Friend visiting from out of town? Bring him/her to NGBo for the ultimate Chinatown experience. NGB is known for its soup dumplings, which are made fresh to order, right in the window, and SO good. They are like dumplings with a little bit of soup inside. You put one on a ladel, pop it open, add ginger sauce, and enjoy. I haven't enjoyed my other dishes (moo shu chicken, a couple others) as much as the soup dumplings, but they alone make the place worth the trip. Check it out!!

The Waterwheel, on Route 59 near Shoprite, is a classic family spot. Very good food, very large quantities, and a very relaxed atmosphere all contribute to its success. My personal favorite dish is the chicken parmigina, but my dining partners have enjoyed a wide array of dishes.
In addition, the Waterwheel makes some of the best pancakes in the area. Thin and tasty, they fill you up but don't overwhelm. HIGHLY reccomended for couples and families alike.

Sutter's is a very well known place in Suffern, NY. Perhaps it is best known for its wings, which are offered for $ .15 on Tuesday nights. They also have great Mexican nights and other themes (softball teams, etc) that make the place a great value.
However, the value is not the only reason to come to Sutter's. When I am in the mood for it, nothing beats an order of wings and cheese fries. Get the sauce on top and on the side- you will thank me. The wings aren't the biggest, but the sauce more than makes up for it.
I have never been able to tear myself away from my staple, but I hav heard great things about their burgers and also about some other items- I have tried and liked, believe it or not, the spinach salad with warm balsamic dressing. It may not fit with the rest of what I reccomend, but it is also a great dish.

Da Vinci's, on Route 45 in Chestnut Ridge, is another great choice for casual Italian in Rockland. There is a restaurant, which is quite casual, and a pizza place, which is supremly casual, located next to each other.
At the restaurant, I HIGHLY reccomend the chicken parm. It is very light, very tasty, and VERY, very good.
The pizza is also great, although I have not enjoyed it as take out as much as I enjoy it when I eat in the location (perhaps it is a mental thing!). They often have a lot of variety, including baked ziti pizza and sicilian.

Three Boys from Italy, a small restaurant on Route 59, has BY FAR the best chicken parm in Rockland. I have been eating there for years- and, while it is not 100% consistent, when it is on (which is almost always), it is great. The pizza is also exceptional.
The only drawback to the chicken parm is the salad is just okay, and VERY basic, and the bread leaves a lot to be desired. The pasta (choice of spaghetti or penne) is great, and the chicken parm makes up for any other letdowns.
Also check out: pizza, baked ziti
