    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!

    It was a late (9 pm) evening decision, to go out for a light bite, post a Jack and Jill Baby Shower. Where to go to get some healthy fare like salad, oysters, mussels and clams? Aha, La Griglia was the answer. And so we were off. As always we were greeted with big smiles and a “great to see you”. The service and food was spectacular. .Be it a quick bite or a 3 course dinner, choosing La Griglia is always a great choice!

    I had a wonderful experience as a I went to celebrate an early Valentine’s Day with my wife. Mr. Charles was an excellent waiter that was very attentive and checked in on us at perfect increments. He also went above and beyond in making any necessary accommodations that were needed. The Short Hills location has been the best in New Jersey area. Thank you for once again allowing your have a great evening
