Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Elizabeth

I cannot remember the lady manager working on 12/23 at 4:30, but absolutely amazing. She was exceptional and very attentive to the patrons of the restaurant. Inessa and the server assistant were phenomenal. It was my first time visiting but I will definitely be back because their customer service was excellent!!!

Our food was absolutely incredible. For the first course we had the shrimp, mussels, and meatballs. All were cooked and seasoned to perfection. For my entree I got the beef short ribs and my friends both got the ravioli. The short ribs were so tender and paired perfectly with the mashed potatoes and miso sauce. Both of my friends finished their ravioli and had rave reviews. We finished off with the Sweet Home Carolina dessert, which was very rich and tasted a lot like a snickers bar. Our server, Basil, was very attentive and knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back!

We found the Fug Tree on Open table and a travel blog recommendation and it was exactly what we were looking for! We had a fabulous time celebrating my daughter’s 23rd birthday trip from Los Angeles -- and met others celebrating their anniversaries. We shared 2 apps, a salad, 1 main, and ordered 3 drinks (2 different cocktails and a glass of wine) — and unfortunately didn’t have room for dessert which we were looking forward to — but they still brought some homemade chocolates on a plate inscribed Happy Birthday with a candle, which was lovely! The wait staff were very personable and took great care of us including splitting shared dishes without being asked. The cocktails were unique and yummy. The food was a fantastic mix of flavors and cooked to perfection. The house was tastefully decorated for the holidays. Compared to LA prices it was at least 50% less expensive than a similar experience — but we did tip a lot more than we usually would since service was fantastic and min wage in NC is about 1/4 of that in CA.

I always love the customshop! The team, especially Zoe and Kyle always make us feel welcome and make it enjoyable. The food is always outstanding and they have THE BEST espresso martini I’ve ever had!

I wish it was informed by the restaurant staff ahead that preferred quite time schedules are post 9:00pm. We came in at 7:00 pm on Wednesday and the all the tables were full with clients which is great for the business but it was pretty noisy. It was so noisy that Chinese Buffet noise level was much elegantly elevated compared to what I experienced at Fahrenheit that night. People come here to have a romantic date/anniversary and high level meetings. Unfortunately I couldn’t feel such elegancy vibe during our visit due to the high noise level by the other tables around. Maybe having a classical music in background can help to let people know to calm it down bit
