Off the main strip of Denville, Nj lies a contemporary, decorative, and colorful little hideout. but beyond the decor, and acoustic jams reveals mouth watering streaks and out of this world salads. This place leaves an impression from the moment you walk in, to the moment you leave. The ambiance is contemorary and intimate. It is perfect for romantic dining and social gatherings. The service is spectacular. I love this place! Definately worth every penny.

We drive by 17 Main several times a week but for some reason, we never stopped to taste their fare. Maybe it's because several previous ventures located in the same space have failed quickly? Anyway,we stopped last night - having had dinner at Attillio's on Tuesday and take out from Sergio's Thursday - looking for a new experience. I am glad we did.The room is bigger than it seems from the outside with interesting art and warm colors on the walls. There are real cloth napkins and comfy seating. In warmer weather, you can dine alfresco but it was a few degrees south of comfortable for an early April visit so we opted for the inside this time.The menu has American leanings with Italian touches (a good combo in my opinion). We skipped the appetizers this time - saving our appetite for the main dish. We both ordered chicken but I was tempted by the pork loin, 16 oz strip steak and lamb. My wife had pistachio crusted chicken over mashed and I had chicken Mark Antonio - chicken in a creamy tomato sauce. Both were quite good and the presentation was "vertical" a' la Gotham Bar and Grill. One serious issue was the amazingly slow service. It took nearly 30 minutes between order and delivery - too long for a couple of hungry folks. No explanation was given but the waitress came mid-way in the delay with a free salad. It was wonderful and showed that the people running the place know how to treat a guest. So 5 stars on the food but down to 4 for the slow service. It may have been an oddity - we'll return and let you know if things get better. 17 Main - a new and interesting choice in Denville.
