Best Contemporary French American Restaurants in New Providence

Aaron, our waiter was outstanding!!! He was friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful!!! Our food was delicious- I had the fish tacos, my daughter had the chicken sandwich and my sons had steak and Shrimp Fra Diablo! For dessert, we had the strawberry sundae! We had a wonderful experience and will definitely return!

I have been to New York many times and have always wanted to try Butter, but I was always alone and when I go to nicer restaurants I always want to have a shared dining experience. This week my husband and I had a week of Christmas in New York and I made sure Butter was on the list of places we would eat. Butter did not disappoint. The hostess and our server Janeth were top-notch. I had a modified Butter Espresso Martini minus the Mezcal. Delicious. For dinner, we split a Buratta Salad and some Parker House Rolls. Whatever the vinaigrette that accompanied the salad was fabulously delicious. The best hunk of Buratta which was so creamy and not the usual curds that most burattas are. The acorn squash and delicata chips were a welcome accompaniment. The Parker House rolls were better than any I've had in Boston's Parker House. We both had the Brazino with Rainbow Chard in a lemon sauce viniagrette. Crispy skin, and tender fish. Well done. We had a bottle of Whitehall Lane Sauvignon Blanc. I was the only who had dessert, just one scoop of the Mocha Chocolate Ice Cream. Perfect finish to a wonderful dining experience or so I thought. Our lovely server Janeth, who was a delight all evening brought us a glass of lovely Champagne to send us off into the busy cold New York City night. The reason I had heard of Butter was because a former New England Patriots Quarterback used to frequent the place and also I am kind of a fan of the own of the restaurant. But yes, if you are in NYC and want a lovely dinner, visit Butter. You won't be sorry!

Born and raised in nyc and I can definitely confirm that this restaurant without a doubt is the most authentically romantic place to have a date night in the city. The food was exquisite! Made you want to keep eating even though you’re full. I proposed to my girlfriend here and it was everything I imagined and then some. Through the proposal planning process of how to do it, the staff was almost more excited about it than I was. This restaurant is the personification of a 10 out of 10.

Milling Room is a great spot for a date night meal. The ambiance and styling aim to impress which it did. The food is above average without going over the top in either presentation or price. Just watch out for the drink prices. The waiter up charged by 50% for a Hendrix martini, without informing, then tried to pass it off that I should have known the menu price was well liquor. Despite the blatant attempt at a rip off, I will be back

We love this restaurant. Been back a few times and always pleased with the food and service!
