“Place is wonderful, great atmosphere, they will squeeze you in regardless of how busy they are. Btw this is our second day in a row eating here. We woke up this morning and couldn’t stop thinking about yesterday’s lunch. Dinner was amazing….hidden gem. BYOB ❤️“
“The 4.8 rating after 185 reviews made me question this restaurant. How could they have that high of a rating with such a large sample size. After going there I’m on the hunt to find those individuals that made this score not a perfect 5. Service was exceptional (especially when considering the normal pricing). Sushi quality was the best I’ve ever had in every food I ate (miso soup wasn’t too salty). Complimentary miso and a roll from the chef. There is not a single thing I could complain about and I look forward to giving this establishment as much business as possible.“
“This location is hands-down a high-quality place. I'm currently in grad school, and this place has never failed me when I order something to go. I've tried most of the main dishes and they are all great. The food has lots of flavor and is always served hot. When I order delivery, the order is always delivered quickly and the customer service is great. I highly recommend everyone in the neighborhood give this place a try.“
“Came here on a cold Wednesday night and absolutely was blown away by their ramen. Specifically the Tabata ramen was top notch!! On the menu it notes that the Tabata ramen is spicy but it is not (I don't tolerate spicy foods well so was hesitant to order). It was amazing and the service was quick and friendly. I usually like trying different ramen places every time I get it but will definitely return and make this an UES staple restaurant for me!“
“The service attitude is very good. She kept asking us if it suits our taste. I think it is very considerate. The lady has a very good service attitude. She helped us take photos and gave guidance. The food is delicious. I recommend the Pad Thai the most.“
“Upon arriving on March 14, 2024 at 6:45pm, I was 0kindly greeted by two very polite and courteous servers. The food was exceptional and so was the service. I will be going back and bringing others with me. I so appreciated the hospitality. KUDO! ❤️ ?Vegetarian options: Great meal with sesame string beans.“
“This place has the best jok bal (pork feet) in Fort Lee/Cliffside Park.Also recommend their pork bone soup with potatoes - it's hearty and not too spicy, yet full of flavors. However it's not the best I've had.Price is fair and service is friendly. Plenty of parking in the plaza nearby. May need to wait on weekends.“
“Super tasty batten ramen, I like it and the appetizers are delicious, it’s funny that they have Manga for foreigners since we don’t know the language! (There should be something for all languages.?) But the food is very delicious, I faithfully recommend it..“
“Absolutely love this place, my boyfriend and I wanted sushi and we found this place on google, we went there for dinner one night and we have been back to it since then. Amazing fresh and delicious food, and most importantly the service is beyond amazing, they greet you with such kindness and are very attentive of you.“
“Went to Thai at Lex with a friend and ordered chicken pad Thai with a side order of spring rolls and thai iced tea. We had a pleasant server and enjoyed the atmosphere. The place had good traffic in the take out section and that gave me a sense that people like the food. I would definitely go again when I'm in the area.“
“The attentive staff and friendly owner set this restaurant apart from others of its kind by making me feel at home. I've enjoyed several of their chicken dishes and the vegetables are cooked nicely. If you're there at the right time you can get fresh homemade shrimp chips or a jelly dessert! Students from nearby high schools dine in as well. Would recommend a visit if you're in the area.“
“Ban Ban Shop is a very cute fusion restaurant that opened across from Columbia University that serves a banh mi, baos, rice bowls, maki rolls, and grain bowls. 3.5 stars: I was very excited to try the banh mi here, but was lowkey disappointed. I ordered the Five Spice Roasted Pork Banh Mi. Don't get me wrong, the pork is very well seasoned/marinated and tender. Unfortunately, the baguette here is too soft, and the oil from the pork does seep through. The key to a good banh mi is the baguette - light on the inside with a thin and crispy crust. You'll know the baguette is good when the roof of your mouth gets destroyed by the time you finish it.“
“Their Sauce that they sell is good but TOO SWEET for my taste. I wish they will Fix their Ingredient Label, you can see there is Sugar but not sure if there are other words not visible. I Loved the thick Skinned Dumplings, this way it will not break when I Boil it in hot water.Vegetarian options: They had Veggies Dumplings in the Freezer.“
