Can't go wrong with the chef's tasting menu. If you are tired of the same old dishes, treat yourself to Common Lot.

The service and atmosphere were excellent and the food was very good. The scallop and octopus appetizers were excellent. Duck entree was well above average. The bread pudding for dessert was also delicious. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

Common lot should be a Michelin star restaurant. Everything is great from taste to presentation, environment and service. They really take care of whole experience and we really feel that’s a special place to go to for celebrations or even regular visits.

I started with the 4 course menu the salad was amazing the burrata was great the cabbage was inconsistently cut some soft some hard to even eat the sauce was great but that’s about all for the 3rd course I had the duck skin was soggy texture was great but not enough crispy was a little too fatty should’ve been pan seared for 4 th course I had the panacotta not impressed honestly basic flavors no wow factor service was great hostess and waiter but the food was mediocre overall decent but comparable to diner food with a twist

The host and waiters were down to earth and always ready to lend a helping hand with our needs and to explain what something was. They were so kind. The 4 course meal was amazing and surprising filling! I would definitely go here again. I highly recommend going here. It is 3 $ but if you can handle that it's really worth it.Vegetarian options: The menu changes regularly, but the vegan options present were amazing and flavorful.

Wow. Just fantastic. Prix fixe, chicken jus rigatoni, branzino, panna Cotta, beef tartar. All top notch. One note, the web site is not in sync with the current menu. But the salmon ceviche was good but I had my stomach set for hamachi ceviche.

I must say this was an exquisite visit for me and my guests. Busy Thursday night, Party of 4 with multiple bottles of wine, winemaker from the west coast who had been dining at the tri-states best for several days. James and his team were extremely accommodating, professional and seamless in execution. Absolutely divine.Food was superb and service didn’t miss a beat. This was quite nice to see as many places miss one thing or another at this level.Very impressed and will be back.

Fantastic meal from beginning to end. All of the food was delicious and the portions were quite large. The lamb Shoulder to share was even way too big for 2 of us to finish, I would guess we are taking home over 2lbs of meat to finish another day!
