I had my birthday dinner here about a month ago. The place is beautiful & comfortable. Everyone working there was nice & kind. The food was delicious. They surprised me with chocolate strawberries & a candle when they found out it was my birthday which was very nice. I would definitely come back for more. I can't wait to see what they would do with the nice garden area outside when the weather gets warmer. I wish they open up for lunch or at least weekend brunch so I can come with my girlfriends.
We love the Spring house! It has excellent Mediterranean and European menu influences, specifically Italian. The produce is fresh, and the food is clean and precise. This is our third visit, and the service has improved significantly, now matching the great ambiance and food. Highly recommended!
Spring House in Tenafly has improved so much since it first opened! The food is now consistently delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. Service has gotten a lot better too—staff are friendly, attentive, and make the experience feel welcoming. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a night out with friends or family. It is a little on the pricey side, but the quality of the food and overall dining experience make it worth it. Definitely one of the better spots in Tenafly now. Highly recommend!
This place is a gem!! From the moment you walk in, the historic charm of the building mixed with modern elegance sets the stage for a truly special dining experience. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of cozy indoor seating. Whether you're looking for an intimate date night or a lively evening out, this place has it all. Now, let's talk about the food—simply outstanding! Every dish is crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the passion in every bite. The Cacio e Pepe was rich and flavorful, while the Cotoletta Alla Milanese was refreshing and filling. Pairing it with one of their expertly crafted cocktails made the meal even better. The service was as good as you’d expect for a busy Saturday night —attentive but not intrusive. Spring House is truly a must-visit, whether you're planning a romantic night out or just looking for an unforgettable meal. Highly recommend!
The inside atmosphere was great and warming. We came here for a holiday dinner with family and the food came out at a good pace, and Evander was very friendly. I would recommend the steak frites and breadbasket!
Such a charming Mediterranean spot in Tenafly! I love how they transformed a historical house into a cozy, inviting restaurant — it really adds character and warmth to the experience. Valet parking is the only option, which was convenient but good to know in advance. My friend and I arrived early, and the staff kindly invited us to wait at the bar with drinks, which was a nice gesture. The drinks were fine, and the food was pretty good overall. The atmosphere was definitely the highlight — warm, relaxed, and perfect for our birthday dinner. We brought our own cake to celebrate, and there was a $5 per person cake-cutting fee. The total bill came out to over $600 for six people, so it’s definitely on the pricier side. Still, we all had a great time and would come back for the unique setting and good vibes.
Alicia was an amazing server! She gave amazing recommendations, made us feel so comfortable, and made our daughters birthday so special. Everything from the apps, entrees, and dessert was delicious and the cocktails didn’t disappoint either. Alicia did an amazing job making us feel like home, there was not one part of this experience that disappointed. Can’t wait to come back again!
Spring House Tenafly is a must-try, especially if you have little ones! The food was outstanding—seriously, the cacio e pepe was absolutely amazing, and the shishito peppers were a perfect savory starter. Plus, they have a really solid kids menu, which makes family dinner totally stress-free. Highly recommend!
This restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the beautiful decor and cozy ambiance. The food was nothing short of amazing every dish was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. We started with the grilled octopus and the Lighthouse calamari, both of which were cooked to perfection. For our main courses, I had the Cognac shrimp tale, and my husband had the branzino with a Caesar salad. Every bite was so delicious that we had nothing left to take home! The entire experience was fantastic, from the warm and welcoming atmosphere to the impeccable service, chef Paco was incredibly kind and attentive to us. Also, our waiter (Israel) took great care of us. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this place for a date night or any special occasion. A must-visit for Italian food lovers!
First time here and it definitely did not disappoint!! We had an amazing waiter named Jarrit who I highly recommend!!! He was so attentive and helped with ordering when we had questions. The food was spectacular, same with drinks. Menu is relatively small but great choices. DJ goes on at 8 pm on Fridays so we had some fun music. Definitely will be coming back!!
