Best Date Night Restaurants in East Brunswick

We have been dining at fresco since it opened years ago. It is one of the places you go for special events or just a lovely dinner or lunch. Service is always professional, friendly, and timely. You are never rushed and the food is always prepared perfectly.

I found this place through Instagram. The owner chef was in the short reel and his presentation was eye catching. So I booked a reservation for Valentines Day dinner with my wife as early as I could. The welcome when we walked in was great, the owner was with the host and makes you feel special upon entry. The rose he gave me for my wife was a nice touch. The staff was attentive and everyone looks great! Shout out to Omar the captain who took care of me and my pregnant wife all night. He made sure we felt special, while we noticed his consistent service throughout the evening. The ambiance was special, loved the velvety blue tufted booth benches. The music was a whole vibe, felt like I was in all the old school Mobster movies with classics playing in the background. The food was amazing! When I say you can literally pick anything from the menu and be very pleased I mean it. Apps, main courses, chefs kiss. My wife and I have steak on a regular basis so we went with their Mixed Grill and the Yellowfin Tuna, amazing! I need to go back to try every dish. Don’t eat with your eyes, you will be stuffed but guess what, who cares it was all great for left overs the next day. Theyre doing it right, and from the experience, I only expect this guy to keep stepping it up because he takes pride in his craft. We will be returning, most definitely a spot for anniversaries and birthdays to come.

Awesome service. We were late for our reservation and the manager was kind enough to accommodate us. Our waiter George was amazing. From his attentiveness to his recommendations of food was phenomenal. Will definitely come back when the weather get nice so we can sit outside.

This was our 1st dining experience at Salt. We enjoyed a great glass of Chardonnay & an amazing cocktail, misery loves company!!! Appetizers we very good too. Coney Island chowder hit the spot & the roasted oysters were delicious. For entrees we had Halibut & Florida grouper. The halibut was a bit underwhelming but my grouper was scrumptious. Our server Harviar was attentive as well as the entire dining room staff. We will be back for sure.

This was our first visit to Steakhouse 85. We enjoyed the whole experience. The food, service, value and ambiance were top of the line. We were there on their Date Night. For $125 a couple, you get an appetizer, entree, desert and bottle of wine from their short list. The selections for Date Night gave us good choices and we chose things that we were going to order originally. I will definitely go back and highly recommend it!
