Place was very crowded so we had to eat in the bar, but that really was not an issue. The lady bartender took very good care of us, and the life entertainment in the bar was an added bonus. Food was excellent; a delightful evening!

This was my fourth of fifth time to Bareli's. It's a great spot for a special occasion. Generally the service is outstanding, as well as the food and drinks. Hard to believe anyone would go to the Olive Garden across the street when you have Bareli's right here, but I also understand the OG is a different price point. Fried calamari appetizer was delicious. My GF got the gnocchi and I got the chicken francese. Classic Italian dishes that were cooked to perfection. Would highly recommend Bareli's to anyone who wants some legitimately great Italian food in Secaucus. There's literally no competition within miles.

Bareli's was a great experience! I went here to celebrate my bithday with husband and mom. We went on a Saturday which was great because there was live music! The atmosphere was private and not too loud so we could hear our conversations. The food was phenomenal, we ordered the branzino, chicken special, and ribeye steak - all were delicious. You do have to order everything together and the food did take a bit to come out but it was very tasty and worth the wait.

This is our second time here and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Restaurant was decorated beautifully for Valentine’s Day which made it feel very welcoming and special. We ordered oysters, grilled octopus and calamari to start. Everything was fresh and delicious. For our meals we had the red snapper special and the seared scallops. Everything was hot and meal was timed perfectly. For dessert we enjoyed espresso martinis and one of the best crème brûlée we have had. My only critique is the 2 top tables were so wide- it felt like we were sitting so far away from each other. Besides that everything was great.

Unbelievable food! Great ambiance, as well. My only problem was the service. It took 35 minutes to get our first drink, after that we ordered a 2nd one before our dinner came and didn’t receive it until well after dinner. It was pretty odd.

Our first time at Bareli's was a revelation! We chose it as the place to dine before heading into NYC for a show. A delicious, curated menu, generous cocktails and classic waiter service made our pre-show dining experience perfect! Adding to the atmosphere, Bareli had a two-piece combo playing upbeat music for the house. The real bonus, besides free valet parking: Missing the crush of traffic into the city!

Food was good, value acceptable. Staff was poor, as the waiter were sooo distracted (I had to order the wine menu four times before receiving it...). And be aware the staff are not wearing masks (I'd encourage Management to reconsider this practice, at least for the time being).
