Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Red Bank

Fantastic food, especially the New Year’s specials like cheesy pull apart bread and lobster ravioli. Service was a little slow. Food was quick to be delivered to our table - entrees came out before we were done with appetizers - but was delivered by runners rather than our server so we had to sit with empty glasses till our server finally returned. Probably a staffing issue due to the New Year’s holiday.

Went for brunch on New Year’s Day and everything was absolutely delicious. We all ordered something different and everybody loved what they had! I had no idea. They served brunch every day, but I will definitely be back for it!

Outstanding dining experience shared with out of town family who were guests for the holiday season. The River Cafe did not disappoint. The menu offered a dazzling array of options for each course and given the large selection, we were a bit concerned about their ability to deliver… we were extremely happy and quite frankly blown away by each course. The food was of the best quality, presented beautifully and tasted absolutely DELICIOUS. Our only disappointment was the water service - it seems so silly but we had to ask NUMEROUS times for water and wait and wait for our glasses to be refilled. This seems like a minor detail but a major annoyance that can be readily corrected. One other troubling detail that surprised us was the lack of toilet tissue in the Ladies Room- it appeared that no staff attended to the bathroom during our three hour meal. We raise these two points in support of The River Cafe’s commitment to excellence. A warm thanks to the Chef and their team for a wonderful meal and lovey dining experience.

Gorgeous setting. We had river views in summer there are outside tables. A stylish restaurant with a central bar area. The food was fast and delicious and had a great vegetarian selection. About 5mins walk from York Street. Really can’t recommend this place enough.

It was a great place, the first time. Nice atmosphere and great food and service!!
