Very good but very expensive. Not too crazy about the fact that I only received 5 tuna “medallions” for my $44 entry. And my partners Old Fashioned” lacked the requisite sour cherry.

We had an excellent corner booth and nestled in for a delicious dinner on a cold January evening.

Great service last night. Food was just ok. Delicious Cesar salad and apple dessert. Entrees were ok. Filet mignon was overcooked and a bit tough. Not a $54 cut of meat. I usually get the burger which is great. Changed my mind at the last minute. We had an Open Table dining reward certificate to use last night. When we gave it to our server, we were told they no longer accept them. Has to be a Toast reward now. Disappointing since it came up as accepted when we made the reservation.

This was a bit of a disappointment. The main issues were the food (the shrimp and scallops were an oily mess, for example). The other issue was the ambiance. It's a nice restaurant on a Saturday night; the football game playing on screens at the bar detracted from that.

At these prices, bread should be served. Artichoke appetizer was canned artichokes - not too impressive.

Had lunch at Halcyon in Montclair and really enjoyed the crispy tofu bowl. The tofu had a great crunch, the rice was filling and everything felt fresh without being heavy. Portions were solid, service was friendly, and the space has a nice vibe. Would definitely order this again.

Absolutely in love with halcyon, the butter crab roll as well as the coconut shrimp roll are out of this world. I seriously dream about them.

I had lunch at Halcyon Montclair recently and it completely exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere is beautiful, but I was especially impressed how incredibly fresh and well-prepared the sushi was. The bar at Halcyon is also fantastic. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed lunch, a business meeting, or a midday drink. The wait time was surprisingly quick, even during the lunch hour. Everything came out promptly without feeling rushed, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for a great lunch restaurant in Montclair NJ with high-quality seafood, fresh sushi, and a welcoming bar, Halcyon Montclair is definitely worth the visit. The prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. I’ll be coming back soon!

While we were excited to dine for our first time, we were very much disappointed. The bar setting was and drinks were nice, we sat upstairs next to a large 50th birthday party that must've thrown off the kitchen as well as the servers. May give it a second chance we'll see
Halcyon never disappoints. It was my birthday last night, and this is my favorite place for absolutely any occasion. Every dish is simply delicious. You cannot go wrong coming here. The food, the ambience, and of course the service is always exceptional!!

Fantastic appetizers, awesome jazz, and great ambience. Entrees not great. I had the steak special and overcooked. Got attitude for swapping truffle fries for mashed potatoes. Ordered a dozen oysters and the artichoke and they were phenomenal. Spent most of my time looking for my waiter who wasn't very nice and didn't even wish my wife a happy birthday. Odd considering it was a $350 Tuesday night at 6:30 pm. Seating booths very dirty and corners covered in dust between the booths. Thank you for a fun night!

We went on the Sunday of Labor Day weekend. It was easy to get a table, the food was excellent, and we enjoyed some quiet in a place that is normally pretty noisy.

Exemplary dining experience. Our meals were excellent. I will need to look closer at the wine list to choose a wine next time.
