Cappuccino (after a few sips - it looked great when we got it)
Fran C.

The place is very cute, with plenty of seating. We went on a Saturday and there were a good amount if people there. The food selection is somewhat limited. Staff needs some training to move faster and efficiently, especially given the area competition and volume of customers. This place has great potential. Coffee quality is commercial. It has great potential with a few tweaks.

Service was great - friendly and welcoming. Prices for the quality of food is thumbs all the way down. Grilled Chicken sandwich was embarrassing. Barely grilled and I felt like the chicken was still alive. The key like cake was $7 plus tax and it was smaller than my Areolas. Coffee as okay. Never again.

Pastries are the reason to come here - we got various croissants and they were so delicious. Food was quite lackluster and lacking flavor, my shakshuka wasn't quite shakshuka but rather poached eggs in tomato sauce with sliced bread. Pita and za'atar seasoning would have made a big difference. Definitely missed the mark, but the coffee and pastries made up for it.

Went to Branche Cafe for coffee on a Friday. It's a cute cafe with some seating indoor and outdoor. They are apparently a French bakery, and I have had many of their different flavors of croissants. They are all good. Their coffee is just as good as their pastries. I've had the cortado and the cold brew. I like that they use frozen coffee as ice for their cold brew. Definitely worth going for the good coffee.

Coffee and cinnamon roll.

Super awesome food and service. Nice little cafe, coffee and pastries were delicious

Good coffee, pleasant staff, and outdoor seating in front. This cafe is walking distance from me and convenient for me to swing by when I want good coffee. My friend and I tried their drip iced coffee and it was great! I've tried some of their pastries too. They have some cakes and other sweet treats available for purchase. They have a food menu for breakfast/brunch/lunch but haven't tried their dishes yet.

Nice are parking on street and a lot. Food was really good! Service was good! The iced Americano was good and the dessert selection was amazing! I tried two so far and both were tasty. Almond French toast with fresh fruit is delicious and the whipped cream is on point. The vanilla anglaise is so damn good! Clean spacious bathroom too! I cant wait to go back to try some new food options and desserts.

Worth a try!

Tried the other two pastries mentioned in my previous review. The triangular one ended up being an apple turnover. It was enjoyable, with an interesting twist of using what seemed to be apple puree for the filling! The puree wasn't sickeningly sweet or slimy, so I think it was house made. I believe the round pastry was a cinnamon swirl. It was very light (too light for me), and was unfortunately crumbly dry. As Meatloaf said in one of his songs, "Two outta three ain't bad."! I'll be visiting again

Friendly service and cute interior! The food was good, but nothing special. Solid brunch spot! Parking is meter parking so be prepared to pay.

Love love love this quaint cafe with breakfast and brunch options. Cute outdoor seating too. Wish it were open longer. Drip coffee 5/5 Pain au Chocolat 5/5 crispy buttery and chocolaty Street parking in front.

I love Branche. Their specialty drinks are really good and their staff is just the best. This is one of my comfort cafes in Fort Lee, 10/10!

Terribly dry and burned loaf of $10 bread.
Madeleine P.

Very stale dry old bread. For $10 you'd figure fresh loaf. Never going again. Save your money. There are so many other cafes around.

What a treat it is to finally get a decent brunch restaurant in part of town in Fort Lee! Woot woot!! After visiting about three times, decided that this establishment deserves a review. This review is based on their SOFT OPENING. Tried several items on the menu starting from dripped coffee, freshly squeezed OJ, green tea latte, omlettes, benedicts, smoked salmon on baguette bread, arugula salad, squash soup, almond pastries, and few more things. Firstly, love the fact that all the ingredients are fresh. You can taste the freshness! Secondly, staff are super friendly and attentive. And of course, the location is great with a parking space and even more street parking. Even the little tables on the sidewalk is a perfect to sit, and relax with some coffee with the tranquil view of greenfield of community center. Truly looking forward to how the establishment will settle after the upcoming grand opening. Truly excited and looking forward to it!

After years of kicking myself in the ass for not getting here before 3 pm, i finally rolled up for…read moresome lunch. 4 stars alone just for the service. As soon as i walked in i was greeted by someone at the counter, seems like the owner or manager, he was incredibly welcoming and friendly. My server was sweet too and paid attention. although i was pleased with my meal, i think i made the wrong choice by getting what i did. i now realize i need to come back and get actual breakfast items because that seems to be the star of the show. however, the lunch specials are a great deal and i was on a bit of a budget. grilled cheese is incredibly simple and nothing to talk about. maybe they can add the option of 2 cheeses maybe add caramelized onions? it was just white bread with 1 slice of cheddar. it hit the spot and was melted fine, but really nothing exciting. the lunch special came with a soup and there were 3 choices this day. the onion soup was absolutely amazing. it was sweet and salty, and veggie friendly! i would get this again. fries were nothing special either. probably could have been cooked more. rice pudding was okay. i think it needed more sweetness or seasoning but it was a nice touch at the end of the meal. ps, all for $14? what a good deal.

