1. Nadie's Touch of Pasta

Visited Nadie's tonight with my girlfriends on one of there recommendations. It was an excellent dinner! Starting with the most delicious bread & oil on the table along with toasts with scallion and eggplant that was just so good. The Nadie Salad served Family style was an absolute hit with salami diced and cheese in it. I could have had this as my Meal. All 3 of us ordered different entrees and each was just so incredible. The portions are so big you have 2 or 3 meals and the fresh Rigatoni served with the entrees was to die for. This is a hidden Gem in a strip mall and no doubt we will be regulars after tonight.

First time at this byob restaurant. We found street parking but you can also park across the street at the church. We started with the stuffed artichoke which was good and under ten dollars. For entrees my niece had red snapper and I had the seafood special with pasta in a pink sauce. Both were very good. They bring a plate of dessert samples to choose from and they all looked good. I can't remember the name of the dessert I chose but it was good.

This bakery is great solo, friends, family and what I usually do, take home! Sook has the most incredible baked goods that were ever created in Bergen county. She is the most gifted pastry chef. Their almonds croissants are incredible as is everything else she creates! Oh, and BTW, the coffee is awesome also.

This is the best local bakery with ten miles or so, with a wide range of fresh bakery goods. Their cookie selection is particularly good at holiday time. Fast attentive service; cleanliness appears to be pretty good.

A bit of a surprise find. We were heading to a concert a William Paterson University and came across this nearby place. If you're a beer person, this place is for you. Very cool. And the menu was diverse, from chicken wings to lobster bisque. It is not too big, limited seating (reservations only for parties of 6+). If you are in WPU area, definitely give it a try.

Lovely upscale, romantic French restaurant at the end of Ridgewood Ave. with a small municipal parking lot adjacent to it. The food quality is exceptional having been prepared by Chef/ Owner, Michael Latour who is a cut above the average chef. This is a BYO restaurant decorated primarily in white shades.

Rocca was hose not for a friends' night out because we actually wanted to have a conversation and unlike some other local Italian restaurants, this isn't too noisy. It's a pleasant dining room, with tables far enough apart for privacy. The menu is interesting. I ordered the cornmeal crusted calamari and hot peppers with a ramekin of hot tomato sauce as a starter it was very nice. My friend had the unusual fired artichoke and olive salad which she really enjoyed. Other salads were ordered as well. For a main course, I ordered the daily special, which was Chicken Marsala, served with mushrooms in the sauce, and mashed potato. The chicken was tender and the potato was good, however the sauce was extremely salty. I didn't enjoy it quite as much as I had hoped.
The four of us shared two desserts; the ricotta fritters with raspberry sauce and the mini cannoli. They were both very good but I would say that the ricotta fritters were unexpectedly exceptional.
This restaurant is a BYO, so we brought a few bottles of wine which were graciously opened for us and left to enjoy in a variety of stemware. This always helps the budget, so our meal ended up costing $169 including tip, for four diners. We had a very nice evening. By 9:30pm though. The restaurant was completely empty of customers besides our table. The staff began to set tables for the next day and eventually made it clear that they wanted to close up. We had been there for 2 1/2 hours so I can't say that we were rushed out, but as we were enjoying our evening so much and it wasn't very late, I would have preferred not to have to leave before we wanted to.

I can't imagine anybody that lives in northern NJ, that has not eaten here. Libby's is one of those places that everybody knows about. The hot dogs are great and the sauce is delicious. Try their steak and cheese sandwich. One of the best I have had. The prices are right also. Another must stop place ti eat.

The menu offers a wide variety of pastas, chicken and veal anyway you want them, steaks, chops and pork chop to die for.
The service is very professional, friendly and attentive to your needs. Valet parking is offered. This is definitely a restaurant to return to.
