We haven't been to the The Pluckemin Inn in a while, I forgot how nice it was and how much I enjoy dining there. We will be back.

This is a cherished restaurant for us on special occasions. This time was good but not as spectacular as in the past - no one pulled out my chair for me, the menu is a little less robust and I wish they would offer some gluten free bread. (Yes I know the kitchen will cross contaminate and they cannot guarantee the food is GF) That said Luis was a great server, the food was delicious and the wine list is a work of art. (So is the wine cellar)
Alex
Had a fantastic experience and great service. Beautiful historic feel and wonderful ambiance. Will be sure to make it back soon!
Chris
Amazing but unobtrusive service. Great wine list. Knowledgeable and engaging sommelier. We will return every time we're in the area
Kevin
This is always one of my favorite places to dine! The staff is so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The food is always good, and the evolving, seasonal menu keeps things fresh. The sommelier Sean is also the best! He's a treasure trove of knowledge and a perennial delight. A big thank you to everyone for helping us celebrate Dash's 17th Birthday, too ☺️. Cheers!

My salmon confit salad with fingerling potatoes was salmon from a can with sliced potatoes. I didn't need to spend $25 for that. Very different than the exceptional ambiance and creative drink menu.
Alexander
The restaurant is consistent and breath of fresh air when it comes to service. We had the Plucky Burger which was good......but for price the bun needs to be elevated and fries a bit more interesting. Will return - again, service was very good. Thank you.
Eric
Ate in the bar area, so you should expect it to be more lively. Food and drink were great. Particularly enjoyed the Cider Margarita for autumn.

Booked a weeknight early dinner for 2 to celebrate our anniversary. Our request to move up our reservation to an earlier dinner seating was easily accommodated by staff & much appreciated. The wine list is extensive here & our server allowed me to sample a taste before ordering by the glass. We had excellent service throughout the evening with Yannira and our meal was delicious & v satisfying. Ordered a butter lettuce salad to share, cauliflower gratinee, barramundi & flat iron steak entrees, and a pineapple rum dessert - all absolutely wonderful. We were happy to have celebrated our anniversary here in an intimate, quiet setting. The dessert chef prepared a special brownie dessert for us - Thank you & we will certainly be back soon. A truly memorable dining experience- Highly recommend this NJ restaurant to other diners! Easy parking.

Service was excellent! The majority of my meal was very good including the gnochetta,black cod and barramundi. the tartare chunks were more chewy than I expected. Also the desserts were tasty but a bit dry, (rum baba and plucky cake) but the brownie was delicious.
We held our wedding reception at Pluckemin Inn years ago (wifey's perfect choice), and we return every year to celebrate our anniversary. GET THE PUMPKIN OPERA CAKE with cream cheese mousse, pumpkin custard, candied almond, pumpkin ice cream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been to the Pluckemin Inn many times and it is one of my favorites. This time I had a bit of a disappointment. As soon as we were seated, the waiter began rushing us to place our orders because there was an event going on upstairs. As far as I'm concerned, I don't care if an event is going on upstairs and the restaurant's staffing requirements are not my problem. Other than that, the experience was great.

Our go-to restaurant when meeting friends and associates. Our favorite table is next to the fireplace at the front of the restaurant, where we have been served by either Jay or Luis for many years. Their attentiveness is just right, and the food is consistently delicious.
