“Aden was an incredible server. The food was out of this world! The flavors blended together seamlessly! The riblets and the lemon Cole slaw, and the chimichurri was the best I’ve had yet!! And btw you’ll thank me later but the solan ice cream must be what the manna tasted like 3300 years ago”

“Juan Dulce does desserts right. The hospitality that you receive the minute you walk in is what missing in many places. He has amazing empanadas and an amazing breakfast sandwich. Oh and such a good tres leche, can’t say there something I don’t like and trust me I’ve tasted them all!”

“Had a wonderful experience at Dodona Restaurant in Cliffside Park, NJ! The Albanian food was delicious, authentic, and full of flavor. Everything was great, and the atmosphere made the experience even better. The music was fantastic and created such a nice vibe! A special thank you to our waiter, Labi, for the excellent service, friendliness, and attention. He made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend Dodona to anyone looking for great Albanian food, good music, and a wonderful atmosphere. Definitely coming back!”

“The Best Burger in New Jersey! 🍔🔥 This guy just made the most delicious burger right in front of me! I highly recommend trying the Santa Fe. Absolutely unbelievable! Fresh meat, fresh tomatoes, fresh lettuce, very thinly sliced onions—and he even cuts a fresh avocado right in front of you instead of using those pre-sliced, refrigerated ones. I mean, everything was fresh and delicious! You can really taste the difference. Honestly, I would give it 10 stars if I could. The JOJO Burger definitely deserves it!”

We rented the entire upstairs private floor with a cash bar, and it worked out beautifully. They catered the event, and the food was absolutely phenomenal, with plenty of menu options to choose from. If you're searching for a venue to host your next event, I highly recommend considering 690—it’s a fantastic choice!”

“I need to say that Renee and Carrie are amazing! Very amazing service, being able to be answered in French at the boutique was amazing! I drove twice in 2 days to grab cupcakes and cookies… I cannot say what’s my favourite out of the cupcake, the brownies, the cookies etc because everything was decadent and not too sweet. You taste the quality of the ingredients and the love they put while cooking them. The fact that Carrie was answering me while the business is close is a sign that she’s passionate and that she care about her client. They’re on the expensive side compared to other bakery, but once you compare you understand why… You taste the butter in everything! If you like some fluffy, moist, creamy cupcake this is your place… While planning my wedding, I’ve compared a few bakery and non are as good as this one… Thank you for the amazing experience and taste!”

“I really wanted to love this place. This was my second visit, and while there are a lot of things they do well, there are still some areas that need improvement. Food: As a Korean, I thought the chicken itself was really good. It was crispy, and I liked that they offer so many sauce options. My favorites were the Sweet & Sour and Spicy Garlic. The Smoky K-BBQ, it was meh- it wasn’t sweet, spicy, or smoky enough and tasted pretty bland. The SOS Spicy was extremely spicy (Buldak-level), so keep that in mind if you’re sensitive to heat. I’ve tried a lot of Korean fried chicken spots in NJ, and I’d honestly rank this as one of the better ones. My biggest complaint is the sauce application. The chicken wasn’t coated evenly, with a lot of bare spots, and they weren’t very generous with the sauce, so there wasn’t enough to coat the pieces that were left plain. The Blooming Onion was tasty but a little too greasy.The dipping sauce was also meh. The Korean Corn Ribs were good, but the portion felt small for the price. Service: This has been the biggest issue on both of my visits. They gave me an estimated pickup time, and I arrived after that, but my order still wasn’t ready. I ended up waiting another 5+ minutes even though I was the only customer there. I know it’s World Cup season and everyone wants to watch the games, but the cooks were watching soccer while cooking instead of focusing on the orders. It gave the impression that the kitchen wasn’t paying full attention. Overall, this is a good spot with some really solid food, but it has plenty of room for improvement. I hope the manager sees this review because with a little more attention to consistency and service, this place could easily become one of the best Korean fried chicken spots in the area.”

“Me having been in the this neighborhood five year, I would walk past this local bar regularly but recently I had noticed some construction inside followed by a name change. It got my attent but wasn't until a few months that I didn't actually go in and Covid did play a factor but man am I glad I did!!! Amy"s warm, genuine and warm greeting was a pleasant surprise. Then immediately you notice the open air lofty feel but with ever thing you expect in a classics traditional American bar. The perfectly sized newly constructed bar as you walk in on the right. Two midsize new pool table, the wall mounted monitor that can be seen from all angles, a perfect located dart board. But wait there is more. Amy who talked to us briefly about the new owners vision gave us the 5 cent tour ending it with the back yard. An oasis of a outdoor gathering area with tables, chairs and heater for those cool spring and summer nights entirely cover but a gazebo. Folks, Brass Rail 2 means business, they are built for you to come enjoy a beer watch baseball game on any of the monitors, play a game of pool, shoot some darts or just come and socialize with your friends or neighbors. Congratulations on building a nice local American Bar look I'm forward to spending time there unwinding after a good days work.”

I usually don’t go eat at Colombian or taco spots but today I waltzed in here, and everything I ate was absolutely delicious. I ordered what the nice lady recommended. The pork loin lunch special and birria tacos. Just fantastic. Portion size is great, pricing super fair, the two ladies working there were so sweet. Seriously a solid 9.6/10 (I never give 10s). I’ll def be back. Such a hidden gem”
