Great place for live music. The crowd is friendly and the band was really good (essex funk).
Service was top notch.
Probably best to stick with burgers tho…. the pasta and steak was disappointing.

I went here for a fundraiser they had about 7 different hors d’oeuvres all were good the waiters kept them coming .I ordered the duck lollipops , cheeseburger , watermelon salad , spicy cauliflower and the wings all were very good . The waiters and staff kept the inside and outside clean. I recommend this place if you want to rent for a private party or just go for dinner .

I got overcooked salmon and unseasoned sides. The food was not good. There was a live band there, which you normally enjoy, but no one thought to turn off the house music on the intercom, and you could hear it between every song. It’s like whoever was in charge that night didn’t care about anything.

At first, we thought the restaurant might be just an attachment to the golf course. After dining there, we found the brunch is actually very delicious. Such a nice cozy place to dine in.

My family surprised me and planned a birthday dinner. The food was DELICIOUS! and they don’t skimp on the portions either. Got to love that. Eric serenaded us with his velvety voice while we danced all night long. I got a few birthday shout outs and a birthday drink. Found out The pitcher of sangria was $70!!! however there was PLENTY of alcohol in it. I chewed on some boozie fruit, which was like taking a shot. Had a wonderful time with my family. Good food, entertainment, great company. PRICELESS!

Great place to go alone or with friends and family! Food and drinks are exceptional and esthetically pleasing to the eye and palate, attentive and pleasant staff. Friday nights are the best for live music with E.R.I.C. Once his performance begins, it’s a party and difficult to stay in your seat! Not many places exist where one can eat, drink, sing and dance all in one place. A must-see experience!

Girl’s night turned out to be fabulous. The food was really good, however my fish tacos could’ve used a sprinkle of salt; other than that everything was spectacular. The atmosphere was great, I particularly loved the live performance. I will say that the outside was quite descriptive, this restaurant looks like a community center from the outside, but the interior portrays a totally different story. It’s really nice inside, I felt comfortable & right at home. Dinner, drinks & dancing; what more can you ask for. I had a great time & would definitely come back.

Par 440 Restaurant and Lounge is a beautiful venue on the East Orange Golf Course located in Short Hills NJ. They have really great service even when 100 people descended upon the front door at the start of the event. They always seem to be in control. The food is reasonably priced and it’s always served in a timely manner and it’s always the right temperature. Great drinks at a great price. Highly recommend it as a place for dinner or just a drink. Great environment and restrooms are always clean. And the live music by MPACK and other bands is wonderful.

Good local bar that caters to the town golf course. Diverse crowd, but always friendly. It’s a popular gathering spot for workers from Pfizer and Electric Boat, along with locals that live by.

I’ve eaten here multiple times and the food is really top notch. I usually opt for the veal Milanese, which is a huge breaded chop topped with a wonderful arugula salad.
For a change of pace, I tried the giant meatball (appetizer) with vodka sauce. It is AWESOME. Tender flavorful meatball the size of a softball, stuffed on the inside with cheese and topped with even more cheese! Served with a couple pieces of toasted buttery bread, which are perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce.
