From the website:

Chef Vittorio mixes a subtle hint of traditional peasant food with his modern take on fresh, hand-selected seasonal ingredients. The warm, intimate setting of Cucina Verace’s rustic space is a wonderful backdrop to a dining experience rooted in the chef’s past. Chef Vittorio shares the skills he learned in his mother Carolina’s kitchen in Campagna to bring you a southern Italian meal that you won’t soon forget. Chef Vittorio’s frequent trips back to Italy to explore the country’s regions also help to shape the unique menu.“

“Trays of wraps made for cardiac service at GSH. Best grilled chicken wrap ever!! My friends and family frequently eat at the diner. Everything is fresh and delicious 😋“

“We ordered online before the restaurant opened. Our order was due to be done by 330pm (only 30 minutes after they opened) we arrived around 340pm and our order was ready. We ordered Tassot Cabrit-Fried Goat with black rice with fried plantains, Oxtails, black rice, cabbage with sweet plantains, an order of Mac and Cheese and an order of Fried Okra. EVERYTHING was amazing. Great flavor, just enough spice and the portion size was good. My son is picky with food and he really liked the mac and cheese. Even though we ordered to take out we decided to stay and eat. They had no issues with that. Services was on point and they played great music. We were there during the day but it is a lounge and would be fitting for other types of events. Overall 5/5 for us. We will return to try other menu items. The food smelled and looked so good we forgot to take pictures. Overall very delicious Caribbean food.“

“Had a wonderful anniversary dinner. Food was excellent and the live music was great. They just so happened to play our wedding song which was perfect. My husband and I had the tuna tartar and scallops as an appetizer. The scallops were over this creamy sweet corn chowder with corn salsa and croutons - it was amazing and the best scallops I’ve ever had! Tuna tartar was delicious too. My husband had the pork chops with this mustard crust and eggplant sauce and I had veal milenase with an arugula salad on top. Both were really delicious meals. The veal was huge and definitely could have split that. Even though we were so full, we still managed to get the yummy Pineapple cake and hazelnut chocolate mousse for dessert.“

“Very rich all from the apostizers the bloody the delicious food and the very nice dishes decorated [Original] Muy Rico todo desde los appetizers la sangria la comida deliciosa y los platos muy lindos decorados“

“What a gem! Fantastic food, very cool atmosphere, friendly and very skilled staff, plus the bonus of live entertainment. What a great band!! I would absolutely recommend this establishment and would happily visit again!“

“Called in for a reservation for an anniversary and they got me a table very quickly. Food and drinks were really good. Got complementary champagne for the occasion, was a great experience. Big thank you for Serafim Kolokithas for making it a good time.“

“The food is very good. I love the appetizers and the Greek salad! When there’s music, the bands are great. The staff is very friendly and helpful.“

“My experience at this establishment was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality that truly set the tone for my visit. While the food was undoubtedly delicious, it was the outstanding service that truly stole the show.

Katarina, in particular, went above and beyond to make my visit memorable. Her attentive and personable approach created a welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. It's rare to find a place where the quality of service rivals the taste of the food, but this gem of a spot has managed to strike that perfect balance. I can't wait to return for another unforgettable dining experience!“

“2nd time here, not disappointed!“

“Gran experiencia el Día de la Madre en D’Carbón de Haledon. Excelente servicio! Los gestos y atenciones de las meseras realmente hacen la diferencia en una cena especial. Jhoselyn y el resto del equipo del restaurante son expectaculares en un día tan ocupado como fue el día de la madre. Esos momentos especiales en los que te sientes bien atendido y cuidado hacen que la comida sea aún más deliciosa. Se que tendré muchas más experiencias increíbles en De Carbón y seguiré disfrutando de la comida peruana junto a tu familia y amigos gracias al gran servicio! Gracias Jhoselyn por tus atenciones!“

“Pro: The staff is very friendly and attentive, the presentation of the food exceeded my expectations, good music and atmosphere and good quality alcohol. It was a reservation for a birthday, they put out balloons and cake.

