- Frank RimalovskiJuly 10, 2012Excellent addition to the neighborhood in the renovated SH train station. Full bar, great food & good buzz. Loved the burger! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Kristine BoiseSeptember 1, 2012Great food - I highly recommend the chicken with grits. But if you eat outside at dinner time, be prepared for some loud trains passing by!
Take the train from anywhere to this cute place or neighborhood people can just walk to the Short Hills Train Station.
Caroline GosselinMarch 22, 2013Don't be afraid to try the Kale Slaw! Amazing. Lychee-Tini not bad either!

drew millerFebruary 10, 2013The worst experience ever experienced in a restaurant. A total disaster. The salmon was held together with MEAT GLUE. We will never return to this restaurant and will tell our friends to do the same.
Jonathan BetzFebruary 8, 2015Avoid this place on Sunday nights. The entire restaurant is overrun with screaming toddlers, and the staff won't do anything about it, even when asked.
Very average. At least it's convenient and they have a bar. Better for drinks than food.

"I had a great dinner here before Elf. The menu is prix fixe and specific to the current show at Papermill. I definitely recommend eating here if you're seeing a show."
