Taylor R.

Definitely recommend this burger joint if you're in the Montclair area. It was delicious and filling. I did a create your own burger and ordered fries to share. Their menus are on iPads that are disguised as menu books which I thought was really cool. I took one star off because the servers seemed a little aloof and standoffish as well as for price. There's an option to get wagyu burgers which I think warrants a higher price but everything else seemed a little overpriced to me versus what I was used to.

Impossible Shroom
Christina W.

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with a large group because all other restaurants had a wait. It wasn't too busy so we were seated fairly quickly. The menus are so odd, they're iPads, but you can't order off of them. I ordered the honey brussells and an impossible shroom with added pickles. I'm not a plant based eater, but I was pretty surprised at how good this burger was. It's fairly close to the beef taste and texture, so I devoured it. The honey brussells were just as good and flavorful. The only thing I have to say is that this spot is pretty expensive for what it is, but I'd come back in the future.

Haven't been here in a while so it was nice to see the burgers are just as good as I remember. Prices have gone up slightly, but what hasn't. Service was friendly and quick. It was quiet, with only a couple of other tables being occupied on a Thursday afternoon. I recommend the pickle chips and you really can't go wrong with ANY burger!

Bareburger is cute inside. Sort of industrial style with interesting ceiling fixtures. They were not crowded on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. My sister and I both did Be My Burger (build your own burger). They were pricey, both coming in at nearly $24 each. We did add extras like grilled onions, bacon and vegan cheese so, that increased the price significantly. Our burgers were absolutely delicious. Cooked medium, not salty. We didn't realize they are double burgers so, they were huge. (Side note: we were surprised that there were 2 patties because we didn't request it). We also shared a large order of sweet potato fries which we didn't really need  because the burgers were more than enough. However, the fries were exactly how we like them; skinny and crisp. Service was exceptional and very friendly. We will definitely come back and have recommended Bareburger to my niece who needs to eat gluten free and her husband who prefers veggie burgers. They have many gluten free options and veggie burgers.

Amazing service & delicious food! I dined here on a Monday evening for dinner, and my experience was a good one. The restaurant was 95% empty so it took seconds to get a table. They use iPads for menus which I thought was cool. The waitress we had was very nice and patient with us since we couldn't decide on what to get. We enjoyed everything we ordered! The food was served hot and fresh & didn't take too long to come out. I highly recommend asking for a side of garlic aioli for your fries because it will change your life! It's located downtown Montclair so you know the parking can be a challenge at times. There's metered street parking and a few lots available that are in walking distance. I highly recommend this place for a quick lunch/dinner!

Of all the vegan/plant based burgers I've experienced over the years the beyond meat Bareburger is hands down one of the best I've eaten! You know the ingredients are top notch when you're not tired or still hungry after eating it. Even the sweet potato fries are delicious. They also have ketchup packets without high fructose in them(Such a rare win). At this location customer service was really great. I felt seen & well attended to. Lastly I absolutely love the decor/design of the establishment! Definitely recommend dining in or ordering out.

Ranchero burger in a collard green wrap

The ranchero sandwich is surprising really spicy and the Cesar salad did not look the way it did online. You can tell the dressing isn't that great of quality.

This time, I had their sweet potato burger and fries for the first time. Other times, I've had their vegan burgers, vegan chikn nuggets and vegan milkshakes and I'll tell you this. Every time I'm in Montclair, I have either lunch or dinner here. I've literally been here about 5-6 times within the last 3 months and every time, it is so good. Their bathrooms are always clean (they have 2) and there is always seating available. I love this place! Highly recommend. It is also BYOB.

