Best Seasonal Restaurants in Basking Ridge

The server never offered me a second cocktail, and one of the managers was expediting the food, so when dinner arrived way before I had the time to finish my salad, he could see my displeasure, but I did not want him to take my dinner back. In many cases, the manager apologizes, and that’s it, so I did not really complain, and to my surprise, 5 minutes later, he walked over and apologized again and comped my salad. This unexpected attempt to maintain a pleasant customer experience was greatly appreciated and… thus, overall- outstanding!

Considering that Eataly opened less than a week ago, this opening has been seamless and so well run. Restaurant Management, table service, servers and the meal are fantastic. Started with Ferrari Trento Brut & two appetizers. - Burrata Con Caponata- Liuzzi Burrata, Sicilian Caponata, Basil, Olitalia Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Calamari Fritti e Zucchine - Crispy New England Squid, Fried Zucchini, Lemon, Aioli Delicious! Lunch - Ravoli di Zucca - Housemade Butternut Squash filled Ravioli, Butter, Sage, Agriform Parmigiano Reggiano® DOP w/ Black Truffle Perfect ! Finished with - Tortino al Cioccolato di Eataly - So Rich & Delectable!!! Eataly’s Iconic Chocolate Mousse with Hazelnut Bavarese and Chocolate Crunch Jay, Ruffalo & Guadalupe were lovely to have as servers. Jonathan & Roger are excellent managers and attentive. I'm looking forward to going back with more friends, try more dishes on the menu and shop in the marketplace. Eataly has done an incredible work and it's a fantastic addition to Short Hills Mall.

This was our first time at this restaurant. The food and service was excellent! The tuna was the best I ever had, and the swordfish special was delicious. We never felt rushed, and all enjoyed our meals. Albi was our server. He was terrific. We will be back!

From the beautiful setting to a great server and service, I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to celebrate a special moment. I appreciate that they acknowledged it was for my anniversary with my partner and, throughout the night, tried their best to make it memorable. I will return.

We had a wonder first time at tap and bitter. It was a quiet Sunday but the staff checked in on us throughout our dinner. We always had water and didn’t feel rushed and they gave us time in between courses to relax and enjoy each other company
