“Was just visiting the area and watched the Super Bowl at Gerry's and had great time. Good food, great staff and fun atmosphere. Great TV viewing set up. A fun friendly crowd. Thanks Gerry's for a fun night. (PS They also provided a free halftime buffet of food goodies)“

“My wife and I have dined at the Saddle River Inn many times. The food and service is outstanding. Last night we had crab cake and agnolotti with white truffle cream sauce as appetizers. They were both delicious! I enjoyed the Long Island Duck with lo mein, bok choy, shiitake, scallion, crispy rice, orange hoisin sauce as my entre'e. My wife had a pork chop filet special. While she enjoyed the combination of flavors in the dish, the pork was very "chewy". When she mentioned it to our server, he said that he was aware of it. He said that it was a new dish and had to be "tweaked". He offered to replace her meal but she declined. We shared strawberry cheese cake for desert, which was excellent. Without asking, the cost of my wife's entree was taken off our bill. We were pleasantly surprised by this gracious gesture, and plan to be back soon.“

“An absolutely abundant amount of choices, that All sound so delicious. What an incredibly unique menu. We were definitely overwhelmed on what to have. We had the taco Birria pancakes and mozzarella stick hamburger with mozzarella cheese fries. Both were delicious. The service was great, even though we got there just before closing, they didn't rush us. The inside reminds me of a 50's style dinner, so cool. We can't wait to go back and try other things with friends. Highly recommend if you like unique and creative foods.“

“I have been going to G's for over 20 years. The food is excellent. I love the breakfast burrito with chorizo, and their tortas, and their flautas. Everything thing is outstanding. They make great coffee The service is awesome. Very nice.“

“We are huge fans of Peter Kelly's, but the little things need to be improved. We've gone to Kelly's places since the 90's, and are big believers, and X2O's lunch used to be the best buy in town. Like everything else the price has climbed, and it is no longer a great bargain, but it is still worth every penny at $36. The lunch menu has expanded, and even though we miss the risottos, the selection is ample, and the specials are terrific. What caused the rating to drop from five to four stars are two simple but vital things - the bread, which used to be a highlight, was very mediocre, and the coffee was weak, unusual for X2O. The food was spectacular, but the little things need to return to their usual high level.“

“This place and employees are the best in the business! Chrystal and Rafael handled my sister bday party perfectly! Their service and dedication are beyond appreciated and outstanding! Thank you again for providing us with PERFECT service! Oh and the food was excellent too ?“

“I don't do very many google reviews, but wanted to share my experience at Madison Cafe today. I looked online and ordered a dish for take-out, noting the price of $10 on the menu I looked at. When I got there, a very pleasant guy gave me my order and charged me almost $19. I paid him first, then pointed out my concern about the price discrepancy, and was told that what I saw was a very old menu that was no longer valid. I said that the cafe should honor the price they display to the public on their website and it shouldn't be an issue for the customer if the wrong price is displayed, and asked to have the difference in price reimbursed to me. Understandably, he was not in a position to make that decision, so he called the owner, and after describing the situation put me on the phone with him. He precisely explained this issue that comes up with people taking pictures of menus and putting them on google in a way that is not "authorized" by the cafe, and that they've tried to get google to remove stuff like that, but to no avail. It's understandable how challenging this is for the business owner, and I agreed with the owner's comments about the pricing glitch. Making the decision to keep his customers happy, this fair-minded business owner said that my meal was on the house. He didn't have to do that-I was only asking for the difference to be returned to me, so kudos to this gentleman for his consideration, and I'll certainly patronize his establishment again. Thank you, sir for your gesture. BTW, the food was great!“

“When you travel, you seek to find outstanding restaurants. Sometimes you win, other times, you don't. The Hudson House is a great find, a winner at every turn! From our initial greeting by the owner, Matt, to the great staff who didn't miss a beat, to the most critical part, the food, there wasn't a moment of regret. We started with a couple of tables shares. We had cheese plate with 3 cheeses, homemade fig jam to die for, fresh thinly sliced honeycrisp apples, delicious grapes, and an oil-infused crustini. Perfect start, followed by the burrata and pumpkin seed salad with carmelized pears and sweet potato chunks. I didn't think it could get better after this. I tried the sweet potato and fennel soup, very warm and hearty on a cold night, and the taste was just as I hoped! A beet and farro salad with radishes hit the mark! My partner had a fresh halibut that was cooked to perfection, served on ramen noodles and baby bok choy, with an array of fresh mushrooms, with a gentle but flavorful broth, but not enough to be called soup. To me, one of the best fish dishes I've tasted in a long time. Our guests, the wedding couple, ordered duck breast confit, and hanger steak. The duck, one of her favorites, was tender, most, cooked properly and seasoned well. It was a hit with her and her mother. The hanger steak was the choice of the groom, a very picky eater. He couldn't stop reaching about how amazing it was! Sadly, we were so full, we couldn't eat dessert. All the desserts are homemade by the owner, and they sounded unbelievable. But I'll have to return another time to speak to them. Finally, ask to sit in the jail cell. The pictures tell only some of the story. It's a wine cellar, a hidden romantic getaway, a reprise of days long gone. Or have a seat at the bar with the locals. Or just come and see the beautiful tin ceiling and walls. No matter what you do here, you won't be disappointed.“

