Super yummy apps and drinks, excellent staff that was attentive and nice! Recommend the chicken bites with bubba J sauce

Food getting worst and worst every time we go there. You don't get much for the price you pay I think it's only worth there. If you have a discount on the food otherwise it's not worth the prices. He won't be going back. read more

Short an to the point , food average, service below average, prices extremely high for what you get ! Food extremely long wait , when you're ready to pay the bill It takes an extremely long time. There's a lot better value out there for your money. read more

Very very ordinary food and the service when we went wasn't very good. The local is nice but was just expecting more.

Setting/ambiance, staff, food, and drinks are all very good, and make the 30 minute drive to and from this restaurant worth it. The St. Moritz is definitely one of our favorite summertime restaurants in northern New Jersey...with its tree filled "beer garden" lit up and equipped with table top fireplaces. read more

Only a few words: simply magnificent! The ambiance for starters grabs you. We had a party of 6 so we decided to sit outside. It was hot but our server was very nice and made sure we never ran out of our beverages. Not very impressed by the appetizers but the main course was amazing. I had the pork tenderloin medallions which we cooked to perfection. My husband had the veggie burger and he said it was very tasty. The others had the shrimp and grits and there were no leftovers. Highly recommended. Amazing food. Excellent wine and beverage assortment. Definitely going back! read more

I had my daughters engagement party there this past weekend in the garden toom. Even though it was her day off, the banquet manager, Sue, stopped by to say hello. She was SO great to deal with. Accommodating, responsive, and NICE. The food was excellent, thecwaut staff ware fantastic, and everything was clean and beautiful. I would absolutely have another party there. read more

Service is always great here and the manager comes around to check on everything. The food is always good and the ambiance is good for families read more

Sparta has no shortage of great dining options, but one of my favorite go-to's remains St. Moritz. You can't go wrong with either lunch or dinner here. They also cater to small parties, such as birthdays or baby showers. Today we came for lunch with the family to check out the new revamped menu. Everyone ordered something different: from fish and chips to a burger and fries. I had the chicken schnitzel with mashed potatoes and green beans. The chicken schnitzel was tender and perfectly prepared and the mashed potatoes were warm and buttery. Everyone raved about their dishes, long after the meal was done. We were all so full, but two of us decided we had to try some of the enticing desserts. The two we tried were the apple crisp a la mode and the creme brûlée. Both were outstanding. Other important notes: they have a great list of brews and wine. I had the Estrella Cabernet Sauvignon. I've never had it before and it was smooth and delicious. My fiancé had the Yuengling. As far as parking, there are several spots in front of the restaurant and they also have a lot that is valet only. read more

I came here to have lunch after the Christmas market in town. Luckily we only had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table and they were able to call us when the table was ready. I did love the atmosphere of the place! Very cozy. Service was very friendly, but slow ( we didnt mind b/c we werent in a rush) I had the chicken Schnitzel which was tasty- a little too greasy but had good flavor. I also shared a cup of leek soup with my mom and I loved it!! My mom had the lobster small plate- I had a bite and it was ok. We got the warm apple crisp for dessert- you really cant go wrong with warm dessert and ice cream! Overall its an average place to stop in for food. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed our whole evening. Tried their calamari which was offered with some different items( all listed on the menu), it was delicious. Cooked just right and tried the peppers, onions... both had the schnitzel which is the best I've had . Very tender and flavorful. Dominick our waiter was very attentive and nice. Great service!! Observed couple next to us who had trouble with their drinks, think it was a language barrier as well. The waiter, bartender and manager all came to the table to try and figure out what they wanted and third time nailed it. All of the exchanges between customer and staff were respectful and clearly intent was to get it right. Couple certainly appreciated it. Was just nice to see how genuinely concerned staff was to give the customer what they wanted. Well done and can't wait to go back. Prices were good too. read more

The food was great! Sesame trout, glazed salmon were great as were the scallops... the only thing was there were no herbs in the herbed rice.. it was good but just plain white ..... waitress was very nice! read more

Love this place. Food is great and the bar area is a great atmosphere! Staff is always exceptional! One of my favorites spots & we always love going to Lake Mohawk. Highly recommend! read more

The atmosphere is very nice. The food is average. Service is just OK, but the prices are ridiculously high. Do not go here unless you want to overpay for mediocre food. read more

Led to the back area where there was a large and loud party seated as well who were quite obnoxious and we couldn't enjoy our own conversation. Also wasn't impressed with the food at the time we stopped in. Will likely give it a try again maybe in the summer when we can dine outside and not enclosed by noisy people. Great parking though. read more

Fatty steak. Very expensive. But the waitress was excellent Better choices in Sparta read more

Always could be better. The chop salad is the best thing on the menu. Will only get it with the shrimp. The salmon is too greasy and always hurts my stomach. Nothing else on the menu is new. They refuse to update menu. They keep pushing the same 8 specials and acting like they are providing something different. Since covid they shrunk the menu, and gets very hard to keep going back. read more

