Reviews of Bareli's (Restaurant)

Rosemarie Johnston

Brittany Linton

Food was fantastic

Eric Browne

Best Italian restaurant I have ever eaten at. A memorable dinner.

Robert Giannini

tiffany reilly

Loved this place

Creig Fitzgerald

I loved it, they made feel at home while having great food and service. I had their famous lobster for the main and calamari for the app along with their multiple different types of breads and olives. The drinks were made correctly and the staff was just some of the most on point staff I've ever seen. Anyone who walked by would ask if I needed anything and if I did they wouldn't hesitate to get it to me themselves. I'd definitely go back if I'm in the area again.

Sandee Gabriel

The food and service were absolutely on point. Will definately revisit.

Good Italian Restaurant!!

Just meh. Pretty dark. Cold. Service was really inattentive. Tried to order a second glass of wine and it was an ordeal. Was given the wrong wine and waiter insisted it was correct . . . until I asked to see the bottle. An odd place.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Bareli's. From the valet parking attendant upon arrival, to your last taste of coffee and dessert, the experience is wonderful!

Betsey Rondon

Ambiance, food, service EXCELLENT!

Robert Tabick

Great food. Service was slow.

Manish Vanjara

I tried the house draught beer and the dish of the day which was some fish dish. Food and beer was good. Bread is served while you wait for food. Just go easy on the bread as the serving portion to me looked generous. Then again I am used to Canadian serving size. So in hindsight the servings is about what you would expect at most dining places in the NY area. Parking is by valet. I was with colleague so I am not sure whether you have to pay for parking. It looked busy though for sure. Service promptness was OK given it was a busy time. Staff were friendly. All in all it is a decent place for some good food. Would recommend reservation prior to visit as they get full house.

Nicholas Thompson

Food was great. Service was as well.

ROYCE New York

New York luxury restaurant quality in a refined executive setting with wonderful live big band music, outstanding wine list and incredibly fresh fish and well aged chops. Our go to spot for client meetings and holiday functions

Great food, atmosphere and service.

Gail Guarini

Nhuong

Great service and staff. Food was okay. This place is a little too fancy for me.

Alan Pereira

Could not ask for more. Met all of our expectations and then some. From great food to great atmosphere and even great staff. The live music just put it over the top. The only thing to keep in mind is the the food arrives under salted, salt is available on the table and you should salt to your preference. Glad to have come back and will be returning again.

Leroy Hale

This spot is worth visiting. They serve big portions for convenient rates. Consistently well kept and with great atmosphere. Will visit here again.

Superb italian fare, inventive pasta dishes and great seafood.

Excellent meal and service!! This place was a great surprise..we had the crab ravioli as an app was outstanding as was the lamb meatballs app. The thing to try is their pork chop.

We went for a meal to celebrate a birthday, and as usual had a fantastic meal. Great service, great food and great value for money. We recommend Longfellows to people.

Joey Nieves

Had Thanksgiving dinner. Private room. Good food.Service was exceptional.Wait staff was attentive.Worth it to try the pork chop.Bring your appetite when you do order this hunk of meat.

Flor Francois

Food is really delicious and fresh. The service is really friendly .

Sean Guzman

Nice place and great staff. Everyone was very nice and ready to please. We were there for Valentine's Day and enjoyed ourselves a lot. Stayed far beyond dessert at our table and there was no pressure at all for us to hurry up and move from our table. In fact Leo ( not sure if he is the owner or just a manager) bought us a round just because while we sat there talking. Now to the food. The food was good. My wife's Chilean Sea Bass and broccoli Rabe were great. I had the filet mignon which was good but not great. But who goes to an Italian restaurant for steak. Don't get me wrong it was not bad in any way but the sauce missed the mark for me. Dessert was good and we'll definitely be back to try the pasta and some more fish. Customer service was top notch from start to finish and I would definitely recommend it.

ki ka

Not too big upscale Italian restaurant that offers live music and has a small cozy bar area.

Mayur Banwasi

It's a great place for Italian food. The only upscale restaurant in Secaucus. Service was good. Food was excellent.

Sonia Andriani

We had a nice, romantic dinner at Bareli's. We sat by the fireplace and enjoyed good service and food with a little privacy to boot. It's wonderful when you don't have to shout over everyone. Will definitely be back.

Erica Diaz

We were in town for a dance competition, so my 8 yr old daughter and I went here for dinner......here’s the things, it’s not entirely kid friendly, not sure they have a “kids” menu. Regardless, they do take special requests and will make basically anything. Atmosphere was dark, more intimate. Food was exceptional. Service was great. Drinks were amazing, I had a red sangria and it is made in house and was delicious!! Overall, it was great. Just my honest review about little people and this place. However, the staff was very polite and didn’t seem to mind that she was there.

