Best Restaurants for Groups in Monmouth Junction

Great food—appreciate the updated menu. Nice to see new items added. Food quality is always excellent—fresh and delicious. Nice presentation too. Service was very good and waitress handled an allergy request very well (to ensure our guest with a seafood allergy did not order food fried in the same oil as the calamari.). Thank you! Staff seems a bit stretched so ensure you have time.

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.

BRAVO - WELL DONE! 5:00 on Saturday right after New Year. Almost full restaurant by 6pm. Our waiter was timely, attentive but not intrusive. Spicy shrimp appetizer - high quality ingredients cooked to perfection with toast baguette slices for dipping in addictive sauce. Not spicy so that is misleading. Grilled Octopus appetizer - perfect execution and taste. Cassoulet - a myriad of flavors - enjoyed everyone. A lot of beans. Flounder - Easy to mess up by overcooking but it was cooked perfectly along with green beans and light pasta accompaniment.

Matty was attentive, funny, kind and completely on point. We did not get the maitre d’s name but he was gracious as well! We decided to end the night at the bar and Josh and Jack (I think) were the absolute BOMB. The piece de reasistence Was. The. FOOD! For the table, oysters, lobster r dumplings, hot mess fries and calamari - omg, phenomenal. Brisket on the fries was a bit dull but still good. Then we individually had Filet Mignon & lobster, porter and lobster (not good, traded up for the filet) shrimp and scallops and salmon. We will be back once we recoup on the market what we spent last night but overall would do it again and again. Loved 🥂
