Jolie — Restaurant in Harding Township

I cannot agree more with the previous reviewer (Thomas Fallon).

Wow. It is shocking how oblivious the staff here is. Kind and warm, but ‘lights on, nobody home’ type of thing. I really was expecting a much better experience, but left deflated with my kids. Lackluster service in what could be a very successful farm-to-table business.

Took my family here as we were passing through from Morristown and this was the only place we could quickly find to eat in the center of New Vernon. I got 2 Stamina Boosters and since they were going to make it fresh for me, I asked if they could add ginger and lemon. “Absolutely!” they said. Juice comes and there’s no taste of ginger or lemon anywhere. The “youth” smoothies my children got were fine, but did not warrant an $11 price tag whatsoever. I guess that’s what you can get away with in the middle of nowhere.

The wait for our food was atrociously long. Messed up on one of my kid’s dishes. I guess the cluelessness extends to the kitchen, unfortunately. (Thankfully my child’s doctor’s appointment was BEFORE we went to lunch.)

The one star I’m leaving is for how gorgeous the dining room and bathrooms are. Absolutely stunning.

Jolie, you could’ve been fantastic, but you aren’t. I wanted to love it, but I can’t. I won’t be back, nor...

The hot and dynamic food,beverages and desserts for the embyonic and veteran vegetarian.The warm kale salad is flavorful, you will need two servings of salad dressing.My favorite dish is the plant based vegetarian burger with carmelized onions and a tossed artisan lettuce and cherry tomato salad plate.The dishes are clean and my favorite dessert is the walnut muffins that are rich and satisfying.There are skin care products,organic teas,candles and wellness books.Yoga is taught but you should check the class schedule.The restroom was spartan clean with luxurious products to freshen your hands. The staff is pleasant, well informed and efficient.One staff person has a podcast on mindfulness and wellness.I love the energy and ambiance of the place.Yes...

DO NOT get anything but coffee unless you have an hour to spend there. It took them 35 minutes to make a tuna sandwich that was supposed to be pre-made. Their menu looks great, execution is deplorable. And I don’t say that lightly, it’s well known. I’ve worked in restaurants, I’m not being a jerk, been there many times. Service is slower than slow. If you have time to kill, sure try your luck but even then, no guarantee it’s going to come out good. Stick to coffee and even then allow for 20 minutes. No joke, it’s unreal. I say get espresso and nothing else. Unless you have time to kill. Or get there breads or muffins that are right in the counter. It’s a shame, the place could be great. Do better...
