30 Best Wine Bars near Cranford

“I came here for my birthday. Had a great time with my friends during the wine tasting. Staff was friendly and helpful. The live music was nice and he sang happy birthday to me ☺️ I’ll definitely return as a regular customer. Their options were unique and interesting.“

“This is the first 5 Star restaurant we have found in NJ since moving in 1991 from Manhatten. Four of us went this past sunday evening. Everything was 5 star,including food; Niavh's (Irish name pronounced as Nieve) service; and the personable manager, Dave. Gorgeous wood and glass. Great Ambience. Easy to park. Could not be happier!“

“So glad I stopped in!! $39 for a full bottle of Malbec Red Wine!!! 🤯 If I was heading home, I'd have grabbed a bottle or two of the other wine offerings to go!! The prices are insanely good for wine and food! The arugula salad ($20) with tuna ($6) was delicious and had SO MUCH fresh avocado in it!!! Mauricio came by to clean up my plates quickly and offer me water! Ian was a fantastic waiter who had a contagious upbeat attitude and did a fun show of opening the wine and serving me in general!!!! Also, the cheesecake is sooo good!!!“

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.“

“Great wine different flights to sample. You can even buy bottles“

“Burley is absolutely amazing!!!!! 1. The ambiance of her establishment is such a vibe from the decor to her choice in music. 2. The charcuterie plates provide were fresh and delish ( not to mention she inquired about possible food allergies and dietary needs) which was a plus as my girlfriend and I do not eat meat. 3 this is experience surpasses your typical wine tasting IT IS INFORMATIVE! Baby when I say I learned so much about wine I was so oblivious to lol. I will definitely recommend this place and will be returning as soon as I can ☺️ Burley keep doing your thing queen“

“This place is awesome, Carteret is a very peaceful city this place provides distraction and fun for a while in the quietest city in all of New Jersey and I love that, I love my quiet city and some fun on a Friday night ♥️come to karaoke Thursdays ?☀️?“

“Went here tonight. Had a wonderful experience. Friendly staff, pretty good food, A+ drinks and ambience. Had the tuna tartare- think they can sauce up a little bit and hit with a " vehicle" ( tostada, etc), but overall, fine!! And surprisingly fresh for the area. Grilled Caesar- fantastic. Croquettes ( jamon) more my husbands thing but the sauce was good and I totally enjoyed ! Staff is sweet and super excited to have you. Ambiance is gorgeous. And honestly- food, room for improvement but definitely a major highlight of the area.

For those of you submitting bad reviews, shame on you. I have to take a guess and say 1.) you think you have taste because you lived in Murray Hill for a couple years, did a stint and Hoboken then made your way to the suburbs of Jersey. News flash, it's northern Jersey. You should be appreciative this place is putting an effort in to offer a more elegant experience than the harvest restaurants and chipotle around town. These people are trying, and we should be encouraging this type of development in our town as much as possible. OR 2.) you're so violently upset by the costing of tapas that you blow their whole rating on that, you aren't the target audience.

Congratulations to this team for working with what you got, elevating the suburban experience, bringing friendly, attentive service, good food, and giving us back a little local zest in " going out for dinner" . Will keep coming back!“

“Great place! Really liked the deli and pizza selection. The bar was great with large space.“

“Surprised I never popped in here sooner. If there is one word to describe this place it’s “cozy”, and on a cold Friday night it fit the bill perfectly. Guiness on tap major plus. The two man blues band was great, and the owner Chris was very welcoming, introducing himself. I will be back for another pint of my favorite stout, for sure, maybe grab a bite also next time. Recommended! Cheers 👍“

“if you like good food this is the place to go. We had a little bit of everything. Highly recommend the cheese and meat board and the gnocchi is amazing. The winner of the night was the tuna and don't skip dessert. We will come back.“

“Amazing! We had a WONDERFUL experience. Food was excellent, service was EXCEPTIONAL, ambience was great! I think we found our new "place!" Our server, Elizabeth (Liz) was AMAZING! LOVED her! She was on point with everything and also adorable! She definitely contributed to why we will return and have this Seasons 52 our new meeting spot.“

“Great food. Welcoming you from the door and checking on you throughout needs some work. Hostess wasn’t hospitable.“

“Me & Husband Love house 157. Our waitress Elijah is awesome . I always get the Rasta Pasta w. Grilled chicken . Hubbsz gets the lamb chops… love it here. Atmosphere and music amazing . Drinks also a hit.

Parking: Parking across the street at autozone.“

“Excellent - wonderful lunch menu with daily specials . Soups snd risottos are my favorites but the entrees are delicious and perfect amounts. The soufflés - from choc to mango - are to die for. Even the expressos are good.“

“The food was delicious but tHE DJ had the music so loud I was yelling just so my friend across the table could hear me and I lost my voice

Parking: The valet is very rude but they don't work for the restaurant I think“

“Went to Osfizio last weekend and it was great! The food was so good, the waiter, and all the staff were so nice and polite. There were food options for everyone. Willie was our waiter and he went above and beyond for our table. Will definitely be returning! 10/10“

“This spot is a hidden gem. I’ve been living in the area for about 15 years now and just randomly tried this place one day, and let me just say it not only exceeded my expectations but blew them out of the park. The food is absolutely delicious and the service is nothing short of simply the best. I would highkey recommend trying their freshly house made pizzas, they’re finger licking good as well as their pastas which are chefs kisses. I’m genuinely amazed at how not many people know about this restaurant. The owner is the sweetest woman I’ve ever met, we talked for 15 minutes just about her business it was 2 minutes before they closed and she offered me all of the left over pizza they hadn’t sold that day FOR FREE. I’ve found my new favorite go to Italian spot.“

“Love the delicious food 🥘“

“We had our daughter in-laws shower here ! They did a fabulous job! The food was outstanding as well as the service ! It was a perfect day ! Beautiful restaurant! Highly recommend!“

“Wide and varied selection of handhelds- burgers and sandwiches which come with fries that's golden crisp. Reuben Swiss on rye. Wonderfully melted cheese and succulent thin shaved brisket beef. Seated ahi tuna on arugula with sauce on the side was a bit plain.“

“If you’re looking for old school Italian, this is a great spot. They made it easy to schedule a work dinner for 9 people, and the service was quick and accurate. The Caesar salad was extremely tasty, as was my pasta dish, albeit a tad salty. The front bar area is also cozy and casual, so it’s a great place for an after work cocktail.

Parking: Close to a train station“

“First time for me and my boyfriend, went to celebrate his birthday and no regrets at all. One of the best meals, everything was perfect and tasty, Maiara our server was very sweet and helpful. Definitely going back.“

“ALWAYS a vibe whenever i pull up!“

“Great food and service in a very stylish restaurant…“

“Atmosphere, service and the food!!! How can you go wrong!!!“

“Great service every time I’ve been there“

“Took my girlfriend here the atmosphere was very welcoming and scenic, we both ordered the filet mignon and it came out delicious perfectly cooked the way I asked, also ordered their guacamole which was absolutely the best I've ever had they have their own original take on it. The service was excellent the manager personally came over to ask how the food was which definitely showed their professionalism. Overall a great date night spot and we will most definitely be returning“

“I go to this airport very frequently and this is one of my favorite bars. The bartenders are cool to talk to, very fun, straight forward, and are willing to help. The cellphone ordering is very cool and helpful for when the bartender has a full order. You can just get your order in and not have to wait to get their attention like at traditional bars. Ordering is like getting a delivery on Amazon, but much faster“

“Great atmosphere, friendly employees. Tried the avocado toast, they sprinkle crushed red pepper on the avocado and it gives it great flavor.“
