Over the past few weeks, our team has worked hard to compile a list of the 50 best restaurants in New Jersey’s northern counties — Essex, Morris, Hudson, Bergen, Passaic, Sussex, Union, Somerset, and Warren. Our picks include sit-down restaurants we think you must try at least once that have both great food and ambiance. We won’t spoil the full list, but here are a few spots that made the cut:

As always, we write about the best spots around NJ every day on our site, TheMontclairGirl.com. We’re a team of locals that love to explore and learn about all the things happening in Montclair, Essex County, and beyond. There’s also an ongoing calendar of events you can peruse each weekend here, and of course — add your own! It’s a free community resource.
