Looking for restaurants in Byram, NJ? Our team rounded up five Byram Township restaurants we confirmed are open right now, from an Italian tavern on Tamarack Road to a sushi spot, a pizzeria and a lakeside bar and grill along the Route 206 corridor.

One thing to know before you search: many Byram restaurants use Stanhope or Andover mailing addresses, so a map app may list them under those towns even though they sit inside Byram Township. Hours, addresses and menu details below come from each restaurant’s own website.
