Best Restaurants for Birthdays in New Vernon

Overall, quality and quantity was very good. Our reservation was for Noon and had to wait for a few minutes while the table for our party of 6 was getting ready. I did have to then approach the hostess desk to find out if the table was ready for us which we were then seated immediately. The ambiance was nice with many families, the noise levels a bit loud but to be expected for brunch time. Our server was very attentive and friendly! Definitely recommended beautiful location will return for when the weather gets warmer!

The food is always great at Halcyon but sometimes the noise level won't let you think, much less talk to the person you came with. We came late this time and the noise level was a bit better.

Let me start by saying that service was impeccable! Starting with the hostess being very attentive and nice, to our server that was 10/10! Food wise, we ordered the tuna tartare which was good. Not a classic tartare but really good! A very nice surprise with the tonato sauce, paired with micro greens and freshly toasted bread and olive oil on the table. We continued our meal with two seafood dishes and the shrimp and mussels were cooked beautifully. The restaurant offers a nice cozy atmosphere and did we mention that the service and the staff were amazing? Mr. Franco Porporino (the owner) seems to care very much about his restaurant and customer satisfaction and that left us very impressed. All the best and happy holidays, Anca & Liv

Went for my wife’s birthday (not the easiest person to please) and everything was perfect from the steak and lobster tails, to the service. We are Definitely coming back.

Great place to dine before going to NJPAC for a show, or even if you’re in the area for a visit. Food is very good d as well as the staff hospitality. Be sure to reserve on line far in advance of your show time.