While meandering around our local neighborhood, my husband and I stumbled upon this tiny diner and…read moregave it a try. We're so glad we did, because this hole in the wall turned out to be a diamond in the rough. With a nondescript exterior and limited signage, Foodies Diner is easy to miss. It's in an area with mainly houses and mixed use commercial buildings, but the space inside is cozy. I especially appreciated the way the owner greeted everyone who enters and thanked everyone who leaves with notable warmth and small-town friendliness. The menu reads like a true diner - with all-day breakfast and brunch options, as well as standard lunch fare. We ordered a Santa Fe salad and an L.A. burger - which comes with avocado, bacon, onion, lettuce, and tomatoes. The burger was pretty standard, but having it delivered on a warm brioche bun feels a little bit special. The accompanying fries were also great - crisp and potatoey on the inside. The salad, on the other hand, was a near triumph. Served on a large platter, there was a small field of well-seasoned chicken, shredded cheddar, vegetables, avocado, pico de gallo, and - best yet - some pieces of warm, toasted pita. I even sprinkled some pieces of bacon from my burger into this salad, and wow did that take it over the top. I dug into this salad with fair gusto and would absolutely come back for it...which is saying something, since I wouldn't expect to fall in love with a salad at a diner. Service was fantastic, and we were pleased with how reasonably priced our meal turned out to be. There's plenty of parking - either right out front or in the lot further back.

There was a schmear of some sauce. The description and images of what you are supposed to be getting are a complete fabrication. I've eaten at Kudo Society before and did not love it but wouldn't leave a bad review as that was just my opinion but this ghost kitchen situ was offensive and I hope anyone looking to order from there finds this review to second guess whether or not they should. Anything without real life pics shouldn't be trusted. On Egg Drop, customer service contact redirects you to Kudo Society.

We were both looking forward to dining al fresco, but it turned out to be a raining morning, so we wound up inside instead. The venue change was not all bad, as the bright dining room was surrounded by windows offering just a slightly more obscured view of Manhattan and the Hudson River. The restaurant offered either a à la carte menu or a $41 prix-fixe option, which included a choice of one brunch item and two mimosas, bellinis or bloody marys. While my friend opted to include the beverage package, I stuck with coffee and a main dish. My coffee was bold, tasty, and refilled as needed. For my entree, I selected the Bakkafrost Salmon, which arrived as a long, thin filet of pan-seared salmon served over a Japanese sweet potato hash and plated with a tomato confit and a parsnip puree. It was further garnished with a black sesame tuile and a soy garlic glaze. The salmon was a bit fishy, but the rest of the accoutrements were fantastic! I love Japanese sweet potatoes and parsnips, so it was right up my alley. Of course the weather started to clear towards the end of our experience, but we still really enjoyed our tasty meal, excellent service, and stunning views from the elegant dining room.

Whether one's in the mood for a cozy family dinner or a casual get-together with friends. Sitting on the banks of the Hudson River in Edgewater, my partner, our friends, and I decided on a celebratory dinner at the Haven Waterfront Restaurant & Bar. A reservation was easily made via OpenTable. Upon arrival as first-timers, we were greeted by the host and got a table immediately by the window inside their floor-to-ceiling dining room, evoking a relaxed yet upscale vibe. Their menu specializes in American/Mediterranean cuisine influenced by seafood, steakhouse, and pasta. For appetizers, we decided on Short Rib Crostini, Kumamoto Oysters, and Yellowin Ahi Tuna Tacos. Our main consisted of Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass, 7 oz Prime Cut Filet Mignon, Bangkok Roasted Duck Breast, Lenny's Lobster Pasta, Crispy Lyonnaise Potatoes, and French Butter Asparagus. We even saved room for dessert and got the Bailey's Crème Brûlée and Assorted Dessert Tasting for two. We washed them down with I Dream of Lychees Martini, Berry White Spritz, and Haven Espresso. Complimentary bread with softened butter started our meal. The food is presented like art, and the portions varied depending on what one ordered. It's a little pricey but definitely worth it and fair considering the quality. Our server, Juan, was friendly, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of our questions, which made the experience even more enjoyable. A wonderful night all around--we're already looking forward to coming back.
