    Second time here and possibly the last...maybe because it was Mother's Day and it was busier than usual but my experience this time around was nothing like the first. The service was ok this time around. I originally ordered the rancher's hash which over easy eggs instead of sunny side since I'm expecting and want to make sure to eat foods that are well cooked instead of under, but it came with sunny side anyway. The avocado looked like it was going bad and still had the skin on it...I've never seen an avocado served like that in a restaurant before...almost bad and with the skin still on it. I also wasn't aware it would have steak slices as it doesn't specify that in the description of the rancher's hash so I assumed it'd be crumbled ground beef...either way, the bowl itself didn't look as appetizing as it sounded in the description. I opted to switch to the grass fed burger I had my first visit here and it was ok, first time was definitely better than this time around and the air fried fries were ok, most of them underneath the initial picture look and tasted overcooked which was another disappointment. I enjoyed with my lavender matcha, Margherita sourdough pizza (YUM!) and the brussel sprouts for our starters. This visit was certainly disappointing on Mother's Day. I really want to recommend and keep coming back for the fact that it's health consciousness menu but don't want to pay for 'just ok' food either...nor recommend a place that's just ok.

    The Garden State is known for its diverse culinary scene, offering a wide range of dining options to cater to every palate and dietary preference. For health-conscious individuals, finding an establishment that offers delicious and nutritious meals can be a rewarding experience. Located at the Riverside Mall in Hackensack, True Food Kitchen is a chef-driven culinary experience. Each of their kitchens has an executive chef at its helm, crafting wholesome, intentionally sourced ingredients into flavorful creations open for brunch, lunch, and dinner. The reservation was easily made through OpenTable. Upon entering as first-timers last night, my partner, our friends, and I were greeted by the host and stepped into a spacious room over 6,000 sq. feet nicely filled with patrons, a bright and airy room full of greenery with a welcoming vibe. Our table was ready by the window. Outdoor dining is available, weather permitting, with a massive patio with bright yellow umbrellas. Their clearly labelled seasonally rotating menu has a heavy focus on healthy eating, featuring burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, salads, and entrees with vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-friendly options.  They have a full bar with wine and beer selections, plus specialty craft cocktails. As a starter, we decided on the Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Edamame Dumplings to share. For our mail meal, we opted for Grilled Salmon, All-American Burger, Spaghetti Squash Casserole, Chicken Parmesan and a side of Honey Roasted Carrots. We washed them down with Pomegranate Spritzer with Tito Vodka, Stella Artois, Rose Sangria, and Grapefruit Martini. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor, using the best ingredients. One can taste how light and fresh each dish was. The meal felt filling without feeling overly stuffed. The staff was friendly and attentive. Our server, Jorge, was extremely professional and offered us some great recommendations. We had an amazing dining experience, and it stands out as one of the rare locales suitable for family gatherings, friend hangouts, or romantic dates.

    Burger with cheesy smashed potatoes
    Diana A.

    Today I had a day off from work and ordered delivery from True Food Kitchen. It was my first time ordering here. I ordered a burger with perfectly cooked meat. It came with arugula, a caramelized onion and mushroom topping on a seeded bun; side: This time, I chose mashed potatoes with cheese. Let me tell you about my experience: The meat was juicy and delicious, the bun was soft, fresh and very interesting. The combination of everything in the burger was exquisite. The portion was just right for me. I didn't leave a single bite... I'm a huge fan of mashed potatoes, and these were incredibly tasty. I give this place a 10 out of 10. I hope to visit them in person very soon. Thank you so much to the whole team. Keep up the excellent work. Congratulations and blessings!!!

    Grass-Fed Burger with Air-Fryer Fries

    The service and dishes at TFK have been consistently good at their locations. The same holds true for the Hackensack, NJ location. I love that they offer delicious food with high-quality and clean ingredients! Surprisingly, I went with my family on a Sunday afternoon for lunch with an Open Table reservation and it wasn't crowded at all. We ordered the following: APPETIZERS Guacamole Edemame Dumplings ENTREES 3 x Grilled Sustainable Salmon Grass-Fed Burger with Air-Fryer fries BEVERAGES Iced Green Tea (not shown) Hot Green Tea Everything was delicious, as usual... and Grilled Sustainable Salmon is my favorite dish at TFK. We were able to request less salt on my father's salmon dish without a problem. TFK is very good at accommodating people with dietary restrictions. TIP: When you order the Air-Fryer Fries, make sure to eat them right away while hot. If you wait, they will get soft and will lose its crispness.

