Since the opening of their acclaimed Restaurant Nicholas in 2000, Chef Nicholas Harary and his wife, Melissa, modernized the concept of fine dining. This mainstay of Red Bank garnered some of the industry’s highest praise, including 15 straight years as Zagat’s highest-rated restaurant in New Jersey, a 4-star review in the New York Times, and a position on several national “best restaurant” lists.

Now, with Barrel & Roost, the couple strips off the white tablecloths and serves up a bold new menu: made-from-scratch food that’s crazy-delicious, yet entirely accessible any night of the week. Set in a newly redesigned modern farmhouse interior, Barrel & Roost is just the place to enjoy Chef Driven Comfort Food with family, old friends, or a grab a drink at the bar for date night!

    Nicholas Barrel & Roost is by far one of the best and top restaurant in Monmouth County. The food is excellent as far as the service goes the servers doesn’t always come back to check on us and sometimes we’re waiting longer than usual just to get a refill on drinks.  Most of the time the service is excellent this past Sunday’s experience, the service wasn’t as good as usual as different people were bringing our food and there was confusion on who got what. All in all, it was still a good experience and will dine here again.

    Had brunch here today. Food was warm not hot. Very good, but could have been a little hotter considering it was quiche. Overall place is great but today was a fluke I think.
