Best Contemporary French American Restaurants in East Rutherford

I met today at Halcyon for brunch with a friend. The service was fairly attentive. It is a physically appealing venue with a very nice brunch menu. We both ordered the day's special omelette with smoked salmon. The dish was beautifully prepared, though the salmon was overly salty. The guavallini cocktail was delicious. The coffee was, unfortunately, not hot. Overall, it was a pleasant brunch experience and I would come back again.

Pleasantly surprised! The food was delicious. My husband and I were shocked by the amount of food we got. Very generous portions. Price was reasonable. Everything was unique. We’d definitely come back again next time we’re in New York and I’d definitely recommend for a date night or outing with friends

We have dined here several times but this was really an outstanding experience. Everything was delicious, served professionally and the noise level was comfortable. I had the special arugula corn and avocado salad, followed by the duck breast with figs. I loved the large slices instead of the usual many thin slices. It was tender and juicy. The figs were marinated and out of this world. I shared the warm bread pudding with my husband. Delicious. The only negative was the espresso. Watery and tasteless. Our friends loved their meal as well. We enjoyed the whole thing so much we stayed 3 hours!

Wonderful. Went on a Thursday evening after the holidays. Ate early because we were seeing an 8 pm opera. Beautiful space. Delicious food. Excellent cocktails. Friendly staff. Great service. Not cheap. However, there were fresh flowers and real candles on the table, and a live person playing the piano. Highly recommend it.

Great food and drinks, and couldn’t do enough for us when planning my wife’s birthday drinks here. Will definitely be back.
