Simply the best! The best bartenders, service, vibes, food, music, atmosphere! This place has it all! Cannon really knows what he is doing! This is me and my husbands go to spot! Have you tried their oysters or their seafood tower?! It's out of this world!!! I myself love a little happy hour, which is the best time to go because you can endulge on endless oysters for half off 😋 If you enjoy fine dining, make a reservation weeks in advance and sit upstairs, if you like casual/trendy dining, eat at the oyster bar, if you love an amazing cocktail, check out the vail bar and if you love a laid back vibe, hit up the Rathskeller where they often have live bands performing! I enjoy a little bit of all 4, depending on the week! 😁
Celebrated my wife's birthday by going to the dining area on the 2nd floor. We had the chef's 6 course menu! The meals we excellent! Not knowing what the next course would be also made it very exciting! The meals exploded in flavor and tho small portions we were content after finishing our desert! I've known the Vail mansion my whole life time and the renovations by Jockey Hollow Bar & Kitchen have made dining here a world class experience!
Compliments to the owner for the attention to detail of this fine establishment!
The service here is always phenomenal. We've eaten in the dining room several times and they go above and beyond every time. Complimentary appetizers, multiple waiting staff, and complete knowledge of their menu makes this one of our favorite spots!

We tried the chef’s tasting menu last night at daPesca. Fresh and delicious seafood, every single plate was amazing!
Beautiful Saturday evening on the patio! Such a relaxing atmosphere. Food was prepared and presented perfectly, seasonings, spices, awesome! Highly recommend Wild Mushroom Crostino, Spring Ramp Spaghetti, House-Made Lasagna, CC Burger - House-Made Hummus... I could go on and on! (Dessert just right). Service was impeccable and I can't wait to go back!!
Absolutely wonderful experience last night. This is our second time going and could not have been happier. The food was outstanding and the service was just as good. Christopher Cannon actually stopped by our table to speak with us and even gave us a treat. We adore your restaurant and consider it our special place now. Thank you to everyone and we look forward to visiting again!
We love ❤️ everything about this place: the food, the service and the atmosphere ! Manuel the events coordinator is amazing, highly recommend.
Absolutely beautiful! We had dinner at the Oyster Bar and the food was excellent. I suggest the Butternut Squash ravioli! Overall we had a great time and I am looking forward to having dinner there again.
Food and it’s ingredients are tops, with a knowledgeable and impeccable service...without a doubt NJs top restaurant experience...

Great food in a lovely upscale environment. We were seated in a back bar space that had the vibe of a private club. Recommended! We will return.
We had a delicious meal in the Vale Room, I had monk fish wrapped in bacon, my husband and daughter had steak cooked to perfection. Our servers Bobby and Marco were excellent, charming, so knowledgeable and efficient! The cocktails are so good, with a nice selection of wines and spirits. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Went for the happy hour oysters and dinner and it was fantastic! I feel like oysters can be a hit or miss in some places but these were fresh and tasty. Our server Marco was really helpful in giving us recommendations and provided excellent service.
I remember when they first opened up, and they maintained that spirit of good food and drink since. The family style pastas and fish are great. Though sometimes hit and miss on the dishes individually, it's always been fun to pop into the library area for a drink or get a business meal in here. Parking in the basement lot or around the drive. Pasta is still great, had the lamb garganelli, but the appetizers like the hummus and the octopus were not inspiring. Very nice staff though.wbile steak was tough the salt and vinegar fries underneath were an undeniable hit.
Perfect for any occasion. Friendly staff and amazing food. Not only is this place a landmark with great views, the careful preparation of food and atmosphere will make this place your favorite restaurant.
Probably one of the nicer restaurants in the region, with elegant cocktails and fine wine, an array of suave apps including delicious vegetable fare, and premium entrees. The biscuits and honey are a phenom, and my scallops were on point.
The modern design decor and contemporary luxury vibe add a special and cinematic atmosphere. The service is attentive and polite.
Most of the other diners fit the scene, with the exception of the loud, drunk, and obnoxious table of four that was seated directly next to us (we had reservations for two on a date night), who came close to ruining an evening that we paid a pretty penny to experience. For those types, the hostesses should have read the room and isolated them. We expect more discretion next time.
I ate here in January 2023 for some dessert, and I loved it!!! We were fortunate enough to get a seat at the bar, even on a busy Friday night without a reservation. It was definitely busy, but the interior is beautiful!! The desserts were absolutely delicious and a perfect treat; I will definitely be back here for a full meal!!!
Katia, our waitress, was amazing! We followed her suggestions and were so happy that we did. Amazing food and great service. The octopus a la plancha was a highlight, as was the pork chop.
Celebrated our wedding anniversary here and the place didn’t disappoint. Service from check in was great, friendly staff and prompt service. Food was spectacular! It’s pricey but the whole place and ambience will make you feel special. I just don’t like that the tables are really close to each other that the next table’s conversations are very audible. But I guess you have to really reserve early to get the best quiet-ish spot. Overall, a great place to celebrate a special occasion or have an exquisite fine dining experience. We’ll go back! 💕
Whatever the event - brunch, casual dinner with friends, quick drink at the bar, celebrating a special event, private party - Jockey Hollow is the perfect venue. Delicious food, yes. Ambiance, yes times 4 - the restaurant boasts four separate areas each with their own character and vibe. Service - attentive, knowledgeable, professional. You won't be disappointed.