Review: Café Faubourg - Montclair…read more Café Faubourg is one of Montclair's true gems--an authentic French bistro that feels as if it were lifted straight from a quiet Parisian street and placed right in the heart of town. From the moment you step inside, the ambiance sets the tone: warm lighting, intimate tables, and that unmistakable bistro charm that makes every meal feel like a small escape. The food is consistently excellent, starting with their hummus, which is surprisingly standout for a French spot. Smooth, flavorful, and beautifully plated, it's the perfect way to begin the meal and pairs wonderfully with their fresh bread. The steak frites is a must-order and easily one of the best in the area. The steak is tender and cooked exactly to preference, richly seasoned without being heavy, and served alongside crisp, golden fries that are everything you want in a classic bistro dish. It's simple, authentic, and prepared with the kind of care that elevates a traditional favorite into something memorable. Service at Café Faubourg is warm and attentive without being intrusive, contributing to the relaxed elegance of the experience. Whether you're dropping in for a casual dinner or celebrating a special occasion, the staff makes you feel welcome and unrushed. For anyone looking for an authentic French bistro experience in Montclair--excellent food, inviting ambiance, and truly charming service--Café Faubourg delivers every time.

I've reviewed Faubourg in the past and my experiences here have been exceptional. With the bar…read moreraised that high, I think it's good for the establishment to know about certain details that impact customer satisfaction. During this visit, the plating of some of the dishes was odd, as whomever did it felt the need to position the food right at the edge of the plates. That made it difficult to eat the dishes without some of the food spilling off the side. Had to push everything to center to avoid this. Again, this was very odd, as it happened on two entrees and one dessert dish and was the first time we've seen this at Faubourg. The lamb duo had a fantastic grilled flavor, but part of it (I believe it may have been shank meat) was loaded with so much salt that it overwhelmed the flavors and was a bit difficult to continue eating. The last comment is admittedly nitpicky, but worth mentioning, as they automatically added a 20% gratuity despite the menu stating that 20% is added for parties of 6 or more. We were a party of two and I was a bit annoyed that they did this. The check also had a place for "additional tip", which was a bit presumptuous after adding the 20%. Overall, the experience was positive with a few hiccups that prevent me from giving 5 stars. Still highly recommended.

This is very good and on the sweet side. Next came the Caesar Salad. What was different about it is there was a hint of basil and instead of croutons they did a dusting of fresh bread crumbs which was unique. Our meals were the rigatoni and a meatball. And WOW what a beautiful sized meatball. It was a bit too salty but my daughter liked it and that's all we care about. I had the linguini and clams which was good. The clams needed some better cleaning since I had a few with some sand in them. Stand out dish was the Fettuccine with shrimp. Had a nice pesto sauce mixed in with the Alfredo sauce and it really made the dish pop. Shrimp were good and cooked to perfection.

[Blowing on my nails.] The menu is a mix of American comfort food and gastropub classics, but with flair, and has a bit of everything to satisfy different palates. Our eyes were probably bigger than our stomachs as we ordered 2 apps, 2 entrees, and 2 cocktails, and it was an enormous amount of food. The portions are definitely what you'd call hearty, and everything was very tasty. Thursdays are all day happy hour so we picked the fried calamari appetizer at the HH price (still a full and generous plate and didn't seem like a downsized version) which were tender and well-battered, as well as the hot honey wings which were meaty and substantial. The short rib parpadelle with housemade pasta and a perfectly medium-rare, well seasoned hanger steak with truffle fries completed our satisfying and belly-stuffing meal. The cocktails are serious as well - the presence of a drink with egg white is my personal litmus test for a bar that knows what it's doing, so the Thyme to Bloom special had my name on it. I'm salivating just looking at photos of dishes I didn't order, and am already plotting my return!

