50 Best American Restaurants near Morris Plains

“Celebrated my moms birthday at Tabor Tavern today. The food was amazing & the atmosphere is gorgeous in the fall, but what was spectacular was our server Dianne. There were 7 of us in our party including a 3 year old and she anticipated our needs every step of the meal. We would recommend going here for a date night, family dinner, celebration, holiday party etc.“

“Brandon was one of the best bartenders we've had . He was courteous and very attentive to our needs , and gave of great service. I give him five stars !“

“Excellent steak at a reasonable price. Good bar for a pre dinner drink. Very good service with a friendly staff. A little loud at times to carry on a conversation but that all lends itself to its lively atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend Arthur’s and will be back.“

“Absolutely outstanding, and the food, staff, and everything are 100% flawless and delicious... Especially the ribs, homemade potato chips, salads, coleslaw, buffalo wings, burgers, desserts, craft beers, etc... And the manager, Alex, along with Nicole, and Kattya, are always super friendly, courteous, accommodating, and highly attentive. We seem to be treated like royalty here. We've never had a bad meal and/or experience here. Oh yeah, and the outdoor seating is awesome as well, as the warmer weather approaches! Enthusiastically recommended to all. 5-stars and A+++++“

“I was truly surprised by the food! Very beautiful, colorful, fresh looking food. It was also delicious. Great service. The only complaint is the wait time. There were tables available but not allowing us to be seated. Some customers were seated before us (they came after us), which upset me a bit.
I'm not one to take photos, so there aren't any.“

Muscles, tuna tartare, noodle flush, brussel sprouts, calamari salad, and more! All yum! Would absolutely go there again. We had 8-10 people and the service was excellent.“

“New Providence Bar and Kitchen was the perfect place for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We came for lunch and immediately the staff made us feel very welcome. The menu, from the drinks to the entrees, put a fun spin on familiar dishes—just enough to be unique without deviating too much from traditional favorites. The calamari appetizer with chili peppers and capers was the best I’ve ever had— flavors were amazing. The Parmesan-crusted salmon was also tasty and my wife loved her meal too. A wonderful experience!“

“Good food and good service“

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize our waitress Bea for the outstanding service she provided. She was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. She anticipated our needs, made excellent recommendations, and handled everything with professionalism and a positive attitude. Bea’s attention to detail and warm personality made our dining experience truly enjoyable. It’s clear she takes pride in her work, and her exceptional customer service deserves to be recognized and appreciated. The manager Alanah came by as well to make sure everything tasted good and asked about our day. Great place to eat and chill at.“

“We greatly enjoyed New Year’s Eve! The hospitality was flowing, staff exceptional, food delicious, the band rocked, really, really nice folks. Looking forward to returning. Thank you“

“We had such an amazing experience at The Second Half on Main this weekend. We called for a reservation for 7 people on a Saturday night, and they were beyond accommodating. They took us in just 30 minutes before closing and never once made us feel rushed, which honestly says a lot because most places start stacking chairs and spiritually evicting you the second the clock hits closing time.

The food was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We ordered French onion soups, a Caesar salad for the table, calamari, and everyone got different entrees and drinks. Every single thing was delicious. Not one complaint from anyone at the table, which for a group of humans is basically a statistical miracle.

Our waiter Mike, aka “Buckets,” was incredible the entire night. He never stopped moving, stayed on top of everything, and still made time to go around wishing other tables a Happy Mother’s Day, which was genuinely very sweet to see. You could tell he was working his ass off, but he never stopped smiling and made the whole experience even better. Another gentleman helping him named Matt was also fantastic and super attentive.

We will 100% be back and honestly cannot wait to see everyone again. We’re even considering using them for our friend’s bridal shower this winter because the service, atmosphere, and food were all that good. Highly recommend!“

“They handled our son's graduation party and we heard nothing but great things from our guests. Quick setup before and the food selections were all fresh and outstanding. Would absolutely recommend them!“

“We held my mother and her twin brother’s 75th birthday in the Patio Room on Friday evening. Everything was perfect. The food was wonderful. Everyone was stuffed! My favorite was the shrimp and scallops, my husband’s couldn’t get enough of the prime rib! Jonathan and his team took such great care of us. He was so attentive. I have no idea how he remembered what everyone was drinking because we were getting up and mingling, but he managed to make sure everyone had a drink in their hand. Being next to the pizza oven when it was below freezing made it so cozy! I would absolutely recommend Cinders; a great time was had by all.“

“The food is always consistent! Best pub around!“

“One of my favorite local spots to grab food or watch the game. Family and Dog friendly as well. They have an awesome beer selection, consistently good food, and a friendly staff that always makes you feel welcome. I always get the power salad with steak and it never disappoints. Definitely a place I keep coming back to and recommend“

“What a cool place! Tons of food options to choose from. Took me a while to place my first order not having ever been here before so I made sure to take home plenty of take out menus for my next order. The atmosphere was very inviting and welcoming. Can’t wait to try all the different items“

