    Tuna Crudo
    Ashley R.

    When I say this is my favorite restaurant right now... I truly mean it! This is the hottest spot in Bergen county to eat or grab a drink currently! From expectational service, exquisite food to their new-age modern ambience. This place is a 100/10. The crowd is of all ages, young and fun, romantic, date night, family vibe, singles ready to mingle. The 5 times I've come to this spot its always popping (basically a line out the door). As soon as you walk in you're ALWAYS greeted by my favorite hostess Tiffany. She's a sweetheart and is so attentive! I have a preference of sitting next to the bar, but not at the bar... I know, I'm annoying LOL. They have these bar top tables, that are my favorite. The assistant GM Angela always greets me as soon as I get in, and literally walks me right to them. Angela always makes sure I get my favorite table, and ensures I'm always making a follow up reservation towards the end of my visit. She's always so accommodating, she is a sweetheart!! When I say the staff is absolutely incredible, I mean it whole heartedly. All of my servers were super attentive and checked in multiple times even on the busiest Fridays! They made sure they were at my service, without even asking. The ambiance is moody, fun, young, and sexy. The lighting is mysterious and toned down, the colors are very earthy, browns and green. I am so obsessed with the lighting in this place, it really sets the vibe. Now last but not least, the FOOD.  So here the my cheat sheet (on what to get). What I order, in this order is the following:  1st- The Tuna Crudo  2nd- The Crispy Rice 3rd- Candied Bacon  4th- Caesar Salad   *This is all appetizers, then the following for our meals.* 5th- Chophouse Burger w. Disco Fries 6th- Chicken parm  7th- Onion rings Last but not least I ALWAYS get the mezcal mules, my girls get the lechee martinis. I hope you guys love this place as much as I do! It's giving NYC restaurant, but in NJ!

    This review is just for drinks. They premix almost all the drinks on their menu, leaving some flavors being overpowering. At 22 dollars I felt that a freshly mixed drink would be nice. I understand the theory is that every drink poured is the same but some alcohols taste differently after sitting together for a while.

    A few months in and kicking on all cylinders! Ambiance and service as good as week one and zero disappointments as you work your way through the menu. The fritto misto appetizer is a must and the prime dry aged NY strip is the best iteration of this cut to be had in the Tri-State area. Will be back for more!

    Had such a great experience at Capons Chophouse. The food was excellent, the service was amazing, and the ambiance was perfect. They play great music, the drinks were really good, and the whole vibe just made for such a fun night out.

    Came for lunch with family around 2 and it was still quite busy inside, especially at the bar area. Inside is very beautifully decorated, with a nice Christmas tree up front which helped distract the kiddo for a bit. Service was exceptional, able to handle my sneaky credit card give at the beginning of the meal, thank you both to our hostess and server! :) Tried the chop burger..wow, outstanding. Fries were delectable. The side salad is more of a frissé which I think I would pass on next time and could use more dressing, but honestly that's the only thing to quip about. Candied bacon and onion rings to start were very good too. Pumpkin old fashioned is a must try if youre into OF's. Also outstanding. Sure a little pricey but had a great experience.

