    French Onion Soup
    Natalie S.

    Met a friend here for lunch. The dining room was not busy, but the ambience was very pretty and inviting. Our food was AMAZING!! - Grilled artichoke appetizer special - French onion soup - Chicken Milanese - *Sea scallops over risotto - Chocolate Lava Cake - Mixed Berries *The only reason I didn't give it a full 5 stars is when my friend got her scallops and cut into them, they were under cooked. She gave them back to the waiter. We waited and upon getting them back, they were her old scallops. On the few occasions I've had to send food back, and considering scallops don't take long to cook, I was surprised they didn't make her a new plate; I wasn't thrilled about that. I asked her how the risotto was and she said it was bland, boring, and not flavorful. Otherwise, the rest of our food was delicious!!! I will definitely be returning!

    Lamb chops are delicious!

    Oooof! Not sure if I walked into the right place, but I left wondering what all the fuss was about here. Maybe back in the day it was something special, but times change. -Had a tequila drink and couldn't even taste the booze. -Fried Calamari appetizer was fake AF! -Meatball appetizer had too much seasoning. -Tomahawk steak special wasn't even cooked the way I asked and I wasn't pleased with the cut. Too expensive for the quality. Something isn't right here. FYI: Plenty of parking with its large lot in the back. They have an upstairs party room and rooftop.

    I have been here before and I like it as much as I did the first time. We were a very large party. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. They have a pretty extensive wine list. We had two bottles of the Terra Doro Zinfandel, Prosecco and Martinis. For the eats, I had the Tuna Panko which was very good. Others had the Tuscan Seafood Stew, Veal Chop, Prime Rib. No complaints. Everything was tasty. We had Tiramisu and the Chocolate Mousse for dessert, along with coffee and tea. I do the like the ambience and overall vibe here. It can be sexy for a date and also great with friends. I definitely would come back.

    As you can see from my past reviews this is one of my local favorites, which I would visit for their price fix 3 course lunch specials every Sunday. After more than a year since we moved out of this area I returned here with my family of four for Sunday lunch. We were the second booth to be seated. As we sat more tables were seated and became busier than when we last visited a year ago during lunch. I guess their lunch business is picking up here post COVID. The three of us ordered their price fix 3-course lunch, which is now $29.95. In the past a glass of wine was included, which is no longer included. I started with and enjoyed my two peach martinis. I also enjoyed my baked clams, which were smaller than I last had a year ago. I also enjoyed my 6 ounce medium rare filet mignon with three sauces, mushrooms and vegetables. I opted for their steak au poivre peppercorn sauce. My filet was properly cooked. We mentioned knowing Ben and Carlos, who were off today. Since our waiter noted that we were past regulars he comped us with two desserts to share including a great cheesecake and tiramisu. We ended our lunches with coffee. Tea was also included. We all agreed we will continue to return here for lunch or dinner the next time we visit the area.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants. The food, service and ambiance never fails. I like that they don't rush us to leave.

Throw in the fact that the owner Ralph and his mom checked in on us that we were happy with our dinners made this a great over the top local place. Food: For appetizers I had the escargot. It was amazing. Not your standard escargot in a standard scalloped dish with a small dash of garlic and butter, but a bowl consisting of a wonderful broth of escargot, garlic, butter and accompanied with toasted baguette slices. Mains: My wife ordered the "Codfather"consisting of cod, shrimp and scallops. Let's just say I made sure to keep my arms and hands on my side of the table and not attempt to try a sample from her plate with the fear of losing a digit. I ordered the fish and chips. Hey! It's fried, can't go wrong as a non-fish eater going with this route. Nope. Beyond my expectations. My last best fish and chips was at the famous take away at the Borough Market in London. This version? Fresh Cod, well done fries, homemade tartar sauce and coleslaw, just saved me the airfare to the UK. We have all ready been back twice. It is our new fave.

I started with the oyster Rockefeller. I wanted charbroiled oysters so this was the closest. These were really delicious. Nice flavor. I then had the bronzino & mac n cheese. Plenty of lobster in the mac and cheese. Could do with a little more cheddar but really creamy. The portion size was also just right. The bronzino was ok but adding a little lemon juice took it to delicious. I was torn between the tiramisu or creme brulee but went with the tiramisu. Only thing this needed was a cup of coffee. This was my 1st time but will not be my last. The attentiveness was one of the best I've had. As I arrived i kept seeing people come in and be greeted like this was Cheers, and I can see how this would be that place. Added touch was that you get to ask for your car by text before you exit.

    SOD Thai Kitchen

    4.5 stars We had…read moretried several Thai restaurants in Bergen and Rockland county and had continually been disappointed. However, that changed with our discovery of SOD. First off, the staff was extremely nice, both on the phone while placing our order and during our seamless pickup. Though we took the food to-go, their dining room was certainly cozy and comfortable enough for dining in on another occasion. When we got home and unpacked the food, we saw that the portions were generous and that everything was well-packed. We started by sharing the unique, Handmade Thai Crepe Dumplings. The beautiful dark purple noodle wraps had been stuffed with peanuts and turnips, a spectacular flavor combination covering salty, nutty, and sweet profiles. I then had my Tom-Yum Soup, which had been served in a quart container that was about 2/3 full, so a bit more than a pint. The spicy, sour lemongrass broth was packed with mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, lemongrass, Kaffir lime leaves, and tender white meat chicken, which we had asked to be added. The soup had been prepared with a medium spice level that was ideal for the dish. However, the restaurant was not shy with their spices on the main courses! I went with my standard Pad Se-Ew with Chicken, for which I do not typically specify a heat level. However, the restaurant's menu mentioned that spice could be added between mild and extra hot. I asked for medium, but it was definitely more fiery than I had expected! However, the noodles were delicate and the Chinese broccoli was fresh and crisp. My mouth might have been a bit numb, but I could still tell that the dish was tasty! Everyone else loved their individual plates, though we all took note that we should be more careful with our requested spice levels going forward. In addition to our own meals, we shared an order of the Garlic Noodles with Chicken, since it was an unusual dish for a Thai restaurant. It contained sautéed, flat rice noodles with egg, bean sprouts, scallions, garlic, sesame oil, and tender chicken. A mild heat level was perfect for this, as the lack of fire allowed the robust sesame and garlic notes to make an impact. Each piece of chicken was lean, moist, and tender. SOD Thai really exceeded my expectations and was definitely a local gem that we would order from again!

I had never had steamed skate anywhere before so my acquaintance told me that I wouldn't like it because it's "pungent" but I'm so glad I got to try it because I LOVED IT.

The high ceilings and black color theme give it an elevated feel. And the staff is very nice and accommodating CONS: their air conditioning was broken when we went in the middle of summer (which I'm sure they'll eventually fix). I didn't mind because I love the heat but my acquaintance was sweating uncomfortably. Also, the food was good and some dishes were great but I wouldn't say it's the "best I ever had."
