Strawberry shake
Diana M.

Came here around 11am for lunch. I loved the music playing and the vibe that this place has. I ordered a Cuban sandwich and a strawberry smoothie. I would say the sandwich was decent, not bad but i was expecting more. I did enjoy the smoothie. I also did not like that it took 25 minutes for them to make my order. Not sure why it took so long. The place did have a lot of traffic coming in and out so maybe they have their specialty items they are known for

Empanada
Daphne R.

I've ordered the empanadas multiple times and beef is my favorite. I love that it's full of flavor. The avena is also very delicious. they also have an espresso machine so the coffee is amazing. I would definitely recommend and will continue to visit the spot. The staff are always so nice which is a plus.

Hands down some of the best cubano sandwiches in the area! But don't forget the other options on the menu, I always take a few empanadas and papa rellenos when I go to pick up my order.

Cuban Sandwich.  Perfectly toasted and moist and tender inside.  With the perfect pickle crunch!

After passing by this place numerous times after work, I finally got a chance to try what they are calling "Cuban Sandwich King". They must close fairly early since they are closed when I pass by at 6pm. So this was a Saturday that I was able to make this visit. When I walked in, I was taken aback. Very basic and not much personality. Now I'm getting nervous. The gentleman that helped me was extremely nice. I looked at a menu and it was fairly simple. Hey. Then again... What are going to get at the Cuban Sandwich King??? Hence, that is what I got. When I got home, I immediately tore into this. It was phenomenal. King?? I'm not 100% sure on that but very close in the chain of command. I was fearing it would be dried out. Complete opposite. Perfectly toasted and just so satisfying. Definitely swing by if you're in the area for lunch and grab one of these babies. They do a great job!!!

Egg and bacon sandwich

Nice sandwich shop located in Lyndhurst. Two tables for seating and two counter stools. Mostly takeout. Good for breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Good cappuccino. Friendly service. Warm atmosphere.

Ordered for pickup and added 2 empanadas to my order when I was there. The chicken empanada was better than the beef, but both were good/okay. The Cuban sandwich was sooooo delicious! Must try!!! Made to perfection, bread was nicely pressed and the cheese was stretchy

I randomly drove by Andris one day and noticed this small place on the corner . Usually I travel to North Bergen and Union city to get my Cuban food. After seeing good reviews I knew I had to make a stop. If this place was good and I didn't have to drive to NB for a Cubano. I'm sold . Signs of a great Cuban sandwich shop. 1) when you walk in they are playing Cuban/Latin classics . 2) husband and wife ( I believe) combo. He was slapping together the sandwich's and she was pounding out the empanadas like a well oiled machine . 3) fridge was filled with Cuban soft drinks ( as well as others ) I started with the classics before trying anything else . I got the Cubano sandwich and a beef empanada. My opinion ..... well they didn't last more then 5 mins . They had no chance when they were tasting that good!!! Good food . Very nice owners . Can't wait to go back and try the other stuff . My wife has already given me her order hahaha

Their empanadas and Cuban sandwiches are awesome. Also they have all the Spanish Sodas that you can't find anywhere

Stuffed yuca (beef)
Harry P.

When I first stepped into this place, I had a good feeling about this cuban. Came here with some co-workers, before one of them could ask what the cuban special was the guy behind the counter read his mind and told us it had chorizo in it. So of course we all got the Cuban Special. While I was waiting i got the beef stuffed yuca, there was nothing yuca about it. Nicely fried on the outside but still soft on the inside and the beef wasn't dry at all. Now on to the sandwich: Bread - crispy as it should be, you hear that nice crunch when you bite in. Pork - the ham was good, and the shredded pork was not dry Pickles - Needed more Chorizo - Nice addition to the sandwich Cheese - I wanted a little bit more Garlic Sauce - very tasty, recommend getting a side of it to add some more flavor Overall a very good sandwich, I do wish it was a little bigger though. It is definitely on my list for as one of the better cuban sandwiches I have had in the area.

