Best Contemporary American Restaurants in New Providence

The dining experience at Cafe Vincotto last evening was excellent. The restaurant was decorated with balloon hearts on the ceiling which was both clever and colorful. The owners are both so kind and sincerely happy to serve you. We had a delicious meal, both homemade pasta dishes, with fresh salads as starters. We were served hot food and in a timely manner, not rushed. Fresh gelato for dessert. We enjoy this restaurant and wish the owners much continued success.

Wonderful service (AJ) and very good food. Price was a little steep...

What a breath of fresh air! The Hartley offers its clients a sophisticated, upbeat, and upscale atmosphere in which to enjoy fabulous drinks and delicious dinners. Thoughtfully decorated with a calm, dignified backdrop, the bar and dining rooms are punctuated with bright, beautiful abstract artwork commissioned specifically for the restaurant. The result? A uniquely cheerful, warm, urbane, and elegant ambience! In addition to its outstanding food and beautifully made drinks, the service is exceptional. The bar tender, Dylan, is articulate, friendly, and attentive, and the servers and hostess are personable and professional in delivery and appearance --- a rarity these days. The Hartley has by far raised the standard for and elevated the mood of local / regional dining. It is NUMBER ONE on our list for quiet dinners out during the week and lively dinners and drinks with friends on the weekend. Viva la Hartley!

Have not been here in a while and friends came in from out of state and we gave options for dinner and they selected DH. We started with a great waitress katie. 3 of us ordered the short rib barley soup, it came out lukewarm and we had to send it back. good not great. very disappointing on such a cold night, was slight hotter but not hot. 2 of us ordered the wok salmon which was amazing and recommmended by katie. delish!!!! great recommendation. One of us ordered the tuscan shrimp pasta with the pistachio cream also delish and she loved every bite. The fluke was a special that my friend ordered who is a fish lover and a real foodie. It was just not good, definitely not delicious. Very disappointed, would never order again. We all ordered coffee and a a great special dessert, The Cookie Bomb. amazing. Katie made the experience exceptional.

Wonderful quiet nook - fresh food and excellent service!