“great local spot love it here“

“The meal was perfectly cooked:FlatbreadSalmon (allergy sensitive)LambFilet & lobsterThe service was exceptional, attending to the allergies of my family and ensuring we were all able to enjoy our meals.Deserts were delicious, and left us wanting a little more, portions were small but perfect.Ambiance is little more upscale than average dining.Dietary restrictions: Chef went above and beyond to ensure allergies were catered to.“

“Delicious food and nicely decorated interior. Bathrooms clean and waitstaff friendly. About eight beers on tap, and others, bottled. Parking streetside or in nearby lot. In May 2024, Libertarian presidential candidate Lars Mapstead met supporters at this location.“

“There's a good reason you see so many 5 Star reviews - this place is awesome! The food is fresh, menu is creative and the staff are v nice. I promise anyone that goes that it won't be their last visit.“

“Wanted to try a new place and went here with a friend. We were initially skeptical due to its small exterior. Our doubts were quickly dispelled though by the warm greeting of the host and our attentive waitress, who enthusiastically answered questions, and even brought tasty samples to the table. With timely coffee refills & the relaxed atmosphere this became one of the coziest, best service experiences in recent memory. Will definitely return.“

“Frankie and I love it here. They’re wonderful and make us feel special every time. ❤️ highly recommend“

“Food was delicious! Waitress was so friendly. Prices are fair. This reminds me of a mom and pop breakfast spot and I was happy to give them my business! Definitely recommend stopping in if you're in the area! I would definitely return here.“

“Best food in Yonkers. Try everything your tastebuds will thank you.“

“We frequent Tuck'd Away often and they never disappoint! We just celebrated my son's 30 birthday here with friends and family. Mike and staff did an amazing job. Food, drinks and service were amazing!! I highly recommend!!!“

“We had a wonderful experience having our post-wedding brunch at Mint Premium Foods! We worked closely with Alberta, who created a beautiful, personalized menu with our food and drink selections. The owners stayed on site during the event and were very detailed oriented. Ben and the waiters were attentive and responsive to our requests and even helped move tables so friends could sit together. Alberta played soft background music from the bride's culture to add to the atmosphere. The overall vibe of mint is unique and you feel like you're at a shop/restaurant in the Mediterranean with it displays of gourmet cheeses, olives and bottles of wine.The food at Mint is absolutely delicious, plentiful, perfectly cooked and attractively presented! For our customized brunch, we had four courses: For appetizers, we had family style cheese & charcuterie boards and calamari, followed by individual choice of specialty salad, individual main course and family style desserts (Baklava, Pannacotta, Bread Pudding, Creme Brulee). Everyone raved about the food, from the outstanding cheeses to the Wagyu meat burgers, sandwiches, salads, Moroccan chicken, risotto, etc. We highly recommend Mint for a meal or a place to host a special event!“

“Quick service and good food!!“

“Step into déjà vu restaurant in Garfield New Jersey and enjoy the allure of Balkan food. I started off with some great appetizers and I highly recommend the melted cheese dip. I really enjoyed the chicken rolls wrapped in bacon and stuff with provolone cheese. Don’t skip out on dessert, then Nutella and banana crêpes are homemade and a must try. I also enjoyed a very delicious strawberry margarita. The staff was very attentive, and the restaurant is aesthetically pleasing. The spot is great for a girls night out, date night, a family dinner. It’s also a great spot for a celebration“

“We were looking for seafood in the area. My friend suggested this restaurant. Excellent choice. I had the lobster cognac, melt in your mouth taste with amazing sauce. My son had the filet of sole. Again great flavor and texture. The staff was very nice and accommodating. I will go there again!“

“We live in the neighborhood and go here all the time. Excellent wings and pizza among other bar staples served up by the friendliest staff around. R&H is always a great spot to grab a drink or a casual meal. It’s no surprise business is booming.“

