Best Casual Restaurants in Mendham

Great service! Delicious food! Wonderful ambiance. We will be back!

We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Chef Fredy's and greatly enjoyed ourselves. My wife is gluten free, and they were able to make nearly everything on the menu available to her. The scallops appetizer and stuffed salmon entree were delicious. The gluten free bacon appetizer and duck were outstanding. The desserts were also very tasty. The ambiance was great. Highly recommend for a special occasion.

As always the food wine and ambience was excellent. Salvatore ensures that you are treated well. This night however due to a waiter that was fairly new to the establishment, things did not go as smoothly as in the past. Our service was inconsistent, varying between very good and needing improvement. He did try however. I do believe that once he has been there for a longer period of time he will fit right in.

Beautiful historic restaurant ! We loved the fireplaces and dining room areas. There was also a great bar area with tables and a fireplace. Dinner was fresh and tasty. Service was prompt and good. We would dine here again if in the area.

We'd eaten at Restaurante MV the weekend before. Osteria Morini restaurant is not as pretty as Restaurante MV, but the overall quality of the food and service for us outweighed the ambiance. Between the two restaurants we preferred the cost and the quality of the food here, although it was slightly higher than a restaurant in Chester and in Lebanon we enjoy. We shared an app, a salad, each ordered an entrée and shared a dessert. We started with the Melanzana (fried eggplant balls) pomodoro, ($15.00) which was delicious and an appetizer we'd never had before. We moved onto the Romana salad which is essentially a Caesar with baked capers, adding a crunchy twist. ($16.00) From here we ordered a chicken parm. (huge portion) with the option of either garlic spinach or pasta. (no extra charge for pasta like Restaurante MV) which was cooked perfectly. ($32.00) We also ordered the short rib special. ($32.00) The portion was small, but the dish was rich with a amazing deep beefy flavor, making the size of the dish was adequate. (Nothing to take home here) For dessert we shared the donuts with toppings and ice cream. I am normally not a donut fan, but these were well worth getting, accompanied by an expresso and cappuccino. The only downside I would say was the restaurant and ladies room were so cold to the point where I ordered hot tea before dinner, instead of a bottle of wine. I didn't want anything cold which was a loss to the restaurant. We would definitely recommend Osteria Morini for a dinner out and will be back again.
