The food from this restuarant is so out of this world amazing, it cannot accurately be described with words. The portions are extremely generous and the prices are exceptionally reasonable.
Baumgart's is unlike any other Pan Asian restaurant in America, eschewing traditional "Chinese" fair, and absolutely perfecting every aspect of their cuisine. The amount of flavor and passion in every bite is not only savored, it is experienced.
I find myself pontificating at length about how delectable everything is after every single bite. It's as if every morsel is a new experience that needs to be described to anyone who will listen.
My number one recommendation is the Shanghai Wontons. You'd be remiss to order less than 2 of these per person. Every bite will leave you wanting more. The sauce that accompanies this dish has such a depth of flavor that it should be described with words like "brilliant", "perfect", or "awe-inspiring", because normal food words like "delicious" feel woefully inadequate.
If there's one place you ever decide to try in your life, I beg you to let it be Baumgart's in Ridgewood, NJ.
Delivered food last night during the horrible storm to fulfill an order I had placed earlier for another family. I never thought the food would be delivered but they understood the situation and fulfilled the order despite the terrible road conditions. I am so grateful. Food is always delicious and now I am forever a patron.
I went here with one of my girl friends for a quick bite before going to Creatively Yours. The waiter was not pushy and understood that we needed time to review the menu but, after a bit, it seemed as though he forgot about us- we had to call his attention to us. When he did come back he was attentive and brought our food out expeditiously.
I went back for a to go plate and although the kitchen was almost shut down, they prepared my order, with a smile and without protest. I'll be going back.
