Espo’s-Your Table, Our Tradition. Bringing Family and Friends Together Since 1974
-
Espo’s Restaurant and Bar has been a staple of Somerset County since 1974. Nestled in between houses on a residential street, is a neighborhood restaurant and bar that has been serving its classic Italian-American dishes for generations. What makes Espo’s so special? Consistency. With our head Chef and Bar Manager loyal to the Espo’s brand for over 45 years, our mission is simple. Value, hospitality, and consistency. That’s what you can expect from Espo’s, time and time again, not only now, but for generations to come.
Since our relaunch in 2019, our primary focus has been maintaining tradition, while embracing the future. With an updated renovation, expanded menu, catering, private event space, and outdoor dining, we are excited to serve New Jersey for another 50 years. Espo's prides itself on our classic Italian- American dishes. They are the core of our foundation, and the heart of our identity. Daily specials, and new favorite menu items give more options to our guests, while creating fun and excitement through the dining experience.
When you walk into Espo’s, you’ll feel transported back into time. Dark lighting, old school music, vintage decor, character, and personality are complemented by regular faces from our staff, family, and friends. The community has made Espo’s what it is today. Our small neighborhood restaurant and bar is filled with a unique dining experience that can only truly be explained by experiencing yourself. We can’t wait to serve you!
