Seasoned and Always Fresh

As pioneers of contemporary American cuisine in New Jersey, the owners of The Frog and The Peach had a simple concept – to offer diners consistently inspired food, attentive service and a wine list of diversity and value – that has remained the guiding principle of this progressive, American fine dining restaurant for the past 25 years. "Still Peachy on it's Silver Jublee."

The Frog and The Peach has consistently received accolades throughout its history, most recently a three and a half star review in New Jersey Monthly Magazine as well “Critic’s Choice for Top 25". Our guests also agree, awarding the restaurant a 26 rating for food and a 24 rating for service in the most recent Zagat Survey, and voting The Frog and the Peach for Best of The Best, Best Upscale Dining, Best American, Best Lunch, and Most Romantic in the 2008 New Jersey Monthly’s Readers Poll.

accolade.gifHusband and wife team Betsy Alger and Jim Black founded The Frog and The Peach restaurant in 1983 with a dual mission: to elevate contemporary fine dining in New Jersey and to be part of a successful renaissance of downtown New Brunswick. Over the past 25 years, the pair’s creative sensibilities and flair for reinvention have kept the restaurant feeling fresh and always on the cutting edge of local and national trends. In fact, in 2007 The Frog and The Peach was among the first restaurants in the country to install solar energy panels, allowing 25 percent of the electricity used in the restaurant to be generated from the sun.

The Frog and The Peach occupies a historic industrial building, lovingly renovated to create a multi-level upscale American bistro with a design nearly as inventive as its menu. An invitingly stylish cocktail and wine bar, dramatic outdoor dining and personal services for your private parties and corporate event planning are among the restaurant’s added highlights.
