It's quiet, relaxing, and the outside view makes it such a great place to sit back and enjoy a meal. The food never disappoints either. The short rib hash at brunch is easily one of my favorites, and the braised short rib for dinner is just as good tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. If you're looking for a place with amazing food, excellent service, and a peaceful atmosphere, I can't recommend Terravita enough. Whether it's brunch or dinner, it's definitely worth the visit.

Service overall was fine throughout the meal. We ordered the pancake and steak & eggs. It took quite some time to come out but once it did we did enjoy the dishes. Steak was cooked well and it came with salad and the eggs were good. The pancake was quite nice and I could see why it's a popular order here. Cute restaurant that can be nice for both dates and groups. If you're in the area, I'd say it's worth trying.

I have driven throughout Edgewater for years and have not seen Madison Café and Grill. Thanks to…read moreYelp, my curiosity was piqued and I'm so glad that I visited. The restaurant has an interesting history. Even though the original opened in Cresskill, NJ, it unfortunately has permanently closed. However, not only is the Edgewater location amazing, but it had the guts to open during COVID (2022), survived, and is succeeding. The restaurant is beautiful inside and outside. Their decorations are tasteful, the presentation of the food is award winning, and the service is stellar. I started with a Mocha Cappuccino and it was so good. Served in a large mug, an airy/creamy top, and had the perfect amount of mocha happiness throughout. Before the meal even started, we were graciously given Za'atar (a popular Middle Eastern spice blend with an earthy, tangy, and nutty flavor, toasted sesame seeds, and sumac, with salt). It was crunchy, drizzled with oil, and I enjoyed how each thin pita bite made the spices explode all over the table. The entrees were: Strawberry French Toast. The next was the Falafel Platter (chickpeas and fava bean balls, served with tahini sauce, pickles, turnips, tomato, and mint). The last selection was the Avocado Toast (Citrus cured salmon over multigrain bread, tomatoes, onions, capers & citrus vinaigrette). Not only were all of these dishes beautifully presented, but all were filling, as well. My Avocado Toast kept me full for the rest of the day and the salmon was enjoyably salty, thin, and delicious. I noticed a dessert in their display case and ordered it. The dessert was the Riz Bil Ashta (Lebanese rice cream, infused with orange blossom water, blended with milk and cheese, and topped with crushed pistachios). This dessert tasted like a regal custard and the pistachios added an enjoyable texture that makes it recommended. Of course, I had to cap the meal with a Mocchiato. This amazing beverage followed the rest of the meal..... delicious, eyes closed good, and every sip was full-flavored. Thank you, Madison Café and Grill, for presenting a memorable meal and I wish you continued success.

Our reservation was for 6:30pm but some friends couldn't find it and didn't arrive until close to 7pm. The staff were cool and understanding. At 7pm, there were only a few patrons in the restaurant. By the time we left around 10pm, the restaurant was packed with people standing waiting for a table. We had an amazing time. The restaurant had outdoor seating and it was a beautiful evening to sit outdoors but there were no available seats. The décor and aesthetics of the restaurant were beautiful. The bathroom was located right outside of the restaurant which was a bit confusing because the building itself is a residential on the other side. We enjoyed the live band and DJ. The music was great, mostly old school R&B. They had hookah available. The food and drinks were delicious. For appetizers, we had the wu wings (honey ginger bourbon) and the crab cakes. My friends ordered the catfish and salmon. I had the jamrock jerk chicken with mango salsa, coconut rice and sweet plantains. My meal was finger licking good. LOL We all raved about that coconut rice. Our server was a young gentleman and he was a sweetheart. We were asking to speak to the owner to give him his props but he was busy running around working. We later learned our server was the son of the owner and he was so humble about it. We asked them to shout out our friend for her birthday and they didn't hesitate despite it being crowded. We all agreed this was a spot we would definitely check out again.

