    Always stellar service and delicious high quality food. They have revamped their desserts which is great the mango and coconut sorbet are delightful and refreshing! Outdoor seating is a must in spring/summer.

    I went to Lefkes on a Friday night and made reservations ahead of time as were a party of 13. As soon as we arrived, we were seated right away since our table was already ready, which made everything start off smoothly. This is a really good Greek restaurant with a fun, lively atmosphere. We ordered a variety of dishes mix between seafood, chicken and steak, and everything was very good. The portions were decently sized just enough to leave you full, but not quite enough for leftovers. We ordered a bottle and asked the waiter separately if it could come out with sparklers. There was a slight off vibe at first and some slight attitude but as the night went on, the sever became much friendlier and attentive. The music throughout dinner was great, and some Middle Eastern songs came on that were actually really fun to dance to. After we ate, the energy picked up even more and we were able to get up and start dancing. This is definitely a perfect birthday spot if you want a mix of good food and a fun night out. Overall, we had an amazing time, great vibes and great music.

    Saturday night Birthday Celebration! I've been wanting to try the food at Lefkes for a while now and felt like it would be great for my husband's birthday dinner. My friends were seated promptly upon arrival due to having reservations. Once I arrived with my husband for his surprise birthday dinner our server Herbert was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and his recommendations were very helpful in choosing our apps and entrees. Since we were a party of 8 it was decided to choose several different apps and salads. All the food was absolutely amazing! The ambiance was great. They had a live DJ and a gentleman who walked around taking pictures. There were a few things that I wasn't fond of, the first thing was that they turned the lights down very low, second thing was that the guy who was taking pictures kept coming back to the table for more pictures which was a little annoying and the third was that our server although very funny and nice didn't get our food orders correct. I'm not sure if him not writing it down was the reason for that but that was upsetting because my husband didn't get what he ordered and it was his birthday dinner. Thank God we had great company and conversation so it wasn't a huge deal life has so many other things to focus on but a server should know with a party with more than 2 people you should write things down lol. The decor was stunning, they also have beautiful outdoor dining once weather permits and valet parking. This place is great for large dinner parties.

    Had a BLAST going on Saturday at 9pm for a drink. Loved the mango habanero Smokey drink was absolutely delicious. Beautiful place and people! So many bdays with people celebrating and dressed up which was so festive! The DJ, live drummer, napkin throwing, smoke machine... had so much fun dancing my butt off for hours!! Cannot wait to come back! (DJ starts after 8pm. Super party time was I think after 11pm.)

    What a beautiful place! I came here on a friend's recommendation, and I absolutely loved it. The service was fantastic; our waitress was kind and friendly. He recommended some great dishes, and the food was extremely delicious. The restaurant's interior is beautifully elegant. We chose to sit outside because the weather was sunny, and I really enjoyed it. There were some celebrations happening nearby, making it a lovely spot for a family dinner or a relaxing meal. They offer a variety of food options, some of which can be pricey, but they also have great deals during the week.

    What can I say about Lefkes, except for this place is insane. I think Friday night and Saturday night they just go all out with a DJ and napkin throwing. The vibe is crazy. We also dined here and ordered the sushi...who would've thought that sushi at a Greek restaurant would be this good. Sushi seemed a bit pricey, but for the atmosphere totally worth it. Service matched the price and vibe. Exceptional. We also met the manager of Lefkis. She's also dope as hell too. She knows how to make customers feel they need to come back. We waited about an hour after our reservation time and she hooked us up. Definitely knows how to please customers to get repeat customers. Coming back any chance I get.

    Enjoyed a nice dinner at Lefkes Estiatorio recently! The inside is very spacious with lots of seating on the first and second floor, including a bar section. The restaurant has a warm and elegant atmosphere. However, it doesn't encapsulate its Greek theme as you'd expect it to. Ambiance rate 6.5/10. They start the dinner with complimentary garlic bread paired with hummus and olives which were good. My family and I ordered... 1. Greek Spreads: Choice of 3: - Tarama: this delectable spread made of cured fish roe was my favorite! 10/10 - Tirokafteri: this dip had a nice creamy, and slightly spicy flavor. 7/10. - Skordalia: this potato garlic dip was average considering it lacked its garlic taste. 5/10. 2. Calamari: This appetizer tasted like your classic fried calamari, nothing special. Rate 7/10. 3. Lamb Shank: This dish was very delicious! The red wine sauce made the dish super flavorful! Plus, the meat was nice and tender! Rate 8/10. 4. Seafood Linguine: This entrée was incredible! The bisque sauce tasted very good! I wish they added more seafood though. Rate 8/10. 5. Primed Dry Aged NY Strip: This meal was practically perfect considering its mouthwatering flavor, tender meat, and that it was cooked to my liking! Rate 9/10. - this dish comes with lemon potatoes which were not too tasty if your not a lemon lover like myself 6. Truffle Fries: This side was great! It had a strong truffle flavor which I prefer! Rate 8/10. The service was relatively quick and the staff were nice. Service/staff rate 7/10. Overall, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience here and would definitely recommend for others to try!

    The food is good, I had a sushi roll with truffle, mayo. The drinks are very good service is good. Ambience is fine. They may get a party after 10 o'clock. But the crowd can get a little rude and rowdy. I recommend going before 10 o'clock unless you're looking for a wild night.

    Visited Lefkes for happy hour on a Friday. We were seated quickly, but it turns out, the happy hour menu is only available in the bar area. This was annoying, but we moved to a table closer to the bar after some griping from the host. The waitstaff was friendly and accommodating otherwise. We ordered a meatball pizza, fries, rock shrimp, calamari, mini gyros, and the buffalo chicken souvlaki. They were all OK. Drinks were reasonably priced for happy hour. It's a nice restaurant, but the food wasn't anything I'd come back for. Only worth it for happy hour.

