Wonderful fresh ingredients flavorful in every dish.
Try the rib eye!
Staff was super friendly and the food was better than I imagined it would be! Fresh fish and meat specials were amazing with perfect accompaniments. I had the salmon and it was fantastic. The deserts were delicious. Definatly going back!
We’ve never had a bad meal here. Our family of 5 (3 kids) went for lunch. The bone broth was delicious (we took a quart to go) and we ordered one of every dessert. I wish we lived closer, we would come weekly!
Nice dinner. Great service.
It was my husband and my first time having stumbled upon the restaurant while scrolling open table. Well... Food was fantastic, service was amazing and I loved the low key dining room. It was a perfect evening and we will definitely be back!
FANTASTIC food and cool environment!!! The staff is very helpful and friendly . It is a BYOB and there's a liquor store just a block away .
Cannot wait to come back !
We have been coming here for years and have never been disappointed. The food is absolutely delicious. My boyfriend has celiac and it’s nice that he never has to worry about cross contamination since even on the menu (from soups to desserts) is gluten free! I only wish they would open for brunch again. We miss that!
Fabulous food and service!
The soup and salad, both specials, were excellent. My fish special was salty, but the other main entry we ordered was perfectly cooked and a generous portion.
It’s always the food was excellent
The food was subpar - steak was cooked oddly and not evenly - the waitress was great - the dessert was good but would have been better served room temperature.
The quality of the food is outstanding and exactly what we need!
Enjoyed our Valentine’ dinner here. Had a few specials- scallops app and Filet entree- both excellent. Service was great and fast. Will definitely be back soon!
Always consistently great...this is my husband and my favorite restaurant! We even drive 30 minutes to come for every special occasion/date night. The food is always great and the portions are perfect. We also never feel like we are cheating on our "lifestyle diet." The staff is always friendly and super professional, the place is spotless, adorable & cozy and we always feel like it's our own personal place. Such a great experience...make sure you book your next outing here!
I've been coming here for a few years as I only eat paleo. The food is always delicious and service is excellent!
I always wish there was the availability to give 1/2 * on this app because this would be 4.5.... it’s very difficult to find this quality on the Jersey Shore . There are a handful of restaurants at best . Chef Doug does a great job across the board - seared sea scallops on slab bacon was decadent . Thai coconut soup was spot on . Grass fed meatball with burrata was very rich , would have liked a little more tomato sauce to dunk it in . Filet main course was awesome and desserts perfect portions ... we will go back for sure .
The food was absolutely outstanding! Everything was cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth. The flavors were amazing!! We felt very comfortable with the social distancing and it was immaculate. Our server was super attentive and lovely. The food also was paced very well. We had such a fantastic meal and experience and can't wait to go back! Highly, highly reccomend!
Food is always great here I try something new every time and I haven’t been disappointed yet one of the best spots around
Great date night spot and healthy food to boot. Our waitress Sara was awesome. Duck fat fried Brussels sprouts are the best. We also had cauliflower bacon soup that was amazing. My wife and I went with burgers and they were fabulous. Cooked to perfection and great flavor. Mine came with fries with truffle salt. Never had them before. We had peered truffle salt by the time we got home. Can’t wait to go back.
Couldn't pass up my favorite dish, the zoodles Bolognese
The food was very fresh and the meat was tender. I would recommend and like to try other specials they may have.
Cavé is one of my favorite restaurants to eat at. The atmosphere is always welcoming, the food is guaranteed to be outstanding, and I typically will travel about an hour just for the chance to eat there.
We always have a great meal here...highly recommend!
Excellent. Service by Meg :). Great chef... perfection
Always a treat. The butternut squash and apple soup was perfect on a cold winter day! And the bison burger is worth repeating! Lovely lunch with friends; service was great, tables are well spaced out and we were not rushed.
My husband and I enjoyed dinner here despite the limited menu. Substitutions are also not permitted so you must order the meal as is. Food and service were excellent. I ordered the short rib and my husband had a bone in ribeye. Added a side of brussels which were amazing. French fries were also to die for. Too full for dessert but maybe next time and there will definitely be a next time. BYOB too!
Best gluten free restaurants in the area. Food is always amazing. Service is fast. And the only place that’s worth going to during covid!
Sibling and significant others date night. My brother and his wife had never been so we were excited to take them. Food was great - we ate everything.
Cavé is the best restaurant at the jersey shore. Hands down. The best quality food, 100% consistent delivery on all fronts. Taste, service, presentation. They nail everything.
Fantastic! Cave has been on my list of places to try for a while. So happy I made it and will definitely return. The Bison burger on sweet potato hash bun was so good. And the brussel sprouts were crispy deliciousness! Cute place and great, friendly service!
Amazing experience! Steak was absolutely amazing! Kim the waitress was excellent and made dinner so enjoyable! I will for sure be back!
The food was amazing and waitress was awesome. Definitely a place we love to come often to we are never disappointed.
Amazing food
Met my sister for a birthday lunch. Food was delicious and the service was exceptional!
Good food and very friendly service. A little pricey for what it is but if you value service and ambiance over food then definitely a good choice.
Everything on the menu looked incredible. Wish we were able to try more of it. Pork shank, Ribeye, and Sea Bass mains were great. All three appetizers as well.
So happy to find a place that is organic gluten-free vegan. We had vegetable wraps and desserts were excellent cheesecake cupcakes coffee everything our server was awesome friendly knowledgeable will be back for sure.
Great food and service interesting menu had octopus as starter could not beleive how much we enjoyed it. We ordered specials one red snapper and the other a wild game stew both were excellent! Made for a great dinning expereince that will be remembered for a while or at least till we return.
Food was amazing!
My friend she was so enthused about the brisket wrap, I wound up ordering a portion to take home with me! And my next level organic coffee was so delicious, she ordered a container for the ride home. The waitress was so helpful & friendly, it made lunch a pleasure!
