Absolutely our favorite restaurant, never once have we had a bad meal and the service is amazing! Nick has been our waiter the last couple of visits and every time we see him it is like seeing an old friend! The new menu additions this season are must have! Our favorite part of summer is our dinners at Cafe Loren!

Year after year, visit after visit Cafe Loren never disappoints. Food is superb -- house salad, Ceasar salad and oh my gosh, the pistachio- crusted goat cheese & beets! Went twice in the past four days during restaurant week...BBQ pork chop, chicken, salmon...all excellent 👍. If there was a picture in the food dictionary of pan-seared scallops, it would be the ones prepared here. Food is so beautifully plated you really do have a visual feast before you ever take a bite. Desserts=yum! Staff, to a person, are outstanding--professional, friendly, go out of their way to accommodate you. Definitely five stars, would give more if I could!
Another year, another visit and NO change! Food is excellent, superb, beautifully plated. Staff is outstanding. Wow.
New year, same comments. A 10 star restaurant in every level.
Wish I could say that things have deteriorated so people would stop going but that would be a straight -up lie. Cafe Loren - food, staff, plating - is incomparable. Truly excellent in every way, every visit. Look forward each year to as many visits as possible.
Great service, superb food, ceaser salad one best I've had, duck breast, veal dishes were done perfectly.
Our servers were right on mark, it was great evening, they have nice outdoor seating area.
Had a great evening!
Cozy, upscale restaurant with a larger footprint than it seems from the front. Fully enjoyed the Jersey Salad, Loren Steak (fillet), and Blueberry Cobbler. Service was prompt and food was excellent. A+
Food was outstanding. Server was nice but forgot to put an app. in. Overall a nice quiet place for dinner except for the 2 tables right by the kitchen entrance. Hearing the dishwasher working wasn’t all that quiet but would go back.
An excellent spot to dine! Delicious American fare, lots of choices, pleasant servers and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere! A classy places to dine at the Jersey shore. ❤️
Fantastic meal and service last night! We started with a Spicy Gazpacho, followed by Chargrilled Octopus and Seared Sea Scallops, and then for the main course we had Veal Loren, Braised Short Ribs, and a NY Strip Steak special. Everything was perfectly prepared, and the service was very attentive; we even had some modifications from the kitchen for food allergies. We will definitely be returning soon!
I can’t believe I haven’t written a review of this place yet! My wife and I favorite restaurant in the world by far, from the staff to the ambience to the food, complete home run! When we get a chance to go here, it doesn’t matter the time, we go! 445 or 9:15…. We’ll be there!
I took my mom here for her birthday while we were staying in Avalon. We both had great meals. I had the best- and largest!- scallops of my lifetime (and I've eaten many). I'd go back just for the scallops! Our entrees were delicious, seasoned well, and cooked correctly. I can't say enough about this little gem. Simply try it yourself, and you will not regret it!!!
This is THE place to go in Avalon for a special meal. Romantic, delicious food, byob. We go Every time we are in Avalon! A MUST!
