Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Rutherford

A terrific place for lunch and drinks, a beautiful store with tremendous class.

We went to Fernando’s Hideaway. I went with my two friends, we were served by Amanda and Jamie. Both of them were great and were attentive to everything we needed. We never missed our drinks and the food was amazing. I would gladly go again and definitely will be.

Fabulous dinner on Christmas. Service and food were amazing.

This is my 2nd time here. I made reservations weeks ahead of time due to the holiday. I was only able to get outside lobby area. Upon arrival I asked if anything was available inside and they had high top bar seating available at their “seafood bar”. I was with my friend and our daughters under twenty one. Since it was freezing they wanted the inside. We had no trouble talking and the view from this spot was nice. Our server Dorji was EXCELLENT. He was very attentive to our needs and made great suggestions on drinks. We decided on the espresso martini and it was perfect. Our arrival was before 6 so the prix fix was available and you definitely get a lot for your money. The salad was okay but the French onion soup was wonderful and really hit the spot on a cold day. Two of us had the coq au vin and that was delicious. My friend had the steak and was happy. My daughter ordered the NY strip off the regular menu. She loved the fries, enjoyed the steak but said the cut was a little tough. We had crème brûlée which was a wonderful way to end the meal. The location of the restaurant is perfect if you are in town for the holidays. The place was decorated beautifully as well.

Party of five. We were seat as soon as we arrived. Waiter checked in regularly. Food and drinks were very good.
