Casual, yet classy; perfect ambiance whether you're on a date or out to dinner with friends. Very attentive service from the brilliant bartenders, and wait staff.

If you haven't already tried Huntley Tavern, I strongly suggest you do; for a quiet, romantic evening or a fun night out mingling with other patrons at the bar!!

January 16, 2021 - While the Lobster was great, the Bolognese was meh.. unfortunately, my boyfriend didn't find it anything special. The Steak on the other hand was amazing! I couldn't stop myself from eating it. Huntley Taverne made our birthday celebration dinner warm and inviting! read more

This is place has great atmosphere: rustic wooden walls, a fireplace. Looks as if it would be terrific, but the food for the four of us was entirely undistinguished and the service was poor. I finally found the manager standing at the bar and said, "We've been waiting 20 minutes to get a check." Ten minutes later he showed up, apologetically, at the table. In all respect, he took the drinks off the bill, but, truthfully, I can't think of a reason we'd ever return here. read more

Solid place for a romantic dinner or a night out in the town. Made reservations about a week in advance and there was plenty of options for a Sat night. The service is friendly and timely. 1. Cowboy steak - Ordered it medium but came medium rare. It was good nonetheless. Not the best steak I've had but not the worst either. 2. Fries - Average. Not much to write home about. 3. New Fashioned drink - 4/5. Slight sweetness and not as heavy as a straight pour of bourbon. More towards the cocktail side. Overall, it was a nice night out. A bit on the pricier side for a local town but good to try at least once. read more

Went there for an anniversary dinner. Food was very good as normal. But this is a restaurant that rushes you and rushes you out. We had a 7pm reservation - had an appetizer, two main courses and dessert and they handed me a check at 810pm. In and out in one hour and 10 minutes including dessert - and the check was about $200. I will take some of the blame as I should have slowed down the waitress but that is not a fine dining experience. And the appetizer showed up literally 4 minutes are placing the order - I was wondering if they read my mind! LOL I just do not appreciate being "sped" through dinner that is considered fine dining. MAKE SURE YOU TELL YOUR WAITRESS TO SLOW IT UP! read more

Ambiance of the place was really nice and it was actually packed but we sat in the porch area so it was not as loud. Food was good, we didn't get into the entrees because the flat bread pizza looked so good and the server recommended it. Service was so so.. server was busy but our dirty dishes sat at the table pretty much the whole time and we had to ask for water at the end cause the server never came around to refill. For the prices and that area, they should have all staff on their A games. read more

The Huntley Taverne - Gettin figgy with it - New American Near Me - Summit, New Jersey

Huntley Taverne, located on Morris Avenue just east of Summit's central shopping district, offers tasty and innovative farm-to-table, locally-inspired dishes made from locally-sourced ingredients in an energetic, modern rustic ambiance that's appropriate for celebrating special occasions with family or business associates or just making it through another day with your significant other. My dining companion and I recently stopped in to Huntley Taverne for dinner on a recent weekday night during the week between Christmas and New Years. We were quickly seated at a high-top table at the bar, adjacent to the kitchen. For our entrees, I went with the Asian-inspired Shanghai Street Noodles ($22), a generous portion of ramen noodles, crispy maitake, bok choy, and pickled shiitake mushrooms with crispy pork belly (+ $9); my dining companion went off-brand and opted for the Huntley Burger (without a roll) ($20), served with crispy pancetta, blue cheese, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions, aioli, and truffle frites. Both of us thought the entrees were excellent.. cooked perfectly and prepared with fresh ingredients. Dessert was a small disappointment -- as our Warm Flourless Chocolate Cake with salted caramel sauce was served cold. When I noticed the diners sitting adjacent to us eating the same dish, I confirmed with them that it should have been served warm. When I mentioned it to our server, who was very busy handling multiple tables and didn't check in with us until she dropped off the check almost 15 minutes later, she shrugged and said she wasn't sure whether it was supposed to be served warm or cold. That's slightly disappointing from a business that puts an emphasis on consistently good food and service no matter which of their locations you're dining at - but not enough to prevent us from returning in the future. Pro Tip: As a member of the Harvest Restaurants family, diners at The Huntley Taverne are welcome to grab a complimentary apple on their way out of the restaurant. read more

Now bringing a new friend into the fold tonight here at Huntley Tavern. She is relocating to Atlanta this week and just felt this is one of the restaurants in NJ, what a send off. Our server tonight is Melissa and she is fantastic. Very helpful and professional. I had their fried chicken and whipped potato dish with the side of brussels sprouts and it was amazing. The ambience in interior design of this place make it very welcoming and comfortable. Fabulous bar area, highly recommend! read more

