What's good in Wayne?

[LJC]

Can anyone suggest a decent place in or around Wayne. I checked the NJ Zagats and all they list for Wayne is Cheesecake Factory.

I grew up in Wayne and it's been a while but one of my favorite places to eat was actually in Oakland - right next to Wayne - just up Rt 202 off of Hamburgh Tpk. I haven't been there in a few years because I live in California now but you may want to check it out.

Not far from Wayne and right off of 287 in Riverdale is Rosemary and Sage. We had dinner there a few weeks ago and it was terrific.

There is a new Spanish restaurant in Pompton Lakes on Wanaque Ave

called Villa Madrid...quite tasty especially their sauces, BYO and inexpensive

E & V's is right on the Wayne/Paterson border (just remember it's cash only). Good food, huge portions & very local atmosphere.

I've had decent meals at what used to be the French Hill Inn, now called Tavern 344 I believe. (we particularly like the atmosphere since it's usually not packed & you can linger a while).

If you like sushi, everyone seems to love Nori on Berdan Ave.. I have yet to go so I can't personlly comment.

Wayne is a culinary wasteland. Honestly, if it's in Wayne, avoid it...

Check out South City Prime steakhouse, just on the other side of the river from Hooters (Rt 23). According to their website, they are open for business.

I wound up taking them to Cheesecake. It's hard to belive that with so much business in the area there are not more options...

Try Lu Nello's. It moved from Totowa to Cedar Grove. The singing waiters are amusing and the food is amazing. I was very impressed. My first time I played it safe by ordering a pasta dish. It was incredible. The sauce was not watered down and the pasta was actually silky and not sticky and chewy. My second time, I ordered mostly specials. I would suggest everyone to order from the specials. It changes daily and the flavors were so wonderful!
