Food is good and it's a nice atmosphere. We have been here a couple of times and the service has always been good. My only complaint is the times we sat at the bar is that be bar stools literally have no space in between each other. Just remove one or two bar stools and give your customers some space. Very annoying. read more

Phenomenal burger! Probably the best burger I've ever ordered from a sit down restaurant and they come served with a generous helping of homemade, fresh, and hot french fries. We also split an order of the G&C Stuffed Rolls. Crispy, oven baked pizza dough, wrapped around melted cheese then accompanied with an avocado, cheese, paprika dip of some kind; best way I can explain it but still delicious. Leave the heart paddles at the door and come check this place out. read more

When I'm doubt, Grain & Cane! Grain & Cane has been my go-to restaurant since my first visit back in Spring of 2022. The atmosphere, ambiance, service, and food are impec The Crispy Calamari and Disco Fries have been my top choices of Appetizers, until my last visit last week when I tried their Meatballs for the first time & WOW. Their Steak was cooked to perfect, however, if you don't know what to get, you definitely can't go wrong with their Burger either! Just like everything else, their desserts are also up to par. However, I do wish there was an extra school or a bigger school of ice cream with Apple Cobbler! read more

place is really nice - drinks were good too. I had the lobster roll and thought it was small but good. The two people with me had the steak frites and the steak was bland and nothing special. the side of mushrooms was over cooked. the side of squash was cold and nothing special great. toffee bread pudding was amazing. Apple crisp was good. read more

The Grover burger has to be one of the best tasting burgers I ever ever tasted and I've been in the search for NJ m's best tasting burger. This place certainly has it. Def worth it. There chicken pops are wings and they are perfectly sliced with their sauce and it hits the spot just perfectly! Their margarita hits the spot perfectly as well! I highly recommend this place for wings and or a burger with a Rita! read more

We've been coming here a few times a year since it opened. I don't think we'll be back after tonight. Service was very slow. Food took forever to arrive and arrived cold. I don't think this was the waiter. They seemed to have a system where the waiters turn in the order and different runners bring it out. We ordered takeaway ice cream, then waited 15 minutes to be told one of the flavors wasn't available, then waited 29 minutes for the ice cream. The manager should be fired. read more

Delicious cocktails, the seasonal pear cocktail was fabulous, the blood orange spritzer and espresso martini were 5/5. Calamari did not disappoint. The scallop risotto and filet with red wine Demi glacé were excellent. The sautéed mushrooms lacked flavor but everything else was great. The bread pudding is a must order. Service was great. read more

3.5 stars - beautiful interior and plentiful parking. They accept reservations online. Notorious Frosé 5/5- perfect for a hot day! Loved the sweetness of the strawberry. If you're like me and can only drink dessert-y cocktails where you can't really taste the alcohol, go for this one! Crispy calamari 5/5- calamari was nicely cooked, not chewy/rubbery, and there was not too much coating. I enjoyed the aioli it came with too! Chicken pops 3/5 - these were okay. They are pretty much Buffalo chicken drumsticks. The meat was kind of tough and I think wings are better suited for Buffalo sauce Soft shell crab sandwich 3/5 - I was originally going to order the spaghetti with clams and I probably should have stuck with my gut. The crab itself was fine, I just did not love the accompaniments. There were sun dried tomatoes and onion remoulade and I don't think the flavors complimented the crab well. Fries were fine, nothing special. My friends ordered the steak and salmon so I can't comment too much. My friend enjoyed his steak and my other friend thought the salmon was just okay. read more

Have passed it so many times and finally took the plunge for lunch. No regrets. Appetizers were very good, service was efficient, and the vibe is pretty cool. The pizzas were good, and they offer a gluten-free crust for any of the pizza options. Burgers were a big hit! read more

My husband and I stumbled upon this spot for a date night. Through pictures online I immediately liked the atmosphere / vibe and their menu choices. Very easy to make a reservation. Myself in particular am very selective when I order a steak / red meat of any kind. I went on a limb and ordered the Wagyu sirloin and it was perfect! The tenderness of the cut and the seared crisp outside was mouth watering. My husband for the first time was jealous of my choice of entree. He ordered the Nashville hot chicken. He enjoyed his as well but the steak was just amazing and had the option of sauces on the side. The cocktails were creative, delicious and unique. We are already planning to come back. Oh also the carrot cake and the port wine was the perfect ending read more

Always outstanding food, variety of outdoor seating with a partially covered from the sun.