Füdgarten - where life meets flavor! The food scene in Fort Lee is bustling and competitive. This…read moreorganic, fast casual eatery doesn't fail to stand out from other businesses. I've been enjoying meals here since 2021 and I've never been disappointed. Füdgarten is the ideal spot to grab a healthy bite during a lunch break, after a work out, or for dinner. There's plenty of seating inside if you want to dine in. The interior is modern, clean, and inviting with lots of greenery. Their menu is built on natural ingredients and bold flavors. You can choose from diverse options like salads, bowls, sandwiches, wraps, burgers, protein shakes, etc. They use grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, wild-caught seafood, and locally sourced organic fruits and vegetables. They carefully craft their recipes and every item is made with love and care! Yes, the prices are on the higher end. But I'm happy to pay for higher quality food... because what you put into your body matters A LOT ;) I've tried a little bit of everything and they're all delicious. The food is packed with vibrant flavors and generous portions of protein. My top recommendation would be the Big NY (~$16). It includes steak, onion, mushrooms, romaine, feta, and lemon cilantro vinaigrette. I usually get it on a whole wheat wrap and it is to die forrrrrrrrr!!! The steak is super juicy and tender. All of the ingredients work so well together! One bite and I was in love. I also love getting a side of baked sweet potato fries ($6). Even the ketchup they use is organic and only made with REAL tomatoes. Don't forget to grab a bottled Kombucha ($5) from their fridge - a tangy, fizzy, sweet, and refreshing drink! The owner, Mike, is the man!!! Haha he's very welcoming, personable, and really cares about customer service. He's the type of business owner that will remember your name and order. And the cherry on top... they have their own parking lot. That's a major perk in this area. If you haven't been here before... get to it!

The vibe inside is calm and low lit, good for conversating with others. Although there really is not something that distinguishes the restaurant. The staff was helpful, no issues in service, they noted specific items which weren't available. Now the menu has just a few items which is not a bad thing but I went with the rigatoni bolognese. My honest opinion is that it was just ok, garlic bread was an added price, and for the price of this dish which was 25$+ for about 10-11 pieces of pasta ... it just is not justified. They are charging nyc midtown prices for average food... in a location where theres plenty of other spots that for half the price will give you double the amount.

Whether one's in the mood for a cozy family dinner or a casual get-together with friends. Sitting on the banks of the Hudson River in Edgewater, my partner, our friends, and I decided on a celebratory dinner at the Haven Waterfront Restaurant & Bar. A reservation was easily made via OpenTable. Upon arrival as first-timers, we were greeted by the host and got a table immediately by the window inside their floor-to-ceiling dining room, evoking a relaxed yet upscale vibe. Their menu specializes in American/Mediterranean cuisine influenced by seafood, steakhouse, and pasta. For appetizers, we decided on Short Rib Crostini, Kumamoto Oysters, and Yellowin Ahi Tuna Tacos. Our main consisted of Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass, 7 oz Prime Cut Filet Mignon, Bangkok Roasted Duck Breast, Lenny's Lobster Pasta, Crispy Lyonnaise Potatoes, and French Butter Asparagus. We even saved room for dessert and got the Bailey's Crème Brûlée and Assorted Dessert Tasting for two. We washed them down with I Dream of Lychees Martini, Berry White Spritz, and Haven Espresso. Complimentary bread with softened butter started our meal. The food is presented like art, and the portions varied depending on what one ordered. It's a little pricey but definitely worth it and fair considering the quality. Our server, Juan, was friendly, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of our questions, which made the experience even more enjoyable. A wonderful night all around--we're already looking forward to coming back.

Unfortunately, the service and food didn't live up to the setting for us. Our waiter, Danny, seemed to have an attitude from the moment we arrived. He hardly checked on our table, and after overhearing his conversations with other tables, it was clear that the energy and attentiveness he gave them felt different from what we received. Since gratuity is automatically included for larger parties, it made the experience even more disappointing. As for the food, several dishes lacked seasoning, including the lobster mac & cheese, salmon, braised short rib, short rib ragu, and lobster croquettes. Our group spent almost $1,400, so unfortunately, we expected more from both the food and service. The views and ambiance are lovely, but based on our experience, I wouldn't return.
