For those of you that up for something a little wild... I heard that the past few Fridays at Dragonfly in Carlstadt have been filled with craziness. Tonight the music will be hosted by DJ Richie Rydell. Dragonfly is a big indoor/outdoor bar and lounge. To give you an idea of what the scene is like - they recently had the Naked Cowboy from Time Square host Bikini Bull Riding night complete with loud music and a mechanical bull. They used to have the bull every Wednesday night... the rumor is, it's making a comeback. A word to the wise: This is a younger crowd. Old folks - you've been warned.
Tonight is also a good night for Sanzari's New Bridge Inn in New Milford. (Hint, hint: this has been a secret Bergen County hot spot for the North Jersey elite this past summer and my guess is that they are just getting started.) This place is really for young and old, but leaning to the more sophisticated side. According to my sources, the crowd has been getting better, better every weekend. The reason: Great, reasonably priced Italian food and fantastic live music by Josh and Liza from A-List Entertainment Co. They are über-talented vocalists that light up the place with the perfect music choices that span from Sinatra's era to today's hits. According to the hostess at Sanzari's, Josh and Liza play almost every Friday and Saturday. Trust me: If you haven't heard these guys yet, you do not know what your missing. This is not your run-of-the-mill live restaurant entertainment. This is infinitely more special. PS - Call ahead and ask to be seated on the bar side of the restaurant.
I've seen Liza and Josh at Sanzari's many times and they just seem to get better and better. They always mix up the music and they really talented. Josh is like New Jersey's version of Danny Gans. He sounds like Sinatra, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash... It's pretty awesome. Liza should be on American Idol because she would blow away every contest that they've had on that show in the past five years. She's no joke.
ReplyDeleteSanzari's is definitely a good spot to go in Bergen County for dinner and entertainment.
This place is cool. I was there for a party last weekend. Has huge TVs around the bar with the college games on them. Food was very good; definitely above average. The guy Josh singing downstairs was awesome. He sang a ton of different music. He was alone the night I was there. I would definitely go back if lived closer.
ReplyDeleteI saw Josh play at Jersey Boys in New Milford. He's awesome! My wife got us reservations here for New Years Eve 2011! We're looking forward to it! Our friends went last year and said that it was awesome. There aren't very many places to go to celebrate New Years Eve in Bergen County without being in a dumpy bar. Sanzari's has really turned into a Bregen County hot spot in the last two years. Happy New Year!