Con: the place is not very big, it took a long time to bring the drinks, it was difficult to find parking and the brunch offer on Saturdays only includes drinks.“

“The food was amazing but the noise was so loud. They need to do something about the noise because I want to go back again.“

“The menu is well composed with a great selection to suit every palate. Highly recommend the shrimp and crispy polenta. We ordered mains from both the regular menu and the specials- outstanding all around. Dessert menu is fun with fruity options. Service was tops and ambience simple but sophisticated.“

“Wait staff are attentive. Jing was helpful and able to attend to our request. Sushi is fresh and my mango martini was excellent“

“Former Mi Tierrita restaurant at 252 Main St in Hackensack is the new best place in town to have some great food and quality service. Lorena was very nice and the food was amaizing .not sure about the name of the new restaurant taking place there but can't wait to give a possitive reveiw to this new business.“

“It is a very nice restaurant, clean, not so big, with plenty of parking. The music is varied, on Thursday they had Karaoke in English and Spanish. They have Hooka service, the staff in general is very friendly. The prices at Happy Hour are high.“

“Of all the spots in our hometown of Ramsey, we gravitate most frequently to Bar Boutique. Their staff’s exceptional devotion to their tradecraft sets them apart than any other lounge, bar, or tavern in the area. Most notable are Jackie and Marvin, who are engaging, cordial and above all…skilled at mixology. Before meeting this duo I’d never fully understood the patron-barkeep relationship for all its benefits. We often spend the evenings sipping their delectable concoctions as we speak about our passions for artistic outlets such as photography, comedy, film, and motor sports. Now that I’ve been arriving early for their delicious cuisine, they really are the complete package. Newcomer,Bella, also shows great promise.Their devotion to mentoring recent hires coupled with her obvious proficiency for the service industry is quite apparent. Bravo, Andrew Matarese! You’ve clearly used your eye for talent to assemble a winning team.“

“When I want to go outside or I'm working and need to eat I always try to come here if there is no food at home. This place is amazing.

The food is just delicious, for all the plates I ate here never had this "okay" food it is always tasty and yummy. And the price is another plus, 10$ for a lunch meal, 1 entrance (mostlikely soup) 2nd (usually rice with either chicken or pork) and a cup of drink. (Not soda).

And even when buying other than "special lunch" it is quite heavenly.

Conclusion, it is a great place, amazing good, great service. Now, the only bad thing is the parking, if u eating in the morning I guess there is parking at papays since it is pretty close, but in the afternoon, quite dificult, since it is not recommended to park on popeyes.

Parking: Morning fine, afternoon is dificult to find a parking, without risking it and park at popeyes.

Kid-friendliness: They have this chair for kids. And can ask for little plates for them.

Wheelchair accessibility: Somewhat.“

“You guys are the best. Every time I come, you guys always welcome my family and I. We always have a great time. The food and wine are always perfect.“

“Food is fantastic, the wait staff is wonderful. Love the DJs and Disco Nights on Fridays and Saturdays. Great FUN! Highly recommend. The owner is super nice and the place is huge. It’s the perfect place for a party too.“

“Very good food, staff was extremely helpful and friendly“

“Solid stuff. The buffalo wings are exactly what you want with some good heat attached. The crab cheddar biscuits were soft and had great flavor. Really enjoyed both. No frills caesar salad did not disappoint, either.

I go to the craft shows near the train station every so often and always wondered what the best local food spot is, and I think I found it. Will be back in the future to explore the menu.“

“Dope spot good food and drinks but went to watch sports a couple times and was a little disappointed. Big TVs at the bar but the went for size and not quality. That Walmart special was kind of hard to watch. Didn’t help that they have it set to Cool (blue) so it goes with the blue lit décor of the bar, but definitely come back for the DJ though.“

“Went there for the first time today and it was amazing! Great service and food was delicious! They had large selection of margaritas and desserts. The decor and music was fantastic. Will definitely be back again!“

“Excellent service, friendly staff, great food!“
