Best Date Night Restaurants in Monmouth Junction

Eno Terra is one of the restaurants in the MOMO TERRA group. Their motto is "Eat local, Drink Global." They are a farm to table restaurant that sources their food products from local vendors, and their wine list has something for everyone. The building is a rustic stone building which lends a mountain lodge vibe. It also has outdoor seating in the summer. My wife and I shared an appetizer of Fried Calamari with roasted shishito peppers. The Calamari was outstanding, tender and flavorful and not overly breaded. The peppers were delicious. My wife had Spaghetti with seafood. It contained shrimp, clams, and mussels in a garlic broth with chile flakes. It was tasty, but if you like your food spicy, ask for more chile. I had a Pork Chop Milanese which was one of the specials. The pork chop was still on the bone and pounded flat and breaded. It was moist and tender. It was topped with a salad of red onion, arugula, tomato and figs, and then shaved parmesan cheese. Dessert looked good, but we were too full.

I Had a friend’s dinner for a 60th Birthday celebration of my dear long time friend and Ruth Chris delivered. Frank the waiter was amazing and charming. Most importantly the food was “Outstanding’. The steaks cooked as ordered and everything was delicious. Thank you for providing a wonderful experience and memorable evening for The Birthday Girl and her guests.

Awesome food and great service. Great place for a date night or family outing. Will NOT disappoint.

Upscale Indian food. Very tasty. Staff supplied a delicious birthday dessert and accommodated a young child at our table. We will be back soon.

I’ve heard such great things about this place and their steaks. So my friend and I went. I have to say I was really disappointed in the food. It was a Saturday at 5 pm, an early dinner for us, and we were the only ones in there. So it wasn’t like the kitchen was slammed. We both got the 7oz filet mignon. Mine looked good although her cut looked terrible almost like a steak patty where mine was nice a plump. The mashed potatoes were cold and again we were the only ones there. So a big disappointment and not a place I can recommend or want to go back to unfortunately
