We held our wedding at Sear, and they truly exceeded all our expectations. With 108 guests in the main room, everyone was comfortably seated, the drinks were strong, and the food was outstanding. All 108 guests left raving about the meal and can’t wait to return for dinner! The service was flawless—a perfect 10/10. The staff made each guest feel like they were the only ones in the restaurant, adding to the intimate atmosphere. They worked tirelessly with us to create the most incredible wedding day we could have imagined. I highly recommend this restaurant for casual dinners, work events, and ESPECIALLY WEDDINGS!

I had my engagement party here with my Fiancée and over 20 guests and we had a great time booking our party room with both owners Brigen and Dino. The wait staff were very attentive with our large group and the food was outstanding . Everything came out cooked to perfection and everything was nice and hot. Our package included the wine and beer package and the waitstaff always checked to make sure everyone had their drinks.

Nice vibe, friendly staff. The thing I found odd was that all of our entrees (&sides) were served in clunky white oval serving platters. Definitely expected at least some thought to go into plating. The cowboy stakes were barely contained on the 'plate'. Other than that, our steaks were all cooked perfectly, as was the lobster tail.

The food was exceptional, the service was great, and the atmosphere was vibing. It's definitely my new go-to place.

My original 5 star review was from 6 years ago. This review is new. We visit regularly and we had an amazing dinner tonight. Best salad was amazing! Oysters were delicious. Then we had lobster tails. Truly some of the best lobster I have ever had. Sweet, cooked to perfection. Can’t wait to have it again. Kettle One Martini and a Hendrix Martini!

I love going back to Sear house in Little Falls. The bar service is excellent and we enjoy visiting Amanda. She’s the best bartender and a the most pleasant person!! All my friends keep coming back with me because they love her cocktails and her vibe & always excellent service for her customers. If you haven’t tried, definitely go it’s worth it, never disappointed when we go there and make sure to say hi to Amanda!! She makes that place thrive!

I recently hosted my husband’s surprise 40th birthday party at Sear House Grill, and everything was absolutely perfect! The food was incredible – every dish was beautifully prepared and delicious. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive and ensuring everything ran smoothly. The room was just the right size for our group, creating a cozy yet elegant atmosphere. Dino and Manny were amazing to work with throughout the planning process all the way to the event day making it so easy and stress-free. We had a blast and really enjoyed ourselves. I highly recommend Sear House Grill for anyone looking to host a special event – they truly exceeded all expectations!

My husband and I go to Sear all the time. We eat at the bar for the happy hour and bar menu. Their lamb chops and French onion soup are amazing. The best part outside of the food is the bartender Amanda. She always has a smile on her face, and makes amazing cocktails. The bar is usually crowded but she is great at holding down the fort, mostly solo.
