    Not the cheapest steakhouse but far from the most expensive. Excellent and consistent experience anytime we go. Steaks and side dishes are all premium and the ambiance and service are above and beyond normal restaurant experience IMHO. Wait was minimal with a reservation. Highly recommended.

    This was our first time at Banks but it will not be our last. We had read about the good restaurants on the Riverwalk and just decided to try Banks for our first visit. The service was perfect, not rushed but just a nice pace for our meal. The food was amazing. Our waitress suggested the tuna and it was absolutely perfect. We sat in the bar section and were very surprised at how nice and quiet it was. I would like to go back in the warmer months and get a table out in their patio.

    My husband and I are Maryland “crab snobs”! DiPaolo’s is the only restaurant in NJ where we will eat the crab cakes — all crabmeat- amazing and delicious!! Can’t go wrong with their steaks either. Actually we have been eating there for years and every meal had been delicious. Shared a fabulous tomahawk steak with my grandson there during Thanksgiving weekend.
