When choosing this location in 2005, we instantly fell in love with the charm and history that the building offered. Walking up the front steps you hear the creak of the original floor boards, and as you enter through the large Colonial doors you may find yourself twisting the old fashioned hand crank doorbell. Every detail of the building is historical, and every picture hanging on the wall gives you a glimpse of what life was like in the 1800’s.Along with our passion for keeping history alive, we also have an even greater passion for food. We only use the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients when crafting our dishes. Not only are we preserving the history of Liberty Corner, we are becoming part of the history too.Voted one of the Top 100 Al Fresco Dining Restaurants in the Country by OpenTable in 2015. Offering four separate dining rooms, you are sure to enjoy the atmosphere, along with your delicious meal. We look forward to being with you soon. We are a BYOB establishment.

    I am glad that I chose Redstone, because it was just perfect for the valentine's occasion. The food and service were excellent, and most of all we didn't expect to be seated in a nice booth. It was just an amazing experience. Thanks to all that made this happen for me and my wife! Keep up the good work guys. We will be there soon again :)

    We went to the Pluckemin Inn for the their Valentine's Day dinner. It was somewhat spur of the moment and we were not terribly excited by the menu. The dining experience, however, was terrific. The food was incredible and far exceeded our expectations. The service was wonderful and the atmosphere was subdued and classy. We dine out a lot , and this is one of the best experiences we have had in New Jersey.
