    summer corn chowder
    Bre Y.

    I've been ordering from here regularly since my first review. Their soup is my go to, so many different rotating soups, all fresh, homemade, and flavorful. There isn't another restaurant I can think of that offers that. Soup stand outs: Corn Chowder, Chicken Noodle, Baked Potato, Broccoli Cheddar, and the Thai Coconut Curry Carrot. I also love their sandwiches, like the Urs, the Gunther, and the Bearbo. My go to is the Gunther, but instead of the aioli, I add balsamic glaze and a side of their chimichuri. The Bearbo is a two person breakfast sandwich, and I say this as someone who always finishes their meal. It is a crusty bread roll stuffed with eggs, cheese, and pork roll ("taylor ham," where I'm from it's called pork roll!). Indulgent and incredible. Gunthers is a staple in my rotation and should be in yours too!

    Amazing coffee shop in Ridgewood! Their coffee is really good quality and they have a full food/breakfast menu too. The staff is extremely friendly and kind, and I always enjoy chatting with whoever is working. There is limited seating but it has a very classic coffee shop ambiance. Also, The Gunther is the cutest pup!!

    Delicious sandwich and burgers. Can't wait to come back to try the soups bc I love soup so much. The drink was solid. Nothing was overly sweet. Love the interior and dog inspired arts. Service was smooth.

    The Kithy one of my favorites with bacon  A must try!

    Food Yummy Service : excellent Ambiance Casual I love it! Its a pet friendly place, so dont hesitate to bring your furry friend

    seasonal special: key lime matcha latte
    Chantel T.

    The food was great! The Spicy Pickle Smash Burger was delicious and very satisfying -- great flavors and cooked very well. The Key Lime Matcha Latte was interesting, I liked the concept of it as well as the Graham Crackers and Whipped Cream, but to me tasted more like Key Lime than matcha. Only docking a star because I noticed that service during lunch on a Monday was pretty slow -- the staff is really friendly, but wish they gave a heads up as to current wait times. It took 15 minutes to get my drink even though I was the next order up, and 35 minutes for my burger to come out. The table next to me also had to go inside and ask about their order since it was taking awhile. Definitely understand ironing out service kinks since they are new, but I'd probably just order in advance and call in instead of dining in next time.

    Half a Turkey Sando and sparking lemonade

    I went with a friend for brunch on Saturday around 1:30 PM. The place is fairly small so it gets packed quickly. She got there before me and was able to snag a table but it was pretty hard to get one. although I did see a bit of change with the table next to me so maybe there is a way to get a table inside. they have AC however the windows are open so it's not super cold. There's also outdoor seating. I got the turkey Sando, which comes with a slaw and an aïoli. It was delicious and very filling, I took half of it home. And I also had the sparkling lemonade they make there with earl gray, which was amazing. my friend got the ricotta toast, which she found delicious and got the egg sandwich which she also liked. I like their menu much more than salty lady luncheonette but salty lady has a lot more space which is nice.

    Gunther's is a must-visit spot for sandwich lovers! Their sandwiches are absolutely amazing, and the service is top-notch. You won't be disappointed with the delicious food and excellent service at Gunther's.

    Background sandwich is The Akio. Foreground is The Kithy. Both tasty!

    Small luncheonette. Long lines but goes by fast. Everything is made fresh so expect a wait time…read more The Dill Party was amazing. Turkey sandwich, cheese dill avocado.