Great service, great food -especially the burger -nice patio for outdoor dining -don't be put off by the fact its in a hotel

We arrived early for our reservation and the hostess seated us promptly. Drinks and apps were brought quickly and then the wheels came off. Our server must've walked past us 100 times over the next 35-40 minutes while our drinks ran dry and our entrees sat in the kitchen. Finally we flagged her down and she said she would go "check on our orders" and brought it out immediately. It was clear it had been cooked ages ago and was just sitting there. Apps were good - disco fries and meatballs were enjoyable. But in addition to being lukewarm my burger had a big rubbery thick cut piece of bacon that had not been cooked properly and made actually getting a bite of bacon with my burger quite a challenge. Eventually I ended up just taking it off and leaving a good one inch piece of rubbery inedible fat on my plate. Overall, not a great experience. The hostess was kind enough to offer we speak to a manager, but my friend who was speaking with her on the way out decided he didn't want "all that", This place has a lot going for it and decent potential, it's just a shame that a poorly trained server and kitchen that gets it right half the time kind of spoiled the experience. read more

We stayed at the hotel connected to this restaurant. At first glance I was impressed with the aesthetics and my family and I were excited to give it a shot for dinner. The moment we walked in, I knew it wouldn't be great. It seemed as though it wasn't kid friendly, when they saw we had kids my husband saw one of the waiters roll their eyes when he realized we were his next table. My kids are older, well traveled and well behaved. I immediately felt out off by this but we were hungry and didn't want to drive somewhere else. We literally sat there for 20 minutes for our waiter, Izet. He didn't even introduce himself or give any eye contact during the duration of our meal. It felt very odd. I got the strawberry spritzer, was half full and a ton of ice for $15, what a waste. The only decent thing was the Caesar salad. My fresh made pasta was gluey and lumpy, definitely not cooked properly. I sent that back but had to flag down someone who wasn't even our waiter because he never came to our table to check on us. Take my advice, skip on this place for dinner. It's not worth it. read more

Came here tonight with my good friend for drinks and dinner. I love the upscale and classy decor from the entrance to the dining room area. I ordered a White Sangria and so did my friend. Damn the glasses we're huge though lol. We waited for seats at the bar so Misheel can continue providing us with excellent service. I seriously needed to pace myself since I am a lightweight when it comes to drinking alcoholic beverages haha My friend ordered the Shrimp Scampi Pasta and I ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese Pasta. My pasta dish was definitely hearty and fulfilling. Man, I was in a food coma plus a bit buzzed from my Sangria. Yes, I finished the Sangria all by myself hehe. Overall it was a very yummy experience and you should give this spot a try! read more

Great dinner spot! The location is kind of strange because it's part of the Embassy suites hotel but dinner was delicious and service was great! We got drinks, pizza, and dessert. I appreciate they had GF options for the pizza and my GF friend said their version of GF pizza was really good! The best part of the meal was the mixed berry cobbler which was steaming hot with a big scoop of decadent vanilla ice cream on top. My mouth melted faster than the ice cream on the first bite. read more

