Just what's your favorite restaurant in whatever county. For example

Essex County -- ________________

 

[Abro1975]

For Essex County I'll go with LuNello's in Cedar Grove. Superb Italian, and seasonal specialties. Prices a little on the high side, but it's fancy with great food and great service.

And a ton of attitude if you are someone 'off the street'.
But yes great food.

 

[PhilaPhans]

For Salem County, I'd go DiPaolo's. Classic Italian goodness.

Essex County: Lorena's in Maplewood. Also the best restaurant in the state.

Looks like it just happened. No idea why, place was great and always crowed.

Please share what's so great about the MV deli .

 

[Terry_2426]

I can't second this enough. Everything there is amazing--best crab cakes and chicken marsala I've ever had

Somerset County- 90 Acres

If you ever go and enjoy a varied dining experience,"Bring me Food" is really good. It's several small courses based on a seasonal menu. It's not cheap especially with wine pairings but my wife and I enjoy it 1-2x a year.

Hunterdon County- there are a bunch of good ones. Ryland Inn is good. Tenderhill in Whitehouse Station is new. It's run by a guy who worked at Per Se in NYC. They grow their own vegetables, change the menu often and serve great food.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Please share what's so great about the MV deli .

- 1/2 lb thick sliced pork roll
- 1/4 lb yellow American cheese
- 8" Hoagie Roll (IIRC)

MV Deli and Greasy Tony's, as well as that pizza place near the Melody, prevented a number of nasty hangovers.


But, I digress.

I heard this place is incredible! I just haven't had an occasion to go there. So for now I will say Buona Sera in Red Bank.