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 7 Overall: 8 This is one of the hottest sandwich shops in all of NYC over the past couple of years. You see them on social media and every list for the best sandwiches. Every time I stopped by, I see a line, which hopefully means that they have developed a loyal following. I have now visited a handful of times, hence I feel confident enough to properly evaluate the restaurant. Here are my thoughts on some of their sandwiches. Dill Party (7.5/10) - This is one pf their most popular sandwiches and never leaves the menu. It's not my favorite, but it's a super solid choice. The dill flavor simply permeates through each bite of turkey and avocado. If I don't see my favorites on the menu, I wouldn't hesitate to order this sandwich. Fancy Bologna (7/10) - I love mortadella, but this sandwich does not hit high marks for me. I think it's the pepper spread that slightly distracts my taste buds from experiencing the delicate flavors. Chicky (8.5/10) - Rare hot sandwich on the menu. Everything works. I love the juicy ground chicken patty paired with creamy feta and smoked paprika mayo on a sesame seed bun. Charred onion and arugula are perfect additions too. Dr. Broccolini (8/10) - I added Spanish anchovies to this sandwich, which took it from good to fantastic. Never thought I would enjoy a mostly vegetarian sandwich, but this is one of my favorites here for its textural and flavor contrast. Fillet-y of Fishy (9.5/10) - One of the best things I ate in 2024. They need to have this sandwich more often. I have been dreaming about this nearly perfect fish sandwich for over 1.5 years now. Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie (8/10) - Very good finish to the meal. Not overly sweet, with just enough touch of salt. Relatively crispy with a slightly gooey center. Pistachio Chocolate Cake (8.5/10) - Had this at the Queen's Together International Expo at the end of 2024. Couldn't get enough of this deliciously moist cake. Wish they make this product regularly. Rhubarb Custard Cake (7/10) - Not bad, but nothing special. The cake was moist and the custard was light and creamy, but the rhubarb didn't have any impact. Yuzu Meringue Pie (8.5/10) - What a great graham cracker crust. For a meringue lover, it's like a key lime pie on steroids. Slightly sweet for me, but a wonderful slice of pie overall. As you can see, I appreciate most of the sandwiches and desserts that Salty Lunch Lady offers. However, I have to admit that the prices are slightly high for a relatively small sized sandwich. I guess it's the norm nowadays with all these fancy sandwich shops popping up in different parts of NYC. Besides, I'm part of the statistics after all.

However, the entrees and service missed the mark. The food sat on the counter for awhile - we had to ask for them to serve it. The burgers were okay. The lamb skewers were rare (not that they asked how we wanted it prepared) and stringy with tendons. A tiny portion of the pasta was served in an appetizer bowl - we politely asked if this was an appetizer or entree. Were told it's entree. Even though half the restaurant was empty, we were rush to pay the bill. Sadly, we will not be returning.

This review is for a delivery order placed through Uber Eats so your experience may differ, but I felt like the reality didn't live up to the hyped expectations. My chicken parm was $23.75.. maybe it's cheaper in person, but for that price I want the best chicken parm of my life. The bread was the best part in my opinion. The breading was coming off the chicken and the meat itself wasn't the most tender. It was fine, but not worth the price I paid through Uber Eats. I would consider going back maybe for dinner one day, the pasta looked pretty good. Don't think I'll be back for the sandwiches!

We went before a show and were more than excited to hear that it was Sinatra Night! Hell yeah. I love Frank Sinatra. What a perfect date night. The band also played songs from Elvis Costello and the Carpenters. I noticed some older gentleman came to watch them. He drove to the show and ordered a hefty size of creamy pasta. This guy is my hero. We ordered the calamari to start. And Nick had a Birra Morreti and I had the "Diesel" cocktail that had the perfect amaro mix! The cocktail was balanced with sweet, strong and still remained smooth. The mushroom "Funghi" pizza was banging. I loved seeing the whole mushrooms on top. And the pesto marries well with the flavors. We devoured our decadent date night meal while time traveling to a different era with the tunes.

If there were a footrest bar at the bottom it might've helped, but as it was, my butt was not fitting on that seat.

Both were absolutely lovely and the perfect way to end the night. The staff were friendly, fast, and really on top of things. Next time I'd definitely come for a table, and maybe a proper meal, because the dishes coming out of the kitchen looked divine. My only gripe? Seventeen dollars for an espresso martini feels... ambitious for Ridgewood. It's not like this is some high-end cocktail bar, it's an elevated pizzeria. I'm not sure I'd come back specifically for the drinks, but I'd absolutely come back for the food and the service. I took home a second piece of that tiramisu. It was so delicious!

I came here my first time visit in May 2021 and there were few items on the menu, that are Italian sandwich and there were little or no choices for breakfast, and the breakfast hours had no limit, until this year 2023, as I ate her "breakfast" ham, egg, and cheese croissant sandwich at 5 in the afternoon. And also, that was how she ran out of ingredients for breakfast sandwich, which now in 2023 limited the sales of breakfast sandwiches to opening time thru 2 in the afternoon. Also, until I had my promotion on my part time job which started in February 2023, I stopped going to this place due to the rising prices inflation and went someplace else where is cheaper. So I can get used to the expenses, and therefore as I expected, it definitely will be nice if this store can innovate to sell more various types of Italian food imported from anywhere of European country- not only from Italy.
