   We started off with the Sushi and Lobster dumplings which were very good. There was 3 of us and the main meals were just ok, nothing great. We had one meal that the server forgot to put in. At times we didn’t see our server for a long time. The location of the restaurant is incredible.

   Food was underwhelming and didn’t meet expectations. Service was ok, but having the table next to you elbow width apart was annoying.

   My experience at David’s Burke 1776 was extremely outstanding. The food was out of this world and staff is very personal. I highly recommend this place to everyone and yes they have valet parking. It’s also have a good location located in Morristown across the street from the park a.k.a the square. I will definitely be back!

   We were pleased with the service of our waitress and the quality of our meals. It was a lovely day with the doors open to enjoy the weather.

   Don’t think it’s worth it at all. Caesar/kale salad didn’t have enough dressing on it and the kale was overpowering. My husband ordered steak that was supposed to be medium, it came out rare. My steak was supposed to be medium well and it was burnt. The only good food was the side dishes - French fries and the mashed potatoes. The computers went down while we were there so they couldn’t print our check or run the credit cards. The 5 managers I’m guessing, made it very noticeable that was issues going on. They were talking very loud, and telling the staff what was going on right there in front of people sitting at their tables! This should have been handled out of site. They wanted us to write down our credit card number on a the back of the bill, umm no thank you! You can go down the street and get better service, food and cheaper at Chef Freddys or Roots.

   I have been to at least 4 of David Burke's other dining places so when I heard he had opened in Morristown we jumped at a chance to eat there. All of his other places had good food and an ambience that was very pleasant. This is a loud bar atmosphere and the meal was inconsistent. When we told the server the there was a problem with the mussels they merely nodded their head and took the dish away. I would have expected a bit more concern for our issue. That will probably speak volumes about the place.

    We took advantage of “Burger night”. I ordered a Cosmopolitan to start and requested “very light cranberry juice”. The drink came back as pink as could be. This wasn’t the first time that this happened here. So maybe they just ignore those type of drink requests. But at the very high cost of the drink they really need to get this right. I had the guacamole and chips as my appetizer. It was good. Others in my party ordered the available salads which they enjoyed. As for the burgers - they weren’t cooked to our preference. I ordered a medium rare burger and it was more like medium well. The accompanying French fries were cold and inedible. I am not sure I will give them another chance.

    This restaurant insisting that we order all our food at once which is NOT customer centric. Overall the food and ambiance are good but that rule is ridiculous!

    Highlights are location, ambience and service. Bartenders can be outstanding and creative but not consistent as they “run out” of key ingredients for several drinks on multiple occasions. Food quality is good, but creativity is below what you’d expect. Value is low as you’re paying high price for the location, ambience and it being “the new place to be” right now.

    Excellent restaurant for food, ambiance and great energy! Loved the clothesline bacon and the popovers which are HUGE! The filet mignon and the "special" lamb chops were terrific. As well as the vegetable pizza for our vegetarian. All delicious and perfectly cooked. Enjoyed the drinks and the many dessert options. Looking forward to going back.

    We’ve dined here a couple of times and both have been exceedingly good. The roasted chicken is like no chicken we’ve ever had. David Burke’s roasting method allows for all the dark meat juices to permeate the white meat so everything is moist and packed with flavor. The tin can cake for dessert is an experience. The cake is warm and deep chocolatey served with health bar crumbles and whipped cream with a side of vanilla brown butter ice cream. Three of us split it and still had some leftover. Try for a booth facing the kitchen for a comfortable seat.

    Food was ok but service was absolutely mediocre—the staff needs better training including the managers. Everyone looks overwhelmed and unable to follow basic etiquette with things like coursing the meal and not clearing the table before everyone is finished eating. Zero regard for how customers feel and just rushed the entire night. Terrible service. So disappointing and so many better places to go.

