Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Colts Neck

Il Nido has emerged under new ownership as a new and different restaurant. To their longtime customers, it’ll probably never be the same again. But for people looking for good Italian food in a cozy setting, you’ll have an enjoyable night. Some of the higher priced entrees fell short. The oxtail special, apps, and dessert were a highlight.

Met a friend there for lunch. Food & service were excellent. Dining room was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Very festive.

As usual I very much enjoyed my meal. Due to having Celiac disease I can only eat the gluten free penne which you cook perfectly with your great sauses. It would be soooo great if you got GF seasoned bread crumbs so I could order your great chicken parm.-baked clams-stuffed mushrooms It would also be great if you had an option to get GF bread at the beginning of the meal with the cocktails ...toasted w/butter,,, with your homade eggplant tompinade. I know there might be a cost for it, but if you keep it reasonable restricted eaters like myself would not complain

Istanbul Bay Premium never disappoints. With its outstanding food (quality, variety), an exceptional service, and a pleasant ambiance, it has quickly become one of our favorites in New Jersey.

On a warm November Wednesday evening my husband and I had dinner at The Marina. Cozy and quiet on the water with seating now indoors - summer seating outside closed. A lovely seasonal menu offered Autumn Salad, scallop and crab cakes entrees followed by chocolate panacotta- all beautifully prepared and delicious. We’ll be back again to enjoy other seasonal menu offerings from a wonderful chef.
