Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Nutley

I must echo the comments of anyone who calls the alderman a hidden gem. It is truly a little oasis in the hub of Times Square with some of the best food and service I’ve had in a long while.  Everyone we encountered was professional, polite, friendly, relaxed, and service was on point at all times. A special shout out to Hersey at the bar and our server Ethan, who was just tremendous honest and very attentive, to the lovely manager, a young blonde woman whose name I forgot sorry. Had the perfectly prepared salmon and flirt steak entrees from the prix fixe menu plus ALL the other TASTY courses and they were very generous portions, very satisfying and a wonderful value. Cannot recommend this enough if you are going to a show or you just want to have an enjoyable evening dinner lunch or just a coffee from the front barista station. The ambience is warm and tasteful. Like sitting in a garden! Just terrific. You won’t be disappointed.

We absolutely loved our meal! The pre-theater dinner menu was well priced -- an excellent value for NYC and for the quantity and quality of the food. The food was absolutely supurb! And our server was professional and caring. We loved the "cool" atmosphere of the dining room. We will definitely be back.

We had a fabulous dinner at Rosie’s! I had fillet and lobster my husband had chicken cordon bleu. Both entrees were fantastic. The new Rosie’s is beautifully done. It was quiet and the service was wonderful.

Great breakfast food. Especially love the omelet with leeks and Gruyere. Excellent coffee. This was 4th or 5th time eating here. Always great.

We arrived about 15 minutes prior to the dinner service and were seated right away anyway. The owner was very gracious and recited the appetizer specials and then the entrée specials of the day. Service was so good that we hardly noticed plates/flatware/glasses being exchanged for new ones. The food was awesome and everything you want in French bistro. The atmosphere was very pleasant as more and more diners arrived. We were never rushed. I was dining with an old friend and of course we much to catch up on. I kept a close watch on the amount of empty tables as not to overstay our welcome. When we got our bill, realized it was over 3 hours since we arrived and again, never felt rushed. Because of that we over tipped to thank the fantastic staff and then personally thanked our gracious host (owner). We will return again to explore the menu further. Thank you, thank you thank you.
