Now celebrating its 55th year, Nero's Grille continues to be one of north-Jersey's most popular dining scenes. We combine the highest quality, freshest ingredients with a comfortable, familiar atmosphere and service that makes you feel like one of the family. Nero's has become the area's place to see and be seen. Three separate dining rooms, and outdoor patio dining as climate permits, provide a warm, unpretentious intimacy in which to enjoy our high-quality, moderately-priced American and Italian fare, while the large bar area buzzes with the energy of friends gathering over a favorite martini or a glass of wine from Nero's award-winning list. Private rooms are also available, and our banquet staff is noted for making special events 'extra special.' After four decades, the entire Nero's family continues to take enormous pride in offering our guests, new and old, a gracious welcome, a terrific meal, and our sincere appreciation.

Great food. Huge portions. Great prices. Great menu. Great service. The only negative is that the dining room is very loud. But everything else overrides that. Enjoy!

We’ve lived in the area for awhile and driven by Nero’s 200x, but never stopped in. Our mistake. Great atmosphere, server Crystal and hostess Jeanine’s warmth and kindness made all the difference. Nero’s is our new go to spot in the area!

My wife thought her meal was too spicy but they immediately took it back and fixed it. My ahi tuna was great!