    We had a wonderful dining experience at True Food Kitchen. We started with the guacamole, which was fresh and delicious. For our meals we had the Chinese Chicken Salad and the Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl with chicken--both were full of flavor and absolutely delicious. We ended with the flourless chocolate cake for dessert, which was the perfect sweet ending. Our server, Adriel, was fantastic. He knew the menu really well and gave excellent suggestions that helped make our meal even better. He was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience truly enjoyable. Highly recommend!

    Kids Teriyaki Bowl
    Chris E.

    THE GOOD ---------------- + Solid food that was better than our 1st experience here years ago. ++++ Edamame Dumplings - This shareable starter came with only 5 pieces. Would have definitely appreciated if it were 6 or 8. They were a bit flimsy and fell apart quite easily, but truffle oil gave it good flavor. ++++ Roasted Brussels Sprouts - Loved the mix of various ingredients in the starter - roasted wild mushrooms, sliced red peppers and the ginger soy glaze on everything. Good portion for a starter. ++++ Spinach and Wild Mushroom Pizza - Lots of spinach, roasted wild mushrooms and a dollop of lemon almond ricotta on each little slice. Portion was of a personal pizza and it was cut into 8 mini slices, but it was a decent pizza. Better than I anticipated it would be. ++++ Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl with Shrimp - Big portion and quite tasty. The quinoa brown rice blend was seasoned and flavorful. A lot of different ingredients mixed in too, like diced up broccoli, bok choy, crunchy snap peas, pickled shiitake and rainbow carrots. ++++ Kids Cheese Pizza - Surprisingly was the same size as the Spinach and Wild Mushroom Pizza! Two toddlers can definitely share this, but if you have a bigger kid then it's perfect for one. It was a very simple pizza with tomato sauce on it, but very easy to consume considering its simplicity. ++++ Kids Teriyaki Bowl - Arrived in a medium size bowl, but was essentially the kid-size version of the Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl. Had the same ingredients and same delicious flavor. ++++ Flourless Chocolate Cake - Delicious! A scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream was placed on top of the cake, but this was the perfect ending to our meal. + Great service by the staff. ++++ Food came out promptly and our water was refilled when needed. Our kid dropped their fork and napkin and an employee IMMEDIATELY came by to replace it! ++++ All of the employees were very friendly. + Fantastic interior space ++++ Huge restaurant with plenty of tables and seats for group and solo diners ++++ Decor is modern and clean ++++ Kitchen is open for all to see and huge! + Bathrooms include a family room + Plenty of parking at the Riverside mall where this restaurant is located. + Allows for online reservations. + Directly connected to the high-end Riverside Mall, so you can take a stroll inside after your meal. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Nada. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Despite being fairly busy on a January Friday evening, there were still PLENTY of tables and seats available due to the sheer size of the restaurant.

    - Parking was difficult to find on a Friday evening in the shared Shops at Riverside mall lot--competing with other diners and navigating around piles of leftover snow from the blizzard a week earlier - The restaurant is easily accessible both from the outside and directly from within the mall - Modern, open, spacious, and clean with casual, chill vibes; nice views of the open kitchen and chefs at work - Impeccable service with very attentive staff; friendly, efficient service - Food was mostly enjoyable: the edamame dumplings had good flavor but a mushy overall texture; roasted Brussels sprouts were very tasty and nicely elevated with a squeeze of lime; the teriyaki quinoa bowl with the shrimp upgrade was flavorful and came with eight plump shrimp--quinoa was moist and well-seasoned; the spinach and wild mushroom pizza was thin and nicely cooked with plenty of toppings for a relatively small pie, though it was served warm rather than piping hot; kids enjoyed both the kid's cheese pizza with savory tomato sauce and the kid's chicken teriyaki bowl, though the chicken was slightly dry; the flourless chocolate cake was rich and decadent, but the portion was quite small - Major plus having a separate family restroom

    From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in good hands, with Kristen at the helm of the ship keeping everything running smoothly. Our server Anthony, was attentive, and knowledgeable, immediately putting us at ease especially when it came to our dietary restrictions and allergies. He took the time to listen, explain options, and ensure everything was handled correctly, which made the experience feel both comfortable, personalized and seamless. It was clear that Anthony is well trained and supported, ensuring service to be smooth and consistent throughout our visit. He explemfied what you look for in a dining experience. The food came out perfect with all of our modifications and it is always an inviting and relaxing environment. As someone who runs businesses and leads people, what stands out most is Kristen's consummate professionalism and leadership. She is present, observant, and intentional. While Anthony delivered personalized, thoughtful outstanding service without ever being intrusive. You can feel the trust and confidence she helps instill in the staff, and it translates directly into a positive experience for guests. The coordination between Anthony's attentive, and tailored service with Kristen's steady leadership shows strong operational standards. This is the kind of management and level of service and partnership that should be exemplified across all restaurants. When a server puts patrons first in the way Anthony did shows with the combination of managers and staff working in lock step, elevates the entire restaurant and leaves a lasting, positive impression!

