“We were treated to a very varied drink experience. The different drinks on the menu helped us sample drinks according to what we were interested in. I have to say the Speakeasy was probably my favorite, especially because of the presentation. Some of the drinks we had were a good combination of different flavors and spirits.“

“Impressive small plates, charcuterie, and cocktail. Great views of the valley. Perfect spot to hang out with friends at happy hour. Price was not too high, but it’s easy to go overboard. Special note: the ONLY place in the NYC area where I have been served real Sicilian anchovies (they are NOT like American ones).“

“I live in Maryland, and was up in Jersey visiting family. My girlfriend, cousin and I all had dinner on 3/23. Sam provided excellent service, and drinks recommendations. In addition, we had an 8:30 reservation, yet never felt rushed. Thanks again to Sam.Cocktails we had were the Smooth operator, steel magnolia, and the southwest cider. All 3 were amazing. Kudos to the barteam as well.We had the calamari and burrata as appetizers, both fantastic.Next time we find ourselves in Jersey, we will be back 100%.“

“Nice place. All food is good. Quick service. Really small place, only has about 8 tables. Had 2 strawberry margaritas. 1st one in a highball glass with a very dry lime wedge, decent. The 2nd one was in a short glass with another dry lime wedge that tasted different and not as good as the 1st one. Bad lime season so not the bars fault.Parking: Very small parking lot. Few spots in the street. After hours you can park in the post office parking lot across the street.Wheelchair accessibility: None in the front of building. I don't know about the back.“

“Loved everything about our experience .. called ahead to make sure they had a kids menu.. couldn't have been more accommodating.. my grandkids loved it & asked when we go back! Drinks, apps, main meal all excellent.. had plans to have dessert at home but will definitely try that also next time!“

“My husband and I stopped in for a quick dinner for the first time and were amazed by the fast service. The restaurant was almost full but we received our drinks right away and food shortly after. The service was friendly (Marge, Giuseppe, and another server we didn’t catch his name). Nice local bar/restaurant to watch a game. The food was great and we would definitely come back!“

“My wife and I went to Bitol for Saturday Brunch and all I can say is WOW. We were both extremely surprised with the great service and food. We sat at the bar and Hailey was great, one of the best Bloody Marias (Mayan Maria) I have had. My wife loved the Butterfly Pea Tea Mimosas that came with her Mimosa flight. They had great brunch food options and we both really enjoyed our dishes, their guacamole app with the Sikil-P’ak was on point!! We will be back again for brunch, looking forward to their Taco Tuesday night, as well as future dinners at Bitol.“

“Everything was top notch and to be honest I expected the prices to be much higher and was pleasantly surprised. Love the look they have created here. Staff were all well trained and worked well together. Nice touch with the manager stopping by the table to see how things were going. Will be back for sure.“

“We had lunch on a Friday, the restaurant was quiet, but the atmosphere was warm our waiter was very professional, very pleasant. We ordered lunch with main course and dessert. The food was absolutely authentic, high end. My veal chop came with an assortment of mushrooms that were perfectly prepared,: flavorful, seasoned just right. My husband another meat dish from the menu, that he hereby declared truly delicious. We hadn't gone back to Cenzino in a long time, but may well be make it a more regular stop.The restaurant is elegant, pristinely clean. Such a nice time.“

“Food was GREAT and the service was absolutely stellar. Love the look of the place, great for date night or night out with friends. We had focaccia, calamari, Franny's house salad, chicken parm, chicken Marsala and flounder. All winners. Drinks outstanding. The olive oil cake was lovely but not like Maialino's which I love. I would definitely return, did not disappoint!“

“This is my 3rd time coming to Tommy’s. The vibe is amazing… friendly staff and really good food. Drinks are good as well. A bit pricey but nowadays what isn’t. I like Tommy’s because they have a wide variety of food choices such as pizzas, sushi, burgers, sandwiches, and poke bowls, pastas, and more. Def would recommend it if you’re in the area.“

“I came here one time for a quick dinner date with my best friend. And this is my second time coming I just had my birthday dinner with 13 guests. And everyone agreed that all the ladies there were super attentive. The music was so good and the food was even better. Jamelle was our waiter and her patients divine. It is not easy to do with 13 guest drinking all different orders etc . 10/10“

“An assortment of their baked goods ended up on a job site I was working on in the area and GOOD LORD was it heavenly. I kept hearing people whispering…”did you try that brownie, this quiche, the cookies?!?” Not a crumb was left behind. I was happy to find out that my coworkers are from Montclair, so I know where I’ll be stopping when I come to town.“

“Been here twice now and both times the food has been great. We were walk-ins both times so we sat at the bar (which is full service). The cocktails were delicious when we tried them on our second visit. This place is above my normal eating out budget but it’s well worth the money. Just remember to bring a couple bucks to tip the valet workers in the parking lot.“

“Delicious Peruvian food done well! Flavorful, but not too-hot spice. Big shrimp, generous portions. Tallarin verde (pesto sauce spaghetti) was good for the kids to share. Anticuchos were perfect (followed waitress's advice for medium well), as was the yuca a la huancaina, and chupe de “

“We came on Easter Sunday for lunch as a family of 4 adults and 3 children and we were treated like family. The staff was amazing, they checked in on us multiple times and filled our water every time we needed a refill without having to ask. The bread they serve is warm and tasty and the calamari was perfect.Small negatives: the rib eye steak needed seasoning and the shrimp scampi was nothing special, a little salty… my favorite dish was probably the branzino and the Brussels sprouts.I would return!“

“It's such a cute place hidden in north Haledon. Food is delicious. I recommend fresh guacamole. It's made to order literary at the table. Drinks are great too.Parking: This place is hidden. Need to pay attention to find the road. Looks like a residential area, but just follow the road to the end, and you will find it ?“
