Pine Ridge sits in the Somersett town center and works well as a neighborhood spot. There's seating inside and out, and the place has a modern, minimal look that feels relaxed and easy to settle into. We went on a Saturday early in the evening and were seated right away. The restaurant is large, split into a few different areas, and the service moved along at a steady pace. Our server stayed friendly and checked on us without hovering. The bar is fully stocked, and the food leans toward casual comfort bar food. The pizzas seem to be their strong suit. We ordered the Meaty and it was flavorful and satisfying. The wings were crisp, well seasoned, and cooked nicely. It's a comfortable place for a laid back meal with familiar bar favorites and a few house dishes mixed in.

My first time dining here and most likely my last. Sorry. I ordered Penne Bolognese which was their supposed house specialty. The menu description reads "House specialty of ground beef, pork, red wine reduction, cream, garlic and herbs in a reduced Roma tomato blend". Sounds good, right? Wrong. The proportion of sauce to pasta was off. Way more meat sauce than penne. The meat sauce didn't look or taste like anything special so I'm not sure why this is a house specialty? And their garlic bread was just sad. I didn't see or taste any garlic or butter. Just a sprinkle of Italian seasoning on the bread. Please see pictures. The price at $22 is hardly justified. My sister ordered a mushroom burger and I'll admit that tasted better than my pitiful pasta. Can't go wrong with that. The ambience was just dark. Dark paint colors on the walls and not enough windows. I felt claustrophobic. However, we could've dined outside but we had a baby and a toddler with us and it was quite windy. On a positive note, our server was nice. She did check up on us from time to time. I give it a solid 2.5 stars.

The Pine Ridge Tavern just opened. Everything is new, spotlessly clean, the staff is over the top friendly & anxious to help with any questions about the menu. Even the owner/chef came to our table to answer a question the server wasn't sure about. Their prices are moderate. A copy of the menu can be found above and/or on Google. The pizzas, nachos & chicken wings were excellent, fresh & hot. They have a full service bar & serve Coke products. This is a locally owned & run business. Give Pine Ridge Tavern a try !!

This new restaurant is tucked away in the Town Square shopping center in Somerset, just off Somerset parkway. Really nice interior and a great staff. They have outside seating too. I had a pizza - see photo. They have lots of yummy options so I'll be back soon. GREAT background music!! Highly recommend, Yelpers! Second visit today - Some staff are still training so had to remind myself to be patient. I wouldn't recommend the beef dip. Even with the au jus and added provolone it was dry. Very tasty, but dry. French fries are terrific. My friend had a burger and ate every bite which I have never seen her do in the 30 years we have known each other. To me, that says a lot.

We were at the Town Center car show and decided to go here for lunch. It's a new restaurant, and we wanted to give it a try. The interior is all new, but doesn't seem to be decorated as of yet. Maybe it's a work in progress. The staff was very pleasant, and the menu looked pretty good. After ordering, it took quite some time to get our food. But, they did apologize for the wait. The nachos arrived, and we were happy to see a mix of toppings, but they use a cheese sauce not actual melted cheese. See photo. The Asian chicken salads were okay, not great. The melon with prosciutto was fresh and tasty. My friend ordered a hot dog that was disappointing... Overcooked dry old hot dog in a Wonder Bread bun. At least they could have used a Nathan's or a Ballpark Frank. I guess maybe the hot dogs are just meant for little kids. We will give this restaurant another try in a month. Hopefully, the quality will improve.

My friend and I went here the other day. This was the first time I went here since Peavine Tap left. We went inside to get a table and decided to go outside as it was too noisy. It was a nice day and the tables were clean. Waitress came over got our order. My friend decided to try the Philly cheesesteak pizza and I got a small salad and buffalo wings. The wings looked liked they got burnt but it didn't taste like it. They were really good. Salad was just a house, nothing to brag about. My friends pizza came and she was not happy. Instead of provolone cheese, they poured a cheese sauce on it. Weird. She had me try the sauce. It wasn't bad it was just bland. It needed seasoning. The manager came out and took the pizza off our bill and gave her a melon wrapped with prosciutto. Very good!! I was glad to see the manager made it right. I hope this business makes it. It's nice having a restaurant close by.

This is a new restaurant and I desperately want it to succeed. Twice I've ordered items with cheese, but it turned out to be a cheese sauce that had no flavor. I've had the prosciutto wrapped melon twice, and it was delicious both times. The nachos and Philly cheesesteak pizza. We're both not good and Management took them off my bill.

Very disappointed. Worst pizza I have ever had. Ordered the margherita pizza to go. They said twenty minutes. Showed up on time and pizza was not ready, no big deal. 10 minutes go by and still nothing. I'm now being told my pizza just went in the oven and shouldn't be long. Red flag right there, 15 minutes later I have my pizza . So I walk home with the pizza which is about 3 minutes open up the pizza and just by the looks I can tell it's not going to be good. First of all the fresh mozzarella if you call it that wasn't even melted, fresh basil was obviously cooked in the oven with the pizza and lastly why was there balsamic drizzle on the pizza wasn't in the description for the pizza when ordering and definitely wouldn't ask for that on my pizza. Was hoping for a neighborhood gem but, got a dud. Better change things fast or you won't last.
