We came to Bloom for Sunday brunch. It was highly recommended to us and didn't disappoint. We ordered the Bulgogi Kimchi Fried Rice (with a fried egg on top) and the Korean Street Toast (with egg and vegetable, and thick cut bacon). The fried rice was the highlight of my day. It was absolutely delicious, with the right amount of spice. The Korean Street Toast was good; it was basically a sandwich with a vegetable omelet and bacon inside the sandwich (served with a delicious side salad). The sandwich was filling. The omelet was light and fluffy. For dessert we had the cheese cake with berry compote. It was one of the better cheesecakes I've had in a while. The cheesecake was the perfect way to end our meal. I will definitely be back for dinner at Bloom! read more

I have been here three times and here are a few things to share- 1. The service is always excellent. Tonight they went above and beyond and customized my dessert so I could eat it and it was the server's idea to ask! 2. Their mussels are other- worldly delicious. Come here for the mussels alone! 3.I had the scallops which were perfectly cooked and the Sun choke purée and lentils complemented everything so well. 4. My boyfriend had a steak dish that he adored. 5. They have outdoor dining and indoor. 6. You must make a reservation- it's just easier and prevents issues. This is has become one of my favorite restaurants in a short period of time. The flavors and creativity are on point! read more

A restaurant that specializes in French, American, and Korean cuisine and a High Yelp rating and snagged a reservation on a Saturday night? Bloom was a must try for us. Bloom is a very pretty space and very contemporary and modern. The entire staff were very helpful, pleasant and friendly. What we ordered: Organic Kale Salad - Kale, Quinoa, Garlic Chip, Miso dressing- This was an excellent dish and the dressing was outstanding. Octopus - Grilled Spanish Octopus, Salsa Verde, Quinoa and Cauliflower Puree. This was a beautiful dish and all the flavors were crazy good. Crispy Monkfish with Saffron Risotto - This was very good and with a very nice crispy crust. Duck Confit - The flavors and taste was excellent. We would have liked the skin a little crispier but no complaints. Lamb Shank - The lamb fell off the bone and was tender and just delicious. For dessert we had waffle with homemade Italian gelato. We were very impressed with the taste, creativity, and presentation of the dishes we tried. All of the plating screamed fine dining. The two appetizers we had were 5 stars. The entrees a solid 4 stars. Bloom is BYOB. Expect to pay around $40-$50 per person. 4.5 stars for Bloom and great for special occasions. read more

Service and atmosphere are excellent. We had corn soup which is maybe in the top 3 best things I've eaten in my life, I would come here just for that. The Korean chicken wings soy garlic flavor were excellent and have lots of meat and flavor. I also tried the strawberry kiss mocktail which was lovely though I feel over priced considering there isn't any alcohol in it. We also ordered entrees (pork belly and kimchi lobster risotto) though they were not as tasty as the apps. I would 1000% recommend this restaurant to everyone and if I were to go back I'd stick with just ordering the appetizers. read more

Expertly prepared cuisine in a modern and striking space. We came as a group and sat at the chef's counter for our reserved time. We were greeted and had our wine opened and the appropriate glasses brought out. We quickly settled on some appetizers and placed our order. I opted for the steak tartar which was amazing and had a slight Asian flair to it with spicy kimchi added to the standard dressing that it would normally come with. I also managed to snag a bit of my friend's jamon which was perfect and the wife's octopus which was grilled to perfection. There was also some tempura shishitos that we all shared that were lightly sauced, sweet and tangy, without making them soggy. For my entrée I went with the duck confit that came with roasted potatoes and a blueberry reduction. The duck was cooked perfectly with a crisp skin and tender thigh that melted in your mouth. The sauce was just the right hint of sweet and the potatoes were slightly crisp but still tender. I normally don't do dessert but I decided I'd try their take on affagato which came out as a frozen preparation which I was not expecting but enjoyed very much. I did share and everyone felt this was the best dessert. The owner came over a few tines to check on us which was a nice touch as the service was very good prior to her inquiring. The prices, for the high quality and preparation, were very good and I'd certainly come back and try some additional dishes. read more

The food here was really good. The ambience is nice, kind of loud and tables are kind of close, but it didn't hinder the experience too much. The restaurant is BYOB, which is nice, there is a liquor store across the street. Service and food make this place a definite return for me. read more

Better to make a reservation, this place def lives up on all the good reviews! Started with the corn soup - seasonal and so good! BYOB but don't worry there's a liquor store across the street! I got a refreshing slushy drink tho and it did not disappoint. Mussels were so good esp the bread! I came especially for the bone marrow and the combo with Kim chi was uniquely delicious! The watermelon salad was both beautiful and tasty. Can't wait to go back and so glad it's so close to us! read more

