Smart eating at its best if you are into clean food option. They cater to the morning and lunch meals since they are closed evening time. And, it looks like they pump out some solid menu options all day long with a juice menu, sushi spot, and lunch specials. Only gripe is their hours and how they cook some of their dishes. I noticed a microwave behind the counter and I am not happy when I see that at a food establishment. I guess to make their food in a hurry they use the microwave to cook or "re-heat" some of their food... not good in my eyes. Nonetheless, this is clean eating and it does have some tasty options. read more

The sandwiches are filling and taste great! None have failed me yet. The absolute hidden gem and powerhouse sandwich is the ABLT. Its perfection. Service has been great and very friendly with plenty of seats! read more

Came back to town just to visit this place again and it was amazing. The quality of food is consistent and their standards haven't changed. I always get their sandwiches and it's so GOOD!!! read more

First time here with an order for 10! Restaurant is very busy, yet quality ingredients are put together with care. Despite the quick preparation, food looks "photo ready"! Was starving so no picture of my sandwich, but it was tasty, high quality, good portion, and prepared with care. Great staff and reasonable prices too! Looking forward to going back! read more

Definitely a go-to for my lunch. I really can't get over how much they give you in the sandwiches. The Sunrise is really good - comes with Grilled Chicken, Field Greens, Brie Cheese, Tomato & Honey Mustard. I also love the Open Field - comes with Sliced Steak, Grated Parmesan, Sliced Tomato & Topped w/Garlic Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar. I've been ordering this panini since high school and they have yet to fail me. Plenty of meat in the paninis and darn right good! Their bowls are delicious too. I have recently been ordering the Chicken Teriyaki Avocado Bowl - comes with brown rice, avocado, grilled chicken w/teriyaki sauce. They do not jip you on the avocado or grilled chicken either! They serve breakfast, smoothies and sushi as well! read more

I love everything about food for life. My fav place in jersey to get healthy meals, snacks and drinks. Great prices, nice quality and tasty food! My go to is their chicken lunch box, or their grilled chicken with grilled vegetables and rice. I also love getting some of their snacks and nut mixes to take home and eat throughout the week. The power up brand trail mix blends are the perfect thing to eat when youre in the mood for something sweet or salty and want to stay healthy. I also sometimes get a smoothie here and theyre always tasty. I especially love how they use a fresh squeezed orange juice for some of the bases. Bonus is that the owners and staff are always super nice and lovely. I cant wait to try everything on the menu read more

Ordered for delivery. Got an avocado chicken teriyaki bowl. There was NO avocado. Also made my own wrap, but it didnt come with caesar dressing I asked for and the avocado was extremely thin and tasted old. The lettuce also tasted old and wilted. Chicken strips were veeery thin :( Also dont get your hopes up for the sushi! We requested a refund and they weren't able to do so. read more

My order was totally screwed up, I was missing items and most of the food wasn't done as ordered. I called for a refund for the items I didn't get but instead a lady asked me to come back and pick up the items they forgot to add. I explained that I live 20 miles away but she didn't care and it ended up with her yelling at me. Regardless, the vegetables weren't fresh at all! read more

Everything is fresh and delicious ... every time !! I get the Morning Mushroom Wrap probably 3 times a week. It is SO good !! Reasonably priced and keeps me full until mid-afternoon. Chicken salad, tuna salad, grilled chicken with roasted veggies, sushi ... all great !! They have smoothies and protein shakes made to order. Fresh cut fruit is available, as well. They use only top notch ingredients right down the bread and wraps. They are happy to substitute items or delete items as your request. The friendliest owners and staff ... always happy to see their customers. Many choices here ... give it a try !! read more

Went for Daily Lunch Special Food - 4/5. Sushi was great and fresh; the fish was cut into thick slices so you can really taste them and the California rolls were firm with a good rice ratio. Salad was pretty basic with a ginger dressing. The dumplings were really sad. They tasted like steamed frozen dumplings that were cooled down so they can fit into the same compartment as the California rolls in the bento box and a cold dumpling just doesn't taste good. Service - 4/5. Food came out quick and the cashiers were fast. Value - 4/5. The lunch specials run at $11 which is a pretty average price. Sushi is good but you only get four pieces with less than memorable sides that fill the rest of your bento box. It feels underwhelming compared to other sushi lunch specials in the area.

I've been going to Food For Life for man years now and it never disappoints! food is heathy not to mention delicious. ( I recommend the Food For Life special) Very nice staff, food comes out pretty quick. clean healthy vibes here! A little on the pricey side but totally worth it! read more

Low quality if you compare to previous years. There is no right foot what they say in the menu.

