“We went today for our anniversary the food was really good and prices were fair!! The staff was outstanding very attentive we will be back!!“

“We had such a great experience celebrating at Agricola. The staff really paid special attention to our special day. Most impressive, our server Milana. Halfway though a dirty martini, Milana brought over a fresh frosted glass to ensure the rest of the drink was chilled and delicious. What a professional and thoughtful move. The whole team was wonderful.“

“One of our favorite local spots. Perfect for outdoor dining during nice summer weather. Their menu has a lot to pick from and everything we’ve gotten has been delicious. Highly recommended.“

“Too bad I live out of state because this is my FAVORITE restaurant in NJ. Wonderful staff and food. Not as noisy as other places because of the decor/layout. The prices seem a little high but when you can't even finish your food - that's a good deal. The menu is phenomenal. If you can't find something to eat here then you are insane.“

“Esquisita deliciosa y buen servicio Selos recomiendo“

“We took our 3yo and 7yo boys here for lunch today and everything was fab - super cute decor, oldies playing, a couple of the games for the kids to play while we waited for our food. The guys working (I think maybe the owners?) had such nice energy and could not have been warmer or more welcoming. The boys were excited to play an old-fashioned roulette style game with the owner, and they each got to pick a little prize. I love details like that - when kids feel like they belong somewhere, it’s just a better experience for everyone! And the food! My husband ordered the double Doo Wop burger and I ordered a single Greek burger and both were delicious! We also split disco fries - I thought they were great and better than diner disco fries because they weren’t as salty. Our sons both got a kids grilled cheese which they devoured - our 7yo said the whole experience was “10/10” and that it was the “awesomest place ever!” They are already asking when we can go back with their older sister - and we WILL be back to try the ice cream!“

“What a great and welcoming place Tom & Dor have been getting the formula right coming from decades at Stirling Hotel! Great place, great environment, great food!“

“Overall, a good restaurant and we would definitely come back. I started with a dirty martini — would not recommend. The olives were hard, and the drink had small ice chips in it, which made for a less-than-enjoyable experience. I ended up switching to red wine, which was delicious and much better. For appetizers, we had the octopus — very flavorful! While the octopus was a bit chewy, the taste was excellent. The oysters were outstanding — I honestly wanted more and more of them. For the main course, we both had the filet mignon, which was cooked perfectly and paired with chimichurri sauce — a perfect match. The mashed potatoes were some of the best we've ever had. On the other hand, skip the creamed spinach — it lacked flavor and was quite bland. We finished with the carrot cake. The portion is huge, and while it was okay, it wasn't anything special. Overall, it's a great spot. We'll definitely be back, just with a few different menu choices next time.“

“is becoming a favorite of mine.“

“We have Alexander as our server and he was so pleasant and helpful. The food was served at a reasonable time and great pricing for what we ordered. The lava cake was 10/10. I noticed the restaurant itself is very clean which I truly appreciate. They were also decorated for the holidays which was nice to see!“

“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!“

“Burger's & Texas Weiner's are good!!“

“Definitely Lakeside dining at its finest! 🌊✨ From crispy, made-in-house buffalo wings to savory empanadas, the diverse menu is packed with fresh flavors you’ll love. I chose to indulge in the surf & turf skirt steak with garlic butter shrimp, and I ordered a light refreshing salmon, berry, and goat cheese salad. Paired my meal with a fresh OJ, creamy matcha latte with oat milk, vibrant hibiscus Paloma with a Tajín rim. Savor the lakeside vibes at Indian Lake Bistro—where nothing’s frozen, and everything’s delicious!“

“You going to get a consistent meal at the Lantern. I usually will order ahead and pick up through the drive through. Today, we ate in, and can I just say the staff was amazing. Queen DD was so sweet and the gentleman whose name I forgot to ask, but assume is management of some sort, was SO KIND. Absolutely fantastic experience with them today. Thank you so much for your patience and kindness towards us! Yall made my little girl’s day with that itty bitty ice cream cone.“

“My husband and I stumbled upon this place while looking for a place to eat that had an outdoor area( so glad we did) Once there ,we reviewed the menu , I explained to our waiter Cody that I am a pescatarian. He immediately recommended a few dishes that were not on the menu. I decided to go with one of his recommendation, the blackened shrimp tacos. They were delicious!! My husband had the blackened California wrap, which he raved about. Our waiter Cody even took the time to give us a bit of
history of the restaurant. If you are ever in the Denville area looking for a place to eat, do yourself a favor and check this place out! Make sure you ask for Cody to be your waiter!“

“I had the most amazing breakfast with my daughter there, and then I went back for a burger after work one night and it was incredible. Medium rare, delicious and yummy fries with got brown gravy on the side for Dippin.

Same wonderful older gentleman working therr who is so pleasant,“

“I went there for Amazon return. It’s just right next to #1 cashier, and the return process was quick and easy no label or box needed. Whole Foods market was huge and nice selection of produce and products available and convenient to go another shopping place like Loft and Talbot. Only concern was Google map guided me to middle of hwy 46 not the exact store. Be careful!“

“The service is great and so was the food. Our server Dania was very polite and checked on us while we ate to make sure that we had all that we needed. This is IHOP is my mother's favorite place to have breakfast at.“

“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!“

“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“

“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 !“

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

“Over the past 10 years, North Jersey closed West Caldwell, Bloomfield, and Morris Plains location within the past 10 years. I live in Verona and still willing to drive 30 minutes for a Reese’s Pieces sundae. SO THANKFUL the Morristown Friendly’s is still thriving. I’d be inconsolable if this shop ever closed! Butter crunch ice cream is my addiction.“

“Ordered one their meals for take out. Great service, great price and great food! Will do again when they have something that looks good to us!“

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

“If you have an expense account, enjoy. Well prepared, and way above average quality and taste. But price is even higher than what you would expect at an airport. Highly recommend the turkey sandwich, but all our entrees were really good.“
