Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Bernardsville

Celebrated a birthday here with family. Still the best restaurant in Summit.

We had a great lunch today. The lentil soup and special eggplant part sandwich was excellent. Our reservation was at 1 pm and it was full up and noisy when we first sat down. By the time we were finished the place had cleared out. Declan and Maddie, our servers, were on top of it - polite, timely and friendly. Great meal in a busy place - be sure to make reservations.

Reserved a table for 30 min before sunset and enjoyed the changing light. (It was a fairly clear day.) A table near the window is best. Service and people were great! - a mixed group of apparently mostly immigrants - typical New York. Chatty, friendly. Food was very good. Not that many choices but all sounded good and I had checked out the menu online the day before. The ribeye had a bit too much fat for me but was absolutely delicious (and big). My wife devoured the cauliflower pasta. The carrot side was wonderful. The Rioja was excellent and great with the meat. Paired with enough time before the meal to enjoy the Observatory experience and the view (an hour and 15 minutes for us - some may need more time for pictures) and some time after to see the City in lights, it was a great celebration at a reasonable cost. Mid-winter (January) had no crowds which made enjoying the space easier.

The food was extraordinary. The decor and ambiance were beautiful. The staff was kind and very accommodating. I will return again and again.

Strip steak was excellent, but it should be for the price and the portion size. There is no more complementary bread basket – you need to pay $16 for Parker house rolls dessert which was the apple cobbler was missing the whipped cream.