Tried food for life, have very fresh sushi and salads. Enjoyed it very much. Just preorder if going for lunch because they get busy pretty fast. Thanks for a delicious lunch ! read more

I love this place. Its perfect for grabbing a HEALTHY sandwich on the go. You also have starbucks to your left and froyo to your right in the same plaza. My all time fav sandwich is the "food for life" sandwich, with warm thinly cut chicken breast, lettuce, tomatoes, herb mayo and... apples! The crunchy apples really tie the whole thing together, and it is absolutely delicious. They have a pretty decent shelf full of "healthier" chips, sushi on the other side of the store, drink and teas and coffee, etc! Parking can be annoying (but no one stays parked for too long), and the sandwiches do take a bit of time as they are made fresh fresh fresh! read more

4 stars only because I happen to be a regular at the Englewood Cliffs location and find the seemingly larger space a bit more comfortable for the overall experience. Still, the offerings are the same and always fresh and delicious. Visit Food For Life for breakfast and order an egg white, turkey and Swiss on whole wheat wrap. For lunch get the Food For Life Special on whole wheat wrap. For dinner try a salad or brown rice bowl. Alternates are bagels, tuna salad (done right with minimal mayo), and/or sushi. I believe this Location in Fort Lee, NJ is the original. The Edgewater and Englewood Cliffs sites all followed. read more

Food For Life - Chips - Sandwiches Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

Food for life had been hit or miss for me. I really enjoy their bowls and recently I had just had not the best batch. Couple months ago the bowls were fresh and warm. Not I get a bowl and it's not prepared as well and looks to have been sitting for awhile. Recently I got a the veggie and rice bowl with chicken. I added avocado (cause who doesn't love avo!) but the avo was brown and not fresh. Also the sticker from the avocado was IN MY BOWL. CMON. It sucks cause I love finding healthy places in fort lee as it is close to where I work. I'll give it another try but one more strike and I'm out for good! read more

I never had sliced apple in my sandwich until i tired food for life sandwich. This place is at a very convenient place with lots of parking space, and it is true sometimes its hard to find parking during rush hours but for the most park you'll be fine. Anyway, from the second you walk in to the store, your realize most the snacks, drink, tea and other items are healthier than what most delis put on their shelves. You make fresh juices, sushi , sashimi, sandwiches, etc... The only thing i have had so far is the food for life sandwich. Grilled chicken, apple, cinnamon, tomato, lettuce and mayo. Really tasty and crisp because of the apples. As i mentioned before never had apple in a sandwich like that after having it here i can say its great. I've been to edgewater location too, they said they sold that to someone else so its not the same people running it but its the same menu. Give this place a try for a quick , healthy lunch. You wont be disappointed! read more

Meh. I've experienced better is probably the only way to describe it. I went in for breakfast sandwiches and expected better. One girl as a cashier, another taking/making orders, lots of customers. I asked for a bacon egg sandwich on a plain bagel along with a sausage egg and cheese on a plain. She said they were out of plain bagels... then found some? Okay, can I make one of them a platter so I can get some home fries and toast? Oh the cook who makes that went home you say? Okay... it's 10AM... So, no home fries and toast, fine no problem. Oh, 10 dollar minimum on a card? Grrr... okay... if i had some home fries and toast, that wouldnt be a problem! Okay... sigh... I'll get some juice and fruit. NO OJ?! What kind of deli is this???? Fine, I'll pay now. Get home, no sausage in my sandwich. Terrible. read more

This is a great place to grab a quick lunch for on the go!My favorite is the chicken teriyaki lunch special. It comes with brown rice, a house salad served with delicious ginger dressing, and a 4 piece california roll. read more

Food For Life - Great chicken teriyaki lunch combo for only 8.99$ - Sandwiches Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

Friendly staff neatly prepares your salad, panini, or wrap with super fresh ingredients. I had a tuna wrap with swiss cheese which they pressed in the hot panini press (without me even asking), so nice and toasty it was just hot enough to put grill marks on the wrap without cooking the tuna. They also have fresh juices and sushi ( which I haven't tried) Will definitely be returning next time I need lunch on the go in a hurry. read more

Slightly overpriced, but their sandwiches are good and hearty. I opted for the Chicken Deluxe on a whole wheat roll-- not on the menu, but Yelp-suggested and it was filling :) Brother ordered a Food for Life wrap, not bad. read more

Probably the best variety of wraps and pannini's in the Fort Lee area that i have experienced. All top quality ingredients and very fresh tasting. A great place to order lunch on your break from work like myself.. They do not deliver which would be convenient for me but i dont mind the walk to get out of the office and get some air. I had the Sunrise Wrap which has chicken with honey mustard sauce. Very tasty and fresh. Very prompt service so you will not wait long and friendly staff which is always a plus. read more

For a quick healthy meal/ juice/ salad. It a good place. I wouldn't really say they use all the best produce. Its typical bodega food. but displayed in a cleaner, fancier way. Super overpriced for what your getting. They charge extra for everything. I got cold cut subs there. messed up my order twice. Once when I asked for spinach instead of lettuce and another time when I asked for the roll to be scooped out... I've also tired their fresh juice. Choices are limited and also overpriced. I would only go here if I was desperate for something somewhat clean. Its the only healthy choice around this area... read more

I'm here every morning. Always fresh. Love it here. They have wheet grass. Fruit. Chicken. Freshly squeezed orange juice. Eggs. It's great.

