Best Historic Restaurants in Elizabeth

Our server was Jordan, and she was amazing! She was so kind to us and very informative and helpful with the menu and specials. My boyfriend had the Penne Carbonara, and I had the Capellini Pomodoro E Basilico, which I added grilled chicken to. Both dishes were absolutely amazing! The portion sizes were large as well, which we appreciated! The manager on duty was also very kind both over the phone and in person. We really appreciated everyone making our night special and staying open for us as the last reservation of the evening. We do not regret choosing Porcini for our belated Valentine’s Day date / celebration, and we would both definitely recommend Porcini to others for an intimate & upscale date night experience, 100%!

We got a last minute reservation for Valentine’s Day and didn’t know much about this place prior to our arrival! I have celiac and they had a great gluten free menu with lots of choices, also lots of house made pastas for the gluten eaters. The mussels app was to die for as was the swordfish! Great experience!! Definitely recommend

This was my first time at The Last Refuge, and I had a great experience. Staff were amazing and attentive even though it was a busy night. It would be nice to see a couple more items on the menu, maybe more pasta items, as the one looked good. The appetizer, salad, and pizza was really good. I would love to come back when the weather is warmer as it looked like there was a nice patio. Overall, it was a very nice night and will come back.

Brown hotel is a beautiful setting for a date night. Valentine’s Day was very special and memorable to spend with the restaurant staff. Grace who we were lucky enough to have for the second time took such wonderful care of us. Food and specialty cocktails were excellent.

Run dont walk for Wednesday wine specials! So many options you would except to find at a great steakhouse. Mix it with a delicious slice of pizza and you have the making of the perfect girls night out! Will be back often!