“Menya Sandaime Ramen offers a delightful culinary experience with their flavorful ramen and exceptional service. The rich, savory broth paired with perfectly cooked noodles creates a delicious combination that keeps you coming back for more. The attentive and friendly staff add to the overall dining pleasure, making it a must-visit spot for any ramen enthusiast.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian ramen option“
“Allow me to extol the virtues of my recent dining experience at Raku Izakaya, an establishment that exquisitely marries culinary mastery with impeccable hospitality. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.Raku Izakaya's menu is a symphony of flavors, expertly curated to delight even the most discerning palate. Each dish presented an artful fusion of traditional Japanese techniques with contemporary flair, showcasing the chef's dedication to both tradition and innovation. From delicate sushi rolls bursting with freshness to robust izakaya-style small plates brimming with bold flavors, every bite was a revelation.Yet, it is not only the exceptional cuisine that distinguishes Raku Izakaya, but also the impeccable service and attention to detail. The staff exhibited a genuine passion for their craft, effortlessly guiding me through the menu and ensuring that every aspect of my dining experience exceeded expectations.As I reflect on my time at Raku Izakaya, I am filled with a sense of gratitude for having had the opportunity to partake in such an exceptional culinary journey. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend Raku Izakaya to anyone seeking an unparalleled dining experience that transcends mere sustenance to become a true culinary adventure.“
“Everything about this experience was top notch: food, service, and atmosphere. Everything about the place really lets the food shine, though. We had the sushi plates where the chef chooses. Every bite was better than the last. If I had one note, it would be to please tell me what everything is when setting the plate down! I thought I knew, but quickly realized that I wasn't familiar with everything. I'll have to go back soon so I can try it all again and ask.“
“Loveddd the spicy popcorn chicken! I should gotten the large. Very flavorful, there is a definite kick and a burn to the sauce. I will definitely return to try the original flavor and get the large popcorn chicken again. The cashier was very polite and I appreciated the care she applied to packaging my order.I hope everyone has a great new year.“
“So fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Not too oily/greasy.Surprisingly good for a smaller, unassuming Chinese takeout place.There are a few tables for waiting or dining.Parking was a little tricky.Parking: A few spots in front, but most are in rear, I think.“
“(4.5 stars) Extremely attentive service, quiet and relaxed yet intricate ambience. The food was very reasonably priced (for NY prices) for modern Chinese cuisine. Favorite dish was probably the lychee shrimp balls in both taste and presentation. We also ordered the mushroom pancakes (it was ok) and Peking duck. The Peking duck was a bit smaller in portion than what we had expected (seems less than a half), and taste is also on the mid to lower end compared to other similar modern Chinese cuisines.“
“So Kong Dong is one of my favorite Korean restaurants. It's homey, comforting, and the prices are extremely fair for both the quantity and quality. I would highly recommend the squid dolsot (a hot stone bibimbap, where the stone bowl sizzles and browns the rice on the bottom)! This dish was only ~$20, which I thought was fair for the value and absolutely delicious. They don't skimp on the squid either, which can be a sticking point sometimes at other restaurants. Overall, amazing experience. Down to earth, excellent quality, and an all around great place. Don't skip on So Kong Dong the next time you're in Fort Lee!“
“Best hidden gem at Pelham. My family and I come here at least twice every week. Every time we come here, we are always greeted by smiles of the waitress and feel so welcomed. They talk to us like we are friends and always have a good time here. When we order rolls or sushi, the fish is always so fresh. Every single single time. Does not disappoint. The angel roll is a must try, so delicious and such a nice blend and balance of flavors. All of the kitchen foods are so flavorful and delicious. There really isn't a place. My go to sushi place.“
