    Pepperoni Pizza
    Jimmie P.

    I in the area and had a taste for pizza, why not. This place stood out. Rolled in with a large group. The staff was cool, pulling tables together so everyone could break bead. Now let's get to business, the food. To kick things off, wings (sweet chili and hot honey), Garlic knots and Calamari. The wings sweet chili for the win. The pizza both Meat lovers and Pepperoni were both amazing, full of flavors. The meat lovers was my favorite. Everyone was starving and ready to eat, but you can't rush GREAT food so I won't complain about the wait time. Overall it's a good spot and I would come back.

    We wanted to try a new pizza spot. Wahizza, from its original from Washington Heights, New York. It is a Dominican - Italian inspired food. We ordered the Margherita pizza and the Hawaiian pizza. Both personal pies. For our appetizer, Fried Calamari was our appetizer. We ordered the Orange soda from the Restaurant too. Fried Calamari, came with a sweet, chili sauce and marinara sauce. The calamari didn't taste as fresh - We were wondering could this be frozen before preparation? I love Margherita pizza. It was the first time I had pizza with sesame seeds on the crust. Sorta different, not sure how I feel about it. The pizza was too oily, more basil could be added, the sauce was not as strong as compareable as to other Margherita pizza. We tried this place, not enough to come back for another time. Some menu items are on a bit expensive. Wahizza is your local neighborhood place, comfy and clean. Service was attentive, parking available around Ridgefield park, all payments accepted.

    Chicken chimni pizza

    It wasn't until after we dined here that my husband and I learned that Wahizza Pizza had its shining moment in the social media spotlight for their unconventional offerings. Personally, I'm happy I was ignorant to the hype because I think it would have left me disappointed. Wahizza prides itself on fusion pies that incorporate ingredients and flavors familiar to a Dominican palate. Since we were clearly newbies, we asked for recommendations at the counter and ended up ordering the classic Wahizza pizza, which comes topped with chicken, cabbage, tomatoes, cilantro, corn, onions, and their chimi-sauce, which seemed to be some sort of a mayo-based sauce. See what I mean about unconventional? Never would I have thought to put cabbage and cilantro atop a pizza pie, but it was delicious. We loved the combination of flavors and felt decently light after polishing off an entire pie, maybe because we hadn't consumed the usual bread-sauce-cheese trio that we would've had at another pizzeria. My slight misgiving was in calling this a pizza. As a native Northeasterner, I have stereotypically strong opinions on what makes pizza good, and if I were craving a true blue pizza meal, I'm not sure the chimni pizza would've quite hit the spot. That said, the more traditional pies are offered here, and I'm looking forward to giving them a try in the future. Inside, the restaurant is homey and comfortable. Orders are placed at the counters, but we were pleasantly surprised to find that servers will regularly swing by your table to check in on you and ask if you need anything.

    Chimi Pizza

    Some of the best pizza I've ever had. The dough was perfect and fresh toppings. Highly recommend.

    We were looking for a place to eat in the area and stumbled upon Wahizza. The staff here and management are extremely friendly and welcoming! We wanted a pizza to share and it was absolutely delicious! I can't wait to come back to try out the other pies.

    Chimi Pizza was delicious!

    Just checked out Wahizza with a couple of friends. Ordered eight wings, three pizzas, and three desserts and it was the perfect amount of food. We received excellent recommendations from the friendly and helpful waitress. The restaurant was clean and modern, with cool decor. The chimi and oxtail pies were our favorites but the third was good as well. The wings were nice and crispy and they provided two different dipping sauces. The desserts were tasty. Guava cheesecake was our favorite.

    Love the specialty pizzas they tasteGREAT. I took a leap, and I am very scared to taste oxtail because I feel like it's a very sensitive thing that not everyone should be making however they nailed it.. Took everything to go.

    5 Garlic Knots
    Jordan C.

    When I lived in Washington Heights, I absolutely love getting the sandwiches from the Chimi trucks, now all this pizza has ground beef instead of shredded chicken it was just as good tasted like home to me! But they have so many gems there besides that yummy pizza you also have to try the oxtail wish the owner himself makes every single day. Oh my gosh, so tender so delicious. The server is there a super friendly, and let you know the pizzas going to take a few minutes to make, but came out very quickly nonetheless! All the decor is super adorable the feels of a pizza shop with a Dominican flare, you guys have to check it out!

    Margarita Pizza
    Shelby A.

