In the middle of hurricane Sandy (Oct 2012) I found myself staying at the hotel which houses Hibiscus and thus by chance ate there. I was surprised at the vegetarian entrees on the menu and very pleased with the quality of the food. The only negative is that they do not serve beer, and wine only by the bottle (maybe... More

We had brunch on Sunday and while the food was ok, it just didn't seem right. I suppose walking across the hall to get your food was strange as well as the jazz piano player knocking out tunes way too loudly. All in all it's weird. The staff is friendly, the food choices varied, from eggs to turkey. Everything tastes... More

I don’t understand how this place managed to become #2 in Morristown on TA. Perhaps they used to be better, but with so many places around, there’re definitely better choices available. We came in at 1:30pm for a Sunday brunch that started at 12 noon. The food already looked like it’s been sitting there for quite some time. It just... More

My husband and I have eaten at Hibiscus several times now. The food is absolutely delicious each and every time and the service is top notch. I cannot say enough about how good it is, plus there's always live music! We recently took a group of friends (11 in total) and everyone's meal was delicious. Some of our personal favorites... More

My wife and I were dining with friends for Morristown Restaurant Week and Hibiscus was my selection. We entered to a steel drum and keyboard playing Caribbean music. They offered a prix fixe menu for $30 each. First was a Caesar Salad or a Hibiscus Salad. I was trained by an expert to select the dish with the name of... More

We were in Morristown for business. Found this place highly recommended on both on Yelp and Tripadvisor. The restaurant is located on the basement level of Best Western in Morristown, which was unexpected to us. The place was nice and cosy. The staffs were very attentive. We had Hibiscus appetizer, curried goat and jerk chicken. Everything was very flavorful. The... More

Very small place and they seem uncoordinated being the basement of a hotel. Took a while to get the food, but had a great pianist there to pass the time. Food was excellent (mozzarella/tomato salad to start and rasta pasta with shrimp which reminded me of a spicier pasta vodka).

We have gone to Hibiscus several times, and have always been delighted to eat there! The restaurant offers a wide range of food selections -- whether you're in the mood for spicy Jamaican or a more traditional Italian, you will never be disappointed. They specialize in delicious fish and other seafood dishes. Make sure to try their tasty Jamaican bread... More
