The place is bright and clean. I ended up getting the 4 Corner ($12.95) which consists of grilled chicken, PROSCIUTTO, BOAR'S HEAD IMPORTED HAM, FRESH MOZZARELLA AND ROASTED RED PEPPERS ON A LONG ROLL. It was good, just felt like there was a lack of chicken compared to the pics I have seen. I also got to try the cheesesteak ($12.95) which was great. The cheese was cooked and blended into the beef, green peppers and onions. The cheesesteak saved my lunch. Solid spot for lunch and I would recommend especially if you want cheesesteak. * Parking on premise * Street parking available * Takeout only inside

I was going there with the intent of getting a meatball sandwich but then noticed that they've added a Buffalo Chicken sandwich to their menu and I couldn't resist. Chicken was fresh as always. Just a little bit of lettuce and ranch on it. Actually the perfect ratio. Heat factor was done right. Now too spicy but enough to keep the lips tingling afterwards. Price is slightly higher than venues comparable to this establishment. Food and service is very good but the price is just a little bit on the elevated side.

I am an indian with cornrows with one too many chromosones. For anyone wondering what the best spot for bagels are in bergen county, West side is where it is at. The workers never fail to put a white smile on my face with their cream cheese. I do have my suspicions about where that cream cheese comes from. I always hear the waiter Caesar making loud groaning noises and the cream cheese can come out very liquidly. I saw a film crew entering through the back of west side and they were all shirtless, black, and over 6'5 with 8 packs. I then proceeded to hear Caesar screaming "Yes give me that cream cheese sandwhich" read more

It was a cold brisky afternoon on a Sunday and my father just got arrested for stealing a watermelon to support me and my 19 adopted brothers and sisters. We didn't know what to do so we asked Janquantanton D for some help since we saw his recent review. He told us the best strategies on how to stay in the West side bathroom while the customers and waiters film a "movie" every night at 3:30 am. It was weird since we would always hear moaning and groaning from Juan el Loco (make sure to look him up) the manager. Anyways, it was a great experience staying there and I 100% recommend it! read more

Stopped in for a bagel with cream cheese and a side of home fries. Bagel was as expected. Large and lots of cream cheese. You won't go hungry eating this. Word of warning...I'm a bit of a home fries connoisseur. Home fries were disappointing. They were warm (not hot) and was probably 1/2 of a potato. Nothing else in it. Definitely not getting this ever again, especially for $4. Stick with sandwiches and bagels here.

I went in to the establishment for elite bagels 15 minutes before they closed a couple of weeks ago. The guy behind the counter said I can give you half a dozen bagels for five dollars. I looked him square in the eye and said previously they would just stuff a bag full of bagels and say have a nice day. I wasn't looking for freebies, just what I ordered. He laughed like I was getting a deal. Taking advantage of people for pennies is shameful. I never go in there looking for anything free, sometimes they would just throw a few more in the bag.
