38 Best Bar & Grill near Short Hills

“As always it was a great evening if amazing food and hospitality by all of the staff. The live band was amazing. A perfect evening to sit outside and relax with my family and celebrate Angela's birthday!“

“it was perfect my fiance took me the food was great the atmosphere was perfect the staff was great“

“Stopped in for an appetizer and a beer before heading home for the day. We arrived after they opened at 4 and there were a few people already there. The bartender was super friendly. We ordered some local beers (good variety on tap) $10 a beer, and an order of the bang bang shrimp. I am still thinking about them.....for $18 there was a good amount of shrimp, the sauce was perfect and the crispiness of the shrimp was the best I have ever had. We will definitely be back for the shrimp and will stay for dinner this time. They have two floors of outdoor seating as well which is blocked from the main road.“

“A great place for food, friends & bands like Pale Horse“

“Historical spot. The woman in the B&W photo on the right is my Aunt.“

“Looking for great pizza and food in general? This is it! Great atmosphere especially for watching sports. The pizza is the best in the state they load the toppings and cook it perfectly with that crisp bite. GREAT selection of beer, some beers i cant find anywhere! Its a qauilty restaurant and clean. With attentive service aswell, all around great spot, by far one of my favorites. Check it out you won't regret it!“

“Awesome atmosphere, delicious food, awesome service, love trivia night, highly recommended!!!“

“Wonderful atmosphere and food.“

“Great place and great people.“

“Good and quick service. Best empanadas we ever had. Based on those, the philly cheese steaks were a let down. More bread than filling, hardly any cheese. Tap beer was flat as a Guinness, and wasn't supposed to be. Holiday mule was good.“

“this is the best bar an restaurant Katrina an Abby are the best bar tenders an the food is amazing.“

“Great local spot for drinks and food, with tons of TVs and all the sports, plus a cool little outdoor seating area. Has its own parking lot too. The food was pretty great, we had a small bar pie that had good flavor and crunch, and the disco fries were awesome. They're curly fries, which is great. Good service too, basic tap list but the domestics are $3 all day every day?? Sign me up. Live music on Fridays too, would definitely go back.“

“Food was decent and we had great table service from the bartender that was there when we were in for lunch between 11:30 and 1 PM on a Tuesday . The negative is the 4% credit card surcharge. Firstly, I don’t like that surcharge and secondly, I have not seen establishments charge 4% so that seemed excessive.“

“Great place... I go for lunch all the time... Try the Cheesesteak... The thin crust pizza... Ceasar salad... & the Roast Beef is always Rare...The Staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcome..So drinks at the bar or out on the patio.... It's a good time“

“Food is always good to excellent. Good hard working regulars always say hello; many have become good friends. The Portuguese " Cheers" kind of sums it up. Karokee on a Friday or Saturday brings a mix of music from people who just love to sing and to be around good people.“

“Tankys is the spot! These people in the comments below complaining about it being unsafe just have nothing better to do. Other bars right down the block plays music just as loud and stays open just as late. Besides the one incident last year, there aren’t any brawls or fights that happen there. Most ppl that go there are regulars and know each other. To the ppl complaint about it being loud in open late, you have the power to move to another place you knew where you were moving to when you moved there tankys has been there my whole lifeThe drinks are strong and cheap, the vibe is chill, older crowd, when they have a DJ the music is good, u can bring food in, and they have a lil pool table and a parking lot. I been going to tankys for year and never had a bad experience. Occasionally the bartenders be too busy to get to me and I’ll get tired of waiting and leave but that’s all rare.“

“Clean establishment, easy to fine, well lite sports bar/restaurant. It's more of a burger joint, meeting friends type place. Good pricing, good value. Friendly staff and nice owner. The best value is the prime rib dinner night. Get there early for when ribs are gone. It's over til next week.“

“the best in everything, bar food and atmosphere“

“el mejor ambiente! excelente atención y excelentes precios 😜“

“The food was and always is Delicious never a disappointment and great service. Our waiter was awesome he interacted with our family.“

“buen ambiente rica comida“

“This family owned bar/restaurant has a welcoming authentic atmosphere. The customer service is exceptional. Dan was very friendly and attentive. The food is phenomenal, best steak in town. The original lomo saltato is to die for. Deff will be back.“