Stuck in a nearly invisible office / hotel campus area, this upscale eatery offers inventive American fare. We tried it as a potential end-spot for a Porsche Club rally so we tried several offerings. First, the wings were a different take on this finger-food staple. We thought they were excellent and the 4-wing plate was just the right size for a small group. I had their take on a crab cake (the waiter suggested it) - it came with a crisp, well dressed salad and would order it again. Really delicate flavor, really fresh tasting. I had their pizza (pictured) and my companions had Shrimp Scampi (gobbled down, plate cleared) and the chicken waffles - not a scrap left over with lots of yummy noises throughout the meal. Our server kept my soda glass full (designated driver) and the beer glasses refilled without waiting - a true professional. The only bump in an other-wise smooth road as the Gelato. Called home made, I figured it would be etherial. I was seriously disappointed. It had a strange pasty taste and a residue clung to the spoon. I'm a gelato snob - have tried it in several classic shops in Italy and make special trips to my local favorite place in NYC. This gelato needs help and I wouldn't recommend it. My friend had the Apple crumb (HOT!!) and he said it was wonderful. Interesting restaurant with some creative options on the menu. Beautiful interior, big screen TV on the wall, strange (read - hard to stumble upon) location and superior wait staff. I'll come back with my wife - she will go for the crab cake and scampi. read more

Nice space but Overpriced. Food was good but not great. Nice array of choices but everything was just ok. Nothing was fabulous. Our waitress was excellent and the house was very accommodating about changing our table to make us comfortable. Interior decor is a mix of steampunk and warehouse tempered with candles and flowers. Overall -it was just ok. I wouldn't go back. read more

Went to this restaurant at around 5:30pm and it was about 25% full with no line. Host would not sit me as a single person expect outside in the 90 degree heat. I explained I'd like to get a quick burger and coke, then go back to my room for work. Still refused to seat me. I'll stay at a Marriott next time. read more

Spent the weekend in Berkeley Heights at the Embassy Suites, I had two meals at the Grain & Cane. We sat in the bar area both times. They have an old school Commodities Board that flips regularly between he specials & witty sayings. We ordered the speciality burger which was quite tasty plus the calamari appetizer which was lightly breaded. A pleasant meal but the service is a bit slow and the bar area can get noisey if a large party is in the bar. The second meal was lunch. Enjoyed the turkey club which was quite good and the service was quick. This restaurant is the only game in town in the office park but a nice place if you are stuck at the Embassy Suites. read more

We went as a family to try this newer to us restaurant for dinner. A group of six adults easily procured a reservation at the central table. The large rotating letter sign above the bar was very neat to see and observe change throughout the meal. Our wait staff was excellent. We ordered an array of different things, each being delicious. Plenty of parking, as this is attached to the hotel. Ambiance is dimly lit, almost romantic but not quite. We'll be back! read more

It was a gorgeous weekend in Nov so obviously everyone wants to go out so reservations were slim picking but the pictures and reviews looked good so we decided to give it a try. Seated promptly. Very nice server. Staff appeared caring about covid guidelines. Amusing was after reading a review citing the table water had a taste and recommended a water filter and I have to say I agree. Seems like a small but meaningful change management should consider. I started with the burrata appetizer and it set a very tasty tone for the rest of the meal. Then I had the fried chicken sandwich with a side salad. Dressing could use more vinegar or flavor tasted very just oily. Chicken sandwich though was perfectly juicy and paired with a fluffy bun. For dessert we split the apple crumble. Holy mackerel, that was soooo good. Highly recommend. Surprised how packed it was given the location which is a testament to the quality. Would return. read more

Amazing from start to finish. Had a 12pm reservation for lunch. We arrived 5 minutes prior, greeted nicely by the hostess & sat right away. Our waiter was extremely nice and attentive. We stayed 4 hours!!! Ordered some apps, entrees, drinks & dessert. Food was delicious and drinks were strong I didn't take a picture of the dessert because I forgot by the end of the meal- but we had the chocolate cake!!! Definitely would go back for another lunch date or even try the dinner menu. read more