The dashi course was savory, rich and tempered well with the pickled spring vegetables, which kept the dish from being too heavy. The rye bread was pillowy and warm. The salted butter the perfect complement. For my first course I chose the beef carpaccio. It may have been my favorite dish of the evening. The beef was sliced perfectly, the salted crackled pork eaten with the beef and aioli were a lovely mouthful of textures and rounded flavor. The next course was a beet salad. The golden beets were just tender while still firm. For my main, I selected the Parisian gnocchi with truffle sauce. If I could have eaten all of the sauce with a straw I would have. The gnocchi texture had a nice slight crisp but the potato filling was a tiny bit overdone. The dish was very rich but somehow a bit fluffy. For dessert we tried both the rice pudding and the sorbet with chocolate ganache. The sorbet was a bit tart which went perfectly with the dark chocolate ganache. The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and knowledge. Sam's mom came to wish my brother a happy birthday which was a nice touch. The green velvet channeled seating was comfy and lush looking.

I wish, I had ordered it. Taking one star off because the French chicken was extremely dry. Our regular server did not serve the entrées. I didn't see our regular server to flag down. All the other servers were running around. Otherwise, I would've asked one of them. Our server came over when it was dessert time. We decided to order Espresso Martini Shots. The shots were yummy!

We had a 6:30pm dinner reservation on a Tuesday evening. There's a parking lot in the rear with allocated spots. There's also street parking nearby. The restaurant was lively and busy. They have a full bar, high top tables, communal booth seating along one wall, and a section with tables for groups. It's not a huge place, so I recommend making reservations, especially for larger groups. The interior is styled after a casual European pub, but with rustic and elegant touches like fuchsia bougainvillea flowers, hanging industrial lights, antique chandeliers, distressed wood, etc. It's the ideal spot for date nights and celebrations. The tables are close together, so it does feel a bit crowded and the noise level can get high. The menu offers classic favorites from both European and American cuisines. The European dishes mainly consist of Italian, Greek, and Mediterranean flavors. I was surprised to see they have a full sushi menu! The drink menu is extensive - cocktails, wines, beer, hard liquor, you name it! Just a heads up - the prices listed on the menu are cash prices. Card pricing is available on their website. Mark was our server and I could tell that he enjoys his job! He had a fun personality and was attentive & welcoming from start to finish. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us recommendations on what to order. He made sure we were enjoying ourselves. The other staff members were quick with clearing our dishes and refilling waters. Not once did we feel rushed. 5 star service from Mark! We received complimentary bread and marinara dip to start, which we weren't too crazy about. The bread would've been better if it was served warm and had more seasoning on top. The marinara was watery and a bit bland. We ordered... *Porn Star Martini $16 (Weber Ranch vodka, passion fruit, lime, vanilla, sparkling rose) - My new favorite cocktail ;) It was the right balance of tropical, tart, and sweet. The sweetness was very subtle and the passion fruit flavor really shone through. The sparkling wine added a bubbly, crisp finish with every sip. I could definitely taste the alcohol... and I felt it running through my veins too LOL. *Pear Flatbread $18 (brie, caramelized pears, crumbled bacon, arugula, balsamic drizzle) - Highly recommend this appetizer! The bread is very thin and crispy, so it won't fill you up too much before your main course. Every bite was cheesy goodness combined with sweet & salty flavors from the pears and crunchy bacon bits. *Charred Hanger Steak $35 (with side of roasted mashed potatoes, wilted spinach, & chimichurri sauce) - Absolutely delicious! I requested my steak to be done medium and the chef delivered. It had a pink center with a rich, beefy flavor. It was tender, juicy, and paired well with the fresh, tangy, & herbal flavors of the chimichurri sauce. The mashed potatoes were soft and buttery. I only wish I got a larger portion of steak LOL. *French Chicken Breast $28 (topped with asparagus, manchego, almonds, pink peppercorns, capers, & potatoes) - The chicken was tender, but lacked moisture. It was a bit dry, but still enjoyable enough to eat. *Espresso Martini Shot $5 (Ketel One Vodka, espresso, Caffe Borghetti) - Coffee + alcohol.... a winner!!! The espresso and the vodka were nicely balanced. This was the perfect dessert drink - smooth, bold, nutty, & sweet. I would happily return. Good food, good drinks, good service, good ambiance... I'm already hyped for my second visit!
