It was just the three of us, my daughter, my sister in law, and myself, and we were beyond pleased from start to finish. The girls ordered the iced lavender berry matcha latte and the coco cloud matcha smoothie, and they couldn't stop raving about how good they were. I went with the cold pressed Defender juice and the Recharge, both were incredibly fresh and delicious. We decided to share a few plates so we could try a variety, and everything exceeded expectations. The avocado smash, tomato burrata, and spicy ahi tuna, all on gluten free bread, were outstanding. You can truly taste the quality and freshness in every bite. We even ordered the protein waffles for dessert, and they were just as impressive. The ambiance added even more to the experience. The decorations were beautiful and thoughtfully done, and the music created the perfect vibe for a relaxed and enjoyable brunch. What really made the experience unforgettable, though, was the service. Everyone was warm and welcoming, but the manager or owner, not entirely sure, took things to another level. She went above and beyond by surprising my daughter with a granola cake and birthday candle, such a thoughtful touch that meant so much to us. The food alone had me planning our next visit, but the exceptional service moved that timeline up even sooner. Highly recommend!

Owner Laura introduced me to a few of the most popular menu items. Blue Mystique: This refreshing smoothie is blended with pineapple, banana, mango, and blue spirulina, which contributes to its solid aqua appearance. If you do prefer an alternative beverage, a variety of shots and juices are also an option. 3 Cheese Italian: It's time to take a virtual trip to Italy with this specialty toast. It has its fair share of prosciutto and melted cheeses and is piled high and deep with arugula on jalapeño cheddar toast. Have your utensils handy as you'll definitely need them for this fulfilling starter that practically eats like a meal. OG Acai: This bowl is plentifully packed with acai blend and is topped with multiple fruits, granola, and cacao nibs. You will be satisfied with every bite regardless of whichever topping you choose. As a bonus, a water cooler is available to supplement your meal. Feel free to purchase apparel ranging from hats to sweatshirts. My dining experience at Tostique was exemplary and unique. Thank you Owner Laura and staff for serving an outstanding meal along with top quality service. #toastique #toastiqueridgewood #ogacai #bluemystique #3cheeseitalian #ridgewoodnj #garbersquare #toastiridgewood

You order at the counter and then take a seat. The avocado toast felt elevated, with thin slices of bread, arugula, feta cheese, and a nicely cooked egg. The Baja chickpea burger was also tasty and not dry on ciabatta bread ($13). They offer lattes and other such drinks. The staff is friendly and welcoming. There's also a discount if you pay by cash. Apparently the chef competed against Bobby Flay on a Food Network show and won, which is a claim to fame. There's street parking and a parking lot across the street. Also nearby is a Kings supermarket and Walgreens. Short walk into the main strip of town.

I enjoy that there are plenty of options to keep rotating flavors so nothing ever feels repetitive or boring. It's nice to have a place where you can mix it up instead of getting stuck ordering the same thing every time. The Purple Haze smoothie is my usual order and never disappoints -- flavorful, refreshing, and perfectly blended. I do occasionally mix it up, but I always come back to that one. Their energy bites are another standout -- satisfying a sweet craving while still being made with better-for-you ingredients. I usually keep a few in my fridge for grab-and-go energy. They also offer healthy prepared meals, which is incredibly convenient. I haven't personally tried them due to a severe gluten allergy, but friends who have enjoy them. This is primarily a grab-and-go spot, though there is minimal indoor seating if you want to stay. The staff has consistently been friendly and attentive, always acknowledging customers when they walk in. Parking tip: Westwood has metered street parking, and during peak hours it can be tough to find a spot. Even if you're running in quickly, make sure you feed the meter -- tickets are given out easily. My only real disappointment is that they discontinued the buy-10-get-1-free punch card. I was definitely bummed to see that go and would love to see some kind of rewards program return. Overall, Fitrition is a reliable local favorite for fresh shakes, snacks, and grab-and-go fuel -- it's exactly the kind of spot you're happy to keep in your rotation.

Squeeze the day!…read more Beets Juice Bar is a small local business with 3 locations in NJ: Park Ridge, Allendale, and Montvale. I was in the Montvale area and decided to stop in because ya girl was PARCHED and in need of a refreshing pick-me-up. The store is located inside The Shoppes at DePiero Farm, so there's plenty of parking available. The interior is bright, modern, and decorated with lush plants that create a relaxing atmosphere. There's five tables, along with counter seating where you can watch the kitchen in action as they prep and blend each drink fresh to order. The menu is packed with options--it almost feels a little overwhelming! They've got everything from fresh juices and smoothies to protein shakes, wellness shots, and coffee, all made with a solid variety of fruits, vegetables, and superfoods. Looking for something more filling? There are acai bowls you can fully customize with different bases and toppings. There's also grab-and-go items like overnight oats, wraps, protein bites, and veggies with hummus. Most of the menu is organic, gluten free, and vegan. It's technically healthy and an easy way to get in some extra antioxidants and nutrients. But it's also worth keeping in mind that some of the drinks and bowls can sneak up on you with high sugar levels and calories. After going back and forth between a few options, I decided to order the Inflammation Fix Juice [~$10], made with cucumber, kale, apple, lemon, turmeric, and ginger. There's a 2.6% discount for cash payments. Service was quick, and my drink was prepared within a few minutes. Was it worth the $10? No. It wasn't like any juice bar drink I've had before...not in the good way. It came out almost lukewarm instead of cold. The texture was a bit frothy. It tasted a little too sweet. The apple and cucumber really took over the flavor profile and masked the rest of the ingredients. I could barely taste the ginger and turmeric, which was a disappointment because I LOVE that strong, spicy kick they give. I'm giving it 3 stars because it wouldn't be fair to write them off after trying just one drink. If I'm in the area again, I'd probably give them another try and maybe get a smoothie instead. And honestly, I'm not a big fan of spending money on juices and smoothies since I prefer eating fruits and veggies whole. But every now and then, it's just easier to pay for the convenience lol.

They have an assortment of prepared foods and packaged snacks for sale. My main issue is that they're a fitness/nutrition focused place that doesn't offer any macro or nutritional information.

Macros are huge for a lot of people on their fitness journey. That's one simple change they can make that would bump them up to a 5 star establishment for me.

(Just after Shake Shack, Look for the Verizon store on the front corner of the building) Plenty of parking in the rear. When you enter this beautiful store, fresh organic produce in abundance are presented. Prices are on par or even better than Whole Foods. I love their self serve bins of bulk ingredients especially the nooch! Iykyk! The cold refrigerator offers an abundance of healthy options, love their plant based vegan products such as yogurts, milks and cheeses. Found my favorite jackfruit brand of frozen ingredients.

It's a little hard to miss, however you can see it once you've entered the shopping center. Family owned and operated since 1987. Think of Whole Foods, much less busy, not a whole lot of rushing (which is a good thing) and you take your time to browse around the smaller store. The quiet and calm was cool, for a Thursday evening, not too shabby. We came across a lot of products we haven't seen before. Great options from a vast majority of gluten free to bring your own containers for pasta to help reduce waste. Plenty of signs to look at and read what we can do to be proactive with our bodies, lifestyle and the environment. I loved knowing this was a smaller scale. We accidentally forgot our reusable bags, however bought a new MOM'S insulated bag. Until next time, we will be back!
