Raymond's

Victor Suarez

Was in the neighborhood and wanted to try this place for myself after reading all the reviews. I ordered their Waffles and the presentation was lovely but it was cold. I ordered their Cappuccino and that was warm, not hot. For today i'm giving this fine looking establishment 2 stars. Will give them a 2nd chance and will come back to try another dish. To be continued..

Great place to have breakfast in Ridgewood. When walked in you immediately had the feel of an old time diner. It was decorated with charm and we were immediately greeted by a very polite and welcoming hostess. We were there on a Friday morning and sat immediately. Almost all of the tables were full but the service was fast and the food was amazing. We started with coffee, which was hot and flavorful. All three breakfasts were cooked to order. I had a custom omelet, my daughter Courtney, had the French Toast and her husband Mike had the Huevos Rancheros. All of the plates looked as good as they tasted. The service was excellent and no one tried to rush us out. I definitely recommend going to Raymond's it is worth the trip.

I went to Raymond's yesterday with a friend. She said they had good food. It's a cute place in a great small town. The staff was pleasant and very accommodating. The decor is top notch. I especially loved the faucet in the ladies room. The overall place has a nice nostalgic feel to it. I ordered a ginger ale, the kale salad and added grilled chicken, and a side of fries. Everything came out fast and delicious. Since my friend and I were in a rush (no fault of the restaurant) we asked for to go boxes right away in case we couldn't finish our meals. We received them. I couldn't believe how good everything was. My soda was bubbly. My salad was absolutely delicious and the fries were awesome. In fact the waitress said "good choice" when I added them to my order. Well my friend left before I did. I packed up my food, paid our bill on my card and tipped in cash (as I like to do). I said my good byes and left. I stopped to get icecream and started my 1hr drive home. My stomach started to bubble up within minutes. I immediately thought it was the dairy of the icecream. I barely make it home but I do. I put my left over in the refrigerator and allowed my body to rest. Later that night I make dinner. I only eat a portion as I remembered my stomach issues of earlier that day. My stomach was fine no more issues. I have a beverage. No issues with the meal, nor the drink. Today, I forgo breakfast. I'm working from home. I decide to have lunch, I pull out my kale salad from Raymond's. Two bites in my stomach starts to growl, twist and turn. It makes noises like yesterday. Something in the salad does not agree with me. It's such a shame because it was delicious. I have to trash the rest of my meal. I'm a foodie and a repeat customer. As much as I enjoyed Raymond's I can't possibly eat there again. I'm afraid of the same occurrence. I live too far away for bubbling insides. I will note that my friend did not have any issues with her meal. She had a caesar salad. She also ate a few of the fries. I have to narrow it down to my kale salad because of the reoccurrence of my upset stomach today. My leftovers was my 1st meal of the day in the late afternoon. Sigh.

This restaurant, which has all the ambience of a classic American diner, is a staple of Ridgewood known for their variety and consistently good food. The burger I had was nice and juicy, but didn’t have much more flavor than that. Not a bad …
