Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Bedminster

Surprisingly good food. Not a huge menu, but what they have is executed very well. Clams were a huge surprise and totally delicious. Cauliflower tempura is perfect and crispy. Ribeye was huge and seared well, but over by one grade - recommend you under order your desired temp. Pork chop was tender and served in a velvety sauce (was it a demi glace?). I didn't prefer the pasta with pork belly, thought it needed more sauce even though it tasted fine as it was. Service was fine but not as attentive as you night want for fine dining. Given the setting, it was ok. The view of course was amazing but do expect lots of tourists with small children speaking loudly. Not a good option for a romantic quiet chat. That having been said, the prix fixe lunch was a pretty good value at $80pp. I think the dinner menu is identical, so at $150pp that's a bit pricey. Go for lunch up to 4om, and save yourself some money, plus you get to watch the sunset, then see the city in both day and night. You can stay as long as you wish after your meal. Remember to arrive at least 15-30 minutes before your reservation since you have to go through several lines, a 1 minute elevator ride, and a 2-minute movie before you actually can get into the restaurant. Go to the west entrance of the building, then head down the escalator to guest services where you get priority tickets to the observatory floor. You also have to go through an airport-style security checkpoint complete with xray and metal detector, so be careful what you're carrying. Overall,, this is definitely an experience i would recommend, even to a long time native New Yorker.

Excellent food and a welcoming environment service was excellent. Excellent as well. Highly recommended.

Excellent service by Melvin. We were intrigued by some of the specials but find hard to deviate from the date night menu, which is an excellent value with a lot of choices. We shared the honey crisp salad to start. This is split in the kitchen and that makes a difference. The half portion is large with the cheese and pecans is wonderful. We also ordered the calamari, which is delicious but took most of it home as the portion is huge. Entrees were the king salmon, which was expertly prepared, and the filet mignon. There is an up charge but again the portion is large and also came home! We shared the apple tart for dessert which came with ice cream but took the other home. So many different tastes…a really nice evening.

Fantastic restaurant. We went here with one half of the family on Christmas Eve. It was so great that we took the other half here on the day after Christmas. Every dish was fantastic. Service is on point. Get there early and sit at the bar. Great vibe. Upscale, relaxed.

Great place to celebrate holidays Second year in a row we went there for Xmas Eve.
