“Great food and customer service. Will be back. Mouth watering spicy pork and garlic sauce. Fire sauce is amazing as long as you are aware it's spicy for normal taste buds. The ambiance was greet with plenty of tables for the space and a small corner for individual goers“
“Was looking for a spot near the Prudential Center to accommodate a group of 9 - on a Saturday afternoon after a Devils game and before a Seton Hall game. After striking out at a few nearby places, I was so lucky to walk into Mad for Chicken and see a large table near the door. The staff was top notch and so accommodating as the rest of the group trickled in. We never waited long for fresh drinks and our food order came out hot and quickly. The rest of the bar was pretty busy, and we never felt like a burden or rushed. It worked out perfectly, and I will choose Mad for Chicken for future trips to Newark.“
“Really enjoyed my meal. There were a lot of meat and veggie choices, and liked cooking on the Korean grill and hot pot. I got the seafood soup, and it was great. My favorite were the bulgogi, short ribs, and the prime ribeye steak! Washed everything down with some cold soju. Service was great. The place had a modern, friendly vibe to it. Had a great time!“
“I recently brought Don chicken's fried chicken to my friend's birthday party, and it was an absolute hit! The soy garlic chicken was incredibly crispy and bursting with flavor, earning praise from everyone at the gathering. This chicken is versatile enough to be enjoyed both as a meal and for catering events. Also, when I went to pick up the food, the store was clean and the staff were exceptionally kind and accommodating. It's clear that prioritizes cleanliness and customer service, making it the perfect choice for any occasion ! Highly recommend !“
“We had early reservations tonight and we were the first diners. When we walked in the waitress told us that we had to be done in 90 minutes. My wife and I are fairly quick eaters. But when I hear something like that it can suck the enjoyment out of the dining experience.Putting that aside, we had great appetizers and main dishes. The deserts were not on par with the previous two courses.We have eaten at Bloom several times since the summer time and had enjoyed it. I don’t think that we will be rushing back.“
“Nice atmosphere and good service! Tteokbokki was too salty and the flavor was just alright. Minari pancake and bulgogi cream perilla pasta were good. Pine nut salad and grilled branzino risotto were great. Sweet potato cake dessert was okay.“
“Greeted immediately upon entering even though they were full already. Server was respectful and grateful for the business. A+ customer service. We got our food to go and we got home approx 45 min later. Food was still warm, crispy, and juicy. Taste was phenomenal. Highly recommend this place.“
“Highly recommend! Food is delicious and portions are shareable depending on hunger level! Everything was nice and crispy! Ordered french fries, onion rings, and small orders of sweet and spicy wings (10), crispy chicken drumsticks (5) and hot and spicy boneless chicken (about 12 pieces or so). Will definitely be coming back!“

“First time there and the experience was exhilarating. Our Server Kai was patient, attentive and seemed excited explaining to us how to order and use the equipment as well as to show us where the sauce bar is located. The location is clean and the environment was welcoming. Thank you for the experience.“
“Sorry for the lack of photos for the review. This is my second time here and let me say it was better than the first time, the potato corn dog got bigger??!! Wings were fantastic and the tteokbokki was chewy and spicy. Please keep up the consistency for which koreans are amazing for.“
“Amazing food here! ? while going to the American Dream mall and wanted to eat Korean food. We found this gem! The MUST TRY dish is the SEAFOOD PANCAKE! It's so delicious, crispy, and tasty! This is the best haemul pajeon (seafood pancake) I have never had in NJ. I could never make so crispy pancake at home! Their spicy squid on rice in a hot stone pot was so yummy! I hope this restaurant is closer to where I live!Parking: It's located on a bust street. I think there is no parking on site. We parked on a paid meter.“
“This place is WONDERFUL. I came here with my son after spending the afternoon at Urban Air Adventure Park. We got two half box orders of boneless thighs (original crispy and soy garlic/sweet & spicy), fries, and water. The chicken took about 15-20 minutes to cook, but it was well worth the wait. My son (the pickiest eater in the world) LOVED the boneless thighs, and even the French fries. I thought everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flavors were all fantastic, with the soy garlic being my favorite. The fries were also some of the best fries I've ever had. Super crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The food also came with Cole slaw which was DELICIOUS, and I say this as someone who normally strays away from Cole slaw.Customer service was excellent. The woman at the front was very friendly and clear with describing the food. Their presentation was top notch also. The food was packaged beautifully and even the bag it came in was just really well designed. It was like opening a holiday gift of delicious food. I would highly recommend paying this place a visit, although you'll probably have to do take out since they have limited seating. That's probably the only downside I can think of, but they still deserve 5 stars overall“
