  Not worth the price. Granted it was a busy Sat night. There were plenty of wait persons but service was bad. when our waitress finally showed to take our order-no greeting or apology for the wait. cheese platter- poor presentation and when the meal showed more than an hour later- beef medallions ordered medium rare were dried out & the tiny vegetables were overcooked. Waitress never asked how dinner was. few staff members dressed in tee-shirts. not exactly five-star service to go with expensive tab.

  This evening was our first time to the Brookside Bistro, and we never had the opportunity to go to the original establishment as we have only moved to the area recently. We finally decided to stop in after, earlier today, talking to a neighbor who said she was bringing in some peppers from her garden because she was friends with the owner. Well when we hear something like that, we’re intrigued!
  We walked in just before opening and without reservations, but they were very welcoming and sat us anyway.
  I must say, that the food was AMAZING! Between the outstanding food, extremely friendly management and staff and very reasonable prices, this place may be my all-time favorite dining establishment. I am active duty military and also a foodie, so I have been all over and eaten at many great and unique places, but there is just something really special about the Brookside Bistro. My family and I will be sure to be back many more times because I am very excited about the items on the menu that I couldn’t fit into my stomach this evening.
  If you find yourself traveling on route 287 through North Jersey, be sure to get off at exit 53 and check out this lovely little bistro, and it will make your trip that much better!