Experience started from bad to worst We visited the restaurant and bar today late afternoon for a very late lunch. While the place was fairly empty, the hostess took a while to seat us as they didn't have enough wait staff to run the place. After we seated and ordered, the food arrived after a rather long wait. The grilled burger which we got was overcooked and borderline burnt. The "spinach and artichoke dip" felt like an off the shelf dip from a grocery store. To top it all off, the place had flies circling our plate. We were seated indoors far away from the doors and since it was cold, their outdoor seating was closed, which makes it difficult the presence of flies difficult, besides the fact that they do a lousy job of keeping the place clean. Even getting our check and payment took another 10minutes read more

Food is really good, however the service is pretty slow so I unfortunately have to take away one star. But the ambiance is beautiful in this restaurant! My husband loves it here and it's always a fun place for the occasional get-togethers or family outings. read more

Busy bar area with quieter dining area further back. Friendly waitress, mediocre food. The fruit flavored Moscow Mules unfortunately are lacking in the fruit flavors. We tried both the pomegranate and the blueberry Moscow Mules, but really it tastes just like a regular Moscow Mule... but we like Moscow Mules, so it wasn't too much of a let down. The best parts of both the Wood-Grilled New York Strip and the Seafood Mixed Grill were the potato components (potato casserole and potato croquettes), which are supposed to be sides, not the main show! There was nothing wrong per se with the steak or the seafood, but it was just very mediocre. The chocolate mousse shooter was meant to be a small dessert for when you don't feel like having a full decadent and heavy dessert. It tasted like standard chocolate mousse and fit the bill for being a light sweet bite to end the meal on, but it was not worth the price. The overall experience was just extremely average. read more

The food was OK. The service was kind of slow. It's well worth the trip It's a local Sparta restaurant.

As a vegetarian, I am so grateful for the options this place provided. The greens bowl was just absolutely fabulous, perfectly executed! Make sure to try those marinated chickpeas and that avocado ranch is so perfect. I will be back! My husband loved his duck and shrimp Cocktail too as well as the two drinks (something Smokey and the strawberrry daiquiri). I also got the spinach salad with the most delicious shallot Asiago dressing! Yum! read more

The St Moritz is an institution in Sparta. The Biergarten is wonderful for summer or autumn dining. Try the schnitzel

Favorite restaurant in Sparta - They have a great outdoor seating "Biergarten" that's almost impossible to get a seat in during the summer. They don't take reservations for outside, but if you can get a seat either before or after 6-7pm it's worth it! They have creative and tasty specials almost every time I'm there and a GREAT happy hour menu. My favorite dish is their sausage platter with croquet potatoes. I just tried their potato leak and 1/2 turkey, avocado, lettuce and tomato sandwich for $9.99 and was extremely pleased! FYI - They have a loyalty program so definitely sign up for birthday specials and the latest happenings. Also, in July they give out red envelopes at the end of the meal to bring you back in August when your server will open it. You can get all types of coupons (ex. Free appetizer). read more

Always a great place to eat and wow, I loved the shrimp and grits! It's wonderful sitting outside in the summer and having run up in Sparta since I was three years old, I will always love this place. It's always wonderful being in the Plaza next to the boardwalk and watching the sunset over the lake. Great food, great atmosphere and a wonderful staff. read more

My college buddy hosted a dinner party here for her son who graduated from high school. We had the private room at the far left from the entrance. It fit about 40 of us very comfortably with room for 4 hot entrees, 2 sides, and 2 types of green salads. The service was excellent. From the time we arrived to set up the centerpieces, to the time they cut and served the cake, the countless staff were courteous and almost invisible because they were so efficient! They were so smooth in clearing the used plates, mingling through the guests with appetizers during happy hour, and even served the hot entrées! The food was presented well and had great flavor even though it was prepared in large quantities. The beef was tender, the salmon was moist, the chicken was tasty, & the shrimps in the scampi were huge! Everyone helped themselves to their satisfaction and had a good time! There is valet parking available if you can't find free street parking. The restroom is clean and accessible. The ambiance is noisy and festive! My friend had had a previous family gathering and a work event here. Both had been successful. I'm sure that if you have a private party at St. Moritz, it will turn out great, too! read more

Never disappoints. From take out, to indoor dining, outdoor, and drinks at the bar, it's consistently delicious. TRY THE FISH TACOS! Also, very important to add, the wait staff is amazing. They couldn't be nicer. read more

The food was delicious. Lots of great flavor in every bite. Our waitress was wonderful and the manager stopped by for a visit also. The room and restaurant itself are lovely. Would highly recommend! read more

I made reservations for this very fancy restaurant but only realized that it opens on weekends. I then made reservations for this restaurant and I had no clue how the food was going to be but man it delivered. This food tasted very nice and wholesome....I ordered the spinach artichoke dip and it was light and a little creamy with some colorful vibrant chips that tasted great...I then ordered the honey glazed salmon which was the best salmon I had this year...The salmon tasted so fresh and juicy and the orzo was nice zesty while the leaks yet weird tasted nice and overall was just a great little dish...The scenery was so beautiful with lights and umbrellas...Everything was just so great and I will definitely come back again for more. read more

