"The food was good, but the pickup experience was terrible. I waited longer than the quoted time, and my order was mistakenly given to someone else, forcing me to wait even longer. I expected an apology for the long wait and the mix-up."
Pasta • Coffee • Chicken • Desserts
"The food is fantastic and healthy. It's as if hipster Brooklyn was brought to Fort Lee. My personal favorites are the pollo pesto sandwich, bliss bowl, pollo asado bowl, and the caprese sandwich. The desserts are healthy and delicious as well. The menu is huge and incorporates all kinds of foods: smoothies, meal replacement, bowls, salads, sandiwiches, wraps, paninis. The interior design is a bit iffy, but it's constantly improved. Has a small selection of groceries as well."

"These are the best dumplings in New Jersey!You can tell right away when you eat them that they are made with the best, fresh ingredients. I love the kimchi pork dumplings, the beef and chives dumplings, and the Japchae dumplings. In addition to that, the king buns make a great, delicious snack, and the Don Katsu is really crunchy and fresh, so my kids love it. I highly recommend this place."

"I was craving kimbap and wasn't sure if I liked this place because there are few reviews (with good rating though) compared with other restaurants nearby, but I was completely wrong! I love this place a lot and will definitely come back. Good quality with reasonable prices. I recently had an experience club sandwich at a high rated restaurant, which costed $30ish and it was just bread and ham. I feel like such a famous restaurant can catch people's attention for the first few times but we can tell which is more tasty and is worth. One note: Wasabi tuna was not raw real tuna but a caned tuna. I liked it but I will try something different next time. Thank you for the yummy food!"
Soup • Fish • Sushi • Salads
"The sushi is outstanding, showcasing impeccably fresh fish. The bluefin tuna was the best I've ever tasted, and there was a remarkable type of Japanese white fish that was a delightful surprise. The uni was spectacular, and the toro was exceptional. The sashimi appetizer was the best I’ve experienced. However, there were a few downsides. Some of the sushi, like fluke, mackerel, and sea bass, while all exceptionally prepared, weren’t particularly memorable. For $150, I expected more top-tier selections. The appetizers were good, but they didn’t stand out. Overall, it’s a wonderful experience, but just be aware that not everything might be as extraordinary as the top offerings."

"The dining space is limited, with just one large round table available, so most customers seem to opt for takeout. The menu offers a variety of curry rice options, including choices of meatloaf, chicken, and vegetables, as well as some dishes I'm not familiar with. Although the prices are on the higher side—something that seems common these days, especially in Fort Lee, NJ—I'd say the food is worth it. If you're in Fort Lee and craving Japanese Curry or looking for something unique, this little gem is definitely worth a visit!"

"I've eaten here and got take out from here a bunch and the food is always delicious and abundant (2-3 meals worth). Service for dine in is always terrific and I suggest you hear the specials before ordering. The only area where they do not shine as brightly is the bar unfortunately. I don't recommend mixed drinks here but otherwise this is a fantastic spot, with convenient parking and excellent service. Take away is packaged exceptionally and I've never had a cold or spilled container and we order frequently. Parking: Inside a strip mall with a large free parking lot"

"I was there at 8:47 pm July 10. Finished ordering in 2 mins 8:49 pm. I ordered bacon quarter pounder and small iced mocha. This is the slowest mcdonalds. Staff is clueless about everything. They pretend they don't hear you whenever you ask for help. I understand you guys are busy with too many orders. But I think you should not ignore people trying to follow up their orders especially if it's been more than 20 minutes for only 2 easy items. They finished my order for 26 mins to be exact. Also they tried giving me the wrong order just because they're too lazy to put whip cream on the iced mocha. They have been giving me iced mocha with whip cream without me telling them so that's why I thought it always come with it. They all told me it doest come with it. Instead of just making it right to customer rather than making it seem it's my fault. They replaced it but with a mocha frappe I told them already I didn't order frappe. These kids need to be trained. The only crew who provided good customer service is the tall guy at the front. He can actually keep up with the phase. The lady manager in blue who dictates orders has a sense of urgency tho. The problem is the young kids who dont wanna take their jobs seriously. By the way u skipped on mayo way too much. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $1–10"

"I hate that I can’t rate this place five stars because HappyCow only allows 5 Stars for Fully Vegan or Vegetarian Restaurants but I loved this place so much. Not only the food but the customer service also. I had one of the specials: Fried Avocado Burrito and my husband had the bowl. It was delicious, filling and affordable without compromising the quality of the food. When I asked the owner about the Vegan options he at the end asked me if I felt the vegan products he was buying was good enough for vegans to be sure he was buying the right kind so my husband and I appreciated his sincere concern. In the near future they will have a part of the menu for Vegans to easily find their options quicker. Definitely will return !"

