I am still in awe and completely blown away by the service, ambiance, an overall experience at the Highlawn Pavilion. I recently hosted my engagement dinner there for 65 people and everything completely exceeded my expectations. The food was well seasoned and aesthetically pleasing from the appetizers to the main course, and the service was top notch. I have to highlight the work of the team Jeff, Tammy, Alyson, Will and every single person who helped that night. The night was magical and amazing- they even held the rain back for us to enjoy a beautiful sunset. I give this place 5 stars for service, food and overall experience. Thank you again to Jeff, Tammy and the whole team for an unforgettable experience

The Highlawn is definitely worth experiencing at least once in your life. I know for many people on a budget (our family included) spending over $110 per person for dinner may seem over indulgent, but I think for a special occasion, it’s justifiable. Every single thing we ate and drank was of phenomenal taste and quality, the service was attentive and professional, it really is a top notch dining experience. My husband remarked that the smoked old fashion he had was on his list of top 3 favorite old fashions he has ever had! The Chilean sea bass is the absolute best sea bass I’ve ever had! We have a ton of outstanding restaurants and dining options available to us in the NYC metro area, and the Highlawn really does hold its own as one of the best.

We had wedding ceremony and dinner reception at Highlawn in summer of 2023 – amazing experience! The wedding zone looks beautiful with nice view of Manhattan Skyline. The dinner was organized well by the service team led by Tammy and Alondra who were both helpful and highly-efficient to serve food, communicate with our wedding party, and facilitate the setup of the dinner area. The dinner buffet had great quality, especially the delicious steak and Sashimi.

We drove up from South Jersey to spend our anniversary at Highlawn. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a smile. The view from the dinning area was stunning. Our waiter Arthur was excellent and the rest of the team was also on point. There was one gentleman that came to our table to wish us a happy anniversary he was a joy to speak with and a great addition to our experience. They also kindly helped us celebrate our anniversary with some fireworks in ice cream and some complimentary coffee and desert. Then after all this we enjoyed a short walk looking at the NY skyline.