    Anthony was a delight and made the whole dining experience so memorable. The food as well as his recommendations were amazing! I will definitely be coming back here soon! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. See you soon!

    Met a friend for lunch. We had tasty, filling. fresh dishes for lunch. Perfect place for a healthy option. I was surprised by the dumplings because they were a bit runny and flat, but they had a delicious taste. The hummus and pita were delish! Our server was not very knowledgeable nor attentive, but I think she just lacked some training. Perfect space with beautiful ambience, located right within Riverside Square Mall. Can't go wrong with munching and shopping.

    So I need to make a reservation?

    Actually... really depends on the time and day. If you're looking to dine at a peak diner or during busy lunch time then... yes. It doesn't hurt to do so.

    What time does lunch service start on weekends?

    Brunch is from opening 11-3pm, whereas Lunch/Dinner menu is available all day 11-10pm Saturday/Friday and 9 pm Sunday

I've heard comparisons between Marty's patties and those of Five Guys, and I can see why. They're fresh rather than frozen, and they're thin enough to approximate a smashed burger with those occasional bits of char while still maintaining enough heft that you can taste the beef. Their build-your-own burger menus are also similar, with plenty of free toppings to choose from. But I would argue that Marty's offers a fuller range of toppings from diverse cheese options to more premium ones like fried eggs, bacon, and avocado. I tried two of their signature burgers, and while the Swiss mushroom dijon was a hit with my husband (he pointed out the visible mustard seeds in the dijon sauce), the bacon avocado was the clear winner in my book. It not only had bacon that was texturally perfect (crispy and densely packed atop the patty), but also picture-ready slices of avocado. For that to come out of a fast food restaurant kitchen within a matter of minutes? Color me impressed. The banana pudding is dynamite. I'm usually neither a fan of banana nor puddings because those things combined just sound like mush. But here, the pudding is more of a whipped, airy texture, and I believe it when the lid says 'made fresh' because there were chunks of banana nestled in every bite. I admit it might not be much to look at, but I was hooked after a single spoonful (I'm actually greedily scraping the bottom of the container as I type this review). The restaurant has a diminutive dining space (I counted four two-tops at most), but it feels super cozy and casual. I took my food to go and found nothing had deteriorated - in flavor, temperature, or texture - during my drive home because everything is well packaged. There's paid street parking available, but this area of Hackensack is pretty dense so you might have to circle around for a bit before finding a spot.

I tried the Double Cheeseburger, Mushroom Burger, Truffle Parmesan fries, and Poutine. Everything was great. The patties on the burgers were cooked perfectly and were flavorful. Everything in the burgers added something and I never felt like they were doing too much. The fries were nice and I enjoyed them both but I think I liked the Truffle Parmesan more--I'm a sucker for all things truffle. The poutine was surprisingly good too though. I wish the gravy were a little thicker but it was hot enough that it caused the cheese curds to get nice and melty. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other offerings.

She was very attentive and made our meal pleasant and comfortable. I started with a Blood Orange Margarita (Calirosa 'Rosa Blanca' Tequila, orange liqueur, fresh sour, blood orange). This drink was VERY GOOD. The hint of blood orange was the perfect amount of sweetness and I was content with my selection. The appetizer was the Slow-Roasted Meatballs (porcini-dusted veal, pork, grass-fed beef, tomato-basil sauce, brick-oven bread). Each meatball was tender, flavorful, well seasoned, and the sauce was sufficient to accompany every forkful of the delicious starter. The entrees were: Caramelized Sea Scallops (broccolini, mascarpone risotto). Next was the Seasonal Brick-Oven Gnocchi (roasted mushrooms, truffle oil, roasted tomatoes, Marsala and provolone sauce, green onions). The final entree was the Mediterranean Wood-Grilled Chicken Salad (arugula, toybox tomatoes, kalamata olives, red onions, chickpeas, quinoa, feta, lemon dijon vinaigrette). For dessert, Seasons 52 graciously offered a free dessert for my birthday. Another nice touch that places Seasons 52 on a pedestal. I chose the Key Lime Pie Mini (graham cracker crust, whipped cream). The mini dessert was deliciously sweet, the graham crust provided an appreciated different texture, and I highly recommend these mini selections.