    One of the most disappointing dinning experiences in a while. We had high hopes of enjoying a mid week night out dinner and selected 1776 assuming it would be an elevated fine dining experience. Totally not what we experienced. Most disappointing was the food. The wedge salad was meager and uninteresting. The lobster dumplings were hard and flavorless. My husbands Branzino was plain. My “dry aged” NY strip was tough and also lacked flavor. The fries were the most interesting of the items we tasted. Our martinis were both significantly watered down. I had to order a shot of grey goose to add to at least enjoy the drink. The server was warm and professional. Though the management and protocols seemed lacking to provide a higher end experience. The parking situation is also very odd. The underground parking is a building away from the actual restaurant so you need to go up an unmarked elevator to a random and unmarked floor, ask security to then be given instructions to walk down a long corridor, exit the building to the outdoors and then re-enter a mall/commercial space where the restaurant is located. Never again.

    Underwhelming. Great location and nice atmosphere, but there was nothing special about our visit. We started with a cocktail at the bar, apparently our bartender was in training and was understandably confused and maybe overwhelmed. Very friendly though. We were seated at a nice cozy table with a nice view of Morristown nightlife. We started with the lobster dumplings which were just ok, and the kale Caesar salad, which was fine. Entrees were salmon and lobster, neither lived up to our expectations. The general tso’s broccoli and cauliflower was also a disappointment. With tip and a $125 bottle of wine, the total was $340. At that price point I would expect that at least one of the dishes would’ve impressed.

    I had expected to have a great meal so we arrived on a very positive way. The premises itself is nice and fairly attractive. The staff welcome was professional and effective. The menu is interesting and well worth a read. The wine list is rather conservative if you compare to other high level eateries in town. The cocktails were good and well prepared. We tried a good number of their appetizers and while the bacon and popovers were great our other 4 dishes just lacked flavor snd delicacy. Nice ideas but poorly executed. Our main courses were worse. The lobster was rubber, the salmon just not great and my steak ordered medium rare was well done. I sent the steak back saying to the server not to bother replacing it as I didn’t want the table to wait. Some 5 minutes later she comes back with a steak anyway - which had obviously been cooked in a rush as it was almost crispy outside snd very rare in the middle. Bad to mess up but worse to mess up the mess up. The cotton candy desert was nice but the chocolate lollipops with it were mostly not very nice. To cap the evening our server forgot to bring the last drinks ordered and then when we went pay they ran my credit card for another table and had to void that transaction, Overall the food was just not very good. It is almost as if there were some good ideas but no subtlety in their execution. The service, while pleasant, was poor. The ambiance is nice but my guests complained they were cold. Overall - just not good enough for the price point and a grave disappointment.

    Can’t justify the cost unless special occasion or business expense. Over-priced. Can have as good of a meal for far less at Rails or Prime 94.

    Food was amazing as was the ambience. The bread service has beautiful puffy popovers! The general tso cauliflower and broccoli was unexpectedly delicious - battered, fried and crispy! The tin can cake and homemade ice cream with creme anglais, whip, and crunchies were great to share at the table!

    We were so disappointed when the hostess seated us by the bar with the music blasting so we could not hear each other talk. We asked the waiter if we could move. He said he would ask the host. The host said no all the other tables were reserved, but they would lower the music for us. (We also had reservations.) We asked for the manager. He came over and said they lowered the music and walked away. 2 minutes later, the music is turned up again. We again complain to the waiter. They lower the music. 5 minutes later, the music is blasting again. We paid $200 for dinner for 2 and couldn’t even have a conversation. So disappointed in the service and manager’s lack of caring. The food was delicious but the experience was terrible.

    I've been at 1776 twice and I love the place. David Burke himself is there from time to time to greet customer and even make accommodations. Both food and service our outstanding. The ambiance is chic and fun, it even has a city vibe in the heart of New Jersey. Highly recommended!

    The food was very good but the waitress insisted that we give the entire order all at once so that the kitchen could stagger the food. I asked that the food be staggered because many previous times at different restaurants they don’t do it. And it happened again this guy comes out with this cart with all the appetizers and our main meals all at once. We were at a small table and they couldn’t even fit all the food on the table they had to put some on the table nearby. One of the entrées we ordered was the cavatelli with truffle. I asked if they used truffle oil or real truffles, The waitress said oh no we use real stuff here there’s lots of truffles on it. When it came out there were no truffles just regular mushrooms and truffle oil.
