Heirloom at The St. Laurent

"Asbury Park has never been the same with the addition of the posh St. Laurent Social Club and their lovely Heirloom restaurant. Here, Chef David Viana of the award-winning Lita and Heirloom’s Kitchen serves an immaculate three-course, $89 prix fixe menu that includes the choice of campanelle (Jersey corn, summer truffle, and shrimp), Barnegat scallops, and chocolate beets." - Ernest Owens

"Located inside in Ashbury Park, this farm-to-table restaurant has a three-course, $89 prix fixe menu that includes the choice of tuna tostada, soft shell crab, and elderflower “sundae.” They even have vegan alternatives to every course on the prix fixe menu (that includes mushroom tamale and trumpet royale mushroom) as well." - Ernest Owens

"This boutique hotel offers lunch, a swanky cocktail bar, and a comely dining room for dinner with a New American tasting menu from chef and partner David Viana. During the day, reserve a chair at the pool and use the QR code for the poolside menu — a collection of sandwiches, salads, and snacks, as well as beachy drinks, bubbles, and spritzes. Or don a coverup for a proper meal in the dining room." - Celia Buckley, Melissa McCart

"In 2022, the boutique St. Laurent Hotel opened as an exciting new addition to town, and Heirloom Kitchen is its main attraction. The food is always quality, and it’s frankly the best dining experience in Asbury Park and the surrounding area: there’s a great wine list and a four-course menu that always feels special. The beautifully-designed space features a stylish and sexy lounge up-front where you should drink a cocktail (their beverage director worked for Miami’s Broken Shaker), and the dining room is bright with a view of the St. Laurent’s pool. The restaurant group also has two other locations: a part-time cooking school off Route 9 in Old Bridge, and a sister spot in Aberdeen called Lita." - michael sinatra
