The food was good. We had a party of 4. In all we had 5 meals. We wanted to have the homemade gnocchi to share as an appetizer, but they ended up not having it. We ended up sharing the lobster ravioli, which was good. For our entrees we had the seafood risotto, which was excellent, the cod special (which was good but very small piece of fish), chicken dish and the yellowfin tuna special (was just ok). Overall, we had a nice time and will go back if in the area

As a long time fan of White Castle, the idea of a special Valentine’s Day sit down dinner with menus and table service is really fun. Such a break from other pretentious restaurants that overcharge on Valentine’s Day with limited menus. The Green Brook staff is to be commended. Will return each year! Thank you.