    Came to Wahizza originally for the Yelp Elite event and was beyond impressed that I had to come back! No food is kept out like most pizza places. Everything is made fresh and to order and wow it makes such a difference. Their pizza is a nice thinner crust. I am obsessed with their margarita pie and garlic knots. So obsessed that I refuse to share my margarita and always order my own! So much flavor and freshness. The garlic knots are the perfect amount of crisp. They just hold in the heat so wait a little before digging in! Service is friendly and efficient. Unless you catch them at a busy time but even then I've never waited more than 20 minutes for my food.

    Chimi Pizza & Oxtail Pizza
    Norberto F.

    This is one of the best pizza place I have tried with all honesty. Visited here with the family as we noticed this spot is super trendy in social media. I have to say that the pizza here is A++. What an amazing flavors and presentation. The owner "junior" was extra attentive. The spot is small and gets crowed really quickly, was this is more than a pizza spot but an experience. Definitely family friendly. These guys take good pride on their craft. If you want to try pizza but with a Dominican twist, you must come here. The chimi pizza live up to its hype. Keep up the great work guys.

    First time trying this place and they have great vegan options, got the veggie one this time looking forward to try the chimi, staff were friendly and they had great eat in place very modern and welcoming interior

    I came with some friends last night. We had been seeing plenty of posts about this place. We were excited to try it out. Believe me when I say we were not disappointed! Food was flavorful. The Chimi pizza still has my mouth watering for more! Service was great. The owner was present when we dined in and he was very friendly and thanked us for stopping in. Look forward to checking out the other locations. Please check out my photos so you can try these pizzas

We went on a Wednesday night around 7PM and while there were a good amount of people dining we were able to get a table right away. We ordered the burrata to start and it was delicious. It was served over oranges and with walnuts which seemed like odd pairings to me but it just worked. I love burrata. It's always pricey, but I'm a sucker for it and will likely order it every time. We got the skirt steak, octopus, Pizza al Tartufo, and Diavolina pizza. Everything was fantastic. The skirt steak was cooked medium rare as ordered and it was served with some greens. It wasn't mind-blowing, just a good skirt steak. I would probably skip this on a return visit so that I could eat more pizza. The octopus was cooked perfectly as well. It wasn't tough and chewy and it had a nice char to it. It was a pretty large tentacle served with an arugula salad. The salad had a citrusy dressing on it which was refreshing. I really enjoyed the pizzas. We went with a white and a red pizza. THe white pizza was topped with fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, and black truffle oil. Everything went well together and the truffle flavor wasn't overpowering as it sometimes can be. The red pizza had hot sopressata, fresh mozzarella, and grana padano. The sopressata was actually a little spicy which was different from the white pizza. Both pizzas had a great crust with just the right amount of char. It was firm enough to hold up the sauces and toppings but had enough give in it so that it didn't have the texture of cardboard. Service was friendly. The place had a nice cozy feel to it.

    Review: Café Faubourg - Montclair…read more Café Faubourg is one of Montclair's true gems--an authentic French bistro that feels as if it were lifted straight from a quiet Parisian street and placed right in the heart of town. From the moment you step inside, the ambiance sets the tone: warm lighting, intimate tables, and that unmistakable bistro charm that makes every meal feel like a small escape. The food is consistently excellent, starting with their hummus, which is surprisingly standout for a French spot. Smooth, flavorful, and beautifully plated, it's the perfect way to begin the meal and pairs wonderfully with their fresh bread. The steak frites is a must-order and easily one of the best in the area. The steak is tender and cooked exactly to preference, richly seasoned without being heavy, and served alongside crisp, golden fries that are everything you want in a classic bistro dish. It's simple, authentic, and prepared with the kind of care that elevates a traditional favorite into something memorable. Service at Café Faubourg is warm and attentive without being intrusive, contributing to the relaxed elegance of the experience. Whether you're dropping in for a casual dinner or celebrating a special occasion, the staff makes you feel welcome and unrushed. For anyone looking for an authentic French bistro experience in Montclair--excellent food, inviting ambiance, and truly charming service--Café Faubourg delivers every time.

The inside has both a main dining hall and a greenhouse, which feels like basically sitting on a covered patio with well kept shrubbery and ambient lighting. It's a neat balance of modern and open while still feeling cozy. I think my favorite dish is the ramp fava bean toast -- the umami from the purée balanced with the crunch of the toast and the brightness from the pickled ramps. I'd also recommend the steak two ways -- both cuts cooked perfectly to medium rare -- and the lobster linguine was delicately fragrant, buttery, and slightly acidic all at once. The chips and eggplant dip (kind of like hummus consistency) was kind of a fun, shareable starter too. I will say that I wasn't impressed with the ceviche or branzino our waiter recommended it. The branzino particularly came out a bit dry, and more of the tomato-olive-caper side or dressing would've helped. And while our waiter answered our questions, service felt a little more on the less attentive side.