“This review is about Cafeteria at Stone Barns: Lunch Tray. They have one daily menu featuring their produce from the farm. Lunch tray is consist of small plates priced around $50, which sounds a bit pricey for the portions, but I assume the ingredients are fresh and high quality. When I went there, the lunch menu was some pickles, cured meat, taco and bread - everything was sour - even the dessert looking cake was sour. Balance of the meal was a bit disappointing, so got a small apple for $2, which was soggy and bruised inside, but I liked their coffee.It is a beautiful place for a getaway from the city - an hour drive from Manhattan. The lunch tray could be hit or miss since they only offer one set menu, which you don’t know until you get there, but they have pretty outdoor tables surrounded by nice garden. I would come back for another try later.“

“We got the nachos and it was amazing one of the best nachos I’ve ever had it had soooooo much of the good stuff on it and it was packed with the good stuff and layered perfectly not like most places where the top of the chips have everything and then your just left with chips no it had all the good stuff on every chip it was amazing!!!! As well great sports atmosphere people were going nuts for the Knicks game!!!! Did I mention to get the nachos they where ?????“

“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“

“Food was good. The service was not. Our waitress did not smile much. She was playing with her cell phone when I approached to the service desk with computer and other billing stuff. She name starts with a C.I observed how she treated other customers, she was not warm nor smile either. I told myself, it was not me.“

“This a 5 star review because it hit all of the check marks. You simply cannot get the same value you will get here anywhere else.Firstly, the staff is family, and very welcoming and accommodating. They Truly care about the restaurant, its legacy and there foodA very comfortable environment with 80's/90's country music playing and a homey feeling dining room. I felt like I went my cousins for dinner and coffee.Our waitress was one of the owners and helped me select some craft brews they offered. Very generous and appreciated.The Buffalo Wings are excellent. Cooked right and in a thinner sauce with a little zing but not overpowering.Our dinners were the Godfather Trio (Veal, Shrimp Parm and Eggplan Rollantini) and the 16oz Sizzling steak.The Italian Trio was a good portion and had a nice sauce, very filling and a very reasonable price.The Steak was better than some steakhouses and "higher-end" restaurants that like to charge $40-$60 for it.The steak was PERFECT! And for a price point under $30 is one of the best bargains you can find! Flavor was amazing and cooked expertly!We finished with coffee and the Chocolate Mousse Cake & Cheesecake. Well worth it and again; a price you can't beat.We even took home dinners for work the next day. It was that good.This is a Gem and a throw back to how things used to be and should be. Where your welcomed in and treated like a guest in a home and fed a wonderful meal.***Keep in mind - Cash Only But the have anATM on site. Not a big deal.Head in and enjoy. I'll definitely be back!!!“

“When my 5 yr old wants hot dogs randomly i thought of hanks franks from passing by so many times. Why not try it? You get a mom and pop feel. We ordered 2 dogs 1 with ketchup and 1 with cheese and cheesy fries. I have a gluten sensitivity so I took a small bite of the dog and it's great even my lil Eva ate all her fries and the rest of the hot dog. I would definitely go back!“

“My partner and I love ordering from here. We live in the neighborhood and it’s so convenient to have a place like this we can walk to for something delicious at a great price. I don’t think you could go wrong ordering anything off their menu; their pizza is the perfect Jersey pizza, their burritos are huge and taste SO fresh, and their cheeseburgers are like In N Out but WAY better quality. They also have desserts and the chocolate cake I tried was great. Love Aileen’s “

“Great local place for lunch, after work, whenever, or like we recently did - take out. Friendly staff. They have been a mainstay of Tarrytown/Sleepy Hollow since forever.Kid-friendliness: No loud music, not a "bar scene" with rowdy customers.“

“Huuuuuuge Yard House fan - food, atmosphere, beers; awesome. The servers? Pretty hit&miss. Depends on if you like ordering your own stuff or if you need someone to come to your table and order for you.That's why service gets 3* and this place gets an overall 4*. Sometimes you get someone that just comes and refills your water and gets you napkins (which is perfect because food comes directly from the kitchen now) or you get someone who treats you like a child and kills your whole vibe.Best deal at this place: go on a Tuesday between 4:30 and 6, get 50% apps and happy hour. Then walk 50 feet across the mall and go see a $7 movie at AMC with your cheesecake creme brulee you brought with you (which you better clean up and throw out after yourself) then head home nice and sobered up:)“

“Whenever you see the owner behind the counter cooking, good chance the food/service is phenomenal!!! After eating their double bacon Cocina burger I don't feel bloated or sluggish. I feel satisfied! They keep adding deliciousness to the menu. Just tried the mozzarella sticks....OMG was not ready for the crunchy cheesy heaven. They also got the chimi de pernil... Haven't tried it yet but it's next on my list. I already know it will be delightful!!!! No para SIGUE SIGUE. Cocina burger, best burgers in YONKERS!!!!!!!!“

