Best Historic Restaurants in Caldwell

Overall an amazing Christmas Eve dinner. Definitely worth a visit. The food was great and so was the atmosphere. Wish our server was a little bit more attentive.

Just had Christmas Eve dinner with my family and the food was excellent. The decorations were amazing and so beautifully done. Can’t wait to go back !

Scalini is the best Italian restaurant in New Jersey. We loved everything that we had, but most important was the staffs friendliness and attention to detail, as they made us feel welcome! Thank you for a great night !

The food is superb. The staff is very attentive for your needs. They watch your reactions and react to what they think you may need or want. Truly old style restaurant service. That alone I tip well for. The superb food and service. Noise is a little loud, but it is an old building with a nice ambiance. Take in the atmosphere, ambiance, and view along with superb service, and you will have the perfect experience. The only negative I have is the table downstairs near the middle, and the wine bar area is tight and has a lot of traffic. I was at that table the first time, and it was annoying the amount of wait persons and people squeezing by the table.

Seated on the upper level of the dining room we had a grand view of the Tiffany ceiling, and it was much less noisy than the main floor or the red dog. At the close of the meal we were serenaded by the wonderful Brynn Stanley and her pianist, and we spent a happy hour post meal listening to them perform holiday and jazz favorites. A great way to begin the last weekend before Christmas!
