  1. In my opinion if you want great food and a beautiful restaurant with great service try the operations owned by the Knowles Family: The Manor, Highlawn Pavilion and Pleasantdale Chateau. In addition to great food Highlawn Pavilion you will have a panoramic view of New York. Pleasantdale Chateau is a Normandy style Chateau and is absolutely gorgeous. And they will work with you on a menu.

  2. Hasn't Julio's only been been open for a few months?

    Julio was located on Ashland Ave (behind the old Edison plant on Main St)in West Orange for 20+ years. He closed in January, 2006 and moved to the Northfield Ave. location and just opened this location in July.

  3. Julio's has several items that are very good on their menu such as their chopped salad, Julio's salad, Shrimp Francese and Abbigal, Chicken and Veal Parm., Chicken Savoy and Francese. If you stick with these items, you will have a good dinner. We have been going to Julio's for many years. Julio is very friendly and accommodating and we enjoy going for a casual dinner.

  4. Highlawn is fortunate to have Mitchell Altholz in the kitchen. We love dining either for lunch or dinner and sitting in the dining room or just sitting at the bar. Some of our favorite dinner selections are:

    Diver Sea Scallops and Prawns with Risotto and Saffron Sauce

    Chicken stuffed with Vegetable Mousse, Baby Spinach and Garlic Mashed Potatoes with Black Truffle Sauce

    Roasted Pork Tenderloin Stuffed with Apricots in a Armagnac Sauce

    Rack of Lamb with Porcini Crust and Thyme Sauce

    Highlawn is also open for lunch, the food is delicious and with very reasonable prices.

    And of course they have excellent desserts, especially chocolate ones!

  5. The Manor in West Orange serves an excellent brunch. Our family loves it and one our favorite items is their Lobster Eggs Benedict. There is a huge selection of hot items and cold and everything is delicious. They also have items available for children.

    The address is :

    111 Propsect Ave.

    West Orange, NJ

    973.731.2360

    Please let us know where you decide to go and how you enjoyed the experience.

  6. What a wonderful restaurant experience we had this past week. The food was great. For appetizers we had an arugula salad and a beggars purse. Both were delicious. The entrees we ordered were striped bass and chicken kiev and they were tasty as well. The staff was professional and pleasant. We will be returning soon.
