Food was AMAZIIIING. Look at the pics for reference. Not 100% the dishes name, but it was great. Good price and good sized portions. Also tried a new Macedonian beer. Im not a big drinker so it was an experience. Would drink again. Service was fast. We ordered a lot so we had to wait a bit but everything was hot and loaded. Waitress was nice and complimented our tattoos lol. Inside is... wow. A lot of plastic animals around lol. I honestly wasn't expecting it. The walls are green and lovely. read more

I selected Deja Vu for a Tuesday night dinner with friends. We were seated immediately at around 6:15. The decor is fun, two different vibes. One section is garden inspired and the other section has more of a club feel. Our waiter was friendly and provided great recommendations. (Plus some spicy peppers for us to try, bit much for my palate) We ordered a lot of food. One of my friends really enjoyed the beef soup, the cucumber salad was pretty much sliced cucumbers, the yogurt dip was fresh and tasty, and the Bulgarian salad was a hit with great pieces of feta. The Deja Vu grilled platter for two was outstanding! So much delicious variety of meats! We added a skirt steak that my friend wanted, plus the pork and beef patties in Marsala sauce, and the white bean casserole. The bean and Marsala dishes were excellent! It was a struggle but we finished all of the meat! Definitely look forward to returning! read more

I thought restaurants with these vibes were only in NYC until I went here! When you walk in, you'll feel like you've been transported to a fairytale garden! It's the perfect spot for a date or to lounge around and grab some drinks! Sometimes places with pretty aesthetics lack in food quality or taste, but not here!! Everything is incredibly fresh and comes out piping hot! For appetizers I got fried calamari and pastrmajlija (a traditional flatbread)! I really loved both dishes - the quality of the squid was excellent and the flatbread was so flavorful with the olives! For my main dishes, I got the sofra for 2 and shish kebabs - there was so much delicious and tender meat My sweet cocktails, the strawberry margarita and blue hugo, were both vibrant and strong which matched the floral and colorful vibes perfectly! Whether it's vibes, drinks or food, this place surpasses expectations! read more

I lived in Garfield for a brief stint of time I'm thankful I had Deja Vu around the block! Delicious drinks and unique food options. Unfortunately the location doesn't sit in the most visually appealing area in Garfield/Wallington, however they make yo for it with the interior and the bright and colorful lights. Friendly service and a fun time. read more

Went here for lunch after it was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint! The portions are very large and you can tell everything is prepared fresh and homemade. Relaxing and comfortable environment and although we didn't drink while there, the bar cocktails looked very good. Service was quick and very friendly. We had never been there before so our waiter gave several great recommendations. Would definitely return! read more

I was super excited to try this restaurant. When I arrived I found parking in their small lot. I walked in, and the restaurant was very nice. I was served by Manuel, and he was great. I started with the lemon drop martini, which was good. I then had the Dejavu Shrimp for appetizers, the Pastrmajlija Chicken, and the Shish Kabob chicken. The food was very tasty, but the shrimp was my absolute favorite! I had a great experience. read more

The meat platter for two was filled with all sorts of meats that I've never tried so it was a fun and unique experience. Everything tasted amazing, the drinks were strong and the service was great!!

I've passed this place so many times but last night was the night my husband and I made our way in. Boy are we kicking ourselves for waiting so long. we were greeted right away and sat in their newly renovated front area, which is beautifully decorated. we chose to start with the tacos, shrimp and the melted cheese dip. They did not bring them out all at once, which was nice so you got to enjoy each of them equally and let me tell you each of them was better than the next. My favorite appetizer was the cheese dip. Oh my if you are a cheese lover, this is for you. Then we decided to split the plate for two and we had a side of rice and grilled veggies. The meat was all so flavorful, fresh and juicy. Oh, and let's not forget so delicious!!! Was a ton of food and we brought home leftovers and the price point is great! Definitely check this place out highly recommend and can't wait to go back and try some other menu items read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would but unfortunately I can't. First off we waited 1hr and 10mins to get our food. The waiter was rude and inattentive not sure what nationality they were but we noticed some other patrons that spoke their language who came 30mins after us and got served 20mins after they sat down while we were still waiting. Secondly the food was disgusting we waited all that time to get a bad stomachache from the food and keep in mind they gave very little food quantity. I would highly recommend you stay away from this place unless you want to contract an upset stomach and diarrhea. Seriously not worth it!! Horrible experience!! read more

Experience the allure of Balkan cuisine at this aesthetic restaurant. I truly enjoyed the food and I recommend you try the déjà vu, shrimp, and the Uvijachi. This is a great place to go for a date night, out with the girls or even a family dinner. The staff is friendly and helpful. read more

Deja Vu Restaurant & Bar - Mediterranean Omelette - Mediterranean Near Me - Garfield, New Jersey

definitely a great place to come with friends I enjoyed the food and ambiance. The server was great as well.

