Bacari Grill

Fabulous Party! The service was great. Private party for 70th birthday. Food was amazing; I couldn't get enough of almond chicken! Wait staff was very quick to replace and bring new drinks and plates.

The only reason i only gave 3 stars was because of how uncomfortable the seating was. Covid or no covid they crowd the tables in way to tightly. My husband couldnt even move is chair to get out of his seat.

I had my Baby Shower this past weekend in the ballroom and it was everything and more than I could have hoped for. The space comfortably accomodated our 70 guests with some addiitonal room to spare. The brunch buffet was AMAZING and the wait staff was superb. I'd also like to shout out Kara, the events coordinator, who organized the whole event, in addition to the Matre D's both Victor & Kevin who went above and beyond to ensure the day was perfect. I would highly reccomend hosting a private event at Bacari Grill. We will DEFINITELY be back :)

I went to Bacari Grill on two occasions and they are just awesome! First time I went was for a wedding reception and the second time was for a baby shower. Both times we had such a good time. I must say, the staff was very attentive on both occasions. The wedding was catered and everything was fresh!. I had a steak and the people at my table,some had the chicken and or salmon. Everyone sent compliments to the Chef. All the food came out as ordered. I don't always give 5 stars,but this establishment is well deserved. Keep up the good work!

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. Everything we ordered was delicious. Fresh fish, great pasta, and a Hazelnut Gelato Sundae that was out of this world. Our waiter was attentive and even put a candle in our dessert when he overheard we were there for my mother's birthday. Great experience.

If you want delicious , flavorful and fresh seafood-this is your spot. The food is delicious. The ambiance is nice. I live in Washington township and NEVER went for dinner here and I have missed out! The sushi , the sea bass and the tuna were outstanding. The apple crumble was simply divine!

I've been wanting to go for a long time and last weekend I was able to get a last-minute reservation for dinner. The space itself is beautiful, a classy, modern vibe. All the tables were taken and the atmosphere was energetic. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the wine menu at the restaurant was much different then what's online. The website menu only shows glasses starting at $24 when in reality I got an 8 1/2 ounce pour of good stuff for only $12.
For an appetizer we shared the grilled octopus over warm white bean salad. This is a fantastic starter with large chunks of octopus cooked

By far, one of my favorites!!! Gorgeous atmosphere whether your at the bar for a drink a d nibble or at a lovely table in the very pleasing dining room. And the food: ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!

Still coming here, & more often than most other Bergen County restaurants,, consistent food, nice ambiance,,,

Had a beautiful dinner with great service. All facets of my meal were delicious. Bartenders make excellent cocktails. Would go back for sure.

Very nice charcuterie board selection... My NY Strip steak although is not dry aged it was cooked exactly to medium and tasted very good. Great scene & ok service but it was suffice. Totally would recommend the place!

Beautiful place! I wish the servers would've worn masks. Other than that, the service was great, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. It was a beautiful space for a bridal shower!

We love this restaurant and either pick up or come in monthly if not more. Very disappointed tonight with the way things played out. My husband went in to the restaurant to make a reservation for early this evening...5:30 and requested a window seat. Not a problem. We got there at 5:35 and they said our reservation was for 5:00 and offered us a seat wedged in a corner with the next table 2 feet away or a table by a wall beam. There were 5 window seatings available. 5! When my husband said something to the hostess the manager came over and said he had taken his reservation and no explanation

Definitely one of my favorite restaurants. Love the ambiance and romantic feel. The food is always delicious. I ordered my favorite dish: penne vodka with chicken. I'm usually very picky when it comes to vodka sauce and this is definitely in my top 3 favorites. For dessert I had the apple crumb which was a perfect way to end the night.

One of the best restaurants I have been to in years. Never fails, always delicious. Food 10/10, Service 10/10, Drinks 9/10. Loved every minute and LOVED the sushi #bacariroll. Has valet and a revamped interior. Check this place out!

I had the pleasure of dining in with about 25 guest on their 2nd floor. It was a wedding reception and the place had ample parking. Be careful when crossing the stones in the parking lot divider. Now, the food was amazing! I had the steak, prepared med and it was juicy 😋 as well as cooked to perfection! My Fiance had the Salmon and it was superb! The pastries were fresh as was the fruit platter! Drinks were also, not watered down. Appetizers were plentiful and the overall experience was very nice! My party also enjoyed, and there were no complaints as some orders had to be special due to allergies

Wow! I can't believe that after 15 years. I got literally SCREAMED at by the owner. I made a reservation a month ago for my daughter's graduation. we walked in to be told that they took a to go order for 25 people for sushi and the in house people can't order sushi now. This is all my daughter wanted. They know us there like Cheers! He pointed his finger at my face and flared a receipt at me and told me he doesn't care what I want. He has an order to fill. I am so shocked by this mans behavior. Barney, Ashley and the whole Bacari team do NOT deserve for their cus of 15 years

Friday night dinner with friends. The service and food were very good. We will return. A bit of delay in getting to our seating time my question for owner's are you allowed to seat at full capacity ?

