    Loved it here! Kenny was super attentive. Calamari was SOME OF THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD! Sauce left much to be desired but the calamari itself was so crispy and soft, it didn't even need any sauce... just a bit lemon. MUST GET! Pizza was good, super thin. The steak was not for me. My boyfriend loved it but it is on the more buttery side.

    Blast from the past and not sure how many places are this authentic anymore. Went on a Monday before noon and there was no wait. French onion soup was a bit salty. The pizza is bar pie style and delicious. Order more than you think you'll need. It was great to finally come here.

    Tried the pizza, chicken parm and meatballs! Yum yum yum! Place is really cute has a lot of old charm. Thursday is trivia night so we had fun while dinning. Would go back and try more.

    Update to my prior review, which was for takeout. Our 1st experience dining in was fantastic. We dropped by for an early Sunday lunch at around 11:30am and, as we had expected, it was very quiet inside of this old school bar/restaurant. There were just 2 other diners sitting together and that was it. Our waitress, Colette, was awesome. She was super nice and attentive throughout our time here. We ordered a large regular/cheese thin crust pizza and a single open slice steak sandwich. The pizza was even BETTER than the first time that I came here for takeout, mainly because it was hot out of the oven and sooooooo fresh. There really isn't anything better than a super fresh pizza right out of the oven. As advertised, the pizza was very thin and crispy and, honestly, absolutely PERFECT. As good as a bar pie will ever get. The open slice steak sandwich was also GREAT! The steak was juicy, flavorful and tender. It came with a small salad and fries and I actually really enjoyed the small salad, which came with their house dressing. And the fries reminded me of Nathan's fries. Overall, this establishment is AWESOME. I'm sure it gets crowded during peak times on weekends, but if you're seeking a low-key, quiet environment at a restaurant that serves ridiculously good pizza, Lido's the perfect spot on weekend afternoons.

    We came here for some pizzas and were disappointed in the service and food. The servers all had attitude and sass, which was surprising. The pizzas were alright but very oily and not as crispy as we thought they would be.

    Gotta try the pizza!

    There's a reason this place is as old as the pay phone in the lobby! The dark mob style restaurant makes you feel like you're on the set of the sopranos. The open face steak sandwich is award winning and pretty sure won some award in 2025 again. It's been somewhere I've been coming with my family for years and it never fails, the bar pie is incredible as an app but the open face steak sandwich is where it's at. If you're in the area worth the try!

    After packing and loading up all the handcuffs and stuff from the 2025 NY-NJ Police Collectors Show Dave Cavaliere and I headed off to nearby Hackensack for a visit to the iconic Lido Restaurant. Lido, which has been around since 1956 still retains that nostalgic, old school, family owned bar & grill vintage vibe, even after being renovated in 2028. Famously known for their thinny thin pizza (8.1 on the Portnoy scale) and their legendary thinly sliced, open faced steak sandwiches, you know this was on my mind. I love throw back, divey, retro style joints and Lido's certainly fits that bill. Lido's small but full bar, leather booth seating, and vintage decor creates a warm, cozy, tight, and welcoming atmosphere, and the service was fast and friendly (thank you to our server, Madison). We ordered the small pie as an appetizer, and it met all expectations. Very thin and crispy crust, good sauce, no flop, and crunched in you mouth when taking a bite. Simple, but very tasty and satisfying. I could easily consume a whole pie myself. Next time I go back I probably will. Definitely a thumbs up ! It also went well with a couple of ice cold beers. The open face steak sandwich was also a hit. Thin slices of juicy, tender, flavorful steak over a thin slice of bread, and covered with a nice sized portion of perfectly fried french fries. It also came with a side of cole slaw, (you have a choice of soup, salad, or the slaw) which was so good it tasted like a dessert. Great stop, good food, you should give them a visit. The only negative is that parking in the area is difficult, but you can't have everything. 04/13/2025

    My wife and I are pizza lovers. So we enjoy trying out viral pizza. We decided to try Lido since it got an 8.1 rating by Barstool. However, we were very disappointed and did not believe this pizza deserved an 8.1. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great.

    White Pie

    The pizza here is really good, super thin crust and flavorful. The white pie is a must, cheesy and garlicky. The sliced steak sandwich is a must as well, we added the sautéed onions but that's optional. The steak was soft and flavorful, and the bread was good too. The sangria was really good too! Our server was nice and took care of us quickly. The restaurant does get crowded but service is fast. Can't wait to go back!

    Cheese pizza

    Thin crust pizza was so good, not greasy. Staff is nice. Would definitely come back here again.

    one slice of the cheese pizza - 15/10

    My family and I have been coming to Lido Restaurant for over 30 years. The sliced steak and cheese pizza are the absolute best. We recently celebrated my grandfather's 100th birthday there with a bunch for family/friends. Keven and his team were so lovely and helpful. The food was delicious, and we were well taken care of it. Whether your party is big or small you should plan to have a celebration there. The pricing was very reasonable, and everyone had a great time.

