Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Bernardsville

Very good! Overall great experience, I think they should have more variety of proteins options, especially for the vegetarian entree. The food was delicious. I would imagine it would be better to see the property during the day.

What a wonderful way to spend an anniversary. The staff was marvelous, especially our waitress , Leah and bartender, Bill. The food was delicious and very ample. We will come back very soon.

Luca’s is always a positively delicious and pleasant dining experience

We'd eaten at Restaurante MV the weekend before. Osteria Morini restaurant is not as pretty as Restaurante MV, but the overall quality of the food and service for us outweighed the ambiance. Between the two restaurants we preferred the cost and the quality of the food here, although it was slightly higher than a restaurant in Chester and in Lebanon we enjoy. We shared an app, a salad, each ordered an entrée and shared a dessert. We started with the Melanzana (fried eggplant balls) pomodoro, ($15.00) which was delicious and an appetizer we'd never had before. We moved onto the Romana salad which is essentially a Caesar with baked capers, adding a crunchy twist. ($16.00) From here we ordered a chicken parm. (huge portion) with the option of either garlic spinach or pasta. (no extra charge for pasta like Restaurante MV) which was cooked perfectly. ($32.00) We also ordered the short rib special. ($32.00) The portion was small, but the dish was rich with a amazing deep beefy flavor, making the size of the dish was adequate. (Nothing to take home here) For dessert we shared the donuts with toppings and ice cream. I am normally not a donut fan, but these were well worth getting, accompanied by an expresso and cappuccino. The only downside I would say was the restaurant and ladies room were so cold to the point where I ordered hot tea before dinner, instead of a bottle of wine. I didn't want anything cold which was a loss to the restaurant. We would definitely recommend Osteria Morini for a dinner out and will be back again.

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