“This place always seems to be busy. So I finally got a chance to check it out. Even though they didn't have what I wanted on the menu they customize my order just how I want it!! I really appreciate that, the staff was very friendly and nice!“
“Bonchon is THE brand for a reason. Great Korean chicken, always hits the spot, consistent. Very crispy without ever being crunchy. Very flavorful without really sticky fingers.It takes a while longer than other wings to cook, but it's worth the wait.“
“Been 20 years in NY, and tried tons of Ramen Shop, and devastated when i didn’t get the taste of Authenticity.And i’ve met this Japanese guy and ask, if he can recommend a taste if Japan Ramen.After i told him my experience of trying some Ramen,, and that’s it! When he told me NARUTO, you will love it, he said. And from then, i only go to Naruto“
“My friend ordered from here takeout while I was with her. I tried a whole bunch of different foods she bought for like $55 worth. They were all very good from 5 different dishes I tried.Parking: Maybe 7 spots of parking but that's good enough. I think there are spots across the street too. I wasn't paying that much attention because it was a spontaneous visit.“
“This is definitely one of the best Korean restaurants in Fort Lee. The dumplings were so flavorful and juicy, you definitely need to try them! My main meal was kimichi soondubu and the flavor was so powerful and delicious I can’t wait to eat it again!!! It was also served with a side of pork from the grill and rice. I can’t wait to come back and try the 5 course meal. Truly this restaurant is a gem, the pictures speak for themselves. 5/5! ?“

“We usually don’t lost reviews, but what a great overall Asian fare. Consistent. Good food. Many options. Reliable, and the service is unmatched. Thomas always takes care of us — and we have a plethora of allergies and “special requests.” Really hard working people in a great atmosphere at reasonable prices. Great for people with celiac or gluten sensitivity.“
“The ambiance is awesome! I highly recommend Hanami Restaurant in Cresskill. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic! Special thanks to Apple, Danny, Jeff, and Bing ( sushi chefs ) . Never been disappointed as we come and dine three times a week.“
“Best sushi in the area. Always very fresh sushi and perfect fish to rice ratio (not too much rice like many other places around here do). I've tried other places around here but always go back to Daruma as it's by far superior in the quality of food.“
“I had my wedding rehearsal dinner here and Tommy was incredibly accommodating and ensured that everything ran smoothly from start to finish The food was absolutely delicious, and my bridal party still raves about it, especially the sushi! The staff was also very attentive and made sure that all of our needs were met. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience.“
“I have been coming here since it was blue moon and for over 10 years i have been a customer of theirs. Their food is amazing, service is top notch and now that they have re-done the interior it is stunning!! I have never heard of Japanese/Mexican but i am excited to try to Japanese side of it! Mexican is always a top 3 for me.“
“Maybe I am living in 2019 but I found the food prices to be rather high. Portions were not overly generous, either. But what we did get was excellent. Wonton soup was the best I have had anywhere. Scallion pancake tasty but not too greasy, as it can be elsewhere. Chicken and broccoli, orange beef, and lo mein had the rest of my party raving. The dining room was clean and bright (not too bright) and the service impeccable.“
“This place is terrific! The special sushi and barna roll truly excellent. BYO helps with the fairly pricy tab. Service is very attentive. Major problem is the deafening sound. I go early, before 6, which works for me. Great alternative to Seki and Gari. Highly recommend.“
“Lin's might be my new local go-to for pan-Asian cuisine in North Bronx! My takeout order was ready for pick up within minutes, the staff was friendly, and everything was packaged perfectly. The inside was clean and spacious when I stepped in with a nice, casual atmosphere when I stepped in.As for the food, everything tasted fresh, delicious, and perfectly satisfying! I had the chicken fried rice, the spicy crunch salmon roll, the pepper tuna avocado roll, and the shrimp tempura roll. All of the rolls tasted great-- the best one being the pepper tuna for me-- and the preparation and quality really allowed the flavors to shine. However, my favorite item turned out to be the chicken fried rice. The chicken tasted just a bit caramelized for a savory, umami-rich dish that was not at all greasy. I would definitely come back just for this fried rice!Overall, Lin's was definitely worth it with the reasonable prices justifying the portion sizes and quality of the food!“