Grabbed a quick dinner with a friend on a Thursday night. Had a reservation but it wasn't necessary since it wasn't that busy. We were given the option to sit outside in the clear, plastic domes, so we could not pass up the opportunity since the weather hasn't been too cold! Also, each dome has its own personal heater that you can adjust the setting to. We also saw parking in the back of the restaurant where the domes are located but street parking nearby also is available. We started off with the octopus to share. This was the first time I had octopus and I thought it had the consistency of mozzarella. The octopus was cooked to perfection with a crispier end tentacle. The creamy cauliflower puree paired perfectly with it. A sizeable appetizer for two! For the main course, I had the short rib which was known to be a favorite here. My friend had the bulgogi with kimchi fried rice. The short rib was a decent portion size, but I thought the sauce was a little too sweet. Nevertheless, it balanced out nicely with the garnish of the crispy potato, carrot slices, and carrot puree. Wish they added a little more crispy potatoes though. The bulgogi with kimchi fried rice was also delicious with a runny sunny side egg and a tolerable amount of spice from the kimchi. A big enough portion for two! Delicious food in an igloo atmosphere. Will return again to try other dishes! read more

What a find! This tiny contemporary designed space used to be a wonderful Mediterranean restaurant called Zaffron. It closed without much explanation or fanfare but in its place is a much needed modern American eatery with heavy Korean/French influence courtesy of two CIA graduate chefs! This stretch of Bloomfield Ave is lacking in more upscale dining options. It's been open for four months and we recently dined there on a Friday night. The service is charming and polished. They aim to please, are on point with recommendations and they all seem to be very enthusiastic about working at Bloom. We started with the Korean style chicken wings two ways: salt and pepper/Asian soy based sauce. The crunchy texture of the wings was truly spectacular. These are not your cluck U wings I promise... they're way better. We couldn't decide which flavor we liked more. Our friends ordered the very popular Bulgogi entree which is a Korean steak dish. Very yummy and quite a sizable portion. It can probably be shared by two people. I was disappointed to hear that the scallop entree was sold out. I opted for the bloom seasonal salad and the octopus appetizer as my main meal. Both were bursting with flavor and super yummy. They also obliged my request to serve a side of sautéed Swiss chard which was listed as an accompaniment for a different entree. The greens were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The real stars of the show were the pork belly entree and the Shishito peppers. The pork belly is a handsome duo of meat that oozed with taste... it was really about 20% fat and 80% pork meat.... done with perfect texture. The peppers are fried but the batter just kind of flakes off and leaves you with a wonderful pepper with tons of flavor. Like many local places, it is BYO and the server was great keeping up with filling the glasses throughout dinner. They offered dessert but we were stuffed to the gills. Interesting to note that the prices are so reasonable for such great food. We perused their weekend brunch menu and vowed to come back in the colder weather for a Sunday morning indulgence. Put this newbie on your list. Once the secret is out, it will be hard to get into. read more

Rounded up to 5 stars, but solid 4.5 star place. Service was good at dinner. Me and a friend were here to really take in the ambience, and like a more relaxed approach to being served. From the appetizers, to the main, to dessert. Escargot, they come out de-shelled, and in the herb sauce and cheese parmesan crusted topping. They were great with their toasted baguette slices. Shisito peppers, BUILDS IN SPICINESS! You'll need their sweet seltzer crafted drink with this, trust me. The ice cubes inside for you to chew on, once you're done with the sweet and fragrant drink, helps with the spice. I loved my entree. Scallops were large and nicely seared with a heavenly spread of soft mushroom risotto. I didn't know it, but kimchi puree works really well in combination as an addition. The crunchy oyster mushroom blanket was a nice touch to the softness of the rice and tenderness of the scallop. I would get this dish again. The kimchi fried rice is very good, a more whole and filling entree. A bit Americanized, but not too oily nor heavy on the sesame oil. The bulgogi was a good cut of beef and was a nice pairing with the fried rice. I ended up eating a good chunk of my friend's portion, hah. Definitely worth a try. Exterior of the store leads much to be desired, but once you step in, you are treated to an experience. read more

Came here for a private event and the staff was stellar and each plate that came out got better and better! The octopus - tender and perfect Soup / salad - delicious I got the salmon with a pea purée and kimchi slaw. Cooked perfect and all the sides were a match made in heaven!

