At first, we thought the restaurant might be just an attachment to the golf course. After dining there, we found the brunch is actually very delicious. Such a nice cozy place to dine in.
Great place to go alone or with friends and family! Food and drinks are exceptional and esthetically pleasing to the eye and palate, attentive and pleasant staff. Friday nights are the best for live music with E.R.I.C. Once his performance begins, it's a party and difficult to stay in your seat! Not many places exist where one can eat, drink, sing and dance all in one place. A must-see experience!
I've eaten here multiple times and the food is really top notch. I usually opt for the veal Milanese, which is a huge breaded chop topped with a wonderful arugula salad. For a change of pace, I tried the giant meatball (appetizer) with vodka sauce. It is AWESOME. Tender flavorful meatball the size of a softball, stuffed on the inside with cheese and topped with even more cheese! Served with a couple pieces of toasted buttery bread, which are perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce.
Par 440 Restaurant and Lounge is a beautiful venue on the East Orange Golf Course located in Short Hills NJ. They have really great service even when 100 people descended upon the front door at the start of the event. They always seem to be in control. The food is reasonably priced and it's always served in a timely manner and it's always the right temperature. Great drinks at a great price. Highly recommend it as a place for dinner or just a drink. Great environment and restrooms are always clean. And the live music by MPACK and other bands is wonderful.
I went here for a fundraiser they had about 7 different hors d'oeuvres all were good the waiters kept them coming .I ordered the duck lollipops , cheeseburger , watermelon salad , spicy cauliflower and the wings all were very good . The waiters and staff kept the inside and outside clean. I recommend this place if you want to rent for a private party or just go for dinner .