    The ambiance here is lovely. It's a beautiful restaurant with great service. I do enjoy their appetizers more than the entrees. Last time I tried the beef gyros which were okay. My favorites are their calamari and sushi rolls.

    Had an incredible lunch at Lefkes Estiatorio in Englewood Cliffs. The decor is absolutely beautiful and the atmosphere is elegant yet welcoming, making it a wonderful place to relax and enjoy a great meal. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked tender, flavorful, and truly outstanding. The short ribs were just as impressive, rich and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. We ended the meal with the orange cake, which was the perfect finish light, fragrant, and absolutely delicious. What made the experience even better was the exceptional service from James and Christol. They were attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the entire meal. Their professionalism and warmth elevated the whole experience. Highly recommend for a beautiful lunch with amazing food, a lovely atmosphere, and top-notch service! Evee and Harry

The soup was so fresh and flavorful that I would honestly come back just for it. The mackerel was a big portion, crispy outside and tender inside. The Mul Naengmyeon was such a surprise. It's not the usual sweet and sour style. The noodles were super thin and cold, and the broth had a really unique flavor. I loved it. We also tried the Sundae Platter and Seafood Scallion Pancake. The pancake was a little oily but so good, with big pieces of seafood. Big portions, good prices, and lots of side dishes. We ate really well for under $20 per person. Good for both a quick solo meal or coming with a group.

The broth was decent but not great; it leans more on the herbal side and isn't as spicy as other places. Oyster, Seaweed & Beef Soup (3/5): Packed with seaweed, but only came with about 5 oysters and very little beef. The broth had a strong, decent seafood flavor. Fried Spanish Squid (3/5): This wasn't on the menu, but I was excited they could make it since I'd seen photos from 7 months ago. However, it was baby squid rather than the body of the squid. It also felt a bit overcooked, lacking that fresh, chewy texture

Established in 1969 on the site of the former Bicycle Club, Giovanni's Bicycle Club features irresistible flavors of Italian cuisine from family recipes using the finest ingredients. The reservation was easily made via OpenTable but was not necessary on a Sunday. Upon entering this two-story building, my partner and I were greeted by the host, and a few patrons were enjoying their meal on two enclosed outside patio decks with fans in the summer, so we joined them.

Although ordering in Korean would be the easiest, I believe they can be foreigner friendly with patience. The food was spectacular! Fried fish is not as prevalent in American culture, but is a deep comfort food for many Koreans and asians. You can taste the freshness and the fact that they dont overly grease their fish. Seasoning is just right, not too sweet not too bland, and providing lemon to add a refreshing taste was amazing. Their side dishes were spectacular as well. My only gripe would be that they dont provide enough side dishes compared to the amount of fish I ordered. If you are looking for a comfort food or maybe you are looking to try something different, I highly recommend Oh Gui for your next meal. Just pack a few mints if you come here for lunch!

There as one older waitresses in particular, whose name I did not catch, but she was exceptional in her service -- to not just our section, but to everyone. She seemed to understand well how to cater to the restaurant patrons, taking into consideration that we were grieving a loss of a family member/friend. The food was excellent. The "banchan" side dishes were fresh and savory with continuous refills. They provided us with appetizer of the two types of "jeon"s - when was seafood and one was kimchi. I ordered the super sized "galbi tang" (갈비탕 - Short Rib Soup). I say "super sized" as it's quite larger in quantity than any I have ever had in any restaurant! . They had already pre-sorted the meat from the bones which usually are included in this particular dish. The amount of meat was incredibly abundant and absolutely savory and soft to chew. The meal was so big that I packed most of it to go and it sealed up almost to the top of a quart container! Other guests tried the "oohguhgi galbi tang" (Short Rib Cabbage Soup - 우거지 갈비탕) and "bibimbap" (Mixed Rice with root vegetables - 비빔밥) which looked delicious and ample in quantity as well. The restaurant is located off-shot from Lemoine Avenue In Fort Lee (soon after you cross Main Street) and turn into their driveway right before Charim Restaurant/Paris Baguette Cafe. Parking is plenty for free and the entrance has stairs and ramps for wheelchair/walkers. The bathroom is to your left as soon as you enter the restaurant. The ambiance is elegant and clean. Service is prompt and courteous (with exception to one younger waitress who was a bit curt and ignore requests but the older waitress I mentioned prior really saved the day! ). The managers were professional and helpful in directing the guests to the right places. Overall experience in food and service was 4.8/5.0. Q Grill was recently named top 10 KBBQ spots in NJ/NY. Will definitely visit and enjoy their other menu selections!

It's a small shop with few seatings and tables. It's street parking for the most part. Once inside i can tell that it was authentic Korean restaurant as there were other korean customers and all the signs and decorations were in Korean language. The owner came out and took our order We got a spicy octopus plate, soy marinated crabs, and scallion pancakes. They offer side dishes first which is a common practice in Korean restaurants. The side dishes were all flavorful and looked like home made pickled veggies and kimchis. Scallion pancakes had lots of seafood and was tasty. Spicy octopus plate was ok a stone plate and its got nice char and crispy rice at the bottom with spicy and sweet octopus. The soy marinated crabs were flavorful but was difficult and messy to eat because the you have to de shell the crab and doesn't have a lot of meat. The owner also gave us egg dish complimentary which was a nice gesture. It was kind of like an omelet. Service was good and owner was nice. Overall it seems like a good authentic Korean restaurant in the area. Was not too crazy about the soy marinated crabs but i'm sure it's of standard. I'm glad i got to try the dish though. Good place to go if you like soy marinated crabs.
