Out of all the city-view restaurants we've tried around Edgewater, Haven easily stands out as the best overall experience. The setting is hard to beat-- the skyline views create a beautiful backdrop that really elevates the entire meal especially at night. The food isn't flawless across the board, but its definitely good. With some standout highlights. If you like oysters, the Kumamotos are a must-- buttery, rich and incredibly fresh. And the petit filet mignon is executed to perfection, cooked exactly right and full of flavor. Overall, great atmosphere, efficient service, strong key dishes, and one of the best waterfront dining experiences in the area. read more

Waterfront restaurant. It was OK. The service is great, the menu is OK. We went for restaurant week and that was a wonderful way to try many dishes. We decided to stop by the bar for happy hour on the way out. I preferred that menu. Maria was our waitress by the bar and was great. If I read in the area I would return, but I wouldn't make the trip otherwise. read more

I love the ambiance at Haven. The view is great, especially during night time. The hostess is always friendly. I've had good service here every time, Calum and David were great! Sorry I can't remember all the other servers' names. The food is superb as well. If you're a fan of oysters, go for the kumamotos. They are so buttery and creamy, a guaranteed orgasm in your mouth. The bakkafrost salmon is perfect, their filet mignon was also cooked to perfection. If you're going for brunch, the spicy crispy chicken sandwich was hella good. Hopefully they switch up their menu from time to time, I go there so often read more

Haven is one of my favorite restaurants and bars in Edgewater, NJ. Their lounge area is nice and welcoming - I recommend their happy hour including mocktails and cocktails! Also their restaurant area is beautiful with a NYC skyline view and amazing food and service! Today, we went there for date night and had again Alejandro taking best care of us! He made our evening out tonight special! We should have taken more pictures of the delicious and beautifully arranged dishes. read more

I had a lovely birthday lunch, sitting on Haven's covered outdoor patio. It has the perfect ambiance, and the view of NYC is beautiful. The braised short ribs were fork-tender and delicious! The burger was a sizable portion and served with perfectly cooked fries. In addition to a variety of cocktails, beer, and wine, they offer thoughtfully crafted mocktails. The indoor dining room is also very classy, but I was most impressed with the cloth hand towels and hand lotion in their restroom. For outdoor seating, I would recommend making a reservation. Several people who arrived without one were unable to sit on the patio. read more

The place is next to a walking route by the Hudson River so after or before your meal you can stroll by there and enjoy the view of NYC as well as the water. I ordered the salmon without everything they add only mushrooms and by far the best cooked salmon I've ever had; I'm 44 so I've had plenty. My friend ordered the duck and had the rest of what she didn't eat the next day for leftovers; she enjoyed it too. We were both happy with the quality of the food. The service was great. We didn't wait too long for waiters to be around for anything we might of needed. We were both happy with that too. If I have to say anything bad at all is that in the bathroom it would be a good idea to have something to dry our hands with. I saw towels but nowhere to place them once we use them. They have a no smoking policy for the outdoor seating area which is great for people allergic to smoke. Valet parking is $10 as of this review. They also have garage parking. Overall 5 stars. Excellent place to go and enjoy good food in an interesting environment. Thank you. read more

excellent service with a wonderful view! all the apps and the short rib entree were delicious! will definitely repeat in the future!

Came to Haven for a late lunch and had such a great experience! The service was impressively quick especially considering the kitchen closes at 3pm--and our waiter, Thanos, was an absolute delight. Friendly, attentive, and made the whole visit even better. Drink: Espresso Martini - rich, smooth, and just the right kick. Food: * Shrimp Tempura Crispy Rice Bites - My absolute favorite. Perfect texture and flavor. So delicious! * Truffle Mac N' Cheese - Creamy, rich, and full of that deep truffle flavor. A comfort food dream. * Yellowfin Ahi Tuna Tacos - Fresh and beautifully presented. My second favorite. * Pan Seared Sea Scallops - Cooked well, though the bacon definitely took center stage flavor-wise. Overall, the meal was flavorful, well-paced, and the vibe was relaxed but elevated. Definitely recommend for a lunch date or catching up with friends over great food and drinks. I'll be back! read more

