Feedback
Laurel Sage is a local gem in Montclair, offering excellent food with a creative twist. While some have experienced inconsistent dishes and service, many rave about the outstanding food, accommodating staff for food allergies, and pleasant ambiance. Standout dishes include the shrimp and chorizo risotto, short ribs, crab cakes, and kale salad. Customers appreciate the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff. While prices may be a bit high, the quality of ingredients justifies the cost. Overall, Laurel Sage is highly recommended as a top-tier BYOB restaurant for a delightful dining experience.
It’s pretty good overall. But inconsistent- some dishes were very good and some quite mediocre. The short rib that we love so much, was so not good... For the price you’re charged it could be a little tastier.
The food was amazing and they take care of you as soon as you walk into the restaurant! I felt like I was dinning in NYC.
This is the best restaurant in Montclair (a town with no shortage of very solid restaurants) and one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. You should try to eat here.
My wife and I dined at Laurel Sage on March 16th, 2019. The food was outstanding and not your typical fare, which we appreciated. The service was attentive and cordial. The owner (who is the boss's wife) was very gracious. We will definitely return and recommend this restaurant to our daughter when she visits her friend in Nutley. Just a heads up: parking is on the street, not in the lot behind the restaurant, as it is residential.
