The food was fantastic and the service was impeccable! I would highly recommend this restaurant.6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMWorth the driveThe Pluckemin Inn has a beautiful garden that leads you inside to a beautiful meal. The menu is varied and you can choose either a la carte or a prix fixed lunch. Service was right up there with the waiters refilling your water glasses and giving you time in between courses to talk and digest.
This restaurant offers you pashmina shawls if one is too cold or reading glasses if you have left yours at home. They think of even the minutest detail and should be commended for it.
I had mentioned we were celebrating a birthday. The waiter arrived with a chocolate Happy Birthday scripted on a plate with homemade cookies for my guest.5/28/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have reviewed them before,We have reviewed them before, always with high praise in all categories...

I wish there were a sushi place nearby that had the quality of their sashimi and tartare. And Brian always helps with a special bottle of wine from one of the best wine cellars who will ever find. Thank you, Pluckemin Inn.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our first time afterThis was our first time after receiving many recommendations from friends as we are new to the area.

What can we say.4/30/2013 12:00:00 AMA New FavoriteTop Notch dining experience. Seated in downstairs wineroom. A bit cool so be prepared but they had a selection of shawls for the women! The pris fixe tasting menu was worth every penny - good wine pairings and superbly prepared menu. Excellent wait staff - knowledgeable and friendly but not overly so - pleasant and professional.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMVery, very good but not exceptionalThe Pluckemin Inn is a place to go when you want a good meal and good service without a lot of background noise. The noise level is just right - it's definitely not quiet, which would make me self-conscious in a conversation, and it's definitely not noisy which would take away from the ambience. Their fish dishes come in two sizes - appetizer and entree. One of our party ordered the dinner size of the salmon and was given the appetizer size. He sent it back and we waited while they cooked a new one and I guess they were in a hurry because they brought it out and it was barely cooked. Other than that everything was delicious and the presentations are lovely.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Pluckemin Inn continuesThe Pluckemin Inn continues to impress, even at lunch. I felt like fish, but it wasn't on the menu. The server offered to check in the kitchen to see what they had. They came back with Halibut with roasted brussel sprouts and asparagus...it was superb.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a very nice time.We had a very nice time. The food was great, and I was happy I took my wife there for my anniversary. The only negative Ihave is that the table for two was pretty long. I felt like my wife was a mile away and we had to raise our voices to have a conversation.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMWent with a small businessWent with a small business group and it didn't let us down.

It's always a pleasure to dine at "the Plucky."4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe live in Bergen County andWe live in Bergen County and have dear friends in Princeton, so are always looking for a wonderful midway place for a relaxing dinner together. We found it last Saturday at the Pluckemin Inn: excellent food beautifully prepared and presented, superb, well-timed service. Despite the fact that the Inn was busy, no one rushed us once. The ambiance is lovely, extremely comfortable but beautiful. The wine list was enormous, two veritable encyclopedias of red/white wines, and while not bargain priced, was very fair. It could hardly have been a better experience, and we will return soon.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Pluckemin Inn never disappointsThe Pluckemin Inn never disappoints. We go here every year for our anniversary and always enjoy ourselves. The food is fantastic and the service attentive.

It is quite expensive, but worth the price, especially for a special occasion.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfectly Pluckemin'd!From the moment we arrived (the valet really wanted to park our car!), we knew we'd be well looked after. Service was discreet, yet complete. Each course of our prix fixe was beautifully introduced to us, along with the perfectly-paired wine with each. Portions were perfect, although a he-man might disagree. Glad to have found a gem!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMOverall this was a very niceOverall this was a very nice place and the service was great. The food was a bit overpriced, because the execution of the dishes just werent quiete right. For example i ordered the scallops, they were not over cooked (which was great) but they were missing the brown beautiful sear.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMAs always,a great experienceAs always,a great experience from the time you reach the Restaurant until the time you leave the Restaurant ,excellent food ,excellent wine, excellent service.