    Capons Chophouse is fairly new and fits perfectly in my wheelhouse. Had to come. Once we entered we were welcomed by the hostess and a beautifully decorated Christmas tree. Quickly seated in a beautiful corner booth. The lights are dim, but it's not dark. It has a high end typical steakhouse feel to it, but not overdone. It was decorated just right. This was an anniversary dinner and when we sat down there was a card on the table for us from the restaurant. Unreal. What a nice gesture. Our server Makayla was welcoming and we started off with cocktails: Pumpkin spiced old fashioned- beautiful looking cocktail. Tasted amazing, it has a bite with that Elijah Craig bourbon. Slightly dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives- made just right. For appetizers: Bread service- the foccacia bread had such a beautiful crisp to it, that when you cut it with the knife, it snapped like a chip. That paired the inside of a cloud. Perfection. The ricotta and hot honey spread didn't stand a chance. Mopped up everything. The Caesar- well seasoned with a good portion of dressing. Not too much where it's soggy, but enough to coat all of the pieces just right. Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna- very light and nice. It was a refreshing take. It's like a puffed rice cake with spicy tuna on top. Lamb Chop Lollipops- amazing. Tender, juicy and packed full of flavor. I do feel there was an excessive amount of oil in the chimichurri. The lamb was sitting in a pool of oil. Just dabbed that off and it was good to go. I paired the Etna Rosso red wine with the apps. *This is how wine should be brought to the table. I ordered by the glass. You should still bring the bottle out for me to see before pouring. Not only did this happen, I got to taste it as well. Most places only do this when you get the bottle. The plate clearing was impeccable. Maybe an empty plate sat for 30 seconds before it was taken away. Entree- 20 ounce Chateaubriand med rare - beautifully cooked. The crust on this was insanely good. Sides: Charred broccolini - perfectly cooked broccoli with amazing seasoning. Loaded whipped potatoes- fluffy and airy. Beautiful Brussel sprouts with Bacon- I feel that this one was a little too sauced up. The glaze was a lot on there. It drowned out the brussel sprouts too much. Little less in my opinion and it would've been perfect. It took away from the crispness of the brussel sprouts. Bacon pieces were fire. I just picked those out and ate those. This was the only food we didn't finish here. I paired the Cabernet, Beckmen with the Entree. Crumbing was done in between courses. Amazing. Dessert: The carrot cake was recommended by the manager Ana. It was HUGE! And soo good. We both couldn't stop eating it. They comped the dessert which was extremely nice and not expected. That paired perfectly with espresso martinis. 3 beans. Amazing foam, beautiful. I got 2 of them, because I was vibing. The music is upbeat and its a playlist for everyone. Everything, from the staff/ service, the quality food, paired with above and beyond touches, makes this place amazing. Would highly recommend.

    This restaurant is in the old LT space. Similar ambiance. We did walk in without a reservation. Was told a table would not be available till closer to the end of the night which was closer to 9-9:30; yet there were several tables that were open for quite a bit while we were at the bar. Was told that reservations were full but bar is first come first serve. There were 2 seats that were available but then were told they were "reserved for VIP". Interesting that was originally told the bar was first come first serve but yet they were reserving spots; gives the impression that only select customers are "important" to them. Okay fine! The crowd was mixed for a Saturday night. From younger geographic to an older crowd. We finally got seats. Our bartender was James & he was phenomenal! If you get him.. you're in great hands. That was the best part of this experience. The food was okay. It wasn't anything "special". We ordered "Little Lettuce Lobster Lettuce Wraps" and it definitely lives up to that name; "little"! The shrimp cocktail looks fancy but just average shrimp cocktail. The Market Salad was refreshing. It had a nice miso-orange dressing that was tasty. I ordered a Moscow Mule and was disappointed they didn't have the normal copper mug for it. Not usually typical to have a Moscow mule out of a normal glass, but okay! It was interesting to even be able to hear the waitstaff bickering in front of the customers. At one point (it's believe to be one of the managers) was telling another one of their employees "idk who they think they are.. I'm their boss" - not so very professional to be having such conversations near the customers. I went to this place. Experienced it, but won't be returning.

    Service & Food is 1st Class. Tried a few of the appys as well as the focaccia bread. Pork Chop and Filet. "Glazed" Brussels Sprouts (W Bacon) and Napa Cab. The Focaccia Bread Appy was something different; well seasoned, crisp and served w (honey) and ricotta on the side. The chops like butter. Perfectly cooked. Nice. That sums it up outside of - Just Go.

    Unexpectedly went here for dinner and it was exceptional. The decor alone is gorgeous, it feels very high end and is very aesthetically pleasing. From the bartenders to the wait staff and servers, it feels like you are at a Michelin star establishment. I went in not knowing anything outside of TikTok reviewed and having visited a few chophouses, I knew what to expect but the food and drinks here are all standouts! The seafood is fresh, the steak is perfectly cooked and everything from the cocktails, to the apps, to dessert is delicious and decadent. Come hungry. You're going to want it ALL. Also - Truffle Oil Disco Fries?! Honey.

    Late post: Had visited Capon's for a late Valentine's Day dinner in February. We made the reservation in advance and upon arrival we were seated right away. The hostesses offered to take our jackets which was a nice offer. We started with drinks and an appetizer. We got an old fashioned, espresso martini, and some calamari. The drinks were excellent! The calamari was fresh and served with some fried peppers and dipping sauces of a marinara and a mayo. For the entree we ordered the tomahawk with onion rings, fries, and broccolini. The tomahawk was cooked perfectly and super tender and literally melts in your mouth. The onion rings and fries were super crisp and the broccolini was sautéed with garlic. Everything was delicious! Overall it was a great meal! Service was excellent as the servers and managers checked up on everyone. The restaurant has a nice romantic aesthetic and plenty of seating. I def recommend making a reservation in advance. I will def visit again.