I go to the location in Parker Plaza. It's very busy, so I don't blame them for the wait. However, everything is severely overpriced for what you get! I work in the building, otherwise I'd never come here. I don't know what the other location is like. Please! More food for the money! Thanks! read more

Found the sushi pretty decent. The drinks were very good. Friendly service and decent parking.

My brother and I have come to this place twice and their sandwiches never disappoint. It's a must for anyone who wants a good meal!

Food for Life used to be my lunch spot when I was in high school. The A.B.L.T with brie cheese (you have to ask for it) is seriously heavenly. I mean a BLT is amazing on it's own but add avocado and brie and you've got a winner. The rest of the sandwiches I've tried haven't lived up, but I do like their chicken salad triple decker with bacon when I'm feeling really white. The sushi is OK but usually a little too cold for my liking. They used to have some great shumai in the sushi section that I would take home and microwave but they haven't had them in years, which bums me out. Basically, if you want something light, healthy, and affordable try FFL. Their smoothies and fresh squeezed orange juice are awesome. I'm partial to the berry fusion. read more

For me, this place really epitomizes what healthy eating is. Everything is fresh and made-to-order. There are no fancy sauces, no loading on the sodium or MSG, nothing is really fried and overly battered, etc. When you eat the food from Food For Life, you just feel good about yourself because you're feeding yourself all the right nutrients in the best way possible. Their sandwiches, platters, sushi, smoothies--all of it is really clean and fresh. I definitely swing by the place a lot and suggest it to those of you who are health conscious! Plus the staff is incredibly warm, friendly and accommodating... Only gripe: minus 1 start for being very overpriced. read more

This place is very good - fresh food, inventive combos. However, they are quite expensive. I don't mind spending a bit more for a good sandwich/sushi roll but their prepackaged fruit/chips/bars are really expensive! Also, one time I wanted to use my credit card to pay for a purchase that was under $10 and they refused. That is against CC regulations - you cannot put limits on the amount of a transaction (I could have called Amex and had their account suspended/blacklisted but I"m not that mean). Usually that would be enough for me never to visit an establishment again, but I'll make an exception for Food for Life and still visit, albeit far less frequently (once every few months rather than a few times a week). read more

Perfect place to go to if you're looking for healthier menus. Literally. They even have a section towards your right as soon as you walk in with many choices of organic, sugar free juices, fresh cut fruit and things like vegan cookies. Their wraps are delicious, The salads are salads & Their small sushi section is OK. (However, I always tend to ask for a fresh batch of my choice fresh sushi.) I have yet to try out their juices and smoothies, yet I have heard from various coworkers that they're not to die for and can probably make them tastier at home. During lunch time are its peak hours so I'd recommend to call ahead and place your order. I have stopped coming to this location only because of how busy it gets and the prolonged wait period to get your order but I'll be back soon, maybe. read more

Had the second bad experience with the staff. Being ignored is one of my top of the line pet peeves with any establishment I step into. After standing being ignored, while, others were acknowledged coming into Food For life after me, I was finally waited on. There were two females, plus the grill man behind the counter. The Grill man prepped and completed my order, and sat it next to one of the females to hand it over it over to me. One female was on the phone, the other working the register, she looked at my order, not once but twice, she then proceeded to walk from behind the counter to sit at a table and chat with a customer! My order is ready I stood there waiting for somebody to hand me my order, it did not happen. I then walked over and asked the grill man if that was my order, he shook his head yes, looked over at the female who left from behind the counter to chat up the customer, shook his head, as if to say, " Why are you sitting there, when a customer is waiting for their order which is ready to go"?? The grill man stopped what he was doing handed me my order with an apology. I have been in this Deli more times then I can count each time I go in Food For Life, the treatment I receive, borders very close to racist, I have noticed it not only in how I am treated but with other people of color as well! I will not go in Food For Life again, and I strongly suggest to other Black and Brown persons of color to proceed with caution, our money is not welcomed there at all. read more

This is my go to spot when I realize I've been eating like shit for a while (chicken parm, steaks, pizza, all in the same week). I usually go for their sunrise chicken sandwich and a green juice, although their chicken salad wrap is very good. I usually add bacon to it. Don't judge me. read more

Sushi not reliable. Today's salmon and tuna was not fresh and the rice bed was cold. Ended up with serious digestive issues. Never again.

Mediocre and overpriced with rude staff. Sushi was good but I'd rather go down the street to the H Mart to grab some. Nothing really special about this place to me. read more
