The fried chicken with different sauces is fantastic. And the Mexican street corn is a must have. The staff is super friendly and they always have K-pop music videos playing in the corner. Who doesn't love that? Highly recommend!

What a concept - Taqueria = Taco Korea!…read more Clean, well lit, open environment, offering plenty of seating and some fun selfie backgrounds. The service was respectful and kind. We ordered tacos (of course). Nick ordered the bulgogi tacos and I had a tofu taco and a bistec taco. Everything we had was exceptional. They also provide an amazing green salsa, but to be honest the tacos really don't need it, they have so much flavor! We are so glad we gave this place a try and recommend you do too!

I hate when I forget my lunch and the only other person who needs to go get something a) has to…read moredrive and b) hates most places I would want to go...so we end up at places like Wendy's. I also don't review a ton of fast food places, but this experience requires it... I generally like Wendy's MUCH more that McDonald's or BK (I, in fact, refuse to eat at Burger King anymore) so I can usually live with it. However, I won't be "living with it" at this location any more. How can I keep this simple? Got to the place and it was empty so we stepped right up to order. Unfortunately, the woman taking our orders understood very little English so the manager was there to translate. Anyway, we placed our orders and waited...and waited...and waited-just brutally slow for a fast food place. Orders come up one at a time and my one co-worker didn't get his drink...that took another 2 minutes-seriously??? At least they got the food portion of the orders correct. Get our food back to the office and I discover that the baked potatoes they USED to serve, which were long, full-sized, and filled the container have become smaller than a baseball-and the cheese they put on didn't cut it. The bacon bits they used to put on the potato also used to be plentiful, but this one looked like they had hand-crumbled a single slice. We all also discovered that the Wendy's fries that we all like very much were a soggy pile of cold potatoes. I can't be wasting my time, calories, and money in a place like this again. The only reason for the second star is that the manager was pleasant and the place was very clean. Should really be 1 1/2 stars at best.

There are many platter spots in the world but for years I've contemplated a return to the Fair Lawn branch. This one has similar cuisine and more space.

NOT real halal food. just chain food. much better halal options out there. Typical fast food joint…read more I wouldn't recommend and probably wouldn't come back either. Update: Wanted to clarify here, apologies to the store-- I did not hold any doubts on it being halal. Better verbiage would be that I think that this is as far from capturing authentic mediterranean flavors as can be. A very americanized take on mediterranean food if you will. I will add that cleanliness and staff were not an issue and the establishment has plenty of seating. Rated 3 stars purely because i wasn't a fan of the food and my opinion is that it cannot compete with other halal mediterranean spots in the area

Very first visit was right before a Red Bulls match and every single food establishment in the area…read morewas slammed. We opted for 5 Guys and it was absolutely crushed but the platoon of workers behind the counter somehow kept the ship from sinking and all things considered: it was a 5-star visit. About a year later - now right before a Gotham FC match and this time 5 Guys was a ghost town (they seemed more busy with take-out/delivery orders). The guy working the main register and taking orders looked seconds from drifting off for a nap (I'm guessing that melatonin gummy kicked in?!) and sure enough... items were missing and the food wasn't up to snuff for what you expect from a 5 Guys. Unfortunately this time: it was a 2-star visit. Generally we're big fans of 5 Guys (even if their French fries are almost always a disappointment... no matter how many extra they sneak into your bag as a way to woo you!) and I'm hoping the most recent (and disappointing) visit was a fluke. When in the area... The Vanguard - too stuffy and hip TaKorea BBQ - too busy (or closed) Ah'Pizz - hit or miss Joia Restaurant - always forget about them since they're past the arena itself 5 Guys - looks like we're stuck with each other, huh?

Since we were dining in, we chose to sit next to the window, which is actually pretty picturesque. The ambience feels warm like a cozy diner vibe. Their food was delicious! We ended up getting the dumpling soup, k pop chicken, and kimchi pancake! I was happy about the portion sizes, and I was delightfully surprised that the "small" kimchi pancake is actually so filling! The dumpling soup was so comforting, especially with the cold weather, and there were tiny rice cakes in there too. The k pop chicken was crunchy, and it came with a side of slaw which was also very fresh and crisp. Overall, I love this place. I've been here a couple times in the past for their bibimbap, and I've never been disappointed! Definitely will be back!

Place gets packed despite the many tables. Service was amazing, food was great (slightly higher prices than others, but the quality execution and quantity balanced it out). We had cornbread (very good), fries (was fine), chicken parm with pasta (we asked for vodka sauce which they accommodated for small charge), fried chicken (must have), churrasco steak breakfast and turkey club. No false notes that we could tell. Some standouts were mashed potatoes (really good), cornbread (toasted and slight sweet, with strawberry butter which was wild), whole wheat bread toasted (it was good I tell you) and fried chicken (it will haunt me in my hungry moments). Didn't think a diner would impact me as much, but they over delivered. Go, but make a reservation unless you want to wait.

The rice was cooked - chicken wasn't tough, tomato & corn salsa has good flavors... sadly the guac was kind of bland... still a good bowl.

Also, the beans were on the bottom and nearly leaking through the bowl. Would I order again? Probably because of the prices compared to the spots inside Gateway.

It's super close to Prudential so you can have a quick bite before heading to an event. Parking is none existent so good luck if you drive in, however it's a close walk from Pru.
