This is the only restaurant we truly enjoy at Garden State Mall. It was my first time trying something different from my usual favorite, the California Club Pizza. This time I ordered the Mexican Street Corn and The Wedge salad to start — both were a good size and very tasty.
For my main course, I had a burger that completely met my expectations. My husband, as always, ordered the Chicken Piccata, which never disappoints. Great service, reasonable prices, and consistently good food — we’ll definitely keep coming back

Guys, great job – food wise: delicious, service wise: excellent (Thanks Lexi!). The manager brought my kids sundays ice cream! What a service.
Will definitely be back.
GREAT JOB, THANK YOU!

We enjoy bringing the family to this location. The food and service is always solid. Shout out to Priscilla for honoring an expired gift card on Valentines Day. Going above and beyond is why we keep coming back!

I recently dined at this place and had a fantastic experience! I ordered the Thai Salad with avocado instead of meat, a veggie pizza, and pasta. The flavors were spot-on, with the perfect blend of freshness and seasoning; I’d rate the taste a solid 8.5/10. The service was excellent, with attentive staff who made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a delightful meal, and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a satisfying meal with great service.

I came here tonight for an early lunch/dinner with friends. I ordered the steakhouse salad half size, which had an excellent dressing and was a nice salad overall. However, it had barely any steak, just three pieces, which for a salad supposed to be centered around steak does not meet that threshold. If they had added more steak, I would have made the review higher. The pizza was good and had a crunchy and airy crust, and our server Andres was kind and attentive. Overall, I’d come back again, but with some changes to my order.

Ate here for the first time, it was so good! The Thai chicken pizza is something I would never think of and it was AMAZING! Our waiter Gus was great too!

We love the food. The atmosphere is great. Always excited to try the new food items. But the real draw is the SERVICE. Peggy is amazing. She works hard to ensure that we are having the best possible experience! We absolutely love her.

This was an extremely disappointing experience with very poor customer service from both staff and management.
There were four of us. One person ordered a personal pizza to go, while the other three planned to sit at the bar and order drinks. When the pizza was ready, he walked over to the bar to eat while we ordered. He was immediately told—very rudely—that he was not allowed to eat the pizza because it was ordered as takeout.
We politely asked if we could move to a table so he could eat his pizza while it was hot. The staff was completely uncooperative and said no, without offering any alternatives or solutions. No options were given at all. As a result, that person—who had already paid for food from this restaurant—had to leave and eat somewhere else because he was hungry, while the rest of us stayed behind. This alone ruined the experience for our group.
When we asked to speak to the manager, hoping to resolve the situation, the conversation was just as frustrating. The manager asked, “So what would you want me to do for you?” When we turned the question back and asked what he could do to help or improve the situation, his response was essentially that he was “just there to listen.” No solutions, no alternatives, no effort to turn the experience around.
That is unacceptable. A manager’s role is to lead, resolve issues, and improve the guest experience—not stand by passively with no ideas or accountability. At no point did he attempt to help, accommodate, or even acknowledge how poorly the situation was handled.
To make things worse, another waiter later told us that eating at a table would have been allowed as long as we had plates. If that was an option, why was it never presented to us? The lack of communication, consistency, and basic problem-solving was shocking.
Overall, the staff was rude, dismissive, and unwilling to work with us, and the manager was completely ineffective. What should have been a simple visit turned into a frustrating and disappointing experience. We left feeling unheard and unwelcome and will not be returning.

Great place to chill and unwind. The pizza is different from your ordinary pizzeria, and the drinks are amazing. The bartenders always have great personalities that make you want to come back again. Reason reasons I would want to come back to California pizza at Paramus is mainly because of my girls behind the bar Jenna ,Peggy ,Angel, Lexi and clarisa !!

We were allowed in with our extra-small 8-lb dog only on the strict condition that we would not put her down and would keep her in our arms at all times. The manager came over and reiterated that she could either stay on the floor or in our arms.
While we were eating, I politely asked for a small bowl of water for my dog. I was told this was not allowed. The server kindly checked with the manager again, came back, and apologized several times, but explained that the manager had clearly refused.
I can understand not allowing dogs on the chairs or seating. Not all pets are as well-trained, and some guests may feel uncomfortable. I fully respect that.
However, I genuinely cannot understand the refusal to provide a small bowl of water for a living being. The food and overall hygiene were very good, but denying water to a dog unfortunately outweighs those positives for me.
