“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!”

“My wife and I have been patrons and huge fans of Chez Catherine for nearly 30 years. Last Friday, we happily celebrated our 39th anniversary there with another very fine lunch. It's always a pleasure to be greeted like old friends by owner Stephane Bocket and seated at what we think is the best table in the tastefully decorated, elegant restaurant. We both chose the prix fixe menu. For starters, my wife had the always terrific moules and I a lovely mixed salad. We both chose beef bourguignons for our main course and asked Stephane to suggest wine from the by-the-glass list. His selections of a chablis for my wife and pinot noir for me worked perfectly with the outstanding bourguignons. We finished by sharing a delicious Baba au Rhum, prepared by Stephane at tableside. Dining at Chez Catherine is always a special event to us. Everything about it is first class. If you are unfamiliar with Chez Catherine, it has been one of New Jersey's Top 5 restaurants for nearly 40 years. We recommend it highly and urge lovers of fine dining to not wait but reserve a table NOW. We're sure you'll find it to be as special as we do.”

“Faubourg delivers a impressive modern French-Mediterranean dining experience in a stylish, high-energy space with a vibrant yet elegant atmosphere. The food is equally strong: the tuna tartare is wonderfully fresh, light, and impeccably seasoned, while the grilled octopus is remarkably tender with a perfect charred crust. Paired with warm, pleasant, and attentive service.”

“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.”