“I never ever ever ever feel obliged to review restaurants. There are hundreds of reviews that speak and echo anything I would say about the delicious meal I enjoyed. But what is compelling me to post this was truly the regarding the service I received here. It brought me to tears!!! Patricio and Dylan were the most considerate, kind, attentive and understanding waiters I have ever met in my entire life. After dining in the tri-state area my whole life, exploring cities like Chicago and LA through food, I’ve been conditioned and numb to lackluster waitstaff and typically take the approach of trying just to avoid them spitting in my food, but Patricio and Dylan completely floored me in their attention to detail, knowledge, and service that showed me exactly what good waiters could be. Living with GI issues and intolerances, I consistently feel like an inconvenience at restaurants and that the entire responsibility of making sure I don’t fall ill after dining is based on how I modify the menu and pick around my plate. EXCEPT here at Rails with Patricio and Dylan, I had the first care-free dining experience in my life, their thoughtfulness allowed me to be truly present with my family, enjoy the wonderful food being served, and just live in the moment, which is so important to me. Dylan was explicit in the detail of every dish and always helped me navigate what was coming around and being served. Now, back to the tears, when I subtly mentioned in passing to Patricio that I couldn’t eat dairy and couldn’t partake in the birthday cake, he brought me a delicious sorbet flight, unprompted, just so that I could feel a part of the festivities. I can’t wait to go back to Rails to see my friends again. - Emily R. Sartori“

“Food as always amazing twice in 1 week I am a fan“

“My sisters and I dined at The Grain House recently. The food was delicious, crafted with expertise and creativity. Hats off to Chef John!“

“those Rhode Island Wild Goose oysters were superb!“

“We stopped here on the way home from MA to PA because I searched for an added stop in Google. We weren't sure about it at first because the parking lot only had a few cars , but then again, it was 2:15pm.
We were greeted warmly by Tony and one other gentleman and seated in a comfortable booth. Our server, Tony, was friendly, helpful , and obviously cares about their customers happiness with their service.
There was a great variety of food available on the menu, and the prices were very reasonable for the portion sizes. In addition, music was quietly playing in the background
I highly recommend this diner if you are passing through the area .“

“My son and I had a nice meal this evening after a tough lax loss. Good was very good. Nice to be back in Morristown. Thanks you for providing a nice experience. Our server was excellent!“

“Great bonding with fam while enjoying our bubble tea!“

“My husband and I went for my birthday lunch. The food was excellant and so were the drinks! We could not have asked for a more polite and accommodating waiter“

“The Tavern was able to host our post-funeral luncheon on just a few days notice. While they don’t have a private room their space was nicely laid out to accommodate our party of around thirty. We chose a limited menu and everything was very good with the pot roast beef getting especially high marks. Special thanks to Carol and her hard working staff who made this event stress free for my family.“

“Had a great experience with Davidovich Bagel Cafe. This is exactly what you want from a local bagel spot—fresh, high-quality bagels with that perfect texture and flavor.

I got the sausage, egg, and cheese bagel, and it was excellent—simple, classic, and done right. You can tell everything is made with care, and the consistency really stands out.

The staff are friendly and efficient, and everything feels very well-run. The owner was also a pleasure to talk to, which added to the whole experience. The art on the wall adds a nice touch to the atmosphere and gives the place extra character. It has that classic neighborhood feel with lots of regulars coming in, which says a lot.

If you’re looking for one of the best bagel spots in Madison NJ or the surrounding area, this is definitely worth checking out“

“We have been coming here for years! Love the service, the food and the ambiance ♥️“

“Our waitress Kashia was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, and always had a smile! She helped us navigate the menu and answered all questions! We enjoyed the Munchie Mania options! Friendly’s restaurants are few and far between and we would definitely recommend this location!“

“Great Sunday Buffet. Tons of food choices plus a Bloody Mary, mimosa or screwdriver. At a great price?“

“Great hotel. Great service and atmosphere“

“I love my job!! Our food is fresh, healthy, and AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS 😋 stop by for a wrap, salad, baja and or greek bowl, or create your own entree!!“

“NOTHING... The service was horrible and the wait time incredibly long. Then on top of all that they AUTOMATICALLY added a 20% gratuity to our bill and when the bill came there was a space to add a gratuity... so if you don't look at your bill and just add the gratuity you got RIPPED OFF“

“We dine out several times a week and try many new places, but we keep coming back here, and for very good reason. Delicious flavors, each dish is a treat for your taste buds. The presentation is impeccable, and the service unmatched! A truly family owned and run restaurant. Their passion and dedication to their craft really shines through. Not just amazing restaurateurs, but great people!“

“It is good the food is delicious. They are helpful . When they come out with the food, it is warm . They are the nicest people you could meet. They are welcoming with open arms. Me and my friends always go there.“

“Amazing meal ~ every time! Seasonal menu built to *wow* your pallet and a kitchen staff that is magical. All fresh and sourced locally. The grilled pineapple burrata app is heavenly!The PEI muscles are the freshest I’ve had. Salmon Club is huge portion! The polenta fries are sooo unique. BYOB (&) they’ve started to offer local wines. Tried the Coffee Cab Franc ~ perfect complement to the meal. Toasted Coconut Latte & Strawberry Tres Leches to end the meal (again deliciously unique). Sooooo, sooooo good!“
