Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Mendham

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.

We celebrated Valentine's Day at Washington House Restaurant. The food and atmosphere were perfect for the occasion. Hearts were decorated everywhere, and a rose was at each table. There was a special Valentine's Day menu. Hubby ordered his favorite fish and chips and loved it. I ordered the chicken and farro salad which I enjoyed very much! We ordered the valentine's day dessert - a tiramisu inspired red velvet cake! Beautiful and delicious!

Great place. Way better than we expected. Ambience was good. Food awesome.

It’s our first time at this place, even though we’ve been seeing it for over two decades. In short, we were quite pleasantly surprised by the taste of the food, as it was light but very flavorful - not as salty as we thought we’d get from almost any Italian restaurant we’ve been to, some of which are very good in their own right. However, this lightness in taste stood out, be it the prosciutto in the salad or the clams in pasta. We’ll come back for sure.

Casual ambience delicious food wonderful waiter and hostess. Have been 4 tumesbin the past year!
