Best Steakhouses in Rumson

Outstanding seafood restaurant with extensive menu of fresh seafood. Lobster pot pie and steamed Lobster were fairly priced and as good as it gets. I also rate the raw bar oysters and clams as perfect. Don't miss this place.

Great food!!! The mushrooms were unbelievably good. The fish was perfectly cooked! The brussel sprouts were crunchy and tasty! The apple crumble was delicious! It would be better if it's warm and not cold; the flavors were all there though. Francesca was amazing at helping me with the reservation, she went above and beyond for getting a good table and making sure the menu options would be there for dinner time (as the menu was limited on Christmas day). Her friendly and professional kind attitude went a long way. Thank you for the hospitality Francesca!

The dining experience here is nothing short of exceptional, with outstanding service that perfectly complements the superb cuisine. The decor and ambiance transport you to a quintessential steakhouse setting, blending timeless charm with a contemporary twist—exposed brick and a lofty industrial aesthetic set the stage beautifully. The cocktail menu deserves special praise, with the Mezcal Old Fashioned standing out as a true masterpiece—a smoky, nuanced twist on the classic that’s worth savoring. As for the star of the meal, we indulged in the dry-aged New York strip sirloin, expertly prepared to a flawless medium. The steak was a revelation, its tender richness melting like butter with each bite. Though I typically gravitate toward a ribeye, this strip was a compelling choice that did not disappoint. Every detail, from the ambiance to the culinary execution, reflected a thoughtful commitment to quality, making this steakhouse an unforgettable experience.

We have eaten at Char in Red Bank several times and we are always very pleased. Food is delicious and cocktails are perfectly made. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a steakhouse with ambiance and a nice bar area.

Another great experience at the Drifthouse—food, surroundings, and view are wonderful. However, the consistent attentive, professional, and very friendly staff are always reasons to return frequently. The manager, Hafid Elbroji, always makes us feel welcome and at home. Thank you!
