    Pork chop was one of the very best I have ever had! Everyone enjoyed their meal, only thing not great was the bread, I always feel finer restaurants should serve either great, warm artisan bread or none at all. Service was great and atmosphere lovely

    I have been to many of the finer steak restaurants in the NYC and NJ. This place was Excellent and not a complaint to be made about service, food, and vibe. It is not a stuffy type steakhouse and more modern in style. The porterhouse for two was amazing and the appetizers, pasta, and sides were all spot on. Highly recommend this location .

    Went to the Park West Tavern for the first time for a late lunch, I was met very cordially and was seated immediately. The wait staff was knowledgeable and very professional. The food was outstanding as the appetizers were delicious as so different. The apps were the Pork Belly Confit and Gnocchi. The two of us ordered the Wagyu Burger which was the most delicious burger that I have ever had. All in all, the overall experience was amazing and I would highly recommend the Park West Tavern.
