Italian bistro. The food was phenomenal, the service excellent and the experience delightful. Thank you to the owner for allowing us to come in early. Thank you to Emily our server who attended to our every need. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and highly recommend your excellent food and atmosphere. :-)“
“If you want top notch food and service, you need go to this restaurant. I first went to Justin's few years ago. We don't get to go as much now because we have moved, but it's as delicious as ever! We took my children here for my bday dinner. We drove few minutes because we love this place so much.“
“WE SAW THE PROGRAM WITH GORDON RAMSEY, NIGHTMARE KITCHENS USA, AND WE WERE STRIKED BY THE SERIOUSNESS AND GREAT WILL OF ANTONIO, WHO FOR BEING SO YOUNG IS ALREADY A WINNER.WE WANTED TO ASK IF YOU DO HOME DELIVERIES IN EUROPE, WE WOULD LIKE A PIZZA MADE BY ANTONIO.GREETINGS FROM ITALIAN SWITZERLAND.“
“I have always been satisfied by the personalized service and attentive care. The, "Side Salad", is a nutrient rich choice of true vegetables, not just thrown together mishmash. The waiter and , "busboy", kept up to whatever I needed, wanted, or didn't need. I had extra help to my car with take-home foods. I dined alone, but they made it special. The drinks and wine were excellent, too.“
“Went to IL Posto Eatery for the 1st time and what a great place this is. The sandwiches were outrageous and the rice balls were outstanding, the best I ever had! My new favorite Italian deli, so glad I stopped in. Give it a try, you will be glad you did!!“
“We have lived in the area for 20 years and have always wanted to come to Sanzari's. Not only was the food superb but the hospitality and ambiance also made our evening more enjoyable. Gus, our waiter, was so kind, helpful and made the dining experience worthwhile! Highly recommend coming here!!“
“Recently enjoyed a fabulous experience at Dolce Vita! The ambiance is cozy and inviting, the staff are exceptionally welcoming, and every dish we tried was a delight. Truly a hidden gem that captures the sweet life in every bite. Can’t recommend it enough!“
“HOLY SMOKES! It's been a long time since I was left satisfied and smiling! This Chicken Carciofi is a master class, must-have item in your take out rotation. The focaccia crunch blended with the heavenly fresh mozzzy ooooooooh MAMA!!! When I eat this sandwich, I travel to another dimension, and I'm comfortable in that place, it feels like home. Add on the special, yet delicate ARANCINOs and I am LOST, barely aware of my surroundings, struggling to gather myself. God Bless America and God Bless Adam and those soldiers at Francesca's!“
“Have not been here in years. Service was amazing. Our server Tim was the best. The owner was so friendly and attentive. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Atmosphere was family friendly and great for all ages. Very reasonably priced. Bonus- upstairs if you want to host a party. We will definitely be going back. We highly recommend the Firehouse“
“I stopped into La Bona Pizza after a drive up in Old Tappan and tried a slice of their cheese pizza. It is excellent!. The sauce has so much flavor and that makes the base of the pizza. They are a little on the pricy side but it is well worth it. The rest of their pizzas on display looked really good but they were $4.00 a slice which was a little high for me but there were some creative topping like Chicken Parm and Baked Ziti.“

“It’s establishments like this that set the standard by which all future experiences are measured. The taste, texture and freshness of the pizza, eggplant rollatini and garlic were all to die for (shout-out to the marinara sauce!!), but it’s the atmosphere created by the easy, efficient team, and especially Maryellen and John that will make my memories. Something about their familiarity, warm presence and attentiveness made us feel at home immediately, giving us a glimpse into what it would be like to be part of this neighborhood. It was fun just to watch Maryellen interact with the customers, seeming to know every customer by name. If I were a local I would definitely be a loyal customer.“
“Old school Italian with large servings of excellent food. It is in a somewhat sad looking strip mall with not much curb appeal. But don't let that throw you off. The interior is nice and the staff friendly.Be aware the place looks like it's been there forever -- the word is out with locals and regulars so it can get crowded at peak hours.“
“Cool new spot in town! I was reluctant to try this place out but I decided to give it a try after seeing a nice crowd in there. It turns out there is a new owner, he just kept the name of the place the same. A mistake in my opinion but at least he did one good thing. He hired a great bartender named I know from Barrel and Brew. This guy can make a great drink and he is so personable. He interacts well with guests and designed a great menu of drinks. I enjoyed a couple of delicious margaritas while I was there. They also had a DJ named Bronson playing some great music. I look forward to seeing how this place does because I've always said this spot would make a great bar because of the nice patio outside. It would make a great hangout for the summer. I can't really comment on the food because I only tried an order of wings but they were good. The ambience though gave me reason to believe this place could make it at this spot.“
“I kept seeing this place online so my husband and I decided to try it out. Their options at the bar are beyond expectations. The service was impeccable. We truly enjoyed our experience, and the food? Amazing... the calamari was phenomenal, the cacio e pepe balls i can eat all day, and my husband's favorite was this glazed pork chop. We'll be back!“