Food was incredibly overpriced and underwhelming. I really try not to complain about food but this meal was so lackluster that I went to 7-11 to eat a meat pie to taste something. Slight exaggeration but not by much. Actually - this isn't an exaggeration. The $12 bread plate was the best thing I ate there. $12. For bread. And that was what I think tasted best. read more

It's official, Bloom is my new favorite restaurant in the area, hands down!! The family and I luckily stumbled by Bloom on a Sunday afternoon a week after they opened when all the regular spots we tried to were closed. It's right down the street from Grimaldi's. Inside Bloom, it has a nicely lite open dining area, bright colorful, floral prints on one wall and on the other a modern look with their name, just an overall really nice clean atmosphere. The staff themselves were very friendly and accommodating, allowing us to sit and order minutes prior to closing for lunch. As for the food, that's the real reason why Bloom shoots to the top of my list. A fusion of some of my favorite cuisines, while the chef chooses healthy/cleaner options, makes it so easy for me to give a 5* review. Here's what we ordered: - chicken wings (1/2 salt and pepper, 1/2 soy) - man, these wings were cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside. - bulgogi cheese sandwich - I've tried many of these over the years at different restaurants since being introduced to them at Craverie in JC when they first opened and until now, never found one that compares to the original. Bloom has Craverie's beaten as far as I'm concerned. Not as heavy feeling with better ingredients won me over. The shoestring fries and red cabbage slaw on the side were nice as well. - kid's cheeseburger/hamburger meal - great as well! I might end up eating my daughter's left overs later on, lol. Same shoestring fries on the side! - Bloom salad w/ crispy salmon - whoa, great salad! Nice and airy, fruit accompaniment with the dressing and salmon just work well together Nice combo chef! Definitely looking forward to coming back her for dinner!!! read more

So happy we walked into this new gem in Verona! So why ask 5 stars....sure here's why: - Decor is modern, clean, and so cozy - Presentation of food is picture ready - Staff is excellent.... our waitress was great and Chef Wu (owner) came out to greet us. Talked to us for a few about his experience in culinary...so friendly! - Menu options made me drool (lunch and dinner) - Food was excellent - Most importantly our kids LOVED IT... and I quote "Mom and Dad I want to come back here for my birthday... the burger and fries are awesome!" Lol So I ordered the 6 chicken wings (both flavors) they were nice enough to split so we can try both. The wings had this perfect crisp... I really liked the salt/pepper wings...it was sooooo good. The soy sauce reminded me of boom boom/bon chon chicken but Bloom was so much better! The crispy organic salmon with sesame dressing was so freakin tasty. I can't wait to go back! The kids burgers were fresh and so tasty.... it came with a spread of turmeric aioli.... it was different... my daughter wasn't a fan of it and the chef was so nice to make another plain burger for her and she ate it all. I also had a cappuccino but had no room for dessert. I will definitely come back for the dinner options. I can't wait! Thanks for a delicious meal Bloom!! read more

It's no secret at this point that I have a thing for fusion places, especially Asian fusion. Bloom had really piqued my interest for a while now and I finally got to try it last night! The concept of French Korean fusion is not one that you would see pretty often, so I was really interested to see how they would make this work. First of all, I've got to say that the ambiance of this restaurant is definitely really cute and comforting. I love the decor and they've definitely done a great job in terms of being able to still operate during the pandemic. There are a few tables available indoors and they also have three really cute igloos set up outside if you prefer that. Reservations are super easy to make on Yelp or by calling. The staff is super friendly and attentive, constantly checking in on us! We started out with the Escargot and Soy Garlic Crispy Chicken Wings. The wings are great, very typical Korean Fried Chicken texture and flavors with of course, a side of pickled radish. The Escargot is expertly prepared and not chewy at all, full of flavor and a great texture! For my main course, I had the Pork Belly which was very tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. I like the addition of the apples and couscous as a pairing for it. We also ordered a side of Korean Style Poutine to share. It's a pretty large dish so I would say that it could be a side for at least four people on its own. I think this poutine is more along the lines of loaded chili fries rather than poutine in that it's missing the gravy and cheese curds aspects that I personally find to be crucial to poutine. However, I definitely love the fact that it has kimchi in it! From the perspective of a French restaurant, I would say that the portion sizes here are definitely more generous than what you would find at a typical French restaurant. The only thing I'm missing is seeing the true fusion between the French and the Korean. I kind of see it being more that you can order either French or Korean food. Not that that's a bad thing but I was really hoping for more fusion concepts. I guess that the addition of kimchi in many of the dishes is what really incorporates the fusion aspect, if I had to guess. read more

Hip vibe, creative dishes, personal service. Lobster risotto is decadent and bursting with lobster. Kale salad is one of the best we have ever had. Short ribs, rich with deep flavor. It's obvious that there is some serious talent in the kitchen. read more