    A new hidden gem sake bar "Zen Sake Bar" has opened recently in this space. The renovated interior…read moreis warm and comfortable with bar and sofa seating. There is a good selection of premium sakes, Japanese whiskies and craft beers, and a small menu of well-executed Japanese dishes. This is a cozy and authentic spot for a date or if you want to have sophisticated drinks. There are no cocktails per se but they do make a good highball using premium whiskey. I recommend checking this place out soon before word spreads.

    I was impressed by the look and the feel inside Zen Den, a small-ish (in the cozy sense) bar and…read moredancing area with a nice lounge in the back, DJ playing a nice mix of Top 40 and a good amount of Latin music. Drinks were reasonably priced but the whole experience falls apart at the bar. I went here on a Thursday night, and was floored by how terrible the bartenders were. There were two of them working, and I would say the place was just minorly crowded. It literally took about 10-15 minutes for the bartender to even ask me what I wanted (A beer and a simple mixed drink). He then proceeded to walk away inbetween each step of service... giving me the beer, putting ice in my glass, pouring my liquor, and then the mixer. Then when he was done, I waited a bit longer for him to allow me to pay. I was also surrounded by a group of others who were just standing around trying to close out their tabs (a process which involves the bartender giving the card to their manager who takes it back into the kitchen to run the card... which I'm sorry but is completely inefficient and takes too long and just looks shady). I left after my second drink because I could have fermented the vodka myself before getting served a third time. It's a shame because the space is well done and the music was, in my opinion, really good.

    Our crew of friends and family decided to host a holiday dinner party here and it was absolutely…read moreawesome. The location is amazing and chic from the moment you walk in. Usually BYOB spots struggle to create the right ambiance, but this place has something special going on. We may have had a bit too much fun because we literally closed the place down with the staff. The food was outstanding. I highly recommend ordering a few appetizers and sharing them at the table because that is what we did and everything was deliciously decadent. The burrata was packed with flavor and the basil foam was impressive. The octopus with potatoes hit perfectly. I already know I need to go back for the crab empanadas and the short rib croquettes soon. For our mains, my wife and I shared the short rib yucca gnocchi and the lobster and ricotta ravioli. Amazingly tasty across the board. This place delivered from start to finish and we will definitely be returning.

    Went in hopes of a good experience but left underwhelmed by it all. Apart from the table seating…read morethe entire experience wasn't the best. We were left ignored for over 20 minutes after seating. Finally when the waiter arrived for a drink order we had asked for a coffee to start. That didn't arrive until almost another 25 minutes and were told the bar area was busy. The food itself wasn't amazing or memorable. Ordered the cauliflower app- the sauce was too watery and didn't coat or stick to the cauliflower. If it was thickened it would glaze the cauliflower and you could actually appreciate how good it was and the dish would be so much better. For the mains we ordered the salmon burger and lemon ricotta pancakes. Both were ok but nothing amazing. The worst part was the speakers playing a happy birthday song that was extremely loud that even 2 other tables looked confused and disturbed by it. It played for well over a few minutes. I can appreciate a party being celebrated but not at the expense of the patrons in the restaurant. Also just a heads up- they add a 2.5% service charge to the bill. Only noticed this because the table seated next to us shared this and were upset by it.

Staff is quick to attend and very kind to take accommodations and answer questions. The rolls were good, pretty close to shrimp honestly. The peanut plate was delicious. There was a sweet and savory taste to the meal, and everything was just so good. Everything on the plate mixed very well with each other and every bite was a delight. The beef looking plate was just as good in its own way. The chicken drumsticks are A FAVORITE!! Wow those are so delicious and crispy. The tea is always a delight to drink with the meals. Can't remember the other two meals, but they were all good. My party split them all four ways to try everything and it was delightful. I don't feel icky after eating so much, and the portions are huge. Waiter was very patient with my grandmother who 1) doesn't speak english 2) is diabetic so we had to find something safe for her to eat. 110% recommend this place to anyone. It's vegetarian/vegan only, but honestly the food was better than meals I've had with meat. Food felt good to eat, i didn't feel sick or overly full and heavy from it all. Pricing isn't so bad, considering the quality and quantity is very high.

I couldn't believe it wasn't meat and am very thankful to be able to get such a delicious, satisfying meal without plastic or animal products at a great price. The service was great. They brought us complimentary tea and water. The staff was patient and attentive while we decided what we wanted. The appetizer and meal came out quickly. The prices are very reasonable and even more so during lunch hours. They also have a great selection of deserts. I asked for them to wrap up our leftovers without plastic and they were able to accommodate us. I can't wait to go back and try something else on the menu. This is how you have a sustainable business. Thank you.
