Had our daughter’s shower at Manera’s restaurant, Brick, NJ location, December 6, 2025. 53 adults 2 children. We booked the main area with Anthony months in advance. He was professional, friendly and helpful! Tiffany was my text/email contact before and after the event. She was a huge asset to making our function run beautifully! Tiffany made sure all the details were specifically arranged and executed perfectly for our party. She answered all my concerns and had the tables set up early for us. I even asked if the room could be decorated sooner, since we had a Christmas theme. Wow did she deliver! Upon entering there was a fireplace, multiple Christmas trees, a pretty wreath and lights which added to the gorgeous ambiance that welcomed our guests. The food was delicious, hot and served on time. There was something for everyone’s taste. We had a luncheon buffet, which we chose the chicken cutlet parmigiana, herb encrusted salmon, penne a la vodka, roasted potatoes, house salad, Caesar salad, various vegetables, and top notch coffee. There are so many other choices and things to add on, that I recommend you viewing their private events page for details. Everything was reasonably priced and worth every penny.
Our friends and family are still raving many days after about the food, decor, terrific staff, and wonderful time they had at our event. Dixon our waiter, went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of in a timely manner with smiles and positivity. Grace our waitress, was polite, kind and sweet to all our guests as well. Together they made a great team. The restaurant has an amazing chef that truly knows the way to people’s hearts is through their stomachs. Manera’s is very clean and inviting across the board. There is tons of ample parking and close to various main roads and the parkway. Once again, Anthony was of great assistance, (as I left a few things behind,) which he held onto for me upon my return. Anthony runs this location with much pride, checks on his guests as well as staff and is a true leader. We definitely will be back dining here as well as many of our friends and family.
