Best Restaurants for Foodies in Avenel

Very nice place, good food and drinks recommendations, very friendly and knowledgeable waitress Tara. Management staff was very attentive. We love the restaurant and we will definitely come back.

We had a reservation at 7PM, due to bad weather conditions, the restaurant contacted me. We were able to move the reservation to 5PM. Shortly after we arrived the sky cleared up and we got an amazing view! The servers were all kind and the food tasted really good! It was a special experience!

Nobu offers delicious food, exceptional service, and the best lychee martini. However, the reception staff’s aloof and unwelcoming demeanor often leaves much to be desired. One can’t help but wonder who they think they are, given their role—likely earning a modest wage—yet carrying an air of superiority.

The River Cafe is probably the most beautiful and maybe the best restaurant in NYC. The views are stunning and the service without comparison. We had the vegetarian menu which was varied and delicious . There were a number complimentary “ gifts” from the chef in addition to the amuse bouche . The bread was excellent, beet salad was prepared table side , I had the truffle risotto and my companion the simple pasta dish which was also delicious . We both had the signature dessert - the Brooklyn bridge . I can recommend this restaurant highly . It’s expensive but worth every cent.

The best food, service, atmosphere, and overall dining experience on SI. Definitely got me in the holiday spirit with the festive decor too !
