From Tuesday to Sunday nights, guests can enjoy a live DJ playing on the patio in the front sushi area, creating an energetic vibe. Moving to the back, the restaurant transforms into a country-style Yellowstone steakhouse featuring excellent country music that perfectly complements the ambiance. The food is outstanding, and the staff provide attentive and friendly service, making for a memorable visit overall.

“Tonight I had the pleasure to dine at Bici restaurant in Ramsey, NJ. From the minute I walked in, I knew I was going to like it! You are greeted in such a warm and friendly manner. One of the owners, Marcello makes his rounds around the room speaking to his customers and making you feel at home. Everything I ordered was delicious and the waiters are so polite and attentive. Pleasant atmosphere and I will be back again. Thank you staff for your hospitality. It’s a BYOB. It’s a small restaurant with outdoor dining. Definitely 5 stars!!!!!“

“Place is a hidden treasure. Food is outstanding! The waiters were very welcoming, funny and very attentive without rushing us before we could ask for anything they were right there. The owner is super sweet with a beautiful personality. He makes you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. The food was phenomenal every dish was seasoned perfectly and portions were plentiful. The prices very reasonable for the service and food quality they provide. This is so far our favorite Italian cuisine restaurant I'm so glad we live close by we will be back. If I could give a 10 star I would!“

“Some restaurants radiate warmth the moment you step inside, and this is one of them. From the seating to the final farewell, every staff member was polite and professional. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the pasta was easily one of the best I've ever had.
Oh, and don't miss out on the cocktails! We ordered the ‘Vagabondo’ and the ‘Espresso Martini,’ and both were absolutely delicious.
Truly a place I want to revisit on a special day.“

“Well, this is a special place, don't you believe? Let's see.I was walking around looking for a place to eat and saw this deli , mind you that when you see a line outside a deli and customers willing wait in the cold for food , you know the food is going to be off the hook ! In line a sweet man was telling the history of the deli and how is the best town and anything I choose will definitely make me happy, another customer arrives and tells me to how much he loves it ! I knew I had found a gem that needs to be shared , because customer's are raving for it , the employees and owner sweetest guy very patient in waiting for me to decide what I wanted I even bought few things brought from Italy while I waited for My delicious 🤤 Little Nicky sandwich 🥪 which not only is so big I ate it for lunch and dinner 🍽️ is the best sandwich I've had in years ! I appreciate the stories of when it was established. I care so much for the excellent customer service and the way they run the place makes you feel like you step into a home! I'm definitely looking forward to what to try next!!! Sorry for the no picture of the sandwich, I ate the whole thing 🤣 don't forget grab freshly made mozzarella!!!!!“

“Albert’s’s has been a go to favorite for many years and Albert is an excellent host. The food never disappoints and the service is always great. I recommend Albert’s HoHokus whole heartedly.“

“Their Italian dishes are superb.“

“We had a wonderful experience at this pizza place! The brick oven calzone and pizza were absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared.
What made it even more special was enjoying the meal with our grandchildren. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a great spot for family time. Everyone loved the food, and every bite was truly tasty.
We’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“The food and service are excellent. This place is great!! I shouldn’t be saying this because people will go. There is alway a line at the door even with reservations. But it moves quickly.“

“On December 12th my law office had their holiday luncheon at this wonderful restaurant. I also ordered a tray of meat lasagna for Christmas. If you have never had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant, I suggest you run - do not pass go - and get your butt there and eat the most delicous food on this planet. The chef created the meat lasagna - a simple dish - and elevated to something that just melts in your mouth with deliciousness. LOVE LOVE LOVE this restaurant!!“

“Been going for 30 years since the Ridgefield Park days. Food never disappoints.“

“I placed an order with Frankie’s today, and they were a little backed up because of all the orders they had. The management team was very accommodating and apologetic when my food came out late. I truly appreciate their professionalism and hospitality. The food was amazing, and I’ll definitely be back. Thank you for the great service!“

“Every time we go to Lavagna, the owner and his staff are always gracious and accommodating. This past weekend, my family and I were looking for a place to go after my Mom's wake. It was after 8:00 pm and we thought we would try Lavagna, knowing that they may not be able to accommodate the 12 of us as is was late and Friday's are usually very busy. We asked and they went out of their way to seat us as close as possible and served us with a smile even with two picky kids in tow. The food was delicious, as always. Thank you Lavagna staff for a relaxing, delicious comforting meal!“

“We recently had a private event here for my daughter’s baptism party. The food and service was fantastic! Servers were on point and very nice! The only thing was that we paid until 4pm and felt that we were being rushed out due to them wanting to turn tables over to open up to public for 4:30. Tables were being cleared & set up for dinner crowd way before the party was over (at least a half hour) and outsiders were coming in for what I assume was take-out orders and were sitting at our tables while they waited for their to-go orders, so I just thought that was a bit rude when we are paying the restaurant for a private event and they are normally not open during those hours to the public (just for private events). Other than that, all was good and very affordable! Thank you!!“

