New American dishes in a Victorian house with a bustling downstairs & quieter upstairs. BYOB.

We dined at Matt’s Red Rooster in Flemington on Saturday and had the pleasure of sitting at the chef’s table—what an unbelievable experience! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The food was absolutely outstanding—each dish was crafted with incredible flavor and attention to detail. The service was just as impressive—warm, professional, and perfectly timed without ever feeling rushed. The atmosphere was cozy yet vibrant, creating the perfect setting for such a special meal.
Highly recommend it for anyone looking great food, amazing service, and a memorable evening.

Fantastic! I hadn’t been here in a while, but it was just as wonderful as I remembered. The menu selection is wonderful and the hardest part is deciding what to get. The service is always A+ and very friendly and attentive. I would definitely suggest making reservations, as they do get busy. Perfection from start to finish.

Matt’s Red Rooster Grill is an absolute gem! From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. The sous vide pork belly appetizer was perfectly prepared—rich, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. For my main course, I had the chicken paillard, which was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented.
The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and truly special—perfect for both a night out with friends or a more intimate dinner. On top of that, the staff was lovely—attentive, friendly, and made the evening feel seamless.
Highly recommend Matt’s Red Rooster Grill to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience. I can’t wait to come back!

This was the first time my family visited Matt’s. It was a birthday celebration. Our server was Maritza. She was absolutely wonderful. She was both friendly & professional, offering to take as many pictures as we wanted. The food was scrumptious. We tried the 4-course Summer Special menu and it did not disappoint. Each dish was just as good as the one before, especially the addicting Corn Bread Pudding. What a wonderful experience. We will certainly be back and definitely looking forward to it.

We loved it!! We were a party of 4 on Saturday night and absolutely loved the food and service. The deviled eggs and calamari – delicious…. the scallop risotto, crab stuffed fluke, short ribs and hanger steak were outstanding… desert was blueberry amaretto mascarpone – ridiculously good! Our server, Alex (female) was also outstanding and happily answered all our specific meal questions – loved her. We will ask for her on our future visits.

So glad we found this diamond in the rough during our first visit to Flemington. We started by sharing the fantadtic grilled romaine. Then my wife really enjoyed the wagyu flatiron steak special, and I the cherry cola short ribs. And something told me that we should save room for dessert – and so glad we did! The main floor seating (there’s also second floor seating) was small and comfortable, with the kitchen in view toward the back. And all of the staff were very friendly and professional, especially our server David. It’s BYOB, so don’t forget your favorite bottle to bring along. Definitely recommend this place!

Last night we had the Bistro special at Matt’s. The oysters and shrimp cocktail were superb! Pea soup and grilled romaine salad were spectacular. The California burgers were excellent; a nice taste of summer in the middle of January. We finished it off (although we were full) with an awesome brownie ala mode. The service was fantastic and Cindy was terrific. Highly recommend!

Matt’s Red Rooster is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth and professionalism from the incredible servers. Dan, in particular, always exceeds expectations with his impeccable service. The farm-to-table concept truly shines here, with each dish bursting with freshness and flavor. Whether it’s seafood or steak, every bite is cooked to perfection. And their bread pudding is always so unique but delicious. We also love their unique grilled romaine salad. I appreciate how they adapt their menus with the seasons, ensuring a fresh culinary experience every visit. Matt’s Red Rooster has quickly become our go-to spot, and we’ve never been disappointed. Highly recommend!

I love this place….hands-down one of my favorite restaurants. Everything on the menu is exceptional and it’s not just your boring old “steak, potatoes, and salad” menu you find way too often in nice restaurants. They have elevated takes on those things but with an expansive variety of other interesting options. Everyone in the staff is great, but we’ve had Dan as our server for multiple visits over the past 6 months and he is awesome! My normal reviews cover more detail than this, including menu details, but I’m writing this unprepared since I just wanted to get the rating out there for a phenomenal independent restaurant.
