    Had a fantastic Valentine’s Day at The Highlawn! The drinks were on point, the food was super tasty, and the whole place had this great romantic vibe with amazing décor. It was the perfect spot for a date night. We’re definitely going back again soon. I highly recommend it if you’re looking to make the day extra special!

    The food was excellent, just 2 minor things: 1-they don't serve alcohol here. I have since learned this has something to do with Montclair in general, though this restaurant does allow you to bring your own wine. I don't hold it against them, they have no control over it and now i know for next time. 2-They had a modified menu for Valentines weekend, so the regular menu wasn't available. Not the end of the world at all, and we got our food EXTREMELY quickly (and it was delicious), just another thing i wish i had known ahead of time.

    I regularly dine there particularly to invite a friends because I find the value outstanding. The portion size on the early specials and the variety of choices is unexpected, particularly, for the price point. My friend was very impressed and we shall return. The service is as solicitous as you would wish. I am no stranger to fine dining establishments and I consider the quality and service par with any, if not better. this is an all around pleasurable experience. If I have one mention, it would be that it is very intimate, and when a full house, it can be a bit filled with conversation. I don’t let it disturb my party, as it is a gem, with convenient parking, and it takes and honors reservations.
