   This was a milestone birthday celebration for a family member. The food and service were outstanding. Expensive. The one downside - and it’s a big one for this upscale restaurant- is the incredibly LOUD music ranging from pulsating disco to Big Band. Crazy loud like a nightclub. It really cast a pall over what would have been a delightful meal.

    Ristorante MV nestled in the town of Bernardsville, New Jersey is a hidden gem. My friend Elvis told me back in September that he loves this restaurant. We were meeting up with dear friends that live in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and wanted to meet up for lunch. They asked if I could find a restaurant in the middle-somewhere between where we live in NY and where they live. So I looked up Ristorante MV and it was perfect in terms of distance for both families. We arrived and first made a visit to Barbara at Trattoria MV-a more casual dining area. She was so friendly and greeted us with a smile. We then made our way to Ristorante MV-a beautiful destination to dine. Our waiter-Michael was amazing! He was professional, courteous and knowledgeable about the restaurant’s history and cuisine. We all loved the incredible array of bread, appetizers, and entrees. I absolutely loved the Chicken Parmigiana-the best I have ever tasted! My friend Ro-Ro loved the Spaghetti Carbonara. Everyone enjoyed every element of our dining experience. I highly recommend if you are in NJ, make a reservation at Ristorante MV, you will love it! Thank you Ristorante MV for a spectacular lunch today!

    Beautiful atmosphere but food not anything to write home about. I ordered the pork chop special and my wife veal. Pork came out raw. When I cut it the server ran over and grabbed the plate saying don’t eat that it needs to be cooked more! It was raw. I have never had that experience before in any restaurant. 20 minutes later my pork was finally done. My wife had finished her meal by then. When the pork came out it was average at best. Wife’s veal was ok she said. Dessert was average. For a $400 meal they could have done much better. Honestly don’t know what all the rage about this place is.

    The restaurant was overbooked and the hostess did the best she could under the circumstances. What was the most upsetting part of the evening was the 150 charge per person plus an automatic 20% Gratuity. If the menu had been anything exceptional, possibly that price could be somewhat justified. What the menu offered was insulting, not choices for what is to be an upscale restaurant. Not one piece of meat, mediocre pasta and fish, limited sub standard appetizers. The patrons at this dinner were exploited. We were 3 people looking at probably at least a $650 bill for an orange salad, cavatelli bolognese, and a piece of cheesecake. Very upsetting. We walked out and at this point it was too late to go anywhere else.

    First I must say was that the food, as always, was fantastic! We had a wonderful time last year on Christmas Eve and were hoping to repeat the experience this year. We made our reservation MONTHS in advance and arrived 30 minutes early for our 7PM reservation. It was very busy (Christmas Eve) and they asked us to wait in the bar for our table, and kept telling us it would be soon. We saw friends in the bar so we enjoyed chatting until our table was ready. It took 2 HOURS! We were finally seated at 9PM. We knew it was a Prix Fixe dinner at $150 per person for the 3 of us. When the bill arrived we were charged $750 for dinner ($250 per person), plus drinks! I pointed this out to the waiter and the bill was adjusted back to $150 per person. I can understand small errors in a handwritten dinner bill but a small part of me thinks that someone was trying to slip something past us. Again, it was Christmas Eve and it was packed...but this sounds like poor table management and somewhat suspicious accounting! YOU WILL LOVE THE FOOD....JUST CHECK THE BILL CAREFULLY!!

    Xmas Eve Dinner was disappointing! Had a prefixed menu, very limited and $150 per person without tip or drink. I could not get macaroni w my dinner! It was so cold my daughter ate w her jacket on. It felt very rushed and had to order three courses as soon as we were seated. Saw one family get up and leave after looking at the menu. Wish we had followed them! They should have mentioned the limited menu on Open Table or their website! Not cool and we typically love MV. ;(

    Overall a very nice experience with the helpful and friendly staff. The ambience of the building inside and out was charming. The problem with this visit is the primary purpose for being there. The food. This where disappointment entered. Unfortunately, the executions of flavor was extreme to the point of disguising the core substance. In this particular case, chicken and fish. Both were prepared to the point of being unsatisfactory. In layman’s terms, dry and tuff. The appetizer of zucchini was visually intriguing but the oil content could have been extracted to lubricate my car engine. This food establishment introducing themselves as a choice venue to this community fell short in delivering culinary expectations. Just my opinion from my first visit.

    Upon arriving for my birthday dinner we were seated next to the kitchen. I asked the hostess if there were any other tables available so we weren’t sitting near the kitchen. She said she would check for us however she never returned even to tell us it wasn’t available. Our server was cold and unfriendly. Not helpful with the menu or suggestions at all. We had to ask an assistant to find our server so we could order our dinner after 30 mins. The food was very good however for the level of dining to warrant such high menu prices, I would expect much better quality of service. I was very much looking forward to this very special birthday dinner but I doubt I would recommend or return.

    We really enjoyed our overall experience! The place was decorated for the holidays so got a festive vibe; the service was attentive and ongoing through the night. The food was absolutely fantastic from start to finish; from the appetizers to the entrees to the desserts! The star of the night was their Carbonara which is phenomenal!!! It's really worth the trip! The only thing that was confusing is the entrance, both for the restaurant and the valet parking; it's not very well marked and does not really offer options for not valeting. I ended up parking across the street which worked out well.

    My wife and I went for lunch on a Friday 12/09/22 at 2 pm. The restaurant was busy with a few large groups that looked like holiday parties. We were greeted and seated immediately. (We had reservations) The bread platter had a variety of fresh breads, which included a tasty tomato focaccia bread, wheat bread, Italian bread, taralli, and bread sticks. All were very tasty! My wife had the Insalate Mista - The greens were fresh and crispy and the dressing was not overwhelming. I had the Fried Zucchini which was more than enough to share. For the main course, I had the Special Pasta with the Bolognese sauce that was outstanding. My wife had the Pasta with Clam Sauce. For dessert we shared chocolate ravioli with cannoli cream which was very interesting and wonderful. Ristorante MV delivers high quality Italian cuisine from beginning to end.

    Food was great and the table service was great. Unfortunately the hostess was not truthful. We asked for a table for two in another part of the restaurant (rather than in the front with low ceilings) and she said two tops are only in the front portion of the restaurant. Later when I went to the restroom I saw tables for two in the more open ambient part of the restaurant.

    Absolutely one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. The food was amazing- just perfect. The atmosphere and ambiance were wonderful. The valet was excellent. The service was good but extremely slow but maybe that was purposeful in order to allow you to savor each course. We waited an extremely long time to get a dessert menu and we had to flag down a waiter to get one. We will definitely be back and just be prepared to allow ample time.

    This is a very nice place and the interior is historic, warm and inviting. The staff was graceful and professional. The food was excellent. We really like the ability to bring our own bottle and the corkage is reasonable at $60. We would go back again. If we had one negative, the music was slightly loud.

    Food, vibe , atmosphere = Exquisite!!! However, the restaurant staff were very poor overall! Everyone from check-in process to our waiter and busboys/busgirl were extremely unpleasant. One of the examples: Even though there were food on our plates (more than half), they came and asked if we were finished several times. Waiter disappeared for a long period of time. After our plates were placed on our table, our waiter failed to ask if we needed anything. The busgirl brought our cappuccinos even though our waiter was standing in the corner. NO SMILES!! The staff made the experience feel like as if we were at a Diner! It is such a disappointment because a beautifully designed restaurant such as MV with superb food deserves an upscale kind of staff. It truly degrades the experience.
