This was my third time visiting, and once again, it did not disappoint. We recently attended one of their brunch events with live music, and it was such a great experience from start to finish.

The food was absolutely delicious, and the portion sizes were generous — definitely worth it. The hosts and waitstaff were incredibly attentive and welcoming, making sure everything flowed smoothly throughout the event.

The live entertainment truly elevated the entire brunch. The music kept everyone on their feet and created such a fun, vibrant atmosphere while we enjoyed amazing food and beautiful views. It was the perfect mix of great energy, great service, and great company.

I would absolutely return, especially if they continue hosting events like this. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t been yet — it’s a fantastic spot for brunch, celebrations, or just a lively outing with friends.

As a professional wedding and event photographer, I’m always on the lookout for venues that combine stunning aesthetics with seamless service—and Waterside delivered on all fronts. Nestled right on the Hudson River, its floor-to-ceiling windows and panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline create a picture-perfect backdrop that elevates every shot. The way natural light dances off the dance floors, gazebos, and lounge areas instantly draws me in.

The event spaces—particularly the River Room and Opal Ballroom—offer clean lines and modern elegance while remaining versatile enough for both intimate moments and grand celebrations. You can imagine how effortlessly these spaces frame a bride and groom, capturing the emotion and grandeur of their day.

Beyond the visual appeal, the team at Waterside brings that polished, white-glove experience that complements a photographer’s workflow. From valet and coat-check attendants to maître d’s and attentive staff, they ensure the day flows smoothly—which keeps you focusing on capturing the moment, not logistics.

And the food? Top-tier. Chef-trained in-house culinary excellence paired beautifully with the venue’s ambiance. Whether shooting during cocktail hour or documenting a plated dinner, guests are treated to dishes that look as good in photos as they taste.

In short: Waterside Restaurant & Catering is a dream venue for photographers—and for couples seeking a flawless, elevated event. Photos look amazing, service feels effortless, and the setting is genuinely unforgettable.

We came into town from Philadelphia for a nice peaceful dining experience with a view. This restaurant delivered. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. My water never went low. Our appetizers and main courses were very well done as well. We ordered the shrimp appetizer, Caesar Salad, Salmon and Chilean Sea Bass. 10/10. Atmosphere was so warm and welcoming. The playlist of music was so good I’m dying to know what platform they use I loved every song! If we lived closer we would come more often but I do believe when in the area we will return. Very well done!

We went to celebrate my daughters 16 birthday. It was 13 of us, we were not allowed to order appetizers without ordering our main meal at the same time which was weird to me. The food was so so, nothing to write home about, I had the Salmon and lobster Mac n cheese, both could have used some type of seasoning, I mean,I wasn’t expecting the Mac n cheese to have tons of lobster in it but I was expecting it to have some flavor. Most of my table (teens) ordered steak and all requested for the salt to be passed to them so that says a lot. The atmosphere and view is nice, it’s like a fancy bar/restaurant/nightclub all in one, just don’t go expecting top tier food.

What a beautiful location! I was there to attend the NEW JERSEY FASHION FEST CGMODELS. Very fancy. The event was amazing. The views of this restaurant are breathtaking. Floor to ceiling windows to enjoy the NEW YORK CITY SKYLINE! It has 3 floors. First floor to eat and dine. Great place to have and enjoy any event. The staff are very professional and pleasant. I didn’t get to order food but everyone loved their drinks and cocktails. There is also a good amount of parking. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

This is one of the best restaurants in NJ. The food is extraordinary but what sets it apart is the quality of the service. The staff is friendly and attentive. They make the experience of eating there unique. A plus, of course, is the magnificent view of Manhattan and the river.

Amazing view. Environment is not good for me because the air quality is bad. It has smoke smell from bar and artificial fragrance.
Service is good.
Chilean sea bass is good.
Lobster pasta is good.

We tried this restaurant for a friend’s birthday. We arrived later in the evening and we only ordered appetizers. The food and drinks were excellent. Also the staff were very helpful and friendly. They had a DJ and we got to dance enjoying the view so overall a very positive and upbeat experience.

Me and my husband after searching for other places to make our wedding special moment with family and friends! We had God Grace on finding this place, as soon we walk in I felt the atmosphere and i felt just what i was looking for. With the delicious smell that the restaurant had, the scents that the restaurant has is amazing and inviting. The spot is completely perfect for any event, me and my entire family have nothing but good comments about place. We loved every little moment, the food was delicious, the lights are confortable and the view is amazing. The team make you feel welcome as well. They let us decorate the place as we desired. Affordable prices, it’s so worthy that’ll recommend it to any body. It was a day night to remember. Thank you to the event coordinator Christian and the waiters.