Chicken breast Sandwich!
Norberto F.

Great place and service. One of the best sandwiches I have eaten thus far. The owner is super friendly and respectful. Great spot at a great price. Highly recommend it. Have to try the empanadas also.

In 1983, I arrived in New Jersey to begin my professional football journey with the New York…read moreGiants. As a young kid from Louisiana, one of the first things I missed was the culture, flavor, and sweet treats that reminded me of home in New Orleans. Back then, my teammates used to tease me relentlessly about being the "fat rookie from Louisiana" because I was always chasing pralines, cookies, pastries, and every sugary delight imaginable. Not long after arriving, I stumbled upon a hidden gem that instantly made me feel at home -- Lyndhurst Pastry Shop. This led me to "SACKING" tons of NFC QB's over the years. From day one, Paulette, Jerry, her father, and the entire staff have treated me like family. Decades later, they are still absolutely knocking it out of the park. Whether it's their incredible Italian ice, authentic cannoli, specialty cookies, or my personal weakness -- their unbelievable apple rings -- this place never disappoints. Truth be told, I can't stop there without bringing one home for my wife. Some places serve food. Others serve memories, tradition, and comfort. Lyndhurst Pastry Shop has done that for me for over 40 years. A true North Jersey institution. Five stars isn't enough -- if I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. Leonard A.

The Lyndhurst Pastry Shop located on Ridge Road is an iconic must visit during the holiday season…read more There quality pastry, cookie, pie, bread, and cakes are without peer and their staff is always professional and top rate. I ordered the Christmas Honey balls ($19.95) and the Fudge Layer Cake ($29.50) and while I disagree with the credit card fee being passed to the consumer, the quality of the product exceeds that cost. Inside the venue is a true classic bakery atmosphere and while there is usually a line, the service is brisk and moves fairly quickly. If you want to impress your holiday season guests, family or friends, the LPS is the right venue for traditional Italian baked goods and desserts! As i return to NJ for the holidays, I will make at least three or four stops at LPS. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Steven’s Cafe - Rainbow Bagel Toasted with Cream Cheese & Matcha Latte

If you need a noise controlled little spot for a work from home setting. Steven's Cafe is IT!…read more Ambiance: Upon walking in, you see a beautifully modernized decorated cafe with classical music at a moderate level. Spacious with beautiful tables and the smell of fresh coffee and bagels. Definitely an instagram worthy spot with booths all equipped with outlets and the window seats also have ports for chargers as well. Even when theres a bit of a crowd the noise is still at a good level to hold phone call meetings privately! Food: A solid range of menu items whether you're someone who wants a savory breakfast, they offer fresh omelettes, breakfast sandwiches and bagels with various cream cheese! For the sweet breakfast, they offer so many different pastries fresh from the oven! I opted for a toasted bagels with cream cheese because I'm a sucker for a good jersey bagel ! Drinks are the same with variety, from Americanos to smoothies to matcha lattes. Something for everyone is an understatement! I got the matcha latte. Service: I showed up when it wasn't busy so everything was made for me very fast and served very fast! The staff members greeted you with a smile and everyone was very nice when serving and collecting my plate when I was finished. I love finding cafes to work from with the music at a regular volume because it's hard to make some calls with music blasting. They also play classical music which is actually quite helpful for focus with some! (Yes I am that "some") . All in all I will make this a regular spot! Plenty of street parking too! Cafe prices here are standard. I spent ten dollars for my medium latte and bagel

Stopped in to do work and liked the vibe!…read more Upon entering I was greeted and asked what I would like by the cashier. I ordered a plane croissant and a smoothie. The croissant was fresh and flaky and the smoothie was good, but a little bland (I am very critical of smoothies). The chocolate croissant was tasty and had Nutella. Yum! Music is playing but it was not distracting. There was ample seating and the decor is very cute. Big windows allowed for a lot of natural light to fill the space which I love. They have a wide variety of items on their menu which is great. I have found a new cafe to spend time in when I need to get things done and want to get out of the house.