A top notch experience from start to finish. Great food (seasonal menu), cocktails and service - The Huntley delivers! We started with some seasonal cocktails and a bottle of wine from their extensive list. I opted for the apple cider sangria and it was amazing - not too sweet. For appetizers, we tried the burrata and the tuna tartare. The burrata was a heaping portion and was creamy and delicious. The tuna tartare might be some of the best that I've ever tried, it was so flavorful! For entrees we tried the buttermilk fried chicken, crispy miso shrimp and the burger. Everything was so good, and I really enjoyed my burger. It had poblano aioli which gave it a nice kick, and was topped with vampire slayer cheese (garlic!). The cook on it was perfect and the meat was 100% grass-fed beef. Highly recommend! We finished off with the seasonal creme brulee and the candy bar - yum! We were celebrating so they brought over congratulatory cookies and vanilla gelato - a really thoughtful gesture. The atmosphere and interior is lovely - high ceilings with a rustic, cozy vibe. Perfect for date night or getting together with friends. read more

I've loved the Huntley for years. The food is pretty good, and the space is beautiful. The service is also good, although the last time I was there, we were asked no less than three times whether we wanted more wine - and there was still plenty left in our glasses! That aside, though, I still love this place. read more

Absolutely love this restaurant..and all their other locations. Seasonal menus, craft drinks, white table service and everything tastes amazing. This is our go to when we visit our son at Seton Hall University. read more

We came early on Tues night around 5pm. Ordered Just baked rolls and shrimp rolls as an app. Rolls were very dense and not that hot. They need to work on this - pretty disappointing. Shrimp rolls were nice and hot and came with 2 sauces. For entree, I got the Huntley burger and my husband got Cabernet Braised Short Rib. Burger was cooked to my specified temp (MW) and my husband thought the Short rib was great. Tried Smore tart for dessert which was good but bottom pastry was as hard as a rock. Service was good and interior was very nice and comfortable. Just little tweaks ( especially the rolls) needed to make this a 5 star meal. read more

Great service and great ambiance but food was overpriced and underwhelming. The servers were nice and friendly. I liked the flatbread and farmer's salad! The lobster pasta was spicy and had a sauce that was both pasty and thicker than it should have been! The dessert we tried was a chocolate pie that tasted like jello brand chocolate pudding! Wouldn't go back!. Overall not a great place for a birthday celebration! But it was popular lots of people. read more

Amazing food and service. I told our waitress that we were having a long needed night out as we have a two year old and she brought over two glasses of Prosecco. Highly recommend!! read more

This was my first visit to Huntley Taverne. It was on a Saturday at 3pm after a nearby hike. There was no seating available at the bar (which had no television) so I was seated on the enclosed porch. I had planned to order noodles which was on their online menu but wasn't on the menu I received. I ordered my second choice of Wood-fired Flatbreads Pepperoni & Hot Honey, so basically pizza. It's a full meal but cut into 8 bite-sized squares so it can be a group appetizer as well. I enjoyed my meal while watching the busy car wash employees across the street and listening to Christmas music. I love hot honey on pizza so the meal was great but pricey. read more

Impressive and lovely tavern with a colonial feel. Lots of seating upstairs and downstairs and in the front porch where we dined. My daughter and I were searching for a nice tavern to go have lunch that wasn't too far away. Of course we opened yelp and found this lovely tavern in Summit New Jersey The first impressions were great as we were seated. Staff was lovely and helpful and attentive. We were there around 3:30 p.m. so basically we made it in time for lunch. For starters we ordered the shrimp wontons. I ordered seared scallops over kale and gnocchi and my daughter ordered the baked pork chops that came with an oriental noodle. She also ordered the macaroni and cheese. The shrimp wontons were amazing. Great flavor and the shrimp inside the wontons was perfectly cooked. My scallops were seared to perfection and there were pieces of bacon in the kale which stole the show. They need to sell this bacon as an appetizer on its own because it was truly delicious. My daughter's pork chop was a little tough and flavorless but everything else was great. The macaroni and cheese was good not exceptional but it was good. We also ordered dessert. I ordered the strawberry shortcake and my daughter ordered a caramel ice cream Sundae. My strawberry cake was amazingly good. The pound cake on the bottom was warm and the strawberries were not that sweet which made it incredibly good. My daughters ice cream sundae was not as good. Unfortunately they use gelato to make the Sunday. The gelato was extremely sweet and did not taste like vanilla at all. My daughter bought it to the attention of the manager that the ice cream did not taste like ice cream and he confirmed that it wasn't ice cream it was gelato so that was a disappointment. But overall a very good meal. I'm glad my daughter found this cozy colonial tavern. We will definitely be coming back to dine again. read more

Food service and ambiance were all at or above my expectations. We took our time ordering, eating, and paying and the wait staff never once rushed us. My husband asked ridiculous questions of the waitress and she never once rolled her eyes (I can't say the same for myself though). The pork chop was quite delightful, and definitely get the cinnamon roll bread pudding. Nice touch with mocktail menu. I didn't take pictures of the food because that would be pretty cringey since we were dining with friends for the first time. read more