The restaurant has an abundance of mixed food options on the menu. The appetizer combo was a huge portion and the chicken wings were probably the best I've had in New Jersey. The shrimp was delicious with a bite of spice that made the lettuce garnish just as delicious. If you're interested in trying something different try the Loveaka dinner. I found it very interesting not having anything like it to compare. I found myself thinking about it several hours afterwards. The decorations in the restaurant are definitely different with flowers and lighting that look like more of a park than a place to eat. The waterfall was a little bit more than expected and spilled onto the border but wasn't a problem. I would recommend trying this one out and picking something you normally wouldn't try it might be a pleasant surprise. The staff was friendly and not pushy or trying to rush anything and desert was just as good. read more

Went here with friends for my birthday dinner and we had an amazing time. From the moment we walked in literally, the staff were so welcoming and friendly. The drinks were on point and the appetizers delicious! The entrees were just as amazing too!! They were nice enough to bring me a piece of this yummy cake at the end which was sweet, pun intended. The place itself was really cute and cozy and I cannot wait to be back. read more

Went there on a Friday night to get a drink, so went straight to the bar. The bar area was empty but there were people seating outside eating. We ordered a cosmopolitan and apple martini, and both of them were served with ice! This was so disappointing, I don't know if the bartender was new or just didn't know, but when we ordered the next round with another bartender she didn't put any ice. Since it was late we just got an appetizer which was ok, but I would definitely like to go back and try the food. read more

Be ready to wait 2 hrs when you order even if is only two people in the entire place!!! Its ridiculous!!! Service is horrible!!! Don't expect typical restaurant service feeling was you are not welcomed there!!! Only one thing was good the fries!!! Lady across the table was not happy that they charged her 20$ gratitude over 100$ bill!!! Why should she pay extra if she is not satisfied whit the service!!! read more

Paid a visit to Deja Vu with my Macedonian friend, Jugo Z. before his trip to Macedonia. We sat at the bar, and I'm pretty sure the staff and all the patrons (minus myself) were Macedonian. It's a surprisingly nice bar, it even has outdoor seating. I had a few Macedonian beers, and a good amount of food to share. We got the mixed grill, and fries with feta. I notice that they add pork to basically everything. Grilled chicken had bacon, sausages had pork, every meat had some pork. Fries and feta were tasty, I like the dried red peppers they have as a condiment. It was good, but nothing I'd go out of my way for. read more

All the Mediterranean food was amazing, as well as the service. Can't wait to get back!!!

GO HERE FOR DRINKS ONLY! I loved my drinks I tried here especially the strawberry lime rose sangria....I will come back for this alone. The food however, just horrible. Apps: Fried feta - good, just like mozzarella sticks but with feta instead, bread with paprika and shredded feta - simple dish but surprisingly good Main: baby back pork ribs - overly salted which ruined the entire meal (good thing I had that delicious sangria to rinse my mouth with), chicken shish kabobs - overcooked, dry and tough to eat, I enjoyed the onions on the skewers Sides (each main comes with a choice of a side) - Rice was good, mashed potatoes were cold and bland Loved that they had a patio, great for nice weather! read more

The staff is very friendly and cordial, specifically Anya. When I ordered a Piña Colada it came watered down, no coconut milk, no pineapple...in other words horrible Piña Colada, I explained to Anya and she immediately remedied the issue. She made a real Piña Colada, a better than last. For appetizer we had Calamari and it was fantastic! My wife ordered the Homemade Grilled Sausage with yellow rice and vegetables. The sausage was deliciously made, the rice was tender and flavorful, she had a problem with the veggies, she said that it had no flavor and it seems to be from frozen vegetable bags from supermarket. I had the Stuff Pork Chop-stuffed with ham and provolone and covered in mushrooms . I loved my Chop, it was superb, and tender. I also had yellow rice but I had mash potatoes, my mash was cold but tasted good. I would have given Deja Vu 5 out of 5 if the vegetables weren't frozen and my mash was at least warm. But otherwise it was a great experience! read more