I recently hosted my bridal shower here and from the moment I reached out to book the location all the way through breakdown of decor, they were amazing. Fiona assisted me on the booking side of things, ensuring we put together the best brunch option for my guests. The day of we had plenty of time to be able to set up and decorate the private dining area. Our servers were helpful, friendly, and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their meals and many commented on the beautiful space and location. Huge thank you to all of the Haven staff for ensuring we had a wonderful event! read more

Fidel and his team made tonight's dinner unforgettable!! Haven is located in a corner area of Edgewater with breathtaking views of NYC. When you arrive, they have $10 valet- super convenient since it's in an area with barely any parking. The restaurant is beautiful and has a great vibe, they played some of my favorite songs but in the instrumental version and it was lovely. I originally requested a seat with a view, since we were joined by out of towners from Toronto. They did a decent job at accommodating my request, especially since the restaurant was busy. For appetizers we tried the oyster sampler and it was fresh and delicious. We also got the octopus, which was cooked perfectly (a pet peeve of mine) and came with a nice mixed salad. I ordered the lobster pasta, which could've used some more seasoning, but still good nonetheless. My date got the ribeye, which he raved about. He also added the loaded mashed as a side and enjoyed it. Our out of town guest went with the branzino and side of lobster Mac and cheese, which she took home for lunch the next day. For dessert we tried the crème brûlée and paired it with espressos for half the table. A very fresh dessert and not too sweet of a bite. I tried the espresso martini, which wasn't my favorite but I still finished it lol A bottle of white wine, four cocktails (including the espresso), two appetizers, four meals, and two sides ran us a little over $500 without tip. If you're looking for exceptional service, beautiful vibe/views, and decent food with a little cash to spend- get dressed up nicely and check out Haven :) read more

