Brunch was delightful, with a terrific salmon Benedict, delicious honey cinnamon latte and attentive and gracious service. The waiter couldn’t have been friendlier and more welcoming. Will be back.

. Services was very slow. After being seated we waited 15 min for the server to come. Brought our drinks another 10 min later. Took our order snd unfortunately two of the items we wanted were not available. We waited about 45 min or longer for our meal. The food was good but expensive for the value as we were given much besides the entree. Overall we enjoyed eating there and would try dinner there. Server was friendly.

Mandatory buffet for Mother’s Day - $59 per adult and $19 per child. The “hot” food was cold and not good. Some customers left because it was so bad. The staff appeared to be brand new/never worked together. Juice was not included in the price, just coffee. Never have been so disappointed in a Ridgewood restaurant.

We saw the good reviews so we decided to go for Sunday brunch. When I walked in, I saw some great looking Eggs Benedict, which I love. No one came over to the table for about 15 minutes to take a drink order. When the water finally took our order, it took an extremely long time to get our food. My Eggs Benedict was cold. He forgot my nephew‘s side of bacon and my extra hollandaise sauce the omelettes were cold and since we had plans afterwards, we just ate the food and left.

HORRIBLE experience. We had a reservation for 3 people and when we got there, they gave our table to someone else and tried to seat all of us at a bistro style table meant for 2 people. We sat for 45 mins before offered anything to drink - let alone take our order. The dips were good but everything else was mediocre. They up charged me for a coffee “large” when it was the same size mug as my husbands who wasn’t up-charged. Apparently their menu is their “cash prices” - which it doesn’t say that anywhere btw, we found out when we got the check……. Horrible experience, we will never go back

If you are looking for Turkish food or want to try it, I highly recommend this casual cafe. Nothing fancy, just authentic Turkish food at affordable prices. The baklava was homemade and absolutely delicious.

I cannot say enough great things about our experience on Friday for lunch. Johnny was our server. He is amazing! He explained the new menu items in detail and was so attentive the whole time. The food delicious. We loved the appetizer flight. There was a lentil dip , pumpkin, tzatziki, hummus. So yummy! I had avocado toast and my cousin had the falafel wrap. The whole staff came out to sing Happy Birthday. We will continue dining at Ridgewood Station Cafe because it is the best!
