French Restaurants near Newark, NJ

“Idk what the bad reviews are about, this place is wonderful. The food is delicious, waiter staff are on point, drinks are generous (compared to other restaurants in the terminal), good portions. Yes it is expensive, but you are eating at the airport!. I will continue visiting this restaurant.“

“I’m sorry for all those people who had a bad experience here. I stopped by for a salad, and it was way above my expectations. Fresh, perfectly dressed, yummy until the last bite. I very rarely like salads in the US, as they are dry and tasteless. This meal was totally an exception.
My waiter was friendly and caring, again way better than in many city restaurants, let alone the airports.
Thank you so much, I’ll be back.“

“Just got home from our 1st visit. The meal was spectacular. My wife had foie gra mousse and I had the beet salad both were great, entree black bass and duck breast both cooked to perfection the dessert was wonders. Great attentive service. Had the pleasure of meeting the chef, Sadie and the gen. Manager Melanie, they could not have been more accommodating. I highly recommend, parking might be hard to find. I will return and soon, they are going to offer the foo gra in puff pastry, I go just for that. I found it reasonably priced. My wife enjoyed her 70th birthday meal as much as I did.“

“The food and drinks were great, and the restaurant had a beautiful aesthetic without being too busy. As someone who usually dines in New York City but has grown tired of the George Washington Bridge and Lincoln Tunnel traffic, I’ve been looking for great spots in Jersey. This was a great addition, and I’ll definitely return.“

“Not our first visit to Lorena's - this location and previous...No reservation, walk-in last Sunday afternoon. Comfortable bar seating; cozy atmosphere. Solid pour drinks with terrific appetizer dining. Salmon tartare and the best French Onion soup....finished off with a great Au Poivre Burger...Many thanks....topped off a beautiful weekend.“

“My husband and I are total foodies and love supporting small businesses, and this place was recommended to us by a friend. We were in the mood for something that felt like a dinner date without heading too far from home, and Adour totally hit the mark. Let me tell you, for the affordable prices, the quality of the food blew us away. The ambiance was exactly what we were looking for cozy, elevated, and with great vibes all around. We kept it classic with a rosé and a Hugo Spritz (both so refreshing), for starters we got the mussels in tomato sauce, and for dinner we ordered the lamb chops and the Adour burger with truffle fries - absolutely to die for. We ended the night with their apple crumble dessert, and it was the perfect finish. 😍 Bonus: they serve brunch, too! No need to trek to JC or Hoboken for that cute, trendy, affordable brunch spot, it’s right here in the neighborhood. Tell George I sent you! 😏“

“La Boheme is a great restaurant, and my friend and I love coming here. The food is delicious, and the service is wonderful. Veronica always helps us with our reservations and anything we need. She is so kind and friendly. We have had JJ as our server numerous times, and he is always so positive and kind. He has such great energy and is always putting smiles on everyone's faces. I highly recommend this restaurant. It's always a great time!“

“From start to finish, our experience was absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every detail from the service to the food was top notch. The new owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, checking in throughout the evening and truly making us feel like valued guests. The chef is nothing short of incredible. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell there’s a deep passion and talent behind the menu especially if you’re a fan of French Mediterranean cuisine, which was executed to perfection. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an elevated yet cozy dining experience. A must visit spot that I’ll definitely be returning to!“

“Our 40th Anniversary dinner was amazing last night! From the service to the food and meeting the chef after! What a wonderful restaurant especially for a special occasion! Thank you for an amazing night!“

“We ordered so many incredible signature dishes. The lamb moussaka was 5 stars! To really test them we ordered one of the best lahmanchoun’s we’ve tasted in NY! Cozy atmosphere, attentive waitstaff, Momo JC definitely exceeded our expectations!“

“This place offers excellent food, brilliant service, and a wonderful, chill ambiance. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the soccer World Cup is being shown on big screens at both locations.
Definitely recommend, because the cocktails and food are yummy.“

“Cafe Monet has been a favorite of ours for years. The food is always outstanding - inventive and tasty. In addition to wonderful savory dishes, Cafe Monet offers excellent dessert items, freshly prepared o site. The atmosphere transports patrons to a friendly French bistro.“

“Beautiful decor, and atmosphere, the people are friendly and a pleasure to speak to.“

“Wish had menu or weekly display of what available during week or daily“

“I love coming to Wasai Bistro whenever I’m visiting the east coast. I’ve followed Chef Nelson since his days at Aozora and Wabi Sabi. His food quality, menu options, and value are unmatched in the area. Once you try his food you will understand why he has so many repeat diners. I highly recommend the Mes Reves Roll, Uni and bone marrow ramen, Miso glazed sea bass entree and salmon lover entree but it’s very hard to go wrong with anything Chef Nelson serves. Parking is street parking only but honestly I’ve always had a very easy time finding a spot. BYOB so you can drink what you love.“

“Nice coffee place, they have breakfast options and desserts as well. If you dine in they have a second floor, which is more spacious, quiet and very cute.

Parking: Most of the time I am able to find street parking just by cafe, but sometimes you have to circle around“

“Love this place! They have some of the best food in jersey city. Every time i call or come in they know who i am, and are always very nice. And what i like the most about them is that they have great Mexican food and great chinese food, so i always have alot of different choices to choose from lol...“

“I love this place, whether to sit down and enjoy it or simply make a quick stop. The only problem for me has always been the customer service. Before today, I had never been treated well — there was often arrogance and a lack of empathy, especially because my English is poor. That made me stop coming here.

But today I decided to stop by, and for the first time I was treated very well. The care this new employee showed by listening to me and suggesting something was truly thoughtful. I was happy not to feel judged for not speaking English well.

I will start coming here again. The desserts and food are truly wonderful, but being treated badly is very frustrating.“

“Food was delicious and fairly priced. I had the smoked salmon sandwich. Loved the taste of the blue cheese mixed in with the salmon, red onions, and avocados.“

“The jerk shrimp and scallop appetizer was absolutely amazing. I will most definitely be revisiting this place frequently.“