Came here after a very long night of travel with two kids. Just randomly found It. It was so so cute inside and amazing ambience. However the service was TERRIBLE . Our waiter was terrible, I don't know if we caught him on a bad night or what. I asked if there was any other way to make Brussels sprouts and he's like nope only friend which is fine but man the attitude. The food was delicious however which is why I'm disappointed to give this place 2 stars otherwise It would be 4-5. At the end I asked for an iced tea to go and he's like I'll have to charge you, even though I had an iced tea already. Just completely rubbed me the wrong way which is unfortunate because this place has the potential to be great. read more

Their pizza is pretty good. The restaurant is nice too. The soda is pretty basic too lol. It is one of those restaurants that gives you free refills every time you order a drink read more

Wildly inconsistent Night one: very busy and had to wait a bit for the food but it was good--fresh, hot app (calamari) and very tasty main (salmon) and good service. Next night: much less busy, less attentive service, and a lot of socializing at the kitchen window between servers and cooks. We received lukewarm and under seasoned apps (French onion soup, meatballs) and I received a main that I couldn't finish (chicken Caesar salad) and was comped for because it was inedible. Another note about this entree: if a restaurant decides to serve a deconstructed Caesar salad, it needs to be exceptional if the customer is expected to cut up a huge stack of romaine lettuce themselves. And, more than the tiniest pinch of gremolata needs to be present as croutons are an important component of this salad. Also, don't drown each lettuce leaf in dressing because, and this is most important, no matter how much Caesar dressing you slather on, it will never hide or rehydrate the chicken that is as dry as dust. read more

Food is amazing. Rotating seasonal menu. Try the monkey business cocktail if you like whiskey. Calamari is bang bang. Many gluten free options available. read more

OK, so for a restaurant attached to a faux nice hotel in what is essentially a massive parking lot in north Jersey, this place is actually pretty decent. Our family gathered here for a meal last week under distressing conditions, and we all managed to have a good time together, which, given our circumstances, is saying something. The atmosphere is hipsterish and pretty nice; their little sign thing above the bar that changed every few minutes was equally amusing and tacky. We sat at an intimate booth and everything was clean, which we appreciated. There's a solid beer selection and the sangria isn't bad. Our daughter got meatballs--basic, good sauce, no complaints. The lobster cobb salad was basically a bowl of 80% leaves, 10% of all the other ingredients, and 10% lobster; everything was piled on top for effect, and the dressing was beyond bland. For $26, that dish was a capital-L Loser. The roasted branzino was, we have to admit, a rather interesting dish. The combination of ingredients was unique, but we got thrown off by the varying temperatures of them on the plate. Still, the fish was nicely cooked and the whole thing tasted great. Props for that. The table shared dessert, and the "grilled" chocolate cake was basically just someone in the back throwing a kitchen torch over the side: #unimpressed. The ice creams were all delicious, and our kid heartily approved. Service was....fine? OK? Like, he got the job done, but was not as on top of the table as he could have been. We treated the family to dinner, so the check was high, and at the end of the day, some of the value just wasn't there (see: lobster cobb). It's 3.5 stars, and while we are choosing to round down to 3, we would recommend Grain & Cane if you're in the area and want a halfway decent meal. But don't go out of your way for it. read more

Really good food, quick polite service, cool ambiance. This place has delicious food and an amazing atmosphere!

While visiting the adjoining Embassy Suites, I hosted guests at this restaurant several times during my visit. Not only was every visit seamless, it was wonderfully delicious, and priced right as well. My true joy was booking a Sunday brunch for 12 guests, with almost no lead time. G&C's manager Stephanie, just plain crushed it!! Not only did she take our last minute request with poise and grace, she delivered a family style meal for the ages!! Food, fun and friends - doesn't get any better than that right? Please extend our compliments to the chef - an incredible job with no advance warning - WELL DONE!! So, if you find yourself in Berkley Hts, NJ - stop by Grain & Cane you will not regret the visit, neither will your friends! read more
