Family Restaurant and Craft Beer House. Famous for Our Thin Crust Pizza and Pots of Mussels. Pizza Night is every Tuesday!
Reviewed By executiveproducer
While visiting friends we decided to order an appetizer for take out. We agreed that mussels would be a great for our group. Someone recommended this Cafe so we ordered mild and spicy mussels. Not only did we receive an abundance of well prepared mussels, but the sauce alone was tasty and plentiful. Four of us ate the mussels and there was plenty for each of us. The cost was unbelievably low and the wait time was acceptable. I definitely recommend this cafe and look forward to ordering more mussels and other dishes from the Grant Street Cafe.

The space and service was great. The food though was average... overall lacking in flavor. We were there as part of a large party and the space and service they gave us was very nice. Music was a little too loud but that might not have been in the restaurants control as there was a DJ.Hi There, Thank you for your review! Our chefs are more than happy to adjust spice levels according to your taste buds. On your next visit, feel free to let the server know to make the dishes spicier! Thank you,Mantra

I came here with my teenagers for a Sunday lunch. There is such a wide variety of food items on the menu that we ordered mostly appetizers and split them all. Caesar salad was average but fresh and satisfying. Loaded fries with pulled pork was one of our favorites as was the garlic shrimp served with corn souffle. Either of those items could easily be a full meal. The blue cheese coleslaw, fresh pork rinds and homemade potato chips were ....meh. The buffalo wings were very good. Service was friendly, the restaurant , bar area and bathrooms were all very clean. Street parking is available and free.

4. The Iron Horse

Same location for 30 years--recently re-opened after a kitchen fire.
Reviewed By Ron G
Located across from a small town park in this charming Bergen County town, the Iron Horse is near the railroad station, thus it's name. The restaurant looks old, from its narrow two step walk up entrance, bead board walls, worn carpet and tin ceiling and aged tables and chairs. At some point, years ago, it looks as if they expanded into an adjacent store. This left several rooms at different levels, so you are walking up and down several small stairs. This may prove difficult for some and impossible for a wheel chair.On this early Friday evening, the place was mostly empty and we were seated immediately. The menu featured burgers stuffed with various cheeses, their specialty, we were told. Also were salads, sandwiches and some specials. Friday is Prime Rib and this is what I ordered, while my partner had the Chicken Salad Cheese melt served on English muffin, an unusual combination to say the least. Our meal started with Homemade Cole slaw and pickles, another house tradition. It proves fresh, tangy and homemade. My meal includes a Caesar Salad, baked potato with a generous amount of Sour Cream on the side and an ample cut of prime rib ( I ordered the smaller of the two sizes offered.) The rib was cooked as I requested and was good and the Chicken salad was large chicken chunks and obviously house made. The thick layer of melted cheddar, started off tasting good, but later became overwhelming and was removed. The Fries that accompanied the sanwich were also good. We were offered drinks from the bar, and there were a few interesting specials but we did not sample.The restaurant is an establishment that has grown with the town over the years and it can use a face lift. But the food is honest, homemade and good and a local favorite.Parking is on the street and usually available close by.

Food here is very good and portions are generous. Known for open face steak sandwich delicious. My other favorites are mussels in white sauce, all salads, Alfredo pasta and pizza is excellent. Nice place to hang outside in the summer. Only reason for four stars is inside needs to be updated.