Service and atmosphere are excellent. Food used to be perfect. However, they recently started reducing their portions significantly and cutting corners with the food. Nice as the presentation was, veggies were undercooked and potatoes were tasteless. As you can image, the prices have not gone down. This restaurant is part of a major conglomerate and not struggling for money. The American way, I guess. read more

The food and, drinks were really good and the ambiance was nice. The service was really good too everyone was attentive. My husband and I came for a date night and enjoyed ourselves. Our faves: the spring rolls, the burrata and that lobster pasta dish!!!the Mushroom flatbread was our least favorite and the calamari salad was yummy but a few pieces were tough, but we'll be back for sure :) read more

Come to Huntley for celebrations and customer dinners. It is a great place for either kind of night. Drinks are always amazing and the food is delicious. My favorite dessert and must have is the ice cream with popcorn and potato chips- the perfect savory and a sweet. read more

So cozy and so swanky! The Huntley Taverne feels like an upscale ski lodge. From the moment I walked in I was swooning over the stone fireplaces and high wood beam ceilings. The interior is very large - there are a few big dining rooms, a spacious bar area and a private upstairs level that you can rent out for events. Despite the large space it's still hard to snag a table. On a Friday at around 8 PM it was absolutely packed. But, for good reason. The food here is next level. All of the mains sounded so delicious that we didn't even start with an appetizer and instead skipped right to the main event. Well, we did start with cocktails (of course). My pear mule was tangy and refreshing. For my entree I ordered scallops- served in a brown butter sauce with butternut squash and broccoli. The scallops were extremely tender and fresh and tasted incredible topped with the butternut squash puree. I usually don't have food envy with my fiance but this time around I definitely did. When he ordered the pork chop I was initially skeptical (not always my favorite) but this ended up being the best pork I've ever had. Sweet, flavorful and like a classier version of boneless pork spare ribs that you'd order from a Chinese restaurant. This was served with a crunchy purple cabbage slaw. Entrees are pricey, most are in between 30-40. But from what I could tell all of their meat and seafood is very high quality. The only small snafu was a service issue - they forgot to bring us out a side dish that we had ordered with our entree. But, not a huge deal and they did end up comping it off the bill which was a nice gesture. Amidst Summit's wide variety of nice restaurants, be sure not to overlook Huntley Tavern. read more

I love Huntley Taverne, especially in the winter time. Immediately upon walking inside the bar area, you notice the beautiful fireplace creating a warm and cozy ambiance. The place itself is quite large, and has two dining room areas downstairs along with a bar/lounge area and an upstairs area. The first time I was here we sat inside to the right of the entryway. The second time I dined here, we sat in the patio area past the bar. I was a little nervous we would freeze our tails off in the blistery February weather, but the area was heated by overhead heat lamps, and I found myself very comfortable! The service throughout our meal was nothing short of perfect. Jennifer and Michael were both friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Michael always came over with a warm, friendly smile, and was more than happy to make some excellent suggestions on the menu. Immediately upon seated we were given some warm, freshly baked sesame seed rolls with delicious butter. Perfect for a cold evening! The winter cocktail menu was exceptional, but I went some wine instead. Their wines by the glass menu, as well as their beer menu is pretty extensive! For dinner we decided to split the angry shrimp spring rolls, and the crispy calamari salad between the four of us. I have had both dishes before and can safely say, they are excellent. While Michael made some excellent dinner recommendations, mainly focused on meat options, I went ahead with the day-boat scallops. The dish came with 6 medium sized scallops with broccoli and pureed and roasted butternut squash. I was worried the dish wouldn't be super filling, but I was stuffed! It was hard to pass up some of their side dishes though, bread pudding, mac and cheese and bourbon maple sweet potatoes...wow. read more

A solid 4 in all areas. Nice atmosphere. The porch is a nice place to eat. Variety of food changes with the seasons - good!

We drove all the way from PA on way to Bklyn. Saw the reviews and said it sounds great. When we arrived my family and I were greeted however they stated they had no room for a party of 5. As I scanned the room the place looked half empty and they had plenty of workers serving guest. In stead of saying there was a wait time for a table they just stated they could not accommodate us. Unfortunately I felt they did not want to serve us. I get it -- no one inside looked like us and the feeling was very cold. Normally I would not write this type of review, however this time I felt the need to voice my opinion. With me ( unknown to them )was my sister in law The head of Rochester OGBYN, my daughter PA in SI , another Sister-in-law retired and my Wife a NICU Nurse and myself retired club owner. I'm upset but more sad for them. read more

Very good food. A tad overpriced. But then again, you're in Summit, so I guess you're paying for the town you're in.

