Restaurant Review
Note: The Raven and The Peach is temporarily closed until end of January 2021 while they remodel their dining room.
The Raven and the Peach is an upscale, special occasion restaurant, a popular spot for romantic occasions, birthday parties, and entertaining business clients.
Prior to the remodeling, the ambiance/decor has been upscale with ceiling fans, dark woods, potted plants, much like "Casablanca", in a comfortable, cozy setting. It is custom-made chairs and tables sit at reasonable intervals for an intimate dining experience.
The kitchen is run by Executive Chef Megan LaManna. Chef LaManna received her formal culinary education at the Asbury Park Culinary School.
Prior to coming to the Raven and the Peach, she was the executive chef of B2 Bistro, in Point Pleasant Beach.
On Friday and Saturday evenings, the Raven and the Peach has live entertainment by a piano player, and a vocalist in the bar area with a touch of old school supper club vibe
Open 7 days/week. Valet Parking is available
