    Outside restaurant

    Excellent breakfast service family style the ambience is like you eating on your grandma house

    Fries

    Wow... I rushed into yelp to let people know that this place is legit! My coworkers and I left work for a quick lunch and we all left very satisfied! The food came out fast and so delicious, I devoured my turkey sandwich, my friend raved over and over about her beef gyro which she barely finished cause it was so big! As you can tell I'm very excited about this place, the fries were also very addicting and they were so generous with the amount they serve. Finally, the owner was soooo nice, he was around the restaurant, cleaning and greeting the customers. We even witnessed him giving a small child free cookies. Today's experience made me truly treasure local businesses and their owners. The only thing I would say needs improvement is the menu, there's a lot to order and you should come ready to order because servers are ready for your order.

    Saddle River deli does it again. Huge sandwich, no expenses spared, fully loaded Delicious. Epic

    Solid sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. Hobo wrap is filling. Wish it was open later and sundays though.

    Controversial review. I went to this spot after seeing a…read morefriend go on instagram. I had to sit outside because I did go with my dog and they were friendly and happy to accommodate. I decided to order their basic breakfast plate because I really wanted just like scrambled eggs and to get a feel of what they kind of have to offer before I get anything else. The scrambled eggs were probably some of the best eggs I've had in a very long time.They were perfectly soft scrambled. I really liked the potatoes that it came with, the side salad, roasted tomato and I ordered an extra side of sausage too Everything was delicious. I really enjoyed it but halfway through my meal. I did notice there was a hair in my salad haha I know this is a big deal breaker for a lot of people because it is very off-putting. But here's the thing, your hair falling off your head is 100% common.And as much as I am sure they are trying to prevent it an accident can happen.So I can overlook it this time. Especially since the food was yummy. I also did not say anything to my server, and I paid my bill and tipped. I wasn't looking for a sorry or a few meal. Mistakes happen, hopefully this was a one time thing because I want to go back lol

    4.5 stars -- only because I've only been there once. Once I return, I'm sure I'm going to pop up to…read more5 stars! This tiny place in Ho-Ho-Kus was a truly lovely brunch experience. The food was fresh (how did they find a flawless avocado in the middle of winter???) and the flavors delicious. The service was outstanding -- weekend brunch was packed, and they put your name on a list in case you want to walk around town while you're waiting. Don't go too far, because somehow they're able to move the tables without making folks feel rushed. Each person we encountered -- the host, the folks at the counter, our server -- was nicer than the last. I got a bowl that had slightly cooked spinach, poached eggs, sweet potatoes and that GOHgeous avocado I mentioned above. One thing I really liked about this bowl is that it didn't have rice in it -- something that would've made it too overwhelming. This was the perfect combo and portion size. Someone else in our small group got the avocado toast (more avocado!!) and also said it was excellent. Definitely plan to return!

    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ PHENOMENAL FOOD!!!!! ++++ Miso Marinated Salmon - Was absolutely delicious. Salmon was cooked perfectly, wasn't dry and still moist. The citrus scented wild rice was excellent too. ++++ Truffle Burger - Honestly, one of the BEST burgers I've had in a longggggg, longgggg time. Everything was perfect about it - the caramelized onions, gruyere on top, bacon, truffle aioli, and, of course, the burger itself. The patty was dripppping with juices with every single bite and cooked to medium excellence. Oh, and those truffle fries that came with it? To die for! Loved the thinness of them and there was PLENTY of it to go around. ++++ Kids Macaroni & Cheese with Fruit - Relatively simple, but the creamy kind of mac and cheese. Kids absolutely loved it. The fruits were just grapes and a few little slices of pineapple, which we would have liked a bit more of. ++++ Kids Cheeseburger and Fries - Burger was DEFINITELY, without a doubt cooked well-done. It was a bit on the tiny side, but we still split it between the kids. Once again, fries were fantastic and there was more than enough to share. ++++ Banana-Rama Smoothie - Strawberry, banana goodness. Could definitely tell this was not artificial from the "true" flavor of the smoothie. It wasn't super sweet. + Service was very good throughout the evening. ++++ Food came out shockingly fast and fresh. ++++ Our waiter was friendly, on point and came by to check on us a few times. + Plenty of space inside of the restaurant, including an outdoor-indoor tent that is heated. + Decor was modern and contemporary, very clean inside. + Ambiance for dinner was dark and intimate, which caught me off guard because I thought it would be more casual, but perfect for group gatherings still and casual dine-ins. + PLENTY of parking in the large lot in front and to the side of the restaurant, which is shared within a little strip mall. + They take reservations online. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Nada! MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada! RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Dined from 5:45 - 7:15 PM on a Friday and most of the evening crowd was older and there weren't many families with kids. There were maybe 2-3 families with kids, but they left by 6:15 PM. Most of the groups were groups of 4, seemingly catching up during a nice meal. CONCLUSION -------------------- = I was pleasantly surprised by the experience we had here. I figured this would be a super casual Friday after work/school dinner with the fam, but this turned out to be one of the best meals we've had in North Jersey in a while. Food, service and ambiance here was excellent. Wish they had .5 stars on Yelp because Saddle River Cafe is as close to perfection as it can get at 4.5 stars!

