Wow!!! This is a hidden gem. Place is casual and small so don't expect anything fancy but the food quality is 10/10. Sometimes poke can taste fishy or just not fresh, but all the ingredients in my bowl were incredibly fresh. I believe it was the owner working when I grabbed take out and she was so kind and helpful. I will definitely be supporting this local business with more take out orders- super impressed with the food! read more

Food For Life - Tuna poke - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Edgewater, New Jersey

I was craving poke yesterday and found that this "Food for Life" does poke! After a rather disappointing recent experience at a poke shop in Fort Lee, I decided to give them a try and I was happy that I did! First, the name - I was wondering if this was a chain since I know one in Fort Lee, and a new one sprang up on 9W/Sylvan Ave. in Englewood Cliffs... and the lady told me they're all independently owned under same "theme/name." Ok, now that we got that out of the way... (asked nobody ever but still) THEY ARE BACK after closing for a month due to Coronavirus, now for a week. The owner lady told me people still think they're closed, so I wanna get the word out there to come SUPPORT your local business! PLACE - Bright and meticulously clean with well laid out menu items. Poke isn't on their circulated menu so took a picture with updated pricing. FOOD - I ordered Tuna poke and Spicy Salmon poke ($14 ea.) and I was not disappointed. There was a sushi chef on premise working with chunks of sashimi fish preparing orders. When I got home to eat, I noticed the fish was really fresh, with sensible usual poke toppings, and I love the fact that they actually use fresh chunks of salmon for their "Spicy Salmon" unlike many joints that cut corner by using the mashed up stuff with less fresh fish and fillers. They also veered towards light in terms of sriracha mayo and shoyu which preserved the taste just right, and I poured a bit of ponzu to suit my own taste. Portion was generous and came with a bowl of hot miso soup which was just perfect. Only minor feedback would be that rice was a bit blocky-cooler than I'd have liked so took wee bit more effort to eat together with the toppings... but not a big deal. With recent rise in delivery apps you might be tempted to (not even sure if they participate), but you know how they kill the restaurant's margin... So get off your butt and just go pick it up yourself... you need fresh air / groceries anyway right? :) Thank you for a delicious dinner and we'll be back. read more

Great little spot. Looks like husband and wife ran place, but their sushi never disappoints. I wish when paying with card it allowed a tip option so I normally bring cash for to go orders. The poke is amazing, and they always seem so friendly. My gf and I order from here often when craving sushi or poke read more

Fresh and yummy food! I always order a shrimp tempura roll or Caesar salad. Both are always very good!

This place is super fresh & yummy for a healthy lunch. They have tons of amazing options (sushi, salads, wraps, poke bowls, paninis) so its really up to what you're in the mood for but I got the spicy shrimp poke bowl and it was amazing! I got it with multigrain rice which was surprisingly purple, but overall super good. Deff recommend a stop here if you're in the area! read more

Went for Daily Lunch Special Food - 4/5. Sushi rolls were compact and had beautiful color. The fish were fresh and I liked the slight gochujang flavor in the spicy mayo. However I thought the thin slices of cucumber was offsetting. The crunchy texture of the cucumbers were really prevalent and slightly overpowered the delicate fish flavors. It also felt like filler in the spicy tuna and a weaker alternative to avocado in the spicy salmon. Miso soup was soothing and mellow. Service - 4/5. Quick and friendly. Value - 3/5. The lunch special takes away 50 cents and adds a miso soup so its not the greatest of deals. At the price range of $12.50, I feel competing restaurants in the area would give at least three rolls. I also feel a little cheated when the rolls have so much filler vegetables. Parking - Mall Lot (Free) read more

My boyfriend went to go get us food and he order a few rolls, poke bowl and a miso soup. The lady comped another soup on the house just for ordering Well, ma'am, you just gained a regular returning customer This sushi was honestly unexpectedly some of the best sushi I've ever had the rolls were delicious, the soup was great but the POKE BOWL!! Sheesh the poke bowl stole the entire show It's $14 and honestly so underpriced with how much food and avocado they give you. I moved from LA a year and a half ago and had been looking to No avail for a great poke bowl until now I can not wait to go Again and have plans to go again this week already. Super affordable, beyond delicious and above all great homey customer service from a small business. Check them out and when you do make sure to add the Poke Bowl read more

Awesome poke bowls and great customer service! Very nice people work here and food is yummy!