"Usually we absolutely love baggio but our last two visits were not as great and I'm leaving this to be honest because I want this place to do well. The staff has always been on point but this summer seems there's many new servers who don't know the menu . We know the food well as we do family celebrations here for years . On this visit both my dinner and my friends looked and tasted nothing like the very same dishes we've had many many times . Example the special penne vodka comes drizzled with pesto and had fresh burrata on top . Mine came out no pesto no cheese . My friend ordered the salmon pasta it's always creamy with the salmon beautifully sauced and flavored . His came out plain pasta and salmon no sauce . Almost as if the normal chef wasn't there . Pasta was either so mushy or not cooked . Very weird for this place . Usually perfect ."

"treat my man to ventanas at his birthday and the experience was all I could have asked. it was our first time to eat there and we were impressed. eating was amazing. our waiter harold was amazing. harold was so courteous and attentive to our needs and helped me to ensure that my man's birthday was special. as expected, it was quiet for a Monday night that was perfect as it allowed us to have a nice quiet and intimate dinner, and take it in how beautiful the restaurant decorated and decorated. we are going back to the final."

"The food was excellent, especially the sushi rolls, which were enormous. Be mindful of how much you order, as each piece is sizable. The standout roll for me was the "Love on Top," although I did find that the crabmeat in the Alaska roll had an off taste halfway through. All the appetizers were delightful, and it's important to familiarize yourself with the menu. If you're planning to enjoy appetizers and cooked dishes, order those first unless you're just going for sushi. I ended up eating more than I planned because I felt embarrassed about ordering too much. The service and atmosphere were great. While each all-you-can-eat place has its specialties, I prefer the cooked food at Little Ferry, though the sushi here is far superior. Next time, I’ll definitely prioritize the cooked options first, now that I realize how massive the sushi rolls are!"

"It's too bad. I came on Saturday at about 12 noon and there were 3 seats at the sushi bar and two tables open and the greeter told me there were no seats for me. The single diner at the end of the sushi bar had already ordered and was eating and he told me 2 other people were joining her. And he said that the tables were reserved. I went back to my car and took a phone call and over the next 30 minutes one couple left and one couple entered.It's too bad. There food is very good, but I will never be back. I guess the greeter does not understand the life value of a customer. Who knows, maybe it was the owner."

"I have NEVER seen wings delivered sauceless. Why would you deliver it sauceless? The sauce sticks BEST when they’re fresh out the deep fryer.. not when they’re room temp with a “cold” sauce. What are you thinking here?? To make matters worse. I was given 2oz sauce for wings. Not even enough to coat the wings as cold as it was but there was also a 4oz marinara only I didn’t realize it because they weren’t labeled properly so naturally I thought the larger soufle cup was meant for wings Marinara wings. Just what I ordered.. not! Lastly why is the chicken soup a light red hue? Did you start by giving me the wrong soup and blend and mix regardless once you caught your mistake? 1- deliver your wings SAUCED 2- label these ancillary items Shame brought upon ricks legacy here smh"

"Really a 4.5 but because of the extensive menu choices I gave it 5 stars. In addition to wings and drumsticks which are a strong contender to BonChon Chicken, they have things like Shin Ramen, cole slaw as an alternative to the sweet radishes and reasonable prices. I liked that the cheese dog had a few bites of sausage, but the batter could be a little less heavy. Other than that it definitely hits the spot and their spicey mix was delicious."

"Picnic serves the freshest sushi around! The owners are absolutely fantastic—super accommodating and friendly. We catered from Picnic for my son's first birthday because he loved their food so much. They even made the sushi rolls just the right size for his little mouth, and everyone was impressed by the spread we had. Now, at 7.5 years old, Picnic continues to be his favorite restaurant. The salmon is so delicious that my 3-year-old daughter can't resist stealing pieces right off my plate! I also recently discovered their takoyaki, which I enjoyed all to myself!"

"I had forgotten how delicious this place is! You can choose from a variety of greens, such as spinach and Napa cabbage, as well as different types of mushrooms and proteins like beef, chicken, and fish. You can also specify how spicy you want your dish - medium is pretty spicy, while a small amount of spice is suitable for most people. Your dish will be ready in just five minutes, and it is not only delicious but also incredibly healthy! However, I recently visited and found that the prices had gone up significantly. Two of us ended up paying around $30 each, including tips, so it came to about $80 in total. Make sure to be careful with your selections and ask about the weight to understand the cost. We were surprised by how expensive it had become."

"The food is just terrible, WORST udon soup I ever had! Mitsua is a million times better. Too bad, I really wanted to like this place, and the servers were very polite and Japanese , also the place is nice. But the udon soup tasted like old fish and dirty water, and the noodles tasted like rubber. I couldn 't eat it at all and I left hungry. Same with my husband. The pork bowl was bland as well, but at least it was edible with some soy sauce. Again, mitsua 's is better. I should have complained, but I was in a group and did not want to ruin the afternoon. Do not recommend this place."