“I started eating sushi right about the time I started dating. This puts me at around 20 years old. Fairly late to the game, but hey, acne sucks. Took me awhile to figure out washing excessively is just as bad as being a greasy kid. So yea, I was about 20 years old & still trying to get past a goalie, if you know what I mean.The first time I had sushi was at a restaurant in Newport. I only went there because my brother recommended it & he explained I needed to order specific sushi rolls. He knew I was a beginner so he told me to get a California Roll, Spicy Tuna as well as a few others. My memory is that of a goldfish, so to this day I still only remember Cali/Tuna rolls. Nonetheless, the sushi during that date was a hit, even if I wasn't.I kept at it, like a relentless paramour. Date after date I devoured sushi. What I started noticing was that ordering was better left to the date, as I almost always ordered something weird. Cali/Tuna were always there for me to make me appear somewhat knowledgeable, but anything other than that was beyond my mental capacity.Eventually I found a girl who knew how to order. Literally every single time I went out for sushi with her it was a mouth watering delight. So of course, I had to marry this broad. You don't let these get away. So I got her a diamond, they said it was conflict free, & to this day we make it a point to get sushi at least once a week.After finding the girl, there are certain prerogatives you must take in life. If my first was my fiancé, then the 2nd one was a sushi restaurant. Everyone has one, so this quest to discover mine took precedence over all else. Having found my lady, it was up to her to guide me through the myriad restaurants that the tri-state area had to offer. I of course would never be able to do so. So she fulfilled her role.Itto Sushi is just a few blocks away from our apartment. I'm actually functionally illiterate when it comes to maps. Even GPS will not save me from starving to death if it ever came down to it. So my fiancé lets me track her on her phone. No, it's not a trust thing, it's literally a safety thing. I get lost going to the bathroom. I only mention this because of how convenient it was when she said just come to where I am. And that's how I ended up in Itto Sushi.The restaurant itself is not overwhelmingly large. It's a nice comfortable size, where even I won't get lost going to the restroom. The sushi bar is towards the back & you can see all the fresh ingredients laid out ready to be served. There are always multiple chefs working, which I've learned are called Itamaes & Shokunins. These guys are truly worthy of their titles.I don't even bother looking at the menu. My fiancé does her job. She rips through 4 rolls & at least 2 Sashimis. Since I've become a regular at Itto, I've learned how to properly beg for a 5th. To this day I still have not been able to convince her to get 6 rolls. Truth is, my belly can only really handle 5, but I may be somewhat of an addict at this point.Itto Sushi' sushi is literally the freshest I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. Their sashimi is also at that level. Both my fiance & I marvel at the relentless & assorted Unami that Itto offers. It's gotten to the point that we literally judge any other sushi place we go to with how well they match up against Itto. No one comes close.So I have my future bride, who in turn got me my sushi spot. I got it made. I'm scoring goals left & right here. Now all that remains is my mission to get that 6th roll. I mean, how do you say no to a cool little boat filled to the brim with sushi? You can't. You simply can't at Itto. The battle to discover my sushi spot has been won, but the war for that 6th roll rages on.“
“Dining here was a wonderful experience. The rolls were delicious (the Jersey Roll was out of this world), the service was top tier, and the staff were so friendly. One of us left our phones behind by mistake. When we got back we were greeted warmly and even given two mochi ice cream desserts on the house. We will absolutely be returning.“
“Best Kimchi I've ever had. They have so much to choose from other than kimchi as well. Everything I've ever tried there has made me want to go back and get more. Love this place and love that they have a jar deposit as well so they are helping reduce waste.Overall excellent staff, great food, and well run business. What more could you ask for?“
“Love spicy chicken. The best K chicken ever so far. Drive 1 hr to satisfy and manage my chicken craving. And alway works???. If you get luck, you can park right in front of the store and have a steamy hot crispy juicy yummy yumyum chicken piece or 2 in the car. My lucky day was today. ?Try!!! Dont forget to grab a tea with pearls and jelly. Wish opening no. 2 in north bergen.“
“This man truly knows flavor. He is one of the most talented Chefs I have had the pleasure of eating a meal from. He ensures you are leaving happy and full! AND he was on TV, it was so cool to have a celebrity chef cook an amazing meal for me!“
“Tasty and fresh food, unique delisious salads, prices are reasonable, aiming to please. Parking is easy- big help. Overall whole experience is enjoyable. Highly recommended for casual dining and parties as well. Definitely is going back!!! “
“This is my go to (and my son’s) all the time. My absolute favorite are the shrimp buns. My son gets the shrimp buns and the beef bulgogi is his main course. I sometime splurge and get the 3+2 garlic and soy sauce flavored wings and drumsticks. What I love is both freshness, taste and consistency. It’s a husband and wife small business so also love being able to help our local economy. It sure helps they’re so pleasant. Their prices and portions are above average compared to similar businesses. Definitely recommend. I wish they had longer hours!!!“