    Food was very tasty. Not pictured the hashbrown's & caviar were my favorite appetizer. The dinner entrees were delicious too. My chicken parm was perfection! My husband loved his pork chop and ate the entire portion. The appetizers are smaller portions but the dinner entrees are good size. The drinks were good. The service was amazing! Definitely would good back and recommending to friends!

    Let me start by saying Chef Capon walking around to every table and mingling with everyone was awesome. He even sang happy birthday to my wife. Jonah was our server and he was awesome as well. The place is beautiful but honestly very loud. The menu is packed with stuff you'd want to try, albeit a bit pricey. One thing I must say is the food comes out very fast almost too fast. On a Monday night we had all apps and entree and dessert out within an hour. So a bit rushed. However, the place is worth a try for sure.

    2/10 - Extremely Disappointing Experience Capone's Chophouse is overpriced with terrible service. We sat at the bar for over an hour and a half with three bartenders, yet had to repeatedly ask for our second and third drinks. Staff was attentive to everyone around us, but we were clearly ignored, which made us feel unwelcome. I was never offered a menu, despite being hungry. We spent $200 on drinks that were pre-made, not fresh. When I asked for a fresh drink, I was told, "This is how we do things here." Completely unacceptable especially for a restaurant at this price point. The drinks weren't even good and left me with a headache the next morning. The lack of hospitality was obvious from the moment we walked in. One person greeted us, while others looked at us with visible dissatisfaction. The only time service improved was after staff overheard me mention completing a survey then suddenly they were eager to help. I've dined at far better establishments. This experience missed the mark from start to finish. We left and went elsewhere to actually enjoy our night. Not worth the money!

    Cold steak, no char $185...

For me, it goes all the way back to Houston, Texas--specifically the Kirby location. That's where I fell in love with the salad: the Thai Steak & Noodle Salad / Asian Chicken-style salad (depending on location/menu variations). It's piled high, loaded with flavor, and that peanut dressing? Absolute perfection. It's one of those dishes you think about long after you've left. And it's not just the salad: * The spinach artichoke dip with tortilla chips is always a must * The Hawaiian ribeye is a knockout * Cocktails are consistently on point * And the bar is one of my favorite places to sit when dining solo Houston's spaces tend to be a little darker, more intimate--perfect for date nights or catching up with friends without feeling rushed. I've been to multiple locations--Atlanta (Buckhead), Memphis (RIP to that one), even New Jersey--and the throughline is always the same: reliable, high-quality food and excellent service. Quick note: they can be a bit particular with reservations, especially for larger groups. I've run into limits before (around 5-6 people max), which can be frustrating, so plan ahead if you're rolling deep. Also, fun fact: Houston's is part of the same family as Hillstone Restaurant (you might recognize the San Francisco Embarcadero location formerly known as Houston's, now Hillstone). Same DNA, same menu philosophy--so you can still get your favorites there. Bottom line: Timeless, consistent, and always satisfying. Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, Houston's just delivers. If you see one--make the reservation, sit at the bar, order that salad, and thank me later. Life's too short not to eat well.

I've heard comparisons between Marty's patties and those of Five Guys, and I can see why. They're fresh rather than frozen, and they're thin enough to approximate a smashed burger with those occasional bits of char while still maintaining enough heft that you can taste the beef. Their build-your-own burger menus are also similar, with plenty of free toppings to choose from. But I would argue that Marty's offers a fuller range of toppings from diverse cheese options to more premium ones like fried eggs, bacon, and avocado. I tried two of their signature burgers, and while the Swiss mushroom dijon was a hit with my husband (he pointed out the visible mustard seeds in the dijon sauce), the bacon avocado was the clear winner in my book. It not only had bacon that was texturally perfect (crispy and densely packed atop the patty), but also picture-ready slices of avocado. For that to come out of a fast food restaurant kitchen within a matter of minutes? Color me impressed. The banana pudding is dynamite. I'm usually neither a fan of banana nor puddings because those things combined just sound like mush. But here, the pudding is more of a whipped, airy texture, and I believe it when the lid says 'made fresh' because there were chunks of banana nestled in every bite. I admit it might not be much to look at, but I was hooked after a single spoonful (I'm actually greedily scraping the bottom of the container as I type this review). The restaurant has a diminutive dining space (I counted four two-tops at most), but it feels super cozy and casual. I took my food to go and found nothing had deteriorated - in flavor, temperature, or texture - during my drive home because everything is well packaged.