Mayur Banwasi

It's a great place for Italian food. The only upscale restaurant in Secaucus. Service was good. Food was excellent.

Miley Madeleine

Great atmosphere and food, the employees give off a great vibe

The Credit Dude

The best food!! Highly recommend them.

Harmon Cove Resident

Good food. Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Lovely piano bar with well-mixed drinks. Quite expensive but worth it, especially for those occasions when you have something to celebrate.

Alberto Paula

Maria is awesome. The food is delicious.

Omar Centeno

Awesome service. Great attention to detail.

Luciane

The service was nice but the place does not deserve all the good reviews. Not better than Olive Garden. The food has too much oil in everything (I am a Chef). The special fish for $36 came with a couple of uncooked potatoes. We ordered a …

Ariana Skroski

Great place. Limited menu but they will make most anything requested.

Michael Bauer

Good good and decent atmosphere. I could have done without the karaoke type entertainment. They guy had a good voice, but the place it too small to have live entertainment... It was more of a distraction that anything.

Akheya Kaur

Amazing food and the hospitality was even better. The pictures are not doing justice even though they look amazing, the food was way more better than pics.

Inez Gomez

From ambiance, to food, to drinks and even live entertainment..this is a great location to have a nice, relaxing dinner. Such peace

Theodore Lorusso

Amazing food and service was impeccable!

Julio Sanchez

One of the best Italian restaurants I've been to, and the service was very good.

Maddie King

I truly didn't mind this dining establishment, the food is impressive, and the restrooms were ok. It was a little cold inside, so yeah, it was not totally cool. The service is great. I will absolutely take into consideration going back again if I ever land the possibility. Me as well as my pal bought the sandwiches as well as we were not dissatisfied. My one tip is to maintain the cool exterior. Till next time!

Sonia Andriani

We had a nice, romantic dinner at Bareli's. We sat by the fireplace and enjoyed good service and food with a little privacy to boot. It's wonderful when you don't have to shout over everyone. Will definitely be back.

Jose Garcia

Food and drinks were amazing including the service

Darcy Miller

Wonderful atmosphere and food

Alexis Gaffney

My husband and I went for the first time last Saturday. The place is very nice inside. The food was pretty good, a little pricey in comparision. The valet stated he can drive stick shift and stalled out my husbands corvette, luckily, he went out there and parked it himself. We had about 3 or 4 different waiters/waitresses helping us, which was a little odd. We didn’t like that the table was super long, we could barely hear each other let alone hold each other’s hands. It was good to try though.

Abilash Reddy

One of the best Italian restaurants in Secaucus, wonderful ambience and great food.

Varsha Shah

5 star service, 5 star hospitality, 5 star friendly people and last but not the least 5 star food... A place not to miss out. They truly earn these 5 stars..!!!

Aria Catherine

Great food reasonable prices. Only thing I don't like about this restaurant is the 3.00 delivery fee. I have no problem if this fee goes to the delivery guy, but I was told that the restaurant keeps this delivery charge. Other than that small detail, like I said, great food, with big portions, and reasonable prices. Also very friendly waitresses and staff.

cb brown

Delicious Italian food, will be going back soon.

Chad Lamb

The lasagna was amazing!

Michael Singh

I had their famous lobster for the main and calamari for the app along with their multiple different types of breads and olives. The drinks were made correctly and the staff was just some of the most on point staff I've ever seen. Anyone who walked by would ask if I needed anything and if I did they wouldn't hesitate to get it to me themselves. I'd definitely go back if I'm in the area again.

Always a great meal, eggplant parm and pork chop with pepper vinegar sauce are excellent

Excellent menu. Food was incredible. If you are not in the mood for pasta highly recommend the pork chop.

Best pork chop anywhere, great bartender Lauren, specials; good but pricey.

Josh Kim

Good service, good live music, black spaghetti lobster was on point

Ronald Ciccone

Delicious Gnocchi homemade Great food I recommend it .

Food was great, maybe because of being around lunch time it was a long wait for main course with a party of 5.

Michael Careri

Get the grilled pork chop it was delicious!

Bareli's is a great place to go for a nice dinner. Food and service is fantastic. The staff here does whatever they can to make you feel comfortable. The restaurant is very romantic and a perfect place to go for a date. Good drinks at the bar and live music was very fun.
