Three of us visited this restaurant. We all enjoyed our lunch. We ordered a bbq pulled-chicken sandwich, chicken salad on a roll, and a ham and asparagus crepe with soup. Everything was delicious. However, be aware they are not big servings. You'll be satisfied but some people may leave wanting a little more food. It was awkward having to order at the counter before being seated (and pay the bill at the same time). We had my elderly father with us, so they let us take a seat first and brought us the only copy of the menu and specials for the day! Unless you've been there before and know the menu, it is a difficult way to order. They serve soups, salads, sandwiches, crepes, etc. The ice cream looked good but we did not try it this visit.

It's a popular steak house and has been here a long time. Off and on over the years I've gone there. If you like steak and are not fussy about it, it is pretty good. Big slabs of meat, often over salted (I don't know why it tastes so salty) done the way you want it. Boisterous atmosphere...nothing fancy. It's very popular and often there are lines to get in. Plenty of parking in the immediate area. In my opinion, its about meat, lots of it, and beer (mostly). It's better than the chain steak houses but it's not fine dining like Ruth Chris. Prices are fair for the quality.

I admit Florence Italy is my favorite place on Earth. Sadly I live in New Jersey and not Florence. I can however get a little taste of true Tuscan cuisine and authentic Italian cooking right around the corner from my very own office. Everything I have ever had out of this shop has been above-average if not better. Definitely worth the trip.

I love this place if not just for the charm and growing history of this place and the town! Great ice cream - sometimes a bit sweet for my palate, but hey, it is ice cream... and it is creamy and the texture very smooth. Definitely recommend to anyone!

Went there for dinner with my husband and son. We had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, well prepared and very fresh. Our server was Gabby and she was efficient and attentive. I had occasion to speak with the manager Lindsey and she was so very helpful and understanding about a food matter. Can't wait to eat there again!!!

My husband and I was actually looking for somewhere different to dine at on Saturday night. We googled restaurants and found Hibiscus. I am a lover of everything Caribbean so when we found this place I was very excited.
They opened at 5:30 and we arrived at exactly 5:30. We were greeted by the waitress and seated right away. It is such a cute little restaurant perfect for date night. The restaurant is in the basement of the Best Western hotel. I liked the live entertainment and the Caribbean decor and music. This is a byob but they serve a non alcoholic drink called Sorrel and a homemade fruit juice. We ordered the Calamari Caribbean style for apps which was very delicious. They bring you out homemade festival which is a Caribbean sweet bread. It was actually the best I've ever had. My husband ordered the oxtails for his main course and I ordered the jerk Chicken dish. My husband said it was very delicious but the portion was not filing as you only get 3 oxtails. The Jerk chicken dish was good and enough for me. it came with rice and peas vegetable and plantains. I had the rum bread pudding which was a really delicious treat.
They do have private parties and catering. I am considering having a private function. I met the owner Karlene who showed me around and gave me the information about the private event. I'm glad we found this hidden Gem in Morristown.

this was the most pleasant experience on this short trip.
I appreciate always an atmosphere where wood and cozyness is present on all levels.
From the door till the bill we has a great time.
Food is great, not so expensive and very very tasty. Not only burgers available but many other things too. Finally i could have a desert and another great tasting vine while having great fun with my friends.
9. Ruth's Chris Steak House

Reviewed By DelbartonMom - New Jersey
Celebrated our son's 26th birthday at Ruth Chris in Parsippany. We arrived 5 minutes early for a 7:45 pm reservation. Our waiter George took our drink order promptly and explained the menu and the Ruth Chris cooking procedures. From there things started to get a bit scrambled. When ours apps/salads arrived , one of our parties salads was incorrect. It was replaced with the correct salad but took a while. Then when dinners arrived, one of the steaks arrived TOTALLY incorrectly cooked....Steak order medium rare and arrived well done. Again it was replaced but that took even longer. Most of the party was already half-way done with their meals when the correctly cooked filet was delivered. Our Shoestring potatoes were ice cold and had to be reordered and one side was forgotten. Although apologies were made, no offer of a free drink or any other compensation for the several mistakes. At the prices that Ruth Chris charges one would expect a finely oiled machine with some sort accommodation for errors.
Lastly in the middle of a extremely busy dining room, our party observed one of the wait staff DRAGGING a table through the dining room bumping into the back of patrons' chairs. Totally unacceptable. For over 800.00 for a party of 7, I will take my business elsewhere.

Pretty picky about bagels, and was exciting to try based on reviews. Don't get me wrong, bagel and CC combo was very good, but the bagel lacked the over to top bliss experience of a truly special bagel. Still, would go again with no hesitation.
