Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Bloomfield, New Jersey

Blu on The Hudson is arguably the best restaurant I have ever visited. From the moment you pull up to valet service until the time you leave, it offers an exceptional experience. On January 3, 2025, I had dinner with a few friends, and the food was outstanding. There were eight of us, and we ordered various appetizers, entrées, and sides. I couldn't find anything negative about the food; everything tasted amazing. However, I did have my favorites. The "Thick Cut Wagyu Bacon," slow-cooked with a soy caramel glaze, is absolutely to die for. For my main course, I enjoyed the Wagyu Tomahawk, paired with whipped potatoes and truffle cream spinach. As a finishing touch, I had truffle butter drizzled over my Tomahawk. As I mentioned, I was there with a group of friends on January 3, 2025. The ambiance, service (specifically from Letty and Amber), drinks, and food prompted me to make a reservation for a date night with my wife the next night, January 4, 2025. Guess what? Blu on The Hudson didn't disappoint. Our waitress, Victoria, was excellent! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and made our evening flawless. After dinner, she had the valet retrieve our vehicle, just as Amber and Letty had done the previous night. I can't wait to return to Blu on The Hudson; it's a perfect choice whether you're looking for a date night or a relaxed outing with friends.

The food was excellent. The service was delayed; however, they treated us to the dessert which was nice.

Our waiter Juan was great and always very attentive! Loved the food! We will definitely be back. 😋

My family and I just had an amazing experience at Mediterranean Grill. It was our 5th Christmas dining there and we are continually impressed by the quality of everything. Thank you for helping make this a magical Christmas.

Aaron, our waiter was outstanding!!! He was friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful!!! Our food was delicious- I had the fish tacos, my daughter had the chicken sandwich and my sons had steak and Shrimp Fra Diablo! For dessert, we had the strawberry sundae!
