Best Restaurants for Groups in Morris

I loved everything about this place, my wife and I decided we will be going here at least once a month.

A Perfect Valentine’s Dinner at The Courtroom – Abner Hotel: Our Valentine’s Day dinner at The Courtroom in the Abner Hotel was nothing short of spectacular. Located on the second floor, the restaurant welcomes you with a stunning lobby and fireplace, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening. The main dining room is beautifully designed, offering both elegance and incredible acoustics—ideal for enjoying the wonderful Brooklyn-based jazz trio playing old-time classics. The food was just as impressive as the ambiance. We started with the indulgent mushroom croquettes and the refreshing Amber salad, followed by perfectly prepared baked cod and a decadent lobster Newburgh we simply couldn’t resist. Dessert was equally exceptional—a delicate meringue cake and a rich Arethusa Farms ice cream sundae that left us savoring every last bite. Despite the restaurant being busy, the service was attentive, and the lively yet intimate atmosphere made for enjoyable conversations with fellow guests. We left absolutely satisfied and are already looking forward to returning in the spring to experience the rooftop bar. The Courtroom is a true gem—elevated dining with charm, character, and an experience worth savoring.

Had the best Valentine’s Day dinner here. The chocolate brioche bread was delicious. We also received a complimentary cauliflower soup shooter which had excellent flavor. For appetizers we got the yellowtail tartare, which was fresh, and potato and blue cheese flatbread with bacon and onion, which was well balanced. For dinner, I got the scallops with green onion risotto and my fiancé got the short rib. We both cleaned our plates, which is rare for me. In addition to this wonderful meal was equally wonderful service. Our server was so personable and made some much appreciated recommendations as first timers. Will definitely be eating here again!

We had the Valentine Special. The food was very good but the quantity was not. For the price paid a bottle of wine should have been provided. Dana is fantastic.

Fantastic food and drinks, we can't wait to go back.
