    Happy Hour time.
    Jose P.

    Stopped into MK for Happy Hour (Monday - Friday, from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM) and it was a pleasant visit. The bar and restaurant are clean and the bar has two televisions, in case the game is on. Howard, the Bartender, was exemplary. He created very good drinks and gave very good recommendations. You cannot beat the prices, both for drinks and food. Our beverages were: Mango Margarita (El Toro Tequila, lemon and lime juice, simple syrup, splash of orange juice, and mango monin) and an Isla de Coco (Malibu Coconut Rum, Midori melon liqueur, pineapple juice, lime). Both were amazing, strong, and I'm glad that I wasn't driving. Since it was Taco Tuesday, I ordered the Chicken Tacos (Chicken, marinated in red sauce, topped with pineapple, pickled cabbage, carrots, and red onions). This order comes with 4 fully packed soft tacos and one order is large enough to share. The chicken was well seasoned and I enjoyed every bite. Highly recommended. MK will definitely be revisited and I hope everyone takes advantage of these prices and quantity of food.

    Had a couple hours while waiting for my daughters hair appt to finish and found MK. It was a Saturday afternoon and wanted to catch the Michigan/OSU game. Found it on a tv and sat at the bar. It was brunch time, but I wasn't looking for something big. A few items looked worth trying and I'll check them out next time. Did grab a Bloody Mary and definitely hit the spot. Had a little kick, but not powerful. Also Chicken Empanadas, which were tasty. Not the best, not the worst. Overall, no issues with MK Valencia, especially for what I was looking for. I'll be back when my daughter has her next appointment.

    Impossible Burger
    Jessi T.

    Went here for Saturday brunch. I was so happy to find this place because most places only serve Sunday brunch. We ordered the bruschetta and mac and cheese bites for appetizers which were very yummy. I wasn't crazy about the garlic aioli for the mac and cheese bites but the bites themselves I thought were good. The bruschetta was about as perfect as bruschetta can get. For brunch, you get an entree, dessert and coffee/tea/soda for one price. I got the impossible burger, chocolate lava cake and coffee. The chocolate lava cake was an upcharge but I'm glad I did it because it was delicious and oozing with chocolate. So much chocolate that I couldn't eat it all. The impossible burger was ok but to be honest it's hard to make one of those very flavorful. The coffee was good. I ordered a passionfruit mimosa as well which was just ok. It mostly tasted like champagne instead of passionfruit. The service was phenomenal! I loved our server. She was so attentive and thoughtful. She came to check on us all the time and everything came out promptly. All in all, I would definitely come here for brunch again. Definitely try this place if you're looking for a good brunch spot in the area. If you're looking for parking, there's a municipal parking lot behind the liquor store across the street. There's also street parking. Both are metered and take quarters only.

    One of my girlfriends and I got together to get brunch. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and told the hostess my name and she sat me towards the back. My friend arrived a little after I sat. Sofia was our server and she was nice. The place was super cute and had an area for private parties. I ordered the seafood fritti and my friend ordered the zucchini chips and mozzarella sticks. The seafood fritti was good but the shrimp was a tad salty. My friend said the zucchini chips were salty but she enjoyed her mozzarella sticks. We had a pretty decent time here. Fyi they have a good brunch special.

    We were looking for a good brunch and remembered hearing about MK Valencia. I made reservations and was surprised I had to put my CC down as a deposit to hold our reservations. I was expecting a packed house and DJ. Neither was the case. I didn't want a boozy brunch but with adding a credit card to file - you'd think otherwise. There was music but pretty low. I had a spicy margarita. It was delicious. The food was so good and loved the dessert. Overall it was a great experience and great service.

    OMG! I didn't wanna leave. The food was delicious and the service was great. The host Zee and the manager treated us like we were royalty.

We ordered a few things. Spicy Tuna Tartare: wasn't spicy, didn't taste fresh which wasn't a deterrent to me as this isn't a seafood restaurant or fine dining. Next time I'd pass on that. Bavarian Pretzel: amazing. Very tasty. Came out nice and hot. That rarebit cheese sauce? Oh honey that can come home with me anytime. Absolutely delicious. And this is coming from someone who hates that fake cheese, cheese whiz type taste. Margherita Pizza: didn't come out hot which is probably why I wasn't a fan of it. It was pretty mediocre for such a basic pizza. And the food didn't come out all together, so not sure why that didn't come out hot. Wings and waffles: Tasty buffalo wings. The waffles actually taste like funnel cake which was a nice surprise. THEN. The burger came out and that is why this review dropped. It had a small hair on the side of the plate and a closer look at the rest of the plate, you'll see a long hair on the pickle. That was disappointing but happy to have tried the place nonetheless.

There were multiple places throughout the establishment which were set up with a back drop to snap pictures.  The vibe on the top floor blew my mind. I never imaged there would be a place like this is Bergenfield. There were dancers on stilts, confetti, smoke machines, and a screen to watch the dj. I enjoyed myself.

We had ordered Guacamole which tasted kind of bland and was just average. Drinks were pretty good though. My main issue was how they have setup their Hookah. Very limited Flavors to begin with and except for one, all other flavors were not so great. On top of that, they charge $10 extra to replace the Coals. $10 for COALS..?!?!? I have been to so many Hookah Lounges and this was the 1st we were ever charged for getting the coals changed. That is just atrocious. Switching the complete bowl with new flavor was $20, so obviously we ended up opting for that eventhough the 1st bowl/flavour was still good and just needed new coals.

We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.
