I have lived in Monmouth County my whole life and consider going out to eat a hobby of mine. I love trying new restaurants and these are my best recommendations in the area!
Map
Elevated atmosphere, fun cocktails, MUST get the burger!
River Pointe Inn
Fresh, local food - all of their homemade pastas are AMAZING
Semolina Restaurant
The best sushi in Monmouth county, must get the crispy spicy tuna and the red dragon roll!
Taka
Dining here is a whole experience! The best paella I’ve EVER had
Lita
Amazing Italian food, definitely order the meatballs!
Birravino
This place is a whole vibe, get the french onion soup and save room for dessert!
Pascal & Sabine
Amazing Portuguese food, get the sangria and paella!
Mar Belo Portuguese Restaurant/Lounge
Delicious food, amazing cocktails, and decorated beautifully. I crave the halibut!
The Squire
Great for sit-down Chinese. The black pepper filet mignon and crispy creamy shrimp are must haves!
Beijing Bistro Red Bank
Top tier Italian food, need to make a reservation in advance! Order the spicy vodka sauce (it may not be listed on menu but they always make it)
Anjelica's Restaurant
Feels like you stepped into a NYC Italian restaurant. Top-notch food and huge portions.
