Reviews for Restaurant Lorena's in Maplewood, NJ
Have been here for both lunch and dinner and both times have been excellent experiences. The staff is warm and welcoming and the... food is delicious. Particularly spectacular dishes are the Butternut Squash “Steak” (seasonal) and the Seared Hudson ValleyFoise Gras. The cocktails were also creative and expertly made. Highly recommend! Read more
Restaurant Lorena’s is a truly fantastic white table cloth dinner experience. The service and setting was delightful. It felt... very upscale but in a welcoming way. The food was creative and flavorful with a unique twist on the classics. I would highlyrecommend the restaurant if you want a great French inspired restaurant. Read more
When I visited a French restaurant the first thing I try is French toast. I have ordered french toast and it was so delicious... and huge portion. The restaurant serves French toast ???? during the weekends only at brunch time. I highly recommend thisrestaurant because it is so classic, and it is suitable for a ???? date. Read more
Place seems extremely popular and was packed. Expect a wait if you don't have a reservation on peak times. Both the food and... drinks were great and the service was quality. Definitely recommend going if you would like to have a nice meal. Read more
Oh. My. Goodness. Easily the best meal of my life, and the service was fantastic. Every single person we interacted with was... pleasant and eager to help. The ONLY very minor complaint was that the crème brûlée was a little over set. Otherwiseeverything was absolutely perfect, including the cocktails! Read more
