    The Saddle River Inn is by far the best restaurant in Bergen county. My guests traveled all the way from Brooklyn, NY, and were absolutely in awe of the entire experience. The Christmas holiday decorations adding an extra layer of magic and charm to the already stunning ambiance. The food was perfection—every dish bursting with flavor and plated beautifully. The entire menu was a hit! Even my foodie guests, who are used to Brooklyn’s top dining spots, couldn’t stop raving about it. With the festive decor, cozy-yet-elegant vibe, and next-level cuisine, the Saddle River Inn made our holiday gathering truly unforgettable.

    Outstanding food and service rivaling something you would see in a small French bistro in a quiet arrondissement in Paris. Chef Michael making the rounds added an extra special touch. My wife and I shared the lump crab soufflé and split the Fallen cheese special. The filling was suburb and was finished in a lobster sauce that was like a lighter version of a lobster bisque. The fallen cheese was Brie and goat mixed together with fresh strawberries and a jam. We each had the salmon which was tremendous. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the sauce was absolutely incredible. Perfectly made pearl cous cous with the veggies was a great accompaniment.

    Great experience. Food excellent. Reserved the private round table tucked in back of restaurant for 3 couples. Food was excellent everyone loved their choices. Service was good. One thing that was odd was that when we got there all the glasses and plates were upside down rims touching table. We are germaphobes so we wiped down our glasses. Also when server brought the Pellagrino she just plopped it on table not opened, no ice, no lemon. Typically a restaurant will bring it with glasses filled with ice and lemon/lime wedges. Despite these minor oversights, I do recommend this very good restaurant in the heart of Ridgewood.