The red sauce and shredded parmesan cheese went well with the main and the side. The chicken parmesan is served with mixed vegetables. Substituting the veggies is not allowed, so I ordered a side of pasta for an upcharge. Although I enjoyed this meal, the minor drawback is the substitution policy. In my personal opinion, I feel that pasta is the ideal side dish for any CP entree. Vegetables should not the side dish unless I'm ordering chicken marsala or chicken francese. Otherwise, I was still satisfied with the food, service and overall ambiance of the restaurant.

The menu isn't massive, but they cover every category with extreme precision and do it really well. Seafood, pasta, veal, chicken, and all the classic appetizers you can think of from stuffed artichokes, zucchini blossoms, and house-made burrata. The ambiance is old-school Italian in the best way: timeless, romantic, and cozy. It works just as well for an intimate date night as it does for a small group dinner. Bonus points for being BYOB. We ordered the veal marsala and the seafood pomodoro. The veal was pounded to perfection and swimming in a ridiculously addictive sauce. The seafood pasta was cooked perfectly and loaded with fresh shrimp, clams, and mussels and you can taste the quality and care put in the food. Meals are served with a salad to start, and you can expect to spend around $35 per entrée, which feels more than fair for the quality. We were genuinely impressed and were treated with a lot of attention throughout the meal. The concept of the restaurant being run by two italian twins was honestly so sweet. Highly recommend if you're looking for classic Italian done right without trekking into the city.

We started with the stuffed mushrooms and fried calamari. The mushrooms were tender, savory, and packed with flavor, while the calamari was crispy, light, and not greasy at all. For salads, we enjoyed both the Caesar and Maggiano's salad. The Caesar was fresh and perfectly dressed, and the house salad offered a bright, refreshing balance to the meal. The entrees just kept getting better. The chicken piccata was buttery with a wonderful lemon flavor, and the chicken Marsala was rich and comforting with a delicious mushroom sauce. The shrimp scampi was loaded with garlic and cooked perfectly. But the real star of the night for me was the baked ziti with Italian sausage. The pasta was perfectly baked, the cheese was gooey and so satisfying, and the sausage added incredible flavor that had me going back for seconds. Dessert was the perfect ending. The tiramisu was light and creamy, the cheesecake was smooth and decadent, and the famous butter cake absolutely lived up to the hype with its warm, rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was fantastic. The music playing in the background was enjoyable without being overpowering. It set the mood perfectly while still allowing for easy conversation at the table. The restaurant was spotless, and the warm, dim lighting made the entire dining experience feel comfortable and inviting. A special shoutout to our waiter, Nino!! He was attentive without hovering, personable without being intrusive, and genuinely made our evening more enjoyable. We had great conversations with him throughout the meal, and at no point did we feel rushed. It's refreshing to enjoy a leisurely dinner where the staff makes you feel welcome rather than watching the clock. If you're looking for a place to enjoy a relaxed meal with family or friends, generous portions, excellent service, and food that's consistently delicious, Maggiano's is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back.

We refilled our own water and had to grab other stuff members to get extra plates and utensils. I was super annoyed to pay premium price only to experience a diner like service.

It wasn't tough and chewy and it had a nice char to it. It was a pretty large tentacle served with an arugula salad. The salad had a citrusy dressing on it which was refreshing. I really enjoyed the pizzas. We went with a white and a red pizza. THe white pizza was topped with fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, and black truffle oil.

We arrived right when they opened (perfect timing, especially with a snowstorm expected later that day), so the restaurant was still quiet. The space has a modern, upscale vibe that definitely feels suited for special occasions. It's located on a busy street, and while they do offer valet, we lucked out with free street parking since it was early. They offer a prix fixe brunch for $39 per person, which includes an appetizer, entrée, and dessert. It's a good way to experience the restaurant without committing to a full dinner price point--but be aware that quite a few items come with upcharges, and drinks are not included, so the bill can climb quickly. I do have a gluten allergy, and I was honestly surprised by how limited the gluten-free options were for a restaurant of this caliber. That said, I made it work: I started with a Bellini, had the sizzling slab of bacon as my appetizer, the recovery burger (no bun sub roasted potatoes as a side) as my main, and finished with the salted caramel gelato. Everything I had was enjoyable, but I would have appreciated more flexibility in the menu. The rest of the group (no dietary restrictions) had more variety to choose from and really enjoyed their meals, which is always a good sign. Service was attentive without being overbearing--likely helped by the fact that it wasn't too crowded yet--so we were able to relax and actually enjoy conversation, which made the celebration feel special. The restaurant also has a private back room that looks great for parties, plus a downstairs lounge area, which adds to its appeal as an event space. Overall, for me it's definitely more of a special occasion spot, and while the pricing is on the higher side for what you get, brunch feels like the best way to experience it. I'd come back again--but probably stick to brunch.
