Restaurants in Hackensack

Though ethos is typically used to describe a person's philosophy or character, its literal translation is "that which guides." Executive chef Dino Zagouraias lets traditional Greek recipes and fresh ingredients guide his cooking to craft delicious casual meals. Fresh fish is flown in on ice daily from all over the world to delight palates with flaky bronzini and royal dorado or equip unprepared fencers with a grilled, center-cut swordfish. The menu blends the rich flavors of the Mediterranean in dishes from stuffed grape leaves to imported Greek lima beans to grilled baby lamb chops. The pristine dining room embodies elegance with white furniture and tables accented with blue tablecloths and pillows.

Ethos Gallery's ladies' night offers half-priced drinks to all attending ladies on Sundays beginning at 8 p.m.

Dakshin Indian Bistro sets out a colorful, spicy spread of Indian cuisine. A vibrant red hue draws the eye to the red-onion chutney, and the chicken tikka masala and lamb vindaloo sauces paint a picture of flavor on a canvas of rice. The restaurant’s seasoned chef serves this smorgasbord on dinner plates, as well as on lunch buffet trays.