“Great music, great vibe, great people! Visited while in New Jersey for my birthday weekend. Ronnie, the lady tending the bar welcomed us like we were regulars. There was no drama of any kind, just people having a good time on a Friday night!
The kitchen was closed but we ordered food through DoorDash…
Will definitely visit again if I'm in the area!“

“Kinda boring home in the wall bar. You could tell that the patrons you see there are always there. Bartender was really sweet. She was very attentive and relatable. Id never buy food there because it looks like the oil was there from previous business (bar was taken over and renamed at some point)“

“Muy buen citio y trankilo y las niñas son muy amables les recomiendo y la misica es la mejor de Elizabeth en morris ave“

“We stopped in for dinner at Chrone’s Trattoria to try the food since it’s under new management now. It was SO good!! I got the Greek salad with chicken cutlet and onion rings. Everything was so fresh. I can’t wait to come back- their menu includes a ton so an easy place to go with friends for a great meal. Definitely check it out!“

“Lit! Lit! Lit! Went for Sinful Saturday (brunch) which starts at 9am but decided to get there early afternoon (around 12pm). It started out a little slow but boy did it become packed! Good music, the food needs help, I had french fries and empanadas and the empanadas lacked flavor and needed salt. I think more food options would help, especially if you don't eat seafood.“

“This restaurant is a culinary treasure. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth, and that hospitality extended throughout the entire meal. The menu was a culinary journey that showcased the chef's expertise and passion for gastronomy. Each dish was a masterpiece, and the wine selection complemented the flavors perfectly. I left feeling not just satisfied, but truly inspired by the exceptional dining experience.“

“Visited today with my mom and we left extremely satisfied! We ordered two burgers and two appetizers: clam strips (normal menu) and wings (daily special)

Burgers - Very juicy and tasty, thick half pound patties. Cheese was suitably melted, I added mushrooms to mine and they were nicely cooked as well. The fries were pretty lacking in salt, but that's nothing a little ketchup can't fix :)

Clam strips - Same idea as fried calamari, but with clam meat instead. Slightly different flavor but mostly the same thing, I liked it.

Wings - These were insanely flavorful and should go on the normal menu!! Juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and an incredible dry rub made from garlic and parmesan. I am a sucker for naked wings because I don't like any sauces so this was perfect for me!!!

Service and atmosphere - Very chill and casual bar&grill environment, our server was attentive and frequently checked on us. I got a refill on my iced tea after the burgers came.

Price - We spent $87 after tip. That's what happens when you load up on appetizers :)“

“If you want to wind down from a crazy day and enjoy good eats and libations, this is the place to be! Anyone can come here and feel welcomed, and don't forget to order their famous MAC AND CHEESE!!“

“Excellent food and service!!“

“🔥 54 Main Bar & Grille is the spot! 🔥 From juicy smashed burgers to fully loaded nachos, every bite hits different. 🍔🤤 The vibe? A perfect mix of lively and laid-back—whether you're out with friends or just unwinding. 🍻✨ Service was on point, drinks were flowing, and the energy was just right. If you haven’t been, you’re missing out! Who’s down for a trip back? 👀🙌 #FoodieFind #GoodVibesOnly“

“Stopped in on a road trip - and wow! Highly recommend. Excellent food and service. And the Halloween decorations are unparalleled.“

“I took my daughter there on 4/8/25 for her birthday omg it was an awesome experience,the food was exceptionally good and it was alot our server was mannerly, helpful, patient and polite.the ambience was good and the other guest was friendly, they even sang my daughter happy birthday. Also the price was really good for the amount of food we received. I'm definitely going back and I would recommend it to everyone“

“I used to go to this spot on Bloomfield Ave a few years back, but one of the owners (Tommy, i seem to remember) would get a little too animated and become obnoxious towards the customers.

I figured I'd give it another chance and drop by to check it out. It was much more chill. The food was standard bar food, and the beers were relatively inexpensive. The girls behind the bar were cute and attentive. They have a DJ on the weekends, and he plays the classics from back in the day.

Overall, it was a much better experience for me, at least.“

“Best costumer service great food and great music“