3.5 stars HAVEN had been holding a special place in my "must try" list, sat aside for an important occasion or celebration. It was such a fancy, stunning place worthy of only such an event. However, since the weather was going to be absolutely perfect for an outdoor dinner, I recently wound up enjoying a regular evening there with great friends. When we arrived, we noticed that there were options to either utilize the valet or to find a spot in the crowded parking lot. We had taken a rideshare service, but that was a good note to keep in mind for future visits. We stepped inside and immediately encountered the host stand, with an upscale bar and lounge to one side and a sprawling dining room with views of the Hudson River to the other side. Just beyond the indoor dining area was an outdoor patio, which was what I had reserved. It should be noted that if you reserve "outdoor" seating, you will be on the restaurant-level, covered patio; however, they also had a few tables that were several steps down and directly on the river walkway, which were uncovered and used for walk-ins. Our table was spacious, quiet, and offered incredible views. We ordered some cocktails, and I started with the Forbidden Garden; I had expected the mix of Cazadores Blanco Tequila, muddled mint, fresh lime juice, kiwi ginger syrup, and club soda to be like a refreshing mojito. Unfortunately, there was way too much syrup included, so the drink was incredibly sweet. I also only really tasted the kiwi. I heard that the Atypical Pornstar and Mango Fire & Smoke beverages were similarly sugar-laden, but HAVEN's house Old Fashioned received rave reviews. After hearing these comments, I decided to transition to wine for my second round. I asked our server for the wine-by-the-glass list, which was not in the same book with the beers and cocktails. Instead of running back inside to grab it, he just asked what type of wine I was looking for. I found that a bit strange, especially for someone like myself that preferred to see which regions and wineries were sourcing the varietals, but I just went along with his laziness and requested a prosecco. The flute of Valdo Prosecco from Veneto, Italy was much more enjoyable and well-balanced than my former cocktail. It was the perfect crisp, refreshing sip I had been craving for the warm evening. I did notice when I later looked at the website menu that they also had rosé cava, Moscato, and brut as sparkling options that I had been unaware of thanks to the server. Since I enjoyed the prosecco and the staff otherwise, it was not a big deal, but seems worth mentioning. While we got acquainted with our booze, a front-of-house member came by and offered us each a slice of bread, which was essentially a small piece of challah that had been toasted. The great things about that type of bread are its sweetness and its softness, but those slices were just dry. We skipped appetizers, and I selected the Char-Grill Branzino as my entrée. The two large filets were a bit overcooked and really needed some salt and other seasoning. The fish was plated with an unseasonal chayote squash and parsnip slaw, as well as a parsnip puree and a citrus hazelnut gremolata. I found it odd that those fall/winter ingredients were being used as near summer accoutrements. I was also surprised that the parsnip items were so bland that I did not pick up on the signature taste of that root vegetable, which I loved, but could be an acquired taste for others. Baby bok choy was also included, but one of my bites of the crisp greens included something grainy and crunchy, which was disturbing. It was potentially a piece of the hazelnut in the pesto, but was disconcerting at the time. Lastly, pickled pearl onions were sprinkled over the dish to add some acidity. While I felt marginally satisfied with my main course, I heard great things about the Wood-Grilled, 14-ounce New York Strip Steak and the Natural Sea Salt French Fries. I happened to grab a few of those fried potatoes and really enjoyed them. Plus, those were at least salted. We were rather full after the meal, but decided to order dessert. I sampled the Warm Brioche Bread Pudding, which was incredible! However, I did not see any connection between the dish I enjoyed and the description on the menu, which referenced "vanilla gelato, melted Valrhona chocolate, banana, braised apple, compressed cranberry, Kentucky bourbon sauce". What I tasted basically appeared to be a cinnamon coffee cake with a ribbon of cinnamon inside it and a generous amount of crunchy crumb on top of it. The cake was served in a bowl with some of the best vanilla gelato I had ever had and a custard-like sauce. So, yeah, it did not match my expectation, but it was heavenly! HAVEN's modern culinary creativity and stunning views made for a nice evening. However, I felt that there were some execution issues that could have been improved. read more

During my visit on March 31 for a 7:00 PM reservation, the view of the NYC skyline was exceptional and enhanced the overall ambiance. The hostess was welcoming, the menu offered great options, and the food was well seasoned and very good. However, I do have a significant concern regarding our waiter's behavior. Throughout our two-hour visit, he repeatedly ran his fingers through his hair directly in front of guests. I personally observed this at least seven times. This behavior is unsanitary and inappropriate, particularly in a food service environment, and should not occur while serving customers. I hope management addresses and corrects this issue promptly, as it detracts from an otherwise excellent dining experience. For this reason I cannot provide a higher rating. read more

Food is delicious and thoughtfully prepared, service is just the right amount of attentive, and the view is wonderful! We go for weekday lunches when it's not too crowded and have enjoyed it every time. read more

We decided to have brunch to celebrate my anniversary and opted to go to Haven, as I work nearby and had heard great things about the views. The views didn't disappoint! Beautiful view of the city over the Hudson. We ordered the Mexican Spring Rolls, French omelette and blueberry pancakes. The spring rolls came out cold, but we were ravenous so we ate them anyway. My wife's eggs were good and my pancakes were delicious. Skip the coffee, it's quite bitter. Also, parking is $10 unless you find your own spot. It took me 5 seconds and 150' to park my car and enter Haven. The choice is yours. read more

Very good! Overall, we really enjoyed our experience at Haven! Everything we had from our appetizers to our mains was all quite good and service was great as well. We were seated outside and the views are absolutely stunning and truly add to the ambience of the restaurant.

