Wow, 11 years since my last review, yet the food is still as wonderful as I remember.
Came here with former work friends for lunch like we used to do although this time my wife came along. We have been here a time or 2 since my last review, so my wife loves Cafe Panache as much as I do.
2 warm goat cheese / beet salad, Salmon Tartare w/avocado/seaweed Salad and a Warm mushroom salad with arugula & parmesan were the appetizers we had.
My wife had the Filet mignon ravioli / parmesan reggiano and Bordelaise sauce while I had the calves liver with, port wine and raisins. Normally I wouldn’t order liver, but this being Cafe Panache, I knew it could only be good and it was. Not like Mom used to make where she would cook the liver for hours… or so it seemed.
Our friends had the Halibut special and the Garlic shrimp salad, avocado / Chipotle.
Still one of my favorite Jersey restaurants… and a BYOB! Salad, Avocado, Chipotle

I visited this local favorite for the first time and was impressed by the excellent food and the seamless service. The meal flowed perfectly without ever feeling rushed or neglected. The desserts were great and homemade, a perfect finale to the evening. BYOB is the icing on the cake, making this an incredible value for such a high-quality dining experience.

If you were a vegan, do not ever try to go here. I had to go here for a winter dinner with Work. It was probably the worst meal I have ever had. It’s not that hard to make a vegan meal if you actually have ingredients other than freaking meat and cheese. They served me boiled vegetables on a plate with some rice. A very lame attempt at food. I emailed a month in advance to see if they could accommodate Because their menu doesn’t accommodate vegans. The email rep reply said that they could. they don’t. I’m only lucky that I didn’t have to pay for my meal, but my employer is did.
Don’t bother if you are looking for a plant based meal.

Been coming to Cafe Panache for many years but haven’t come much in the last few years. I’ve now been here 4 times in the last 2 months. Let’s start with the food, Top Notch, I’ve eaten all different menu items during my visits and all have been exceptional. You can see and taste the love put into to the dishes. Service has also been amazing, Some servers who have been there a long time who don’t forget you and we had a new Server last night Melissa who was attentive and engaging every step of the way. I highly Recommend this place. Kevin would be Proud

This place is amazing.
I love how the menu changes so most of the time you have something new.
The Warm Mushroom Salad comes with arugula, Parmesan, mushrooms, and a vinaigrette which all together makes the dish exquisite and delicious. The food here overall is superb
The waiters are super nice and will exceed your expectations.
The dimmed lights puts a nice touch on the phenomenal service.
Definitely coming back, and you should come too.

We recently hosted my daughter’s bridal shower at Cafe Panache, and everything exceeded our expectations. The staff was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, making what could have been a stressful event feel seamless and enjoyable.
The food was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests are still raving about it! The service was amazing, and a special thank you to Javi, who went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made all the difference.
We couldn’t have asked for a better venue to celebrate such a special occasion. Highly recommend Cafe Panache for any event or just a great dining experience!

Went over the weekend and the food is more delicious every time. You will need reservations it s always packed. We have been going there from day one. We miss Kevin but Kevin must be happy in heaven that his legacy lives on.

After arriving back home from a quite a long journey, it was a pleasure to have a wonderful meal. The ravioli was fire. I forgot the place was bringing your own booze so I had to go to the liquor store. Just passed the train tracks and get myself a bottle. The short ribs from my entrée was amazing. Absolutely fabulous. My eyes were bigger than my stomach today and did not have time or room for dessert disappointing but I will definitely be back wonderful atmosphere fabulous service. It’s a pleasure thank you very much.

If you are looking for a private dinner for two or a private event for your friends and family Cafe Panache is the place . I had an absolute pleasure celebrating my birthday event and what a wonderful celebration it was. From the spectacular 7 course tasting me to a most amazing and accommodating staff. Thank you dear Kristie, Mike, Javier and the entire Panache family for making my special day for extra special! I am super excited to be part of your family!