We visited Bloom right when it opened on a Saturday morning and we loved the quiet, clean, and serene ambience and interior. The wood accents that are custom-made for the space were pleasing to the eye. There is a municipal parking lot in the back of the restaurant that is free on weekends! The bathroom was also exceptionally clean and modern and I loved how they installed an air purifier in the space. The little touches that show care for the customers are so nice. Now, for the food... My husband and I got 4 dishes to share for brunch and this is the order in which we liked them: 1. Truffle Mac n Cheese - There was a reason I noticed so many people had ordered this dish, according to Yelp. This was SO delicious and decadent. They will ask if you would like to have bacon in the dish or not; you should get it. 2. Rock shrimp - The tempura was fresh, crisp, and clean tasting. The two sauces (a gochuchang-tasting red sauce and a sweet wasabi sauce) were both great complements to the shrimp. Would order again for sure. 3. Bulgogi Taco - This was savory and filling but not mind-blowing if you tend to eat bulgogi regularly. The filling was wrapped by a corn tortilla but I felt like a flour tortilla may have been a better pairing. 4. Waffle - I was really looking forward to this dish and it was tasty but disappointing. I was looking forward to a crispy waffle but it was very soggy. Next time, I'll probably order the pancakes instead. Overall, we loved our experience dining here and would visit again. You can also make reservations ahead of time. read more

Went here for the first time last night and I could not have had a better experience. The staff was very friendly from the moment I arrived and sat me at the bar. My server was happy to give recommendations so I ordered the Butternut Squash soup for my appetizer and Bulgogi with Kimchi Fried Rice for my entree. First, the butternut squash soup is one of the best I've ever had. It was wonderfully creamy and felt like a warm hug on what was a very cold day. The Bulgogi portion was huge (leftovers!) and it was also delicious. The kimchi fried rice usually comes spicy but my server assured me that it could be prepared to be less spicy so I took a chance and the fried rice had the perfect amount of spice. Mouth warming but still flavorful. For dessert, I ordered the crème brûlée and, not surprisingly, it was excellent. The top was cooked perfectly. Cannot say enough good things about the staff, food and service. This is how dining should be done. read more

All of the food we ordered was tasty: Mac n Cheese Beef with kimchi fried rice Pork with veggie fried rice Octopus Clam chowder The so-so: They didn't have the dish that I wanted They are pretty strict about their 90 minute seating limit (I'll be honest and admit we were late to our reservation). Final verdict: Would go back when it gets warmer. read more

My husband and I had brunch here to celebrate his birthday. The ambiance is so lovely. I started with the rock shrimp and my husband started with the beef carpaccio. I loved the wasabi dipping sauce that came with the shrimp, and they were perfectly cooked. My husband loved the flavors of the sauce that accompanied the beef. For brunch entrees, I had the croque monsieur (pictured) and my husband had the waffle with the addition of chicken. Portions were big enough to keep you full, but not uncomfortably full. I finished the meal with a peach fresh, which is a non-alcoholic beverage made with house made peach jam, seltzer, and lemon zest; it was phenomenal. Along with the quality of the food, the service was so nice. The waitstaff were attentive but also gave us space, and were incredibly friendly. I'm very much looking forward to going back for their dinner service. read more

In a town with great meals, this was amazing. Short rib was tender and delicate, purée was smooth and perfect, and umami all the way. What can I say? If you're looking for fine dining in Montclair or Cerona, this is where you should come. Be forewarned-portions are more French: small & rich. If you're looking for big heaping plates don't get the short rib. The bulgogi looked larger. read more

