Entryway and scenic "moon" table
Patty K.

The food, service, and ambience were all a treat. We had the muhamarra, lamb manti, mixed pide and halva ice cream--all delicious and satisfying. Our servers were attentive, and helpful with any questions and requests. The actual restaurant is so spacious and elegantly decorated. I love all the artwork and unique touches. I was particularly glad to enjoy it in spring when they have so many floral, fauna, and vibrant fruit accents. I look forward to coming back to Mado for more memorable meals.

The restaurant is easily located on Kinderkamack Rd River Edge with handicapped parking in front and ample parking around back. The restaurant is pretty inside with a bright and clean Mediterranean feel. The service was exceptional, quick and professional. The food was plentiful and delicious. We started with an assortment of dips served with a plateful of very light and warm pita, dynamite shrimp and an amazing chopped Greek salad. Several of us opted for the Bronzino, and a couple had kabobs. We ended with a bite of baklava and coffee/tea. The prices are reasonable and food plentiful and we had left overs to go! Definitely heading back to Mado!

Mado has been one of my go to places for amazing authentic Armenian cuisine. This place has been highly recommended by my in-laws and after going multiple times I've finally came around to writing a review. The restaurant is huge on the inside great for bringing friends and family. We've had parties here with up to 20+ people and they were able to accommodate. The food is always epic and I highly recommend the chicken shish kebab. The chicken kebab is by far the most tender chicken I've ever had. This place has always been a treat to go to when craving Armenian food.

Bronzini

The food was delicious and very fresh! We loved how pretty the restaurant was and the servers were very kind Well priced fresh mediterranean food, would 100% go back & recommend!!

What a hidden gem! Great service and delicious meal! We loved having an early dinner around 5:30p Saturday night. Definitely got packed by 6:30p. No reservations though. We loved the appetizer we got. Cheese rolls were fresh and hot. I thought the cheese was a little salty but my hubby loved it. The dinner meals were great. We ordered Adana kebab and lamb shish with gyro platters. Both were fantastic. The sauce was amazing as well. All in all we were very happy with finding this place. The dessert was also amazing. We got the milk pudding to share. Will return!

Our second visit in couple of months. Everything was so good. Fluffy soft bread, amazing chunky liver, crispy calamari and amazing adana with yogurt. The baklava was a perfect sweet finish to meal. The restaurant had lovely Christmas decorations including a huge tree. Service was excellent.

Excellent food and service. All are flavorful and big portion. I like everything that we ordered. Very nice and clean restaurant. It's big and spacious. Parking in the back (take the road by 7-11)

Table for one at 4:25 and the Restuarant is empty. Takes about 45 min for me to finish a meal. Embarrassing to deny me a seat. Shameful service and should be ashamed. Restuarant completely empty. I'm sure nobody is coming 45 mins for one small table.

Great food. Reasonable Prices. Service needs a little bit of improvement…read more Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday. Happened to be on Wednesday night. Place wasn't packed but there were some customers there. So the restaurant is not much for decor IMHO but has excellent food. Even on Wednesday night. Chuchvara, Lagman, Shurpa, Achik-Chuchuk, Various Kebabs, Beef Tongue, and most importantly Cheburek. The only dish that can go wrong like a puffer fish. Underdo it and it's inedible, overdo it the same, wrong oil or too much oil and your customers will run screaming for the hills. This was actually done so well we went for seconds, light and crispy on the outside and nice and juicy inside. I'm drooling just writing about it.... A great place to visit, service on the slow night could've been a little better but I can't really complain.

We had an incredible time celebrating a friends birthday recently and it turns out we will be going…read moreagain soon and I can't wait. The food was so authentic and flavorful- we had lamb, beef and chicken mixed with all the dishes you might expect from potatoes eggs and vegetables. While the restaurant is located in a strip mall, you'd never know it. The ceiling is covered in cloth coverings that you know are authentic. The dance floor is so inviting-we spent the night between dancing and eating. The servers were fantastic. We look forward to our next visit

There are truly no words that can fully capture how special this place is--but I will try…read more This Burmese restaurant is, without exaggeration, addictive. Every single dish is crafted with so much care, flavor, and passion that it becomes impossible not to come back again and again. The taste is something I honestly cannot even begin to describe--you just have to experience it. Sato, the owner, is one of the kindest and most genuine people I have ever met. He goes above and beyond for every single customer, and it shows in everything he does. You can feel his passion for cooking in every bite. He is always smiling, always welcoming, and truly puts his heart into his food. The dish in the photo is called "Aja's Special," and it says everything you need to know. My husband couldn't even wait for me to take the picture--his fork was already going in for a taste. That's how irresistible it is. This is not just a restaurant--it's an experience. A warm, welcoming place where incredible food meets an incredible person behind it. Just a warning: you will get addicted. Without a doubt, this is one of the best restaurants in New Jersey.

Since we were new customers, the owner gave us some chips for free, which was super nice of him. I split the Egg Curry with Coconut Rice and also the Bait Noodles with a friend and both were excellent. The egg curry was exactly what we had wanted and was so flavorful. The noodles were also good, and was a very generous portion. The owner was super nice and walked us through the menu since none of us had really had Burmese food before. I would definitely come back here the next time we're going to Gundam Planet.

First time I ordered from here, the food was amazing. I highly recommend the chicken tikka masala…read morerice platter. I've never had a complaint about it. Its topped with fresh chopped onions, tomato, and cilantro. There's plenty of chicken in it. The platter itself is very small for the price, just a heads up. The aloo parathas are my go to. I've tried the one with the meat and the meat was inconsistently placed throughout the paratha. The aloo paratha is good, but could use more filling. Here's where they lost me: the raita- that yogurt sauce that comes with the paratha- is ALWAYS inconsistent. The first time I ordered the paratha this raita was the best i've ever had. It was raita with added tomato and onions. Blew my mind and I ordered it again. Next time they give me a yogurty mess that I wouldn't call a raita. No added anything. The time after that they forgot to include my raita and when I picked it up later, it was another disappointing variation. I've stopped ordering their parathas because of this since I cant eat dry partha by itself and who knows what kind of raita they'll give me. Overall, I continue to get platters from them because they're within walking distance for me and the CTM rice platter is so good.

Gyro King 150 Washington Ave…read more Dumont, NJ 07628 Wings Shish Kebob Chicken Tilkka Platter Chicken Rice Platter Lamb Rice Platter Chicken Lamb Mix Platter with shawarma Appearance: 1/2 Taste: On the main intersection at Washington and Madison Avenues is a local Halal restaurant. Both appetizers were excellent! The wings are hot and crispy. While the shish kebob was also really tasty, it has an elongated appearance that looks similar to a specific body part (hence the main reason for a lower appearance rating). While I was apprehensive about trying lamb, the green eggs & ham situation came into effect! As soon as I took my first bite, I was hooked as I devoured that platter! The shawarma sauce is really creamy and it goes with anything and everything! You can either have it on the side or on top of your meal. Some of the dishes, such as the chicken tikka and shish kebob, are cooked on the grill and it will take a few minutes longer. But it's definitely worth the wait! All in all, these Halal entrees are fantastic. The portion sizes are really large; in most cases, one serving will feed 2 parties. As I mentioned in previous reviews, come with an open mind and never judge a book by its cover. #dumontnj #gyroking #halal #shishkebob #chickentikka #shawarma #njfoodie #lamb #lambriceplatter #chickentikkaplatter
