Cree is a first class experience. The food is excellent. Even better are the carefully curated wines recommended for each dish. Cree is also my go-to wine store. Great selection.

lovely spot for wine and cocktails and some really good dishes.
the best dish was the Sicilian chicken hands down (ordered for our kids but all took a few ha) pork chop is good too, japanese whiskey flight is great, scallops excellent esp the sauce, cocktails are soso, stick to wine bourbon and whiskey flights all excellent. burrata was good, bread basket a bit slow to come out was solid, steak special was good to split and cooked perfectly. charcuterie board was really good too. great staff and set up table as asked with champagne. chairs and tables bit hard to eat on but good lounge setting for friends. desserts were only average all 3 of them bill for 6 ppl was $750 so plan accordingly
Wonderful experience! Delicious dinner and fantastic wine pairings.

Phenomenal! The inside is decorated gorgeously but the outside dining area is so stunning and relaxing! Every bite of food we had was perfection. They not only have an extensive wine list, but a fully stocked bar. Service was excellent. We ordered 2 apps, 2 meals, and dessert and it was all truly wonderful. I wouldn’t change a thing here. Happy to have another local place to add to my dining rotation!

Master of Wine Chris Cree and his very talented team continue to set the bar. I visited in August. The wine selections, wine pairings, stellar service and amazing food are a winning combination. Bravo.

Chris Cree is one of 57 Wine Masters in the United States and New Jersey's only person to attain this status. He is unassuming, understated, brilliant and nice....often a rare combo for a person with true wine expertise that is deep and proven. We enjoyed small plates and dinner and enjoyed the very cool and generous Wine Wednesday program offered, which offers all bottles for purchase without a corkage or restaurant mark-up....a huge savings. And Chris' collection is known far and wide for being interesting and expansive. Tom, who was on board for the wine program during our visit, is wonderful...fun, professional and knowledgable. Our small plates were delicious, edamame, burrata, and shishito peppers...each dish beautiful and fantastic. We then moved on to our meals....hamburger, crispy chicken and two of us enjoyed the scallops. A+++. The space is very attractive, with different rooms offering differing vibes. What a great space! They offer classes, special wine dinners, tastings, flights and private events. Take a ride to the former Perryville Inn and see how it has been transformed in to a must visit when living in or driving through NJ. Can't wait to return.

Decent food but not amazing. Don’t come here and expect amazing food. Lots of wine options. Wednesday Wine day. Bread is not warm. The swordfish is quite dry and tough. Good, elegant vibe. Service was understaffed. Not attentive enough since not enough workers. Nice art. This is not a restaurant so choose your credit card wisely.
Unbelievably good wines and food. Seriously first class all around. If you like 5-star food and top notch wines from around the world, look no further. Chris Cree has a winner on his hands!

Visited from Chicago, it was a lovely venue with outstanding service (thanks Grace!) and amazing wine.Try the flights, a group of four of us traded glasses and tried 4 different flights, everything was excellent.Food was just as amazing, highly recommended the steak, sea bass, chicken, charcuterie and salads. We tried everything and shared lots, it was all delicious.
