One of the beautiful things about New Jersey is that we have so many well-preserved historic buildings. Some operate as museums, while others are privately owned, and others still have been repurposed into storefronts and restaurants while maintaining much of their original charm. There are dozens, perhaps hundreds of worthwhile places to visit in the Garden State, but today we’re focusing on one.
The Brick House in Wyckoff is a restaurant and event venue that dates back to 1851.
It’s one of Bergen County’s only examples of a Federal Greek Revival farmhouse, and it’s spectacularly beautiful. It radiates historic elegance.

The steak is sublime, and a customer favorite. Choose between filet mignon, t-bone, grilled skirt steak, and New York strip.

They’ve also got seafood, soups, salads, burgers (for lunch), lamb, and roasted chicken. Of course, there’s plenty more. Popular dishes include stuffed mushrooms, beef scallopini, and veal lolli-pop rib chop.
