Peggy Rogan of Glen Rock always wanted to try Muscle Maker Grill on River Road in Fair Lawn, but never found the right opportunity. That is, until she became the lucky winner of District Dollars awarded by the River Road Improvement Corporation (RRIC) as part of a year-long promotion. Now that she has, Rogan has become a happy customer.

“I really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the hospitality,” she noted. Rogan likes to support local businesses and counts Davia Restaurant, Xpress Haircutters, TD Bank and ShopRite of Fair Lawn among her favorites in the River Road District. “Shopping and dining locally is a better alternative to stores and restaurants on the highways, so I am very happy to win the District Dollars.”

Founded in Colonia, Muscle Maker Grill features great-tasting food, freshly prepared with the guest’s health in mind. Muscle Maker Grill on River Road is owned by brothers Ehab and Tareq Sbeih, who welcomed Rogan’s gift certificates and her positive comments about the food and the friendly and relaxed ambiance. “People are looking for healthier dining experiences and our menu includes lots of great options including pasta, burgers, wraps, and entrée salads as well as fruit smoothies in a variety of assorted flavors, plus protein shakes and supplements,” Ehab Sbeih stated.

The RRIC will be announcing winners from online entries drawn in August on the River Road District’s website, FairLawnRiverRoad.com. Winners of River Road District Dollars gift certificates can redeem them for goods and services at participating River Road District business and restaurants. Additional winners have also been awarded gift certificates from other River Road District businesses including ShopRite of Fair Lawn, Empress Diner and The Flower Cart.