“This place has amazingly fresh sushi. Not the best for cooked food like chicken teriyaki and such, but for sushi, it's a great price and some of the best sushi around, regardless of price. Not much of a sit down place, so my husband and I always take it to go, although there are tables if you want to eat there. It's very clean inside and the guys are always super nice. If you want a solid sushi dinner, I can't recommend enough!“
“Having returned the day before after two weeks in Japan, I was impressed (but not at all surprised) to find the food at Sushi of Gari to be just as good if not better than the high-end sushi restaurants I'd sampled. Gari set the standard for sushi in NYC decades ago and continues to amaze!“
“Nice service and we love the food here. We got pot stickers (fried dumplings with pork), stir fried noodles (house special), Peking duck (the pancake was the only thing we didn’t like - they used tortilla instead of the paper thin pancakes for traditional Peking duck), and moo shu pork (also comes with pancakes). Service was great and the view was fantastic! We will try going here in the summer and try their patio facing the beautiful New York skylines. Follow me for more food adventures on Instagram @maggielicious.to“
“The service tonight was outstanding!! We happened to arrive an hour earlier than our reservation (really misjudged traffic and the Lyft ride) yet the host still sat us without a problem. The Omakase selection, compared to other Sushi of Gari locations, was so creative and pleasing. Smaller, intimate setting, yet it felt extremely welcoming. I loved this location. I’ll definitely come back the next time I’m in the city.“
“If I could give them 6 stars I would, they are great!!! Went there on a date with a lovely friend expecting the usual Kosher Chinese fare that I have had from LA to Pittsburgh to my hometown here on Long Island, NY. I came expecting the food to be the normal I have expected in an inexpensive (for Kosher that is) Chinese restaurant, OK to good. However this restaurant astounded me, it was different!!!The food was fabulous!!! We both had the 'Hot and Sour' soup, and it was impressive! The temp, was just right, not luke-warm as I have come to expect in many restaurants, and, not scaldingly hot, but just right! The spices were hot as they should be, but not too hot. As I said, I was amazed!!!Then for the mains, we had, Spicy Chicken and Curry Chicken. Again the spices were quite hot, but not too, at least for me. They were just wonderful, tasty, yet with a subtle delight. It is hard to express. And we both commented how the presentation of the food on the plates was 'picture perfect.'I would suggest you go and write your own experience! I live 30 miles on the other side of the NYC metro area where traveling can be a challenge all on its own, but for this restaurant in the Bronx, NYC, NY, Kai Fan, I will be returning!!!ps I only wish they were closer to me here on Long Island!!pss I was served by one of the owners, and an owner was on duty at the cash register! A great family run operation!!Dietary restrictions: It is Kosher!!!Parking: Parked across the street at 430 for $5. After 7pm it would have been FREE!!!“
“In a dimension where bubblegum whispers secrets to parallel universes, acrobatic jellyfish juggle flaming marshmallows on unicycles made of stardust. Quantum leprechauns trade interstellar pickles for time-traveling bicycles, while disco squirrels choreograph moonlit salsa performances for enchanted garden gnomes. Beneath the polka-dotted auroras, a symphony of sentient cupcakes harmonizes with interplanetary kazoo-playing robots.Don’t take this down or I’ll cry“
“I have been coming here consistently for the last two years and the food never disappoints. The BEST Asian food in Englewood and always hits the spot. I highly recommend their lunch classics, such as the Thai Coconut curry sauce. The sushi rolls are immaculate. Lo mein is also extremely good.“
“While I had to go shopping for some items while in downtown White Plains, NY, I found myself hungry, and just happened to see the restaurant Asian Legend. Since there were so many people in line for the food, it made it seem enticing for me and curious to why so many people are lined up for food in there.“
“This is one of my favorite restaurants that serves wholesome and tasty selections from the Doubles to my favorite the Shrimp Roti. Even when fasting the Dhal Soup is a must (w/saltfish inside). They even do Chicken right and if you use hot sauce (which I love) try it sparingly because it’s Fiyah!!! All in all it’s a GREAT SPOT,..“
