Let me tell you as first off that the Zalim Burger is absolutely delcious 8.5/10. I think this…read moreburger is one of best I've had in a while and would go just for this. The other option i got was butter chicken it was okay probably a 7.2/10 wasn't anything over the top, im indian so I've had a lot of butter chicken in my life and I know when it stands out. The fries are frozen fries which aren't anything unique like a 5/10 they should get some curly fries or waffle fries just a thought for them to stand out more. The people and atmosphere are great so for customer service and everything overall is top notch. Just a few thoughts tho from my experience.

Wow. They really do deliver "ruthless" flavor combo as their in-store mural would suggest. My wife…read moreordered the Nashville chicken sandwich with fries and I did the same in rice platter version and they were legit! 1. ATMOSPHERE (5/5) - Clean, no non-sense vibe that leans utilitarian but hey, you're here for quick bite! 2. FOOD (5/5) - Chicken was juicy, well-seasoned (not too salty!) with right amount of heat (I ordered medium spicy and taste was bolder and better vs. wife's mild which felt a bit bland) and their pickle gave a nice counterbalance. Fries were slightly "old" but full of potato flavor with that peanut oil, and the rice, the RICE in my bowl... together with the mild coleslaw (not too sweet, heavy-sauced, or acidic) was just... making symphony in my mouth. It was seriously delicious... rice... like what?! It had like that subtle halal flavor, gentle bite, and carried sauce well. So while I thought I'd never say this, I enjoyed the rice platter version of the Nashville hot chicken over the sandwich version. Sandwich version was ever so slightly dry in comparison as well. 3. SERVICE (4/5) - Only docking point because it took a bit long (15 min) for this type of food, but my man at the counter was very nice and hooked me up with free soda. He also mentioned royalty program which I misheard as telling me to pick any beverage (wife told me later), which was a nice touch. (Sorry, I wasn't trying to be rude!) All in all with leftover to spare for next lunch, this was a surprisingly great meal. I'll definitely be back to try the smashed burgers! I never knew they were here though the guy told me they've been here for a few years at least... Well, now I know! Show Zalim some love ya'll and enjoy some GREAT Nashville hot chicken RICE BOWL and sando!

I review a lot of burger joints and I have to say that Marty's still stands at number 1 when people…read moreask me to recommend them a burger spot. Wide array of burger selection, from classic single & double burgers, to ones with more variety such as my go to, the BBQ that has frizzled onions, jalapeños, smoked bacon, and bbq sauce on it. Several options for fries as well from old bay seasoning to garlic herb and even poutine! And if you're not feeling a burger they have chicken sandwiches and tenders on deck. Pretty short wait time once you order. It's more of a takeout spot but if you want to eat inside you get an old school burger joint feel.

Marty's understood the assignment…read more The hand-cut fries came out hot, crispy, and packed with flavor. They instantly reminded me of Five Guys fries, which is about as good a compliment as I can give. 8.5/10. The double cheeseburger was a two-handed commitment in the best way possible. Thick, juicy, and loaded with flavor. The sweet pickles added a little surprise that worked way better than expected, and the soft seeded bun held everything together like a true MVP. 8.7/10. No gimmicks, no nonsense , just a really good burger.

I had lunch at Jaffar's Burgers last week. It was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time…read more Golden Cheeseburger is a must-try! It was one of those days when I was thinking, "You know, I need a break. I'm stepping out for lunch." I wasn't sure where to go, but I knew I wanted something comforting. Then I remembered passing by their red and white font sign on 17, so I started heading that way in my car. I pulled into one of the parking spaces in front and went inside. There were a few customers there when I walked in. After I ordered a Golden Single Cheeseburger, fries, and a fountain drink, I grabbed a seat facing the windows. That first bite - so good! It's a classic onion burger done really, really well. Again, a must-try. You can taste fresh, quality ingredients. Oh, also, their fountain drinks are cane-sugar sweetened - nothing artificial. This burger joint is a gem.

They have a very small menu of Oklahoma style cheeseburger (with only grilled onions) and the standard burger with lettuce, onions, and tomato. Service was friendly and the food was ok. The burger comes with a huge potato bun which I think is too big for the burger. Their golden (Oklahoma style) burger was too heavy/greasy for me. There is plenty of grilled onions but I need fresh vegetables to balance the grease. The fries were ok.

I was happy to hear that this NYC favorite was coming to NJ. Although the surrounding local area…read morealready has great smash burger options, this is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. I absolutely love the simplicity of the menu: Single, double, or jalapeño burgers; fries regular or loaded. Having a select few options only opens the door to delivering high quality, consistently & so far they've nailed it every time I've swung by. Ordering online is a breeze and the orders come out quick and fresh! (last night I ordered when I was 5 minutes away & it was already ready when I arrived). This place serves classic smashburgers that are juicy and flavorful and fries that are crispy and perfectly salted. The space also has minimalism interiors with white tile walls that are reminiscent of an old school burger joint. I would say the one thing this place may have over the other burger spots is that it's open until midnight! So go ahead and add it to your late nite munchies list.

