You need to be prepared for the sticker shock at this place. However, dollar per dollar, it's worth it. <br> We sampled the 9 course meal prepared by New Jersey's finest chef. Along with a wine tasting for each course, we had a two and one half hour dining feast. The restaurant's decor was excellent. The grounds were well-maintained. <br> Normally, you don't eat garnishes, however I strongly recommend you throw that rule out when dining here. Never before have I tasted vegetables that "explode with flavor" in your mouth. <br> Don't believe it? Give them a try......... less

This restaurant is on every top ten New Jersey restaurant list. While I certainly think that the food was good, the service was excellent, the grounds were beautiful, etc., I do not believe that this is one of the great New Jersey restaurants. This is a place where jackets and ties are expected for gentlemen. There seems to be a large corporate clientele (probably on expense accounts). Portions are small. The tasting menu (I think this costs something like $80) takes forever to get through...a whole batch of small courses. less