We dined last evening at the St. Moritz, an eatery we go to frequently. Upon arrival we were greeted and escorted to our table immediately. Our server approached us to determine if we would care to order a cocktail, which we did. It took close to 15 minutes before the cocktails arrived. We then placed our dinner order of salads and entrees. We both ordered a salad including the special salad which was to contain Ahi Tuna. The special salad arrived minus the tuna. It took an extremely long time to gain the server's attention to correct. The entrees finally arrived about 30 plus minutes after the salad course was complete. Since we sat for 70 minutes before our entrees arrived, we considered requesting our bill and leaving. There was so much time waiting for food that we ate two baskets of bread. Another selection was Chicken Schnitzel, which is one of their signature dishes. The chicken was tough and rubbery and accompanied with a smaller than usual serving of mashed potatoes... Not usual. Not sure of the causes of all these issues but for $170.00 for two, we expect a lot better. read more

Great food, there pork chop is fantastic great beer on tap. We go there for birthdays etc, everyone we bring there loves it

Great place, great service, great food. Indoor and outdoor seating and they were highly efficient during the reopening since covid. Chopped salad is fantastic as well as most of the entrees. Will definitely be back. read more

The food is incredible and we love the staff!! Christine is so great!! Never a disappointment when we go. All their dishes are so good it's so hard to pick. Highly recommend this place! read more

pretty underwhelming lame spot. We had just attended the German Xmas Market across the street which was lovely, and wanted to make the hour drive worth our while and have a nice dinner before departing. It was 4 star prices at 2 star quality. I've had better food at Outback steakhouse unfortunately. I really wanted this place to be magical because it gave that impression. read more

St. Moritz Grill & Bar - I ordered a salad... what the heck is this ?? - American Near Me - Sparta, New Jersey

I live within walking distance and have been here many times. I have never had a bad experience especially since they redid the place and added the beer garden. Came here on July 4th for dinner with my wife and a friend who grew up in Sparta but now lives in Georgia. My friend hadn't been here since the beer garden was added and it being a beautiful night we asked for a table outside. We noticed there were plenty of empty tables on the way in but we were told it was a 1 hour wait for a table of 3! We asked why so long and they said they didn't have the staff to service the beer garden. A beautiful evening on the 4th of July and they don't have enough staff! Completely unacceptable! Not the way to run a restaurant! Needless to say we went next door and ate outside at Kroghs with no wait and had a great meal! read more

I called to inquire if they were open for dinner. The hostess said yes so we headed down. Once we arrived we were asked if we had a reservation. We of course said no. We were then informed that there would be an hour and a half wait. We told the the hostess that we just called and we were never informed that reservations are recommended. The hostess was confrontational and we left. read more

Overall great place, salmon was good and drinks were fresh. Service was also on point. But, like many places nowadays they skimp on the sides or in this case practically non-existent. I would still visit here again, but not on a rotation basis. read more

This place has become more our home than a random dining experience and we've felt the love since our first visit three years ago. The staff is so friendly and their passion is shown every time we visit. Today is a quick bite so we are eating at the bar. Bustling as normal with John and Justin at the helm. A robust wine by the glass list paired with a happy hour light bite menu makes this a quick and affordable stopover! I love their full menu too and if you ask me, the mussels can't eat beat! And the Chopped salad. And the Chicken Schnitzel !!! Oh and the Crabmeat and Avocado dip (when I'm season,,,) I could go on... and on... read more

St. Moritz Grill & Bar - Nightly specials for 11/7/2019 - American Near Me - Sparta, New Jersey

Went to St. Moritz and ordered the one (yes, one) vegetarian dinner menu item. The "super bowl" was said to come with some sort of beans and cheese, which were not present. The reality was unwashed spinach on top of a bed of unseasoned white rice. One of the bowls even featured a hair. The salad dressing given was not nearly enough for the spinach, much less to give any flavor to the rice at the bottom. The kicker? One hour wait. You heard me, a full hour for unwashed and unseasoned salads. The restaurant was not busy; we arrived at 5pm to a room with only two other parties seated. There was one meat eater in the party, who reported that his BBQ chicken sandwich was dry. 5 stars if you like dry meat. read more

Cannot believe this disgusting establishment is allowed to serve "food" to customers and take their hard earned money. Their chicken schnitzel here was recommended to me by my rude waiter and it came out cold. I asked for another schnitzel and they returned the same entree just reheated in a microwave. The chicken fell apart as soon as I stuck my fork in it to reveal a brown liquid of some sort. I would never recommend this restaurant on my worst enemy. I will never get the time or money i wasted here. Only beneficial part about this restaurant is the outside seating which was lovely. read more
