Same location for 30 years--recently re-opened after a kitchen fire.
Reviewed By Ron G
Located across from a small town park in this charming Bergen County town, the Iron Horse is near the railroad station, thus it's name. The restaurant looks old, from its narrow two step walk up entrance, bead board walls, worn carpet and tin ceiling and aged tables and chairs. At some point, years ago, it looks as if they expanded into an adjacent store. This left several rooms at different levels, so you are walking up and down several small stairs. This may prove difficult for some and impossible for a wheel chair.On this early Friday evening, the place was mostly empty and we were seated immediately. The menu featured burgers stuffed with various cheeses, their specialty, we were told. Also were salads, sandwiches and some specials. Friday is Prime Rib and this is what I ordered, while my partner had the Chicken Salad Cheese melt served on English muffin, an unusual combination to say the least. Our meal started with Homemade Cole slaw and pickles, another house tradition. It proves fresh, tangy and homemade. My meal includes a Caesar Salad, baked potato with a generous amount of Sour Cream on the side and an ample cut of prime rib ( I ordered the smaller of the two sizes offered.) The rib was cooked as I requested and was good and the Chicken salad was large chicken chunks and obviously house made. The thick layer of melted cheddar, started off tasting good, but later became overwhelming and was removed. The Fries that accompanied the sanwich were also good. We were offered drinks from the bar, and there were a few interesting specials but we did not sample.The restaurant is an establishment that has grown with the town over the years and it can use a face lift. But the food is honest, homemade and good and a local favorite.Parking is on the street and usually available close by.

This is our family's favorite restaurant. We usually get the 4 course meal and the cheese & chocolate fondue is definitely everyone's favorite. We've been to other Melting Pot locations and fondue restaurants and none were as good as this one in Westwood.

Our favorite place lately. All the dishes are inventive, delicious, and made with sustainable/antibiotic & hormone free foods. Beautiful restaurant, excellent cocktails with choice of two different sizes, and friendly service. Very accommodating to modifications (health/diet reasons), which we very much appreciate. Absolutely love it!

Bonefish Grill is attached to The Town Crown Plaza Hotel which can make parking a challenge on a busy night. The establishment is divided in two, a Bar area with dinning options and a main dinning area. We sat in the Bar dinning area which was fun because of all the activity. All in all the food from appetizers to the main course were good, The Bang Bang Shrimp were excellent, highly recommend this app. All the courses were good with the best being the Crab Crusted Cod.Jasmine was our guide through the dinning experience, she made it a "FUN AND ENGAGING EXPEIENCE"!

This is a real foodie place. It's an old-fashion diner type place aesthetically, but beyond that....food, excellent food, and more excellent food. You go here for the food. Period. It's no frills, nice music, rock and roll theme, but it's all about the food.The menu is a bit eclectic ranging from a delicious chicken salad, to a veal special, to a pasta, to a hanger steak, lobster bisque, a lobster roll, short-rib ravioli, and more. There's excellent flavor and taste in everything -- and the flavor is just layered into all of the ingredients. You get all of the nuances of taste and flavor. Last time I was there, I had crab bisque -- done perfectly. Excellent flavor, perfect consistency, not to pastey or thick, and not thin or watery. Loaded with crab, vegetables, and whatever else they use. I then moved on to a short-rib ravioli, topped off with some hanger steak. I can't say enough -- taste, in each of the ingredients, all of the flavor profile, coming through -- just excellent.