Bloom - Beef Short Rib - New American Near Me - Verona, New Jersey

3.5-4 stars I read that this restaurant is small but man, it is SMALL. There are roughly ten tables, depending on how they are arranged - and also seats at the bar. We had a reservation for a group of 8 on a Friday night and were told beforehand of a time limit - totally okay and understandable! The staff was very attentive and helpful. We ate/tasted: Bread Basket (served with miso butter and confit) - truthfully, for $8, I was hesitant to get this and thought it would just be a filler. But, wow! That miso butter and garlic and worth every penny. Bone Marrow (Caramelized Kimchi & Breadcrumbs w/ grilled baguettes) - DELICIOUS! My first time having bone marrow and, honestly, it was a bit "mind over matter" but I'm so glad I tried. The caramelized kimchi on top? Chef's kiss. Mussels (Creamy white wine butter sauce, fennel, onion, jalapeño, tomato) - I couldn't sample this due to an allergy but everybodyyyy at the table was raving about this. Salmon (Coconut kimchi broth, zucchini spirals) - When this first came out I was disappointed by how small it looked but POW, it is PACKED with flavor! I wanted to ask for some baguettes to sop up the amazing coconut kimchi broth but felt annoying. Heed my advice - ask for bread! The broth is stellar. Short Rib (Tender braised prime short rib, carrot puree, crispy potatoes & baby carrots) - Really tasty and perfect for a cold night. Perfectly seasoned. Truffle Mac & Cheese - Real talk, I am not a mac & cheese person. (And yes, I have been thoroughly shamed for this by those around me) This mac & cheese though? Divine. Absolutely delicious. I wasn't even the one who ordered it and ended up having about half. The mocktails were so tasty, but I believe $15 is quite steep for what you're getting. It is BYOB though! All of that was great! What makes me deduct a star is that a friend ordered 12 wings for $26 and requested for them all to be drums, due to his personal preference. They said they were unable to do that for him and gave him a mix of both. He only ate 6 wings and still paid $26. I completely understand that it was preference and not an allergy, but this restaurant leans fine dining. I believe that for the "vibe" that they are trying to sell, they should be able to accommodate on the experience as well. read more

I went to Bloom this past weekend and was highly impressed with the quality of food and service! We made a reservation for one of their outdoor igloos and I was surprised by how warm the igloo stayed (no jackets needed!). We were able to fit 4 people in our igloo and I think at max they could fit about 5 people. We ordered the bulgogi, pork belly, and monster chicken sandwich. Everything was fantastic and for an upscale restaurant, I thought the portions were very fair. My favorite was probably the bulgogi as the meat was cooked perfectly and the rice had so much flavor (however it was spicy so I don't recommend this for those who aren't a fan of spice). The chicken sandwich was truly a "monster" just as it is named and came with a huge side of fries, enough to split with the table. The restaurant is also BYOB and will open any bottle of wine you bring! Overall I would definitely recommend Bloom for a nice dinner. The prices of the meals were very fair for the quality of the food, and our server was extremely attentive! read more

Oh bloom. I was so so excited to try this place out when it opened but have to admit I was let down. The restaurant is very nice! Trendy and fresh and open and clean. Limited tables and also bar seating available. I believe they have an outdoor area in the back but didn't see it. The host and server were friendly. I would recommend a reservation as we tried coming before without one and couldn't get seated. The menu is extensive but the food was just not it. We had the garlic bread, beet salad, shrimp, lobster risotto, fried rice, and pork belly. Honestly the beet salad was the best thing we had. The food was very oily and was missing something that I just can't put my finger on. Some type of seasoning or something. The food wasn't bad, but not something I would come back for. If you're from the area and haven't been, I would check it out. But Unfortunately it was a one and done for me. read more

Excellent restaurant at a reasonable price. I'd call it: French-Korean fusion. Strongly recommend the mushroom soup, chicken wings, and (especially) the pork belly. The bone marrow is good, but forgettable. I have had better bone marrow so I wouldn't get it again and I probably wouldn't recommend it. If you're lucky, by the end of the meal chef Woo will come great you. The cheesecake they had for dessert was pretty standard cheesecake, not amazing but not bad either. We were going to try the beet appetizer but the chef said the beets were not up to par and thus wasn't serving them. The fact that he would not serve a dish with a veggie that isn't up to par is very telling to the level of care and attentiveness. The pork belly was the star of the show, perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with a rich layer of juicy fat. Execution: perfect. read more

A very special thank you to Chef Woo and his team @Bloom for helping my family celebrate my father's birthday. Due to certain circumstances, we haven't been able to see each other for over two months, so being reunited at such a cozy, fun space was exactly what we hoped for. We loved the outdoor seating, sitting in the outdoor bubble. The service was amazing. The staff is so friendly and cheerful. The food is of highest quality. Everything on their menu is unique, using very accessible and approachable ingredients, in a creative way. The presentation is on point and you can just tell how much love and care is put into the food and atmosphere. Starters included: *grilled octopus with salsa verde, black inked quinoa, and cauliflower puree *roasted king oyster mushrooms with leek, garlic, and parmesan cheese with bread crumbs Entrees: *Sauteed scallops over wild mushrooms, mushroom risotto, and kimchee puree *Bouillabaisse with clams, mussels, shrimp, and monk fish with a side of udon *Braised short ribs over a carrot puree and crispy potatoes Side: *Kimchi fried rice These crispy chicken wings were amazing Tha also, a must try our chicken wings! you might as well also just come back and get the rest of the menu. I can't wait to try more dishes next time! read more