“We came with a group to celebrate a great friends promotion…which was also a surprise wedding proposal for her. Marc was extremely accommodating and Kristina, who was our server as well as the manager was beyond amazing. She was on point and went well beyond to make our experience awesome…all while handling another large group. I cannot express enough how thankful we are and what a great experience we had! Thank you Blackjacks!!!“

“I had such a great brunch there. The breakfast burger was amazingly delicious. The staff was friendly. Pleasant place to go eat. Then I ended up taking my cousin there for lunch a couple weeks later. I recommend this restaurant to all!“

“Mandatory tip of 20% if you spend over $100 with a credit card. They don’t tell you, so a lot of my friends and colleagues were double tipping for over a year - the staff doesn’t say anything. Otherwise, best vibes of any bar, amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing music, amazing ambiance.“

“Went for a nice breakfast. Tara was very nice and attentive and quick turnaround on the food. Eggs were good and had flavor. Home fries were properly cooked and delicious, and the waffle had a crunch on the outside and soft on the inside. Will definitely recommend but they only accept cash payment.“

“First time I ordered 5 sevings Oxtail w plantains for my visitors, the following day Rasta Pasta for me. I must say the Oxtail didn't make it past 1 hour of serving, the Rasta Pasta was shrimp was for me alone what a pleasure to my taste buds.Wheelchair accessibility: Level with the sidewalk entrance.“

“My favorite go to. From omelets to sandwiches and everything in between. Fresh and delicious every time. Love it!! Great guys, great chefs. You can order anything and they will prepare it perfectly. Even if it's not on the menu. They have tables and TVs for dining in or just hanging out in a great atmosphere. Definitely worth trying. You won't be disappointed.“

“Great Place,Great Food,Very Friendly people working, Been there 3 times in two weeks and have had nothing but good things to say. Thanks for a great experience“

“Amazing service by the staff at Sweet Grass Grill. I was able to visit for lunch and pictured the blood orange margarita, mushroom cheesesteak and chicken sandwich with the kale Caesar. Their beet ketchup was truly amazing. Everything was delicious. The service was super attentive even with a busy lunch rush during the week. Reservations are recommended. Stop by at Sweet Grass for a quick meal and leave feeling satisfied. Looking forward to stopping by again“

“The food here is very good. I personally like their "Ropa Vieja" dish. They make it excellent!“

“Outstanding breakfast. Mother's Day plans fell through last minute and looked at local spots to order breakfast from for takeout. Challah French Toast, turkey bacon/egg/cheese sandwich, chocolate chip pancakes - all top notch. From time I ordered through Door Dash order was ready for pickup in 20 min. Saved our Mother's Day morning and will definitely be ordering from here again!“

“their salads & pizzas are great!“

“Food was delicious & so were the drinks. Place was nice and cozy. Waiters were mad cool and very attentive to us. First time being there and I will def return. I was happy to see my boy Daniel.“

“Kim is personable ,caring ,loving and faithful to Jesus so that’s what’s makes an incredible person. And an exceptional bartender /Waitess she is loves and a true friend to see each time I come to Houlihans and even when it’s months I don’t see her for she back to where it all began !“

“Bendix diner is like stepping back into time. It's nice to see an old school diner like this. Don't let it's facade fool you into thinking that the food is greasy or average. Quite the contrary, the quality of food is very good, the portions are of good size and the prices are reasonable. There are artisan hot sauces on each table and counter, the syrup is maple syrup only but with cool flavors like Madagascar vanilla, cinnamon, habanero and others. Also the tea, they use premium tea leaves. All of that struck me as odd in a good way. The owner John and his son Michael are wonderful. They are attentive and provide good service. Their food is excellent. I had a turkey club there that rivaled 4 star hotel restaurants. It's truly a hidden gem“

“The food was sooo good!Very interesting menu, too.I'm vegan and our server was great with helping me choose what to order. He went into the back several times to make sure what I was ordering was OK for me to eat. Will be going back ♡“

“I've been to a lot of bagel places through NYC, Jersey, and Westchester, and this little spot is really a great place. Good bagels by themselves, and they also do a good job with putting together their bagel sandwiches as well. Highly recommended!!Vegetarian options: Your standard veg bagel options, and they make a particularly good egg and cheese“

“i have family who are seniors that live nearby, i go and visit them at least twice a year and thios is where we go every single time....driving by plenty of other spots on the way. Its basically bar food but the best that bar food gets, the service is friendy and accommodating. on weekends i think we were even turned away without a reservation once, so check to be sure.“

“Amazing steak. Great service.“