My love and I found ourselves in the area and wanted to grab a light lunch before going about our afternon. We arrived around 12:30 PMand we still had a 25 minute wait. Clearly, they're doing something right! The atmosphere is bright and inviting. This is a place you can hit up for a quick lunch or linger over a nice glass of wine. Shishito Peppers to start. Ample portion size and perfectly salted. Brussels Bowl for me (quinoa, grilled chicken, crispy Brussels sprouts, pickled red onions, and lemon parmesan dressing) and Turkey Panini for him (roasted turkey, applewood smoked bacon, butter lettuce, tomato, red onion, basil tarragon aioli, and rosemary focaccia). We loved our choices. We were clean-plate club members during this lunch! We love that they have truly fresh-squeezed orange juice. You can't go back to drinking Tropicana after this!

    Always nice to visit a small, cozy, hometown Cafe with various egg dishes, pancakes, waffles,…read morequiche, sandwiches, soups, and pastries (scones are excellent). You'll have a leisurely experience. The food overall is pretty good, and portions are regular sized, not large. I enjoyed the loaded eggs with potatoes and the huevos rancheros. We didn't like the eggs with corned beef hash, which consisted of rather large ham chunks. The orange and plain scones were crumbly and yummy. Now that they offer online reservations, I'm more inclined to visit because otherwise you risk showing up and having to wait (or leaving) because it's a small space. There's outdoor and indoor seating.

So one person parks wrong and it messes up the whole row. There is the option to park in the cvs parking lot but it is frowned upon. You can dine inside our outside under their awning which is lovely in nice weather. We opted to sit inside. The tables on the side we sat were definitely tight and close together. The food was phenomenal. I order the brioche French toast with home fries and two eggs over easy. Happy because they use real maple syrup at this spot. My home fries I asked to be well done and crunchy but they came out a bit mushy but still edible. My friend ordered their weekly special of a pumpkin spice waffle and she said it was delicious. Their coffee was average. Nothing special. The only thing I couldn't figure out was my brioche French toast or the syrup tasted like amaretto which wasn't that big of an issue I would've just liked to know it was flavored. Service was good as it was crazy busy but we still felt well taken care of. I look forward to my next meal here.

    My experience at First Watch was a complete failure in both service and management…read more We were a party of 7, seated at 12:00 and ordered by 12:15. Most meals came out around 12:30, but one gluten-free order was completely mishandled. One person in our group did not receive their food with the rest of us. We waited over 20 minutes while everyone else ate, and by the time we were finishing, he had only been given a small side of eggs, his main dish (gluten-free French toast) still had not arrived. We asked staff multiple times, politely, and were consistently dismissed. No eye contact, no updates, no urgency. Our server was absent for long periods (10-15 minutes at a time), drinks were empty, and no one took responsibility for fixing the issue. By 1:10 PM, over an hour after being seated, the full order still hadn't come out. At that point, we had no choice but to ask for it to be wrapped to go, since the rest of us had already finished eating. The most concerning part was the manager's response. After calmly explaining the situation, there was no apology, no attempt to correct the experience, and no effort to take accountability. Saying "I'll talk to your server" and leaving it at that is not an acceptable response to a clear service breakdown. This wasn't just a delay, it was a complete lack of coordination, communication, and basic customer service. Mishandling a gluten-free order and then ignoring the table is unacceptable. The food itself was good, but the way this was handled reflects very poorly on the staff and management. I will not be returning, and I would not recommend this location based on this experience.