Went here for brunch on a Saturday and it was absolutely perfect sitting outside looking at the view. The ambience makes the whole experience. We had a few different drinks and all were tasty, iced latte was great as well! The food was really yummy as well I would say overall the appetizers were better than entrées. Rock shrimp was fantastic- 10/10! The lobster risotto balls were also yummy but didn't get too much lobster. For the entrees, portions were generous and we each enjoyed the different food. We also appreciated that the menu included brunch and more lunch style food. Service was friendly and helpful. Would like to return for dinner at some point, great option in the area especially if you enjoy outdoor seating. read more

We came here for a birthday, and had a pretty good experience overall. As we entered, we were greeted early for our reservation and offered space in the lounge to spend the last hour of happy hour. For small bites, we had truffle fries and spicy tuna/crispy rice bites--both quite good. After making our way to our table, we ordered an assortment of oysters, all with great flavor and texture quality with flavorful mignonettes--including what tasted like a yuzu-pineapple combination that added another dimension to the flavor of the oysters. After these, we got our entrees: kids' chicken and tenders, seafood risotto and roasted lamb shank. In my opinion, the latter most was the best of the bunch, with earthy, rich flavors and fantastic texture. The chicken tenders and fries were good--standard, but good--and the seafood risotto was fairly underwhelming. It appeared more akin to a black rice with broth rather than a true risotto, which was fairly disappointing. That's what really gives it a "three-star" position in my mind, in spite of the great lamb shank. The service and ambiance were very serviceable as well. Overall, the experience was pretty good--ultimately, however, multiple aspects served to cancel out many of the good details present. read more

Originally came here for Happy Hour (not pictured) but did NOT disappoint! It was very well priced and the portions were great! Ended up staying for dinner and got the New Strip was was VERY pleased at the cut of the meat and the temp on it as well. For a side, I got the Maine Lobster Mashed Potatoes and while that wasn't my favorite thing I'd still rate it at about a 7 (and honestly might order it again in the future lol). Not really a dessert girly but since I loved just about everything else I had that night I felt like treating myself some more to the Churro Cobbler and that didn't disappoint either. A littler on the sweeter side but I still really enjoyed! 10/10 recommend here based on Happy Hour, Dinner, Dinning experience, and drinks! I'll for sure will be back! read more

Went for Sunday brunch with my fiancée. We started with half a dozen oysters, Atlantic and pacific. They were fresh and of good quality. I had the pulled pork Benedict and he had the American breakfast plate. Both dishes were delicious and it was very filling. My Bloody Mary was not the best so I got a mimosa for my second drink. The brunch set is worth it. We didn't get to sit outside but got a nice seat facing the view. Make sure to make reservations because it's a popular spot for weekend brunch. Service was good and the staff were friendly. This is definitely one of the better brunch spots in the area. read more

This restaurant was on my 'go-to' list for a while, and it was worth the wait. We made reservations for a Sunday dinner. Although it was a little cold/breezy outside, I really like the option of outdoor seating directly next to HEATED LAMPS. Their outdoor patio is spacious and tranquil right next to the Hudson river. That is likely the only way you'd convince me to eat outdoors intentionally. I noticed that's a trend at some restaurants in the area, near the water (Son Cubano has this option as well, for example). However, we still opted to dine inside with a gorgeous view (to our right) of the Hudson & NYC across the water. Quick tip - parking near the restaurant is scarce so... good luck! Small fun fact about me - I purposely look for two specific items on any menu, especially if it's an upscale-ish restaurant. Octopus and/or Duck. Majority of the time, I browse the menu before going to any food establishment. So, needless to say, I had high hopes and expectations for the octopus AND duck here. I had the charred octopus (tentacles) as an appetizer and roasted duck for my entree. Both were divine! The portion versus the price for the octopus left a lot to be desired. But, it was delicious!! Duck is my favorite poultry and they did an amazing job at Haven. My palate was pleased with every bite. My friend ordered the arancini balls as an appetizer and the grilled branzino as an entree. I sampled both - the arancini was underwhelming, but that was to be expected because I have never enjoyed that anywhere I've gone. The branzino, o.m.g. - chef's kiss! I would absolutely order that for myself on the next visit. Everything from food to ambiance/atmosphere was beautiful and delightful. The service was good, too. Our server checked on us enough to know he was around, but not overbearing! read more
