1776 Morristown

I had this place saved to try for the longest time because so many people kept hyping it up. Maybe I came on a bad night? I wasn’t impressed. The sides weren’t hot, just warm like they were sitting for a while before coming to the table. One side was the French onion mashed potatoes. Full of flavor but the layers were still cold. Just mashed potatoes with barely warm shredded cheese (still in the cold shredded state) and warm onion mix on top. The best plate was the kale salad. I feel everything would have been five star had they been hot and not slightly warmer than room temp.

We’re celebrating tonight. This place is perfect for celebration of any kind. The interior is beautiful and welcoming, the food is outstanding. The service is very attentive. It would be my wish to eat here weekly. Unfortunately my budget doesn’t accommodate this desire. If you are looking for a special meal for any reason 1776 will not disappoint.

Went here for a company event and so my experience is likely shadowed / clouded by what was decided as a part of the event planning. The herb bread was warm and delicious. The salad with minimal blue cheese dressing was ok, would have appreciated more dressing. Ordered a cauliflower steak and it was half a head of cauliflower with barely any dressing and almost non-edible, there were no sides to it, no vegetables, no vegetarian protein! Will certainly not order that ever again. The staff was gracious and made a vegetarian pasta which was very flavorful! Not sure why that was not provided as an option. The dessert trio was was delicious!

Okay, so let me start by saying the place itself is really nice, the vibe, the decor, and the service were honestly perfect. Everyone was super attentive, which I appreciate. But the food… oh no. The steak was terrible. Like, no flavor, weird texture just not it. And the guacamole? Definitely not fresh. Tasted cheap and off, same with chips which was disappointing. For a spot that looks this good, I was expecting way better food quality, not worth the price. Cute place to sit and have a drink maybe, but definitely not coming back for the food.

I finally made it into 1776 in Morristown after driving by so many times, and it turned out to be the perfect spot for a friend’s 40th birthday. One thing I always tell clients as a realtor is that a home is about more than four walls—it’s about the lifestyle and experiences nearby. And this brunch was exactly that kind of experience. Our waiter was phenomenal—attentive, accommodating, and full of great suggestions. He even crafted the most beautiful mimosa tree with fun twists just for our group. I ordered the lobster eggs benedict with home fries (highly recommend), and the rest of the table had a mix of brunch dishes—every single plate was a win. The sunny afternoon could’ve been tough, but our waiter made sure we had as much shade as possible and even surprised our birthday girl with
