Great food very well made and very nice owners. I’d say the chef is really passionate about his food.”. I don’t leave very close but I frequently find a way to stop by and enjoy their food and usually take some extra food away. The menu is definitely authentic Romanian, although there are a few Central European specialities and American style items as well for those interested.

Ryan's BBQ is without a doubt one of the best restaurants in the area. Their food is consistently high quality, full of flavor, and prepared to perfection. The owners are also very friendly and take great pride in their work.I strongly recommend the kielbasa sandwich: the combination of wasabi sauce (a creamy sauce with a little wasabi kick) and cabbage salad is incredible. And if you'd like something sweet, try the salam de biscuiti: this is a traditional Romanian dessert (that also has roots in Portugal and Italy) made from biscuits, raisins, Turkish delight, and chocolate sure to satisfy anyone's sweet tooth!

Chicken was very dry and didn't have any flavor . Chicken is expensive . The rice was hard . The roast potatoes and the mashed root vegetables were okay .

Best barbecue in Lyndhurst and area. Delicious fall off the bone ribs, perfectly roasted chicken and reliably tasty sides. The best thing I can say about Ryan's BBQ is that they would do just fine in Austin, Texas.

Cozy Romanian kitchen with friendly owners. Try the chicken platter or beef stew. The pea soup is a tasty starter.

I went there twice to try it. the food is terrible!! Tried several dishes and they were all gross! They use a microwave oven to reheat my food. the ceiling had things falling, it looked disgusting. I'm a very good Romanian cook at home and I like to make authentic Romanian dishes all the time, but sometimes I'm lazy and want to go out and try other dishes, most of the time I compare the dishes with my dishes. and when I do I'm completely unsatisfied. this place was more than unsatisfactory it was my real word DISGUSTING!! Run and don't look back at this place!! I also forgot to mention the service, the chef was a very friendly man, seemed to want us customers and took pride in his cooking. the wife,,, was terrible at work, she seemed to hate people with her terrible look. When we walked in she looked at us like what the hell are you doing here? my wife and i had the same feeling. Run and don't look back unless you want to be unhappy, disappointed and angry that you went there!!! Am fost acolo de două ori să-l încerc. mancarea este groaznica!! Am încercat mai multe feluri de mâncare și toate au fost nasol! folosesc un cuptor cu microunde pentru a-mi reîncălzi mâncarea. tavanul avea lucruri căzute, părea dezgustător. Sunt un bucătar român foarte bun acasă și îmi place să fac mâncăruri românești autentice tot timpul, dar uneori îmi este lene și vreau să ies și să încerc alte feluri de mâncare, de cele mai multe ori compar preparatele cu preparatele mele. iar când o fac sunt complet nemulțumit. acest loc a fost mai mult decât nesatisfăcător, a fost adevăratul meu cuvânt DEZGUSTANT!! Fugi și nu te uita înapoi la acest loc!! De asemenea, am uitat să menționez serviciul, bucătarul era un om foarte prietenos, părea că ne vrea clienți și era mândru de gătitul lui. soția,,, era groaznică la serviciu, părea că urăște oamenii cu privirea ei groaznică. Când am intrat, ia s-a uitat la noi de parcă ce dracu faceți aici? eu și soția mea am avut același sentiment. Fugi și nu te uita înapoi decât dacă vrei să fii nemulțumit, dezamăgit și supărat că ai mers acolo!!!

Delicious authentic Romanian food, very friendly staff and excellent service always. I’ll always come back to this place every time I’m back to NJ.

Very clean, friendly, and welcoming place; however, the food was mediocre at best, as the chicken was bland and undercooked (it was actually pink) and the rice was dry. It is local, though, so I will probably try it again, but with a different dish.
