can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we had hosting our daughter’s engagement party at Janina’s Bistro. To be honest, we took a risk booking a place we hadn’t personally dined at, but the Google reviews were spot on. Tom and his staff were fantastic hosts for our group of 40.
Every guest was raving about the food and the hospitality. Janina’s attention to detail really made us feel like we made the perfect choice for such a special milestone. They have certainly gained new regulars, as we’ve already returned for dinner since! After visiting and reviewing many restaurants, Janina’s has earned a spot in our top ten. If you’re looking for a great BYOB with heart, this is it.

Great intimate bistro, with great food and absolutely the BEST service of any restaurant! It’s BYOB but there is a liquor store right next door. In nice weather a nice outdoor patio to dine in. Desserts, especially the tiramisu, are delicious. Highly recommend!

This is one of Hunterdon County’s hidden gems. The food is outstanding, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is very welcoming. No liquor license but you can BYOB or go next door to Bourban Street. If you haven’t tried Janina’s Bistro, you are truly missing a wonderful dining experience.

This is for take out only. Food was just ok at best. Penne Vodka was very bland, lacking sauce and flavor; no prosciutto, garlic, parm flavor. Chicken Parm- Chicken was good but small, the spaghetti with it was overcooked and again lacked sauce and flavor. All portions were small for the price you pay. Very disappointing. Did not distinguish themselves from the many, many other Italian food options nearby. Maybe when you dine there they do a better job.

Service was so friendly and amazing, atmosphere is so comfortable and the chilled music is so nice, food was terrific, and plentiful even though I didn’t get pasta. Shrimp and Scallops is awesome. I’m running out of adjectives… highly recommend! Oh wait, BYOB with the Bourbon Street Wine and Spirits attached! Ok, I’ll stop… but it’s that good.
