Best restaurants near me in Jackson, NJ

Always the perfect spot for a reunion with friends! Parc’s food, service and professional staff met all our expectations today: from the seafood appetizers to the the trout amandine, comforting roasted chicken, delicious mussels, and chicken paillard, everyone enjoyed their lunch. Our server, Tiffany, was wonderful.

We started the night with our server Lisa Gavin bringing us what was in my notes, champagne for our 29 anniversary! Wow that was lovely as was she. The app course was good and freshly made. The main we ordered the bison and none in ribeye. It came out so fast I didn't even get to breathe between courses. The food was sent back to keep warm because I needed to use the ladies room which shouldn't happen. I returned and we were served. The bison was supreme but it ended there. The ribeye was over cooked and cool. The lyonnaise potato was greasy and under seasoned and the asparagus was mushy and cold. If not for the most delightful service and all the subtle little things Lisa did inc a candle in a petite creme brulee, we would have sent the sides, which are extra cost back!! P.S. we traveled an hour and a half to be there. May think twice next time.

Glad we made Open Table reservations. This place is always crowded. Every table is taken. This time we had Leo to be our server. And like all the rest, he was very good and professional. Everything was great as usual.

My friends and I just had the loveliest experience dining at La Campagnola. It is December and the restaurant positively gleamed with lights and greenery. Everyone at our table commented on how festive it felt to be surrounded by such beauty. The food was excellent, too! We started with three different hors d’ oeuvres and shared. We had the burrata, the shrimp wrapped in bacon, and the calamari. Each was delicious, but the most impressive part was the chef’s willingness and skill in making each item gluten-free. Instead of the usual preparation, he grilled the calamari and served it with lemon and olive oil. (Perfection!) As our second course, we enjoyed either fresh salads with the delicious house dressing, or a cup of hearty, homemade beef & vegetable soup. For our main course, we were each accommodated to our particular needs and tastes. The Chicken Alfredo was prepared with gluten-free pasta, which got raves. The Oceans Gardens was served over pappardelle upon request and received high praise, both for the taste of the seafood and the “bite” of the pasta. I ordered the Maple Duck, which was tender and succulent, and substituted steamed vegetables and a (mammoth) baked potato. I would love to report on the dessert but we were all too full to indulge. However, I can say that our server recommended a smooth, buttery red wine that was a perfect compliment to our meals. Finally, a word about the staff. Our server, Patrick, was both charming and professional. Young Aidan, our busser, was attentive without being obtrusive. The manager stopped by each table throughout the evening to add that personal touch. Overall, it was a perfect experience!

Excellent service and food, as always !! We go here for all our special occasions
