Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Hackensack

We had a lovely afternoon. Our server was exceptionally friendly and informative and gave wonderful recommendations. We really enjoyed our time and the food and desserts were delicious.

Roberto's is one of the best Italian restaurants in NYC and certainly the best in the Arthur Ave. area.

Wow. This may have been one of the best meals of my life… seriously. We had the tasting menu. And we love tasting menus - have had them all over the world and this rivaled a Michelin star restaurant in Rome (Imago - definitely check it out). Service impeccable. We had a 7pm show to attend and I asked ahead of time (on Open Table) if with a 5pm res (when they opened), could we make the show without a problem? And - they were totally on board - waitstaff were efficient, informative and friendly. Almost everything was on skewers, and I found out the next day (talking to a Korean friend about this gem) that “kochi” is Korean for “skewer!” Standouts were the beef (skirt steak I think) and the octopus but nothing tasted less than excellent.

The food and service are perfection! If you want a quiet place to go and talk - this is not the plane. Very loud! But worth the loudness for the food!

The food was absolutely fantastic and so was the ambience. Service was a little bit forgetful for nonalcoholic beverages, as well as coming to take and deliver the check… We were very uncomfortable with the photographer coming around who kept insisting on taking our picture even though we said we didn't want to. And then, when we finally agreed, he came back and tried to sell us framed images. It felt very invasive of our dining experience and I would highly recommend Preserving something like that for when there is a club night or something that is not a family trying to enjoy their meal out.