7th Street Burger is a no-frills spot. The menu is super limited but the few things that they…read moredeliver on the few things that they do do. Service is friendly and quick. The place is very bare bones but I guess that's part of their brand. I got a double cheeseburger and crispy fries. The burger is solid and comes with house sauce, pickles, cheese, and onions. They're smash burgers and the edges of each patty gets nice and crunchy since they're smashed so thinly. Good quality meat. Pretty simple toppings. Nothing groundbreaking, just a very solid burger. The same goes for the fries. They're standard, crispy fries (as advertised). I enjoyed my meal and will likely return.

Nick's Sandwich Shop (Located in the Mid-Town Center Strip…read moreMall) 505 Saddle River Rd. Saddle Brook, NJ 07663 Choripan Special: Half Sausage Sandwich Homemade Chips This special deal includes a half sausage sandwich with freshly cut french fries (the owner refers to this side as "chips"). This sausage sandwich is a simple sandwich consisting of protein, bread, and a signature sauce. While this may seem dull, it's actually quite tasty. The Argentinian sausage was served on a soft seeded roll. The chimichurri spread was freshly made in house and undoubtedly the best feature of the sandwich. The fries were hot, crispy and seasoned perfectly. A side of ketchup was included, but they were so flavorful they could have been eaten without any dipping sauces. There is a decent amount of seating in the dining area. Because the ship is located inside a strip mall, there are multiple parking spaces behind the stores. Carlos was very attentive and an outstanding server. He welcomed me into the restaurant and made me feel right at home. #nickssandwichshop #saddlebrooknj #choripanspecial

I liked the skirt steak sandwich the best, it's not cheap but the ingredients are high quality so it's worth it as a treat.

Jackson Hole came up in a diner list one day and its retro decor, neon sign and an Old Skool camper trailer parked out front made this a must visit location for me. My GF and I recently headed out for the 30ish minute drive to check this place out. I want to say ahead of time that my 4 stars is me feeling generous. This is "really" a 3.5 star review, but before I get into that let's talk about what's awesome. Out of all the diners I have visited in my life, this is one of my favorite in terms of decor and layout. The interior features a counter where you can sit and eat (classic). Booths with coat hooks built in line the diner and each one has a jukebox! The music is a mixture of classic and contemporary music. Want to hear Elvis followed by Lady Gaga? You can do that! The decor is filled with retro items including a display case featuring an old camera and toy diners from the past. It is a total nostalgia trip and I loved it. When you walk in there's even a pay phone encased in glass. The trailer outside is awesome, featuring a set up inside that includes a dinner setting and retro 50's/60's era furniture. The host was very friendly and had us sit anywhere so we chose a booth towards the back. I noticed a lady sitting alone in the booth behind ours (more on that in a bit). We eagerly ordered and started putting quarters into the jukebox and selected a bunch of retro music to help keep the mood nostalgic. Our waitress came by and took our order. We would later learn this is partly where some of our issues began. My GF had ordered her omelet to have egg whites, but the waitress didn't write it down so she wound up getting a regular egg omelet (she still ate it and it was okay). I ordered the buffalo wings and a turkey burger. The way the menu is laid out, I expected it to come with tomato, lettuce and fries - but for some reason they were not included and I had to ask for them after the fact. Here's the other issue, our waitress never came back to check on us. I literally watched her sitting at the counter bouncing a ball to distract herself while I was waving for someone to get me some water. I'm not saying she needed to keep a laser sharp eye on us, but coming over *once* during our meal would have been nice. For the record, there were only three other booths with customers. They were hardly overwhelmed. Had it not been for a nice waiter who was talking to the lady behind us, we wouldn't have gotten any service at all. He was great. The food was "okay" to "very good". The buffalo wings? They were super tiny and not crispy at all. The sauce was okay though. The burger was like the size of my fist so I was very impressed. The swiss cheese I requested was nicely melted on the turkey and the mushrooms in my burger were beautifully cooked. The burger was the highlight of my meal. I did eventually get fries with it but the serving was so anemic I was shocked. I think there were maybe about 10 steak fries in the order. They were good, but it was the saddest fry order I've ever seen size-wise. I tell myself that since this visit was late on a Sunday perhaps we were not gettin the "A-Team" of this diner. The nostalgic trappings are enough to bring me back again, but next time I'll try a slightly busier time in hopes of getting better service.

Ted's North Delicatessen 314 Spring Valley Rd…read more Paramus, NJ 07652 The Godfather French Fries This locally owned deli is very high profile and serves quality food. These are a couple of the popular menu items I explored: The Godfather: This sandwich was packed with thinly sliced roast beef and smothered in hot gravy and melted mozzarella cheese. It may appear small in size, but it was very filling. The appearance of the left sandwich looks off due to the gravy oozing out of the hero. Do not let that deceive you because this sandwich is phenomenal! French Fries: These fries practically eat like a meal. They are piled high and deep inside a Chinese container box. The serving quantity was more than plentiful. The crinkle cuts are generously sprinkled with Ted's North secret signature seasoning. They are so tasty you won't need any dipping sauces to supplement the frites. I enjoy the seasoning so much that I wish I could purchase it separately, but it's not for sale. Due to its popularity, there is usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly. There is no indoor or outdoor seating, but there are benches and tables nearby at Van Saun Park. If you decide to dine here, Ted's North is open Monday through Saturday, so please plan accordingly. #tedsnorth #tedsnorthdelicatessen #tedsnorthdeli #thegodfather #frenchfries