“Relatively small restaurant, with high-quality Korean fare. We got short ribs and beef bulgogi, which both were served sizzling hot on cast iron griddles. Tasty soup was provided (on the house) with our dumpling appetizer. Both entrees were offered with a specification of spice/heat level from "1" to "5". The "4" was pleasantly spicy and not overwhelming.Would highly recommend visiting but you may want to call in advance for large groups considering their small seating capacity at any moment.“
“I absolutely love this place. I have a very bad case of long covid since October 2021 where almost everything smells and tastes rotten or sickly sweet. I am able to eat the hot pot miso ramen soup with a lot of different vegetables, and I can have the chocolate cake/cupcakes. So delicious! I can also eat the white rice and the grilled pineapples. Before finding out that I can have all of this, I was losing a massive amount of weight, thank God for the few things that I can have here, I’m able to maintain my weight now. I just tend to go a bit crazy with what I can eat because I’m so hungry from not really eating the other days. The workers are amazing. The manager, Justin is really nice and very funny. The owner Darin is also very nice. Love the atmosphere and the music, I still can’t eat the other things and the smells from the other foods still bother me but I deal with it just so I can eat what I’m actually enjoying there. Thanks kpot for being the first restaurant where I’m actually eating some things that I can enjoy. Highly recommend this place, especially this location. Twenty stars“
“Everything we ordered was top notch: a special roll, a cooked gourd roll, and a sushi combo. I’m a little obsessed with the wasabi mayo as well. Excited to go back again!Vegetarian options: There is a whole veggie roll section, but if the kanpayo roll is any indication of the rest of the veggie options, run, don’t walk. My partner loved the tamago off my sushi special as well.“
“The best in all of jersey. First of all the staff is beyond amazing. The price is perfect and can I say CLEAN!!!!! They have the most sweetest professional and extremely attentive and hardworking staff. Everything is fresh. Go there at least 2 times a week and every time we’re greeted with warmth. Please check this place out and make sure it succeeds forever. 5 stars is never enough for them. They need 10 stars.“

“Bunsik is like a Korean diner. After a long day at a conference we were looking for something warm, filling, and tasty. Mom suggested we give this a try. We ordered shrimp fried rice, fried fish platter, and kimchi fried rice with ham and eggs and ribs. The shrimp fried rice was a smidge bland but soy sauce fixed that. Everything tasted freshly prepared. The fish and their version of tartar sauce was perfectly fried and tasty. Great crunch. My kimchi was a smidge spicey but not unbearable and it was good eating. We had leftovers. I normally make my own kimchi casserole but I'd happily eat Bunsik's! Service was ok. It got better as the meal went on.“
“ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. My wife and I came here for a quick lunch. Although inside was not busy it felt very comfortable to eat in. We came during lunch hour when prices are at a discountI ordered the beef with rice lunch special and THE TASTE WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD. By far my fav. Only minimal comment I can make is that I wish my dish came in the same fancy stone bowl my wife got with her Teriyaki chicken over rice. Mine came in a long brown takeout box.As mentioned my wife got the teriyaki chicken over rice and 10/10 the flavor was delicious as were the vegetables.We also ordered chicken katsu Bao buns and Pork Bao Buns. Chicken was very tasty, but when I unwrapped my pork Bao bun it almost looked like we received the beef Bao bun as the cut of meat on the bun looked exactly like the beef I had with my lunch special dish. I imagined the pork being a crispy pork belly piece.All in all this place was very good and I plan to come back again. I am looking forward to ordering the pork Bao bun again to see if the meat is supposed to look like the beef or if it’s an actual crispy pork belly piece(s).“
“I am IN LOVE with this place! Some of my classmates go there frequently and so do I. It's a great place to chill, order food, and AMAZING boba!!! It's not like other boba places that have boba teas like Oreo, brown sugar or others like those. They have ones that are tropical such as, strawberry, banana, mango, and more that are delicious!“
“Went here after a night of drinking. Was completely hungover and I felt terrible!This definitely is my go to spot now. The pear juice brought life back into me. The ramen was so good and the gimbap was great. The owner was pretty dang sweet as well. My only issue was the Kpop in the background. That made us both dizzy and gave me a headache but the food was ??My partner got the fried chicken and that was great too. Not too oily. Not heavy. Light and crispy and so good! He’s Korean and when he had it, he gave me the ? so you know this place is great.In fact I just placed an order on Ubereats and I’m waiting for my meal as I type!“
“The sushi at this restaurant is delightful!. From the sashimi to the creative rolls, each dish is really god The ambiance is serene, and the attentive service enhances the overall dining experience. A must try for sushi enthusiasts!Wheelchair accessibility: yes“
“Stumbled upon this place on the way out of Nutley. Saw a sign that says Korean bbq, and that was the seller for me. A bit dark inside. The wait staff or I guess the owner is very attentive. Food is reasonable priced and good. If you're craving Korean food I suggest you try this place.“
“this place is a hidden gem!!! the bulgogi bowls are always so delicious and tender, and the service is consistently amazing!! this sweet young lady even gave me a new item on their menu to try for free! i recommend to everyone!! ☺️☺️“