The sushi was good, but my portobello wrap was terrible. The mushrooms tasted old and I had to just throw it away. Location is nice across from a pond area with outdoor seating. read more

Deliciousness! The rumors are true! Fresh sushi, amazing service, great juices, and delicious sandwiches. Big fan! It's a cute little shop with extremely friendly staff! They didn't care that we came at 4:55pm when they close at 5pm (yea, I'm one of those people). Service was amazing and the food, even better! Thanks! read more

This place has some serious sushi. When I got married we ordered a huuuuuuge tray of sushi for my bridesmaids, wedding coordinators, and mom to nosh on while we got ready. Best decision ever. The sushi was UNBELIEVABLY FRESH with lots of variety. It was a great lunch because we could pick at it and get ready at the same time. Their standard rolls are all delicious, but their specialty rolls are OUTSTANDING! I especially love the Kamikaze roll (spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, and a sweet/spicy sauce). For those who can't handle the spice, their rainbow roll (salmon, tuna, shrimp, white tuna) is the best. My husband also likes to rave to me about how much he loves their smoothies. Icy, refreshing, and crazy healthy. Fresh ingredients, delicious food, and doesn't put a strain on the wallet! :) hard to beat. (And the owners are even super cute!) I wish I lived closer. read more

I LOVE this place! Susan is so nice and always takes care of me when I order my spicy tuna poke bowl, no crab. (I'm just not a crab fan. What can I say?). The poke bowl is one of my favorite meals in the world--it's just delicious! Their sandwiches, soups and edamame are great too. A wonderful small business we should all support! read more

I have been here a few times. It's a great little shop with quick healthy options. (Which can be hard to find.) I usually get the sushi, which is always pretty good, and they also have lunch specials. Recently I've ordered the avocado BLT, and was surprised at how delicious it was. (I've never had one before.) I will definitely stopping by this spot in the future for a quick healthy bite to eat. read more

What a surprise this little gem is! The poke bowl as super fresh and tasty! Will go back again for sure! Their hours seem a little odd but think its a family run business so I get it. read more

Pretty cool spot with a variety of food options (like a small scale NYC eatery). From sandwiches to sushi and even healthy shakes this place is trying to cover all the basics. They even got snacks and drinks too. All I wanted was a shake, but with a 10$ minimum I was forced into getting another item, I decided on a sandwich just to know if they where any good. Cold shakes and hot chicken sandwiches don't really mix all that well. But separated they would've tasted pretty damn good. The chicken sandwich was a pressed panini style. It had a good amount of chicken in it, lettuce was surprisingly enjoyable? (Honestly never thought I'd enjoy lettuce in a sandwich like this). The mustard they use was obviously cheap, but it was also kind of nostalgic and I really enjoyed it (a lot of people will not). The shake was also great, couldn't really taste it with the relish and mustard aftertaste of the sandwich, but even with that it was still good. Banana and vanilla protein power with whole milk, bland but can't go wrong with it. One shake and sandwich came out to 12$. For the quality and size, and speed of delivery, very reasonable price. Would come back when I need a really quick bite and don't care what I'm eating. Wouldn't make a trip for this place though. 4/5 because it's not a place I'll tell people to go try. read more

Food to options is 3-4 stars. Staff to genuinely customer freindly service is pushing a 2...on a good day. If you can make it past both the consistently rude guy who picks up the phone like he doesn't want to help you and the counter lady, who will give you an attitude (must be a store setting ritual) until she realises you're spending money through the week, the food will be sure to delight you. Dear staff, Two moths ago I gave you the benefit of the doubt but today the guy who answers the phone was/still is at his best, "hurry up and order/I don't want to take your order or be at work today" usual vibe." read more

This place is gem! Food is excellent! They also have fresh juice. Everything tastes amazing!

Amazing food and above all the beautiful presentation, its fresh and healthy. Love the smoothies, sushi and just tried their new poke bowl creation and it's so good! Above all, wonderful service. read more

I was walking to my car this afternoon after getting a pedicure and trying to decide what to eat for lunch and stumbled upon this place. It is on the same block as my nail salon so I was surprised that I had never noticed it before. I was searching for something that wouldn't break my diet so I decided to go with the Mother Nature whole wheat wrap which includes portobello mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, mozzarella, olive oil and spinach. I just scarfed half of it down a few minutes ago and am actually fighting with myself to not eat any more until dinner. Yes, it was that good. So juicy and tasty! Although I thought it was a bit pricy ($8), you can definitely tell that they are using quality ingredients. I am happy to see that they have locations in Englewood and Fort Lee as Edgewater is definitely out of the way for me. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Always a pleasure to have food from here, it is always delicious. The Poké bowls are the best in the area I've had so far.

I have been to Food For Life on 2 occasions. My first time there, I ordered a rainbow roll. It was freshly made but lacked the delicate flavors of a true sushi restaurant. I would not get sushi here again. On my second visit I decided to try a smoothie, which was also freshly made. The smoothie was a much better option. If it is nice out, I would suggest getting the food to go an eating in a gazebo beside a beautiful koi pond across the street. read more

Great place if your looking for a quick bite to eat in the edgewater area. They have great sandwiches, smoothies and fresh juices. I haven't tried their sushi so I have to come back for that.

The people who worked there were very friendly. Overall great tasting food here at food for life! read more

I went there for the first time for lunch because I read great reviews. And the reviews are pretty right. The sushi is fresh!

They also have sandwiches that sound delicious! Need to try that next read more