The kitchen is getting it done, but the front of the house is letting them down. I went there tonight, with my wife for our 19th anniversary, at the place where I proposed to her. She was very disappointed, but not with the food. For apps, we had the Wood Roasted BBQ cauliflower, the Burrata with roasted root veggies, and the Fig & Pear Flatbread. All of them were delicious. The cauliflower could have been cooked a tad more, as some of the pieces were pretty al dente, but the white sauce on them was really flavorful with just a little heat. The burrata was soft, tangy and slightly sweet and paired perfectly with the toast and flavor-packed burrata. The flatbread had the perfect texture, was seasoned well and generously coated with the fig jam, pear and arugula. We enjoyed it very much, but I think the bleu cheese was too spare so you don't get much of that flavor, and maybe more Crispy Prosciutto would improve it even more. For entrée my wife got the Short Rib with whipped potatoes and parsnips. I got the roasted duct breast. Both were cooked perfectly with excellent sauces. The accompaniments on the plate were also so tasty. Not one criticism about the dinner. But our enjoyment was tempered by the experience at the table. We were seated right at our reservation time, and the place was packed. Everyone looked to be working hard, as it was extremely busy. But after being seated, they took our drink order right away, got wine glasses and then that was it for quite a while. 15 minutes later we got our wine, and 25 minutes after we were seated we got to order. It was also strange no water was given or offered. Not sure what that's about. Anyway, once our order was in, the kitchen got the food pumped out on time. We got apps quickly, then the flatbread right on top of that, then the dinners at just the right time, if not maybe a couple minutes early, No big deal, and better to the food a little early then having to wait. But while we were eating, it was very hard to get the attention of our server. Even when he was at tables right near us, as soon as he was done with them he b-lined it right out of the room without lifting his eyes so there was no way to get his attention. He was very busy so I don't blame the guy. They seemed to be short-handed, as I saw the maitre d setting a table. So I understand these problems if they have a staffing issue, but I have to rate the customer experience, which my wife was less than happy with. With tipping our server, this was $250 for 2 people. For that kind of money, I need this to be a more fine-dining experience. Your kitchen makes delicious food and gets it pumped out on time. The service experience at the table has to be improved. read more

I met a friend from many years ago to catch up and we decided on this place because it was mutually convenient. I had been here many times over the years for a couple of drinks but never for a meal. My loss. Very charming and quaint feel when you walk in and there is a nice fireplace for the colder days. There is a nice size bar with lots of seating. We began with some appetizers. We ordered the Parker House rolls, the edamame dumplings, the angry shrimp rolls, and the calamari salad. We like to eat in case you didn't notice. Excellent choices. The Parker House rolls were a bit on the dryer side but did have enough salt and butter. The rest of the appetizers were fantastic. Very tasty. Cooked fresh. The Thai chili dressing on the calamari salad was excellent. The edamame dumplings might have been the best of the bunch. We each ordered the ginger soy salmon for our main course. It came with Jasmine rice and Kale. Fantastic. Tasty, char grilled, and cooked to perfection. Every bite had the ginger soy taste. We were to stuffed for dessert. The prices are on the higher side but its worth the experience. The food was fantastic. The service was excellent and friendly. There is plenty of parking in their private parking lot. It's not in downtown Summit. read more

I keep hope alive that Huntley's will return to the place I once loved. Today was ehhh... burgers seasoned well. Not so greasy. Fries literally thrown on the plate, with several falling on to the floor as we were being served. Ordered two lemonades. We were literally served SOUR MIX. And was told there was no sugar... huh??? So I asked for simple syrup, thinking the drinks would be re-made. Nope... a cocktail glass with simple syrup was brought to the table and poured into the drinks to be stirred with the straw. Come back to me Huntley's... back when the food was delicious and innovative. When service was top notch. Come back to me!!! read more

Very nice service and wonderful menu. The drink selection both non alcoholic and alcoholic is delicious.

Got there a little early and found a restaurant that gave no signs that the pandemic even existed. Two tops ( tables for 2) right on top of one another!!! Crowded bar. ZERO social distancing anywhere. No thank you Huntley Tavern!!!! Your interest in making money obviously outweighs any concerns you have for public safety...... read more

A great restaurant, and a great lunch. My fiance and I love the Addams Tavern, so we decided to try it here and were not disappointed. We were seated on the porch, which was beautiful and the perfect temperature on a hot day thanks to a combination of AC, the fans, and the open windows. Our server was friendly and attentive. I went with The Huntley Burger and was glad that I did. It's not just a regular burger - pancetta, crumbled bleu cheese, and grilled onions come together to make this a heaping, satisfying burger. The truffled fries on the side are just an added bonus. Overall, a great meal in a great setting. Next time we're in the area, The Huntley Taverne will remain one of our top options. read more
