29 Best Cocktail Bars near Allendale

“Had a fantastic dinner at Allendale Social last Saturday. We especially enjoyed the Korean fried chicken and the heavenly miso cheesecake—both standout dishes.

The candlelit room created a beautiful atmosphere, and the live music added just the right touch.

A special shoutout to our server, Charles. Knowledgeable and friendly, he guided us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations and paced the evening perfectly.

Thank you—next time I’m in the area, we’ll absolutely be back.“

“Excellent ambiance, amazing drinks, and the best customer service !“

“Reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking“

“Have gone here many times and have not been disappointed. The food is excellent as well as the Service and drinks. Bring your friends and family for a great time and great food!!!“

“From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us like old friends and walked us right to our table — I instantly had a good feeling, and I was right. Our server was awesome — super friendly, knew the menu inside out, and was on top of everything all night.

The menu is classic Italian but with a twist — way more interesting than your standard North Jersey Italian spot. The ossobuco was fantastic (if I had to nitpick, I’d say the risotto could’ve used a touch less water and a heavier hand with the parm). The clams were fresh and baked to perfection, and my son devoured his ravioli. For dessert, the bread pudding was absolutely unreal — honestly worth the trip alone.

Safe to say we’ll be regulars!“

“Bareburger is one of the best places to eat out if you have Celiac, especially this location! The staff is always super friendly and accommodating, especially Kylie, who is a lovely server. I love their gluten free chicken tenders and the fact that their French fries have their own fryer! You also can't go wrong with their Classic Chix sandwich, which I substitute with grilled chicken and either a lettuce wrap or gluten free bun depending on my mood. They also have yummy ice cream and drinks! I highly recommend Bareburger because of their fresh, allergy-safe food and caring staff!“

“We have been going to Felinas since 2019. Chef Joe, Frank, and the entire staff make us feel like family. We have many personal and professional occasions celebrated there and will continue to do so. Thank you, Felina Ridgewood“

“I don’t know how I’ve managed to go this Long without writing a review for the Oak House but better late than never! I can’t say enough good things about this place! I’ve been coming to the Oak House regularly, pretty much since the day they opened! It immediately became my favorite spot, for several reasons, first and foremost of the food is phenomenal, literally every bite of every menu item is delicious. They have a beautiful and unique cocktail menu, and their bartenders are spectacular. On top of all of that, the vibes are immaculate. All of the staff is great, super friendly, and accommodating. Oak house is the perfect spot for a girls night out, date night, happy hour… or a solo date! Honestly all the things!!“

“Margaritas are the best. Beef burritos are great. Chips and salsa top notch“

“The food is very good. I love the appetizers and the Greek salad! When there’s music, the bands are great. The staff is very friendly and helpful.“

“Wait staff are attentive. Jing was helpful and able to attend to our request. Sushi is fresh and my mango martini was excellent“

“I just enjoyed a quick drink with a friend. We both had exactly 45 minutes to spare and it was magical. Thank you so much Alex and Ivan, we had the best time in the special environment you curated for us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.“

“When I want to go outside or I'm working and need to eat I always try to come here if there is no food at home. This place is amazing.

The food is just delicious, for all the plates I ate here never had this "okay" food it is always tasty and yummy. And the price is another plus, 10$ for a lunch meal, 1 entrance (mostlikely soup) 2nd (usually rice with either chicken or pork) and a cup of drink. (Not soda).

And even when buying other than "special lunch" it is quite heavenly.

Conclusion, it is a great place, amazing good, great service. Now, the only bad thing is the parking, if u eating in the morning I guess there is parking at papays since it is pretty close, but in the afternoon, quite dificult, since it is not recommended to park on popeyes.

Parking: Morning fine, afternoon is dificult to find a parking, without risking it and park at popeyes.

Kid-friendliness: They have this chair for kids. And can ask for little plates for them.

Wheelchair accessibility: Somewhat.“

“You guys are the best. Every time I come, you guys always welcome my family and I. We always have a great time. The food and wine are always perfect.“

“Went there for the first time today and it was amazing! Great service and food was delicious! They had large selection of margaritas and desserts. The decor and music was fantastic. Will definitely be back again!“

“Fun place on a weekend with live music and outdoor dining. Ordered a margarita burger one day for lunch and it had no basil and no marinated tomatoes. Just lettuce and sliced tomato with mozzarella / If the owner or manager is reading this - please don’t sell that hamburger without basil & marinated tomato because it just becomes a basic cheeseburger with mozzarella instead of American that’s costs more. I would’ve preferred the regular cheeseburger if I was aware the basil and marinated tomato were not available!“

“Gran experiencia el Día de la Madre en D’Carbón de Haledon. Excelente servicio! Los gestos y atenciones de las meseras realmente hacen la diferencia en una cena especial. Jhoselyn y el resto del equipo del restaurante son expectaculares en un día tan ocupado como fue el día de la madre. Esos momentos especiales en los que te sientes bien atendido y cuidado hacen que la comida sea aún más deliciosa. Se que tendré muchas más experiencias increíbles en De Carbón y seguiré disfrutando de la comida peruana junto a tu familia y amigos gracias al gran servicio! Gracias Jhoselyn por tus atenciones!“

“Excellent service, friendly staff, great food!“
