When choosing this location in 2005, we instantly fell in love with the charm and history that the building offered. Walking up the front steps you hear the creak of the original floor boards, and as you enter through the large Colonial doors you may find yourself twisting the old fashioned hand crank doorbell. Every detail of the building is historical, and every picture hanging on the wall gives you a glimpse of what life was like in the 1800’s.Along with our passion for keeping history alive, we also have an even greater passion for food. We only use the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients when crafting our dishes. Not only are we preserving the history of Liberty Corner, we are becoming part of the history too.Voted one of the Top 100 Al Fresco Dining Restaurants in the Country by OpenTable in 2015. Offering four separate dining rooms, you are sure to enjoy the atmosphere, along with your delicious meal. We look forward to being with you soon. We are a BYOB establishment.

    My family and I celebrated my mother’s birthday here and we were truly impressed with both its food and service. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! What made the experience even better was the exceptional service provided by our waitress, Michelle. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making great recommendations that enhanced our meal. Her warm demeanor and genuine care for our dining experience made us feel valued and welcomed. Overall, if you're looking for a place with excellent food and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend Maggiano in Bridgewater, especially if you have the pleasure of being served by Michelle!

    The food and service was terrific. My husband had seafood which was fresh. I had steak cooked perfectly. Bring your own wine is always a value added. We rarely have dessert but couldn’t resist the selection. Highly recommend this Martinsville gem - And the owner Benny is charming.