We visited Deja Vu for an early dinner following a message their terrace opened. The terrace is an open part of the restaurant and is built out with ceiling fans and sturdy chairs and tables which makes the experience much better than other places. They are using regular cutlery and plates so it's a real great experience compared to other places that opened with plastic knives, forks and plates. For appetizers we ordered the Mezze, Tarator and Shopska Salad. The Mezze was a bit underwhelming and certainly not worth the prices. The cheeses were pretty bland as were the cold cuts. On the flip site - the Tarator and Shopska were great. The Tarator was thicker than what I'm used to, but was very good and refreshing in the heat. The shopska was very refreshing and well seasoned. Both are highly recommended. For entrees we ordered the Kebabchi, skirt steak and Uspici. The skirt steak was a generous portion and was cooked well. The kebabchi were dry and not too flavorful and were a disappointment. Next time I'll opt for something else. The uspici benefitted from the sauce (it's a must and costs an extra $1 but well worth it). Finally for dessert we got a crepe which is the only locally made dessert. It was ok. The one annoyance was smoking by other patrons. There were multiple smokers and since it's an outside terrace we had to endure. Service was nice but not super attentive. All in all - if the place were non smoking I would definitely return, otherwise, it's a toss up. 3.5 stars would be 4.5 without the smoke. read more

You ever have that craving for some amazing and authentic Balkan Peninsula cuisine? Well I do and thankfully I work with someone that led me to a gem in Garfield, NJ. The place is called Deja Vu. And like the French word itself, my first visit to this restaurant felt like I had already been here before. Part of that was the welcoming embrace that the owner of the place extended to my friends and me. It felt as if I had known this man for so long. He talked with us, shared what the dishes were, and overall made me feel so right at home I did not want to leave. Dmitry is the owner of this establishment but he might as well be a long-lost uncle. He really knows how to make guests feel like a family and that by itself is worth more than any five stars in my book. Alas that is not the only thing this restaurant has going for it. I will now proceed to describe the amazing meal that I experienced at Deja Vu--one that I hope to experience over and over again. Let me start with the appetizer and salad. A meal that begins with a salad that can stand as a main course is a great start any way you look at it. The DejaVu Salad "Shopska Salata" is an amalgamation of some fresh ingredients that include tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, onions, olive oil, salt, and Bulgarian feta cheese. The definition of fresh and refreshing to the palate is highlighted by this dish. One of the best salads I've had. As if playing the younger, but still as talented sibling to the salad, was the "Nafora" appetizer. This dish consists of toasted bread, red paprika and feta cheese. The earthy flavor accentuated by the paprika made this dish a perfect counterpoint to the salad we had. For the entrée my friends shared the Deja Vu Special which is basically a heaping pile of assorted meats, French fries, and you guessed it more feta cheese. As for me I opted for the grilled salmon fillet served with baked potato. The salmon was fresh and smoky and the herb-infused olive oil dressing to the side made it even more special. A perfect combination of flavor, consistency, and delivery made the meal amazing. I can't say enough great things about this restaurant. The décor is modern and so is the ambience. The bar area is separated from the sit-down area to accommodate those that want to drink and socialize with those that want a more traditional dinner setting. In the summer months I definitely can imagine the outdoor patio to be a great hangout destination. Overall my visit left an impression. I can't wait to make a return visit and have that feeling of déjà vu once again. read more

I gave this one store for the wait staff were friendly. But the service was incredibly slow for a bar type restaurant. Not being familiar with belkin food, we ended up selecting chicken shish kebab... How bad could that be?... And another dish which consisted of a large ground chicken burger with provolone in the middle. We just asked for water and I also ordered a Diet Coke. We had to wait 35-40 minutes for the food to come and when it finally did, it was incredibly disappointing. The chicken shish kebab was so tough and dried, you could hardly cut it. It was a companied by frozen mixed vegetables. In the end, we couldn't even eat the shish kebab and asked our waitress if there was some sauce to go with this. She didn't understand what we were saying and eventually called over another waitress who looked at us strangely and then said, how about some mushroom sauce? We said OK and another 20 minutes elapsed before the mushroom sauce arrived. It was OK, but a bit salty. In the end, nothing could rescue that tragically dried out and tough chicken shish kebab. We ended up leaving it As for the ground chicken burger with the cheese in the middle accompanied by what appeared to be frozen french fries, at least we had a chance of being able to cut into it. But that also had a strange taste and I ended up picking out small pieces of ground up bone. Finally, instead of bringing us two glasses of water, they brought two plastic containers of water. The Diet Coke I ordered came in a miniature 8 ounce bottle. We were charged for the water and the baby bottle of Coke and also charged $2.50 for the mushroom sauce that was supposed to remedy the dry tough shish kebab. As I mentioned upfront, The waitresses were very nice and that was the only thing good I could say about this restaurant. read more