That's concerning luckily me and my friends are all vaccinated.

Food was delicious, as always. However was greatly disappointed in the service. Our waiter was inattentive, often standing in a corner, and it took 50 minutes after we were seated before he took our appetizer order. He never returned to ask how our meal was. I would have liked dessert, but finally gave up, frustrated at the length of time we waited while he was chatting it up with another table.
****He only wore his mask over his mouth and not over his nose***.
This is only the 2nd time I have eaten indoors since Covid broke, and I won't be returning to this restaurant until I am fully

Loved the atmosphere, it's very classy & modern. A great spot for all occasions (date, girls night, family outing). The open bar area where you can see food prep is a super cool feature. Tables are spaced and very comfortably set up. The wine selection was very good, and the cocktails looked on point. The appetizers were delicious, our faves included the Lobster Cocktail, Beet Salad, and the Philly Fried Calamari. Entrees were super tasty. The Lobster Carbonara, Shrimp & the Chilean Sea Bass were all loved from start to finish. We finished on Nutella Mousse Cake & Semifreddo..

Came here on a girl's night and it was probably one of the best meals we've had together. As mothers, eating last is the norm so going out and splurging on some nice hanger steak, scallops, and lobster cocktail appetizer was VERY relaxing.

We started off with a Cesar salad to share, which they kindly split into two plates for us. During that time, we had fresh bread with garlic butter (yum!) and the lobster cocktail appetizer. The lobster tail was surprisingly very big and the way it was prepared was so so good! I threw a few chunks on my salad which was nice.

After that, we got our

We come here often and always enjoy a great meal. The Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail and Lobster Cocktail are a must. I usually get the Bolognese, steak or the Chicken Milanese and my wife gets the fish. Last week she got the Mahi Mahi special and she said it was amazing. My only suggestion for management is to elevate the pizza doe as it can be a better crust (crispy)

Sophisticated atmosphere, friendly staff, and great food. This is an excellent place to come with your friends and family if you're trying to stay safe during covid. The tables are well distanced from each other, the bar top is closed with the option of sitting at a close by side table, and the waiters/hosts kept their masks on the entire time. I highly recommend the Bolognese and Arugula pizza!

Was good for so long. Last time we went, food took too long to come out. Check was inflated by $60. No explanation why. It was corrected. Table next to us experienced the same "mistake ". Thanks

I have been going there for years with all 10 people in my family and loved everything about it. Now with covid things have obviously changed. Just this past Saturday night I took my grandchildren so my son and daughter in law can have a delicious meal from
Bacari at home and have a date night without going out. Unfortunately my son ordered Penne Vodka and his wife ordered the colossal shrimp. Within 1 hour of her eating the shrimp she had food poisoning. When she called the next day to bring it to their attention the girl who answered the phone said "ok sorry". that's

Been here many times and it only gets better. Tonight's faire for myself...Scallops and for the Mrs., Sea Bass. The scallops were outstanding and sat on a bed of pumpkin almond risotto, with prosciutto breadcrumbs. The crab cake appetizer was also outstanding (and take note of the sweety drop peppers). The sea bass wasn't really spicy as called out, but it was delicious (with house made raisins?). I rarely comment on wine, but the house chardonnay was a winner and went well with both our dishes. Went for an Irish Coffee to finish what was an outstanding night out. Can't help

The Bacari Grill has been around for may years, serving North NJ and NY lunch, dinner, and for large catering events like weddings and other special occasions.
The service and food ( at least in the dining room, as I have never been to a special event here) has a long standing reputation for great service, food, and drinks.
Located minutes from the Garden State Parkway, it is in very nice setting with plenty of parking.
Good bar scene with a great wine list too ( Wine Spectator Award of Excellence)
THE FOOD
I like their menu a lot as it is diverse but not with too any items.
They have amazing

Rushed out not coming back here. You see we were working on our meal. Asked if i wanted to wrap it and we said yes. Why you ask because i was rushed and given an attitude when i walked in. Waiting to leave to even pay the bill. Nothing like rushing to not letting me leave. This place is on downhill it wasn't worth it tonight it's been enough they made us pay for an anniversary Is there at least a few years ago they gave us free per Seco for the both of us.
