Restaurant ReviewAlices Restaurant has recently undergone an upgrade in the quality of food served at the lakeside restaurant with owners Alice and Bela Szigethy hiring famed Chef David Drake as a consultant to introduce some vitality into a formerly tired menu. The menu has now evolved into a mix of creative, healthy dishes and comfort food with very reasonable prices. Alice's Restaurant has attractive lakefront views of Lake Hopatcong with a large deck for outside dining in the warmer months. The interior has a rustic decor with vaulted ceilings, restored barn wood walls, comfortable booths, and a mahogany bar that runs the length of the deck for a clear view of the lake. The downstairs "Big Fish Lounge" offers a more upscale complement to the upstairs dining area with subdued lighting, walls done up in upholstered leather, weathered mirrors, leather seating and a marble bar with a view of the water. When in season they use local produce picked fresh from the Szigethys’ Halsey Island farm. They are open for brunch and dinner with a menu that has a variety of well prepared and creative, casual, gourmet, and vegetarian dishes to please just about any palate. When available, for dinner starters, try the: Fresh Yellow Fin Tuna Tartar: or the Spinach and Bacon Salad. When available, for dinner entrees, try the: Grilled Swordfish; or Alice's Homemade meatloaf; or the Grilled Skirt Steak. Soups, sandwiches, and burgers also available. Save room for dessert. Try the sumptuous Apple Tart garnished with a dollop of vanilla ice cream. Alices restaurant is open all year, and reservations are recommended during the peak summer months.
Unlike other sources that review restaurants on the basis of a single visit by a restaurant critic, or on the basis of restaurant diners, our restaurant ratings and reviews take into account a wider audience and are the result of a compilation of many sources, including our staff visits and diners who have eaten there.
