Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Keyport

Great food and service. We had a reservation and showed up with two additional guests and they were able to accomodate us. Were super friendly. I have been here before many times, always great experience.

For Central Jersey, this was without doubt the finest meal I ever ate, in a relaxed intimate atmoshpere and all reasonably priced too. Our waiter John, was most attentive and also helped in making a great wine selection. My partner and I often go into New York City and we also loved the option to enjoy a "Pre Fixe" dinner, as we do before B'way shows. We are already considering our dining time for Christmas day and have newlywed neighbors, anxious to come with us. The GOAT will definetly be our "go to" dining experience when we want great food in an upscale setting, without the NYC prices. Congratulations RJ and staff for a Thanksgiving holiday, and a priest never lies. Looking forward to our next time. Blessings, Father Bryan +

We were well attended to, there was a very friendly guy, I don't remember his name, but he was very attentive, he offered to take pictures, and he takes good pictures! When I return to New York, I will return to this restaurant!

The River Cafe is my favorite restaurant in New York, and probably anywhere else too! The beautiful romantic atmosphere, amazing views, warm yet attentive service and truly exquisite food make for a perfect experience. It is a special occasion place, not for everyday, but we have celebrated our anniversary there several times (when in the city - we do not live in NYC), and this time it was our 50th. They did not disappoint! I hope I get to go back for many more special occasions. We took our adult son with us and he loved it as well.

Amazing food and great service. One of the best spots in NY for a special dinner. Lower level is definitely busier and more energetic. Prices are off the charts, but food is always spot on.
