"We celebrated our wedding anniversary at The Cave and had such an amazing time! The vibe there was super cool something we hadn’t experienced before and it really made the night special. The food was really good too, and we enjoyed everything. There was a small mixup with our order, but the staff fixed it quickly, which was nice. Overall, it was a great experience and a night to remember. So glad we chose The Cave for our celebration!"

"An Edgewater staple- romantic and magical atmosphere- while the menu could stand to be updated- the portions are substantial , there are plenty of vegetarian options, it’s fresh and does the job. Great for desserts and drinks and noshes. A perfect place for an intimate experience with friends, loved ones or for getting to know someone. BYOB. I brought my daughter here for her 9th birthday and the staff went above and beyond! Specifically our server Faith who was super kind, attentive and communicative. The service was prompt and the food came out quickly!"

"For my birthday, I decided to celebrate at The Cave Restaurant in Edgewater, NJ, and let me tell you it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the aesthetic and ambiance were everything. The candlelight on each table, the cave-inspired walls, and the beautiful sculptures and wall art all created such a relaxing, romantic vibe. The atmosphere was classy but cozy, perfect for date nights or special occasions. For drinks, I ordered the Wild Berry Lemonade and my boyfriend went with the Baja Blast. That lemonade was so good I had to get a second one! For our appetizer, we tried the cheesy nachos super flavorful, warm, and crispy. For entrées, he got the House Burger (served with chips and coleslaw), and I went with the Cilantro Chicken Quesadilla with sour cream and salsa on the side. When I say that quesadilla was packed with flavor… whew, a 10/10! And that coleslaw? I’m not even a coleslaw person, but theirs changed my whole mind it was that good. The portion sizes were generous, so I even had leftovers to take home. The service was just as amazing as the food. Our server was friendly, attentive, and checked in on us multiple times. The restaurant offers complimentary valet parking, which was a nice bonus, and the location itself is perfect surrounded by other restaurants and a great overall vibe. As a TikTok Foodie content creator (@TaliyaBBeauty) I have to say this is easily one of my top dining experiences in New Jersey so far. The Cave is beautiful, affordable, and worth every penny our total was only about $70 for two entrées, an appetizer, and multiple drinks. Highly recommend for birthdays, date nights, or any celebration."