“Everything in this place is fabulous. Service with a smile. We have a hard time pulling ourselves away from the pan-seared steak which comes with greens, with the salads and the creamy polenta. The bread pudding is a stand out. The only issue is that everyone knows this place and cram themselves in. Lack of elbow room totally worth it!“

“Absolutely amazing. Julia was our waitress and she was very attentive but not overbearing like others can be. She knew when to come and check on us and when we just wanted to be. Food was as always, delicious.“

“hands down the best place! beyond 5 stars from food to staff.....Francesca and Junior were beyond exceptional bartenders! Food was excellent.....Absolutely love everything about this place“

“Good food and plenty of it“

“Had a surprise birthday party here for my sister in law. The staff, including Brianna and Jasmine were fantastic. They were so accommodating with our requests and the service and food were on point! We were able to arrive early to decorate our party area that already looked very nice without our decorations. We picked off their standard party menu but they had no problem tweaking it to our requests. Last minute requests for pasta and butter for kids was no problem. We have already placed a deposit for my daughter's bridal shower for next year. Also..BYOB!!!“

“Good Pizza Great service Good Beer“

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

“I order pretty frequently from Dom’s in Nanuet since I work nearby. Yesterday, when we got our order to Sloatsburg, there was an omission in the order ( we really should have checked before we left). As always, Dom’s went above and beyond to make this right. They drove my order to Sloatsburg and included several delicious extras! Their catering always makes our events delicious, but yesterday they made it extra delicious. Dom’s has amazing food and even better service.“

“Great food , BYOB, great prices. On top of that the service is wonderful“

“The #1 and the Chicken, Eggplant, or Meatball Parmigiana Sandwiches are literally perfect on every level. Expertly sliced, sized and also very fairly priced. The Daily Homemade soups are great as are the Daily Specials. If I lived closer I'd eat lunch here daily. Cash $$ only.“

“We don’t dine out frequently, but when we do, we love Amarone! We had not been there in quite some time, so we went to celebrate my birthday. From the moment one enters, one feels welcome. The atmosphere combines elegance and comfort, warmth, and the delectable aroma of culinary delights to come. Charming, funny, and attentive, Tony provided us with excellent service. The food was fantastic. We started with the clams oreganata. The white wine sauce made an excellent accompaniment. My husband had the ribeye steak accompanied by shrimp scampi, broccolini, and mashed potatoes. I tried the grilled veal chop. With mixed vegetables and roasted potatoes, it was superb. We will be back!“

“Had my husband’s 60th bday party at Justin’s. We had never been to the restaurant but were looking for an Italian BYO place for the party. Manny and the whole team were wonderful to work with! They were so accommodating and the service was wonderful.We chose to do a buffet. Excellent food!! Highly recommend! We will definitely go back!“

“A huge THANK YOU to Ken and everyone at Soprano's in NM for helping make our NMHS 40th reunion a success. Ken took his time to help me plan a menu, order, and execute a hot and cold buffet for over 60 people. The food came precisely when promised, piping hot, and everything was delicious. (All on a very busy Saturday Night might I add!). I will certainly be calling them again for my next catering as well as take-out dinner!“

“Food and Service was outstanding as always. Our waiter Carlos was very accommodating and Joann the owner came to our table several times to make sure all was ok. We will definitely go back,especially for the delicious bracciole.“

“My husband works in Hawthorne and we we’re looking for a good Italian restaurant. After Google reviews we decided to order from Ossy’s and we are so glad we did. When you first walk in the atmosphere is nostalgic and authentic. The staff is so warm and welcoming. I spoke with Ken the last time to place our order and he was a total sweetheart. We have ordered from them twice so far and their food is second to none. You can taste their passion for food. My husband ordered the Chicken Napolitano both times and said it was out of this world delicious. My son ordered Rigatoni with Vodka sauce and practically licked his plate clean!! I ordered Chicken Marsala and Chicken Sorrentino and it was one of the best I have ever had. Yes this is coming from a Jersey Italian whose family once owned a restaurant in Newark so my standards are very high. We did takeout but we are looking forward to bringing the family to the restaurant for a sit down meal. If you are looking for a great Italian restaurant look no further. Ossy’s is your place!“

“Perfect! The food is very delicious. Everbody is very kind“

“I have had always had a great experience at IL Sole! The service always stands out, our server is always polite, attentive, and incredibly fast, constantly checking in to make sure our table had everything we needed. They are also very accommodating, which makes the whole experience even better.

The food is always hot and absolutely delicious, everything is fresh, flavorful, and the drinks are just as enjoyable as the meal.

What really sets this place apart is how welcoming they are to families. If you have babies or strollers, they go out of their way to make you comfortable instead of making you feel like an inconvenience (which sadly happens at other places). They truly create a relaxed, inclusive environment where everyone can enjoy themselves.

Highly recommend definitely a spot I will keep coming back to! Thank you to the staff of IL Sole! ☺️“

“I highly recommend this place. We had a party of 38 who needed a last minute place for our Xmas party and they took us without hesitation. Food good, drinks good and the staff was amazing, kind and just overall really nice place!!“

“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!“

“Great food . . . All of our dishes were absolutely excellent!!!“
