Picnic On The Square

My girlfriend and I came here for New Year's Eve 2015. The menu was prefixed three course that included lobster bisque, gnocchi, seafood a la picnic, duck, lamb chop, and flour less chocolate cake to name a few.

The lobster bisque was rich and extremely tasty. Our entrees were very good and well portioned. The chocolate cake was also delicious!

The only drawback of the restaurant was the seating. The placement of our seats was next to the bathroom and also near the waiters table. This created a distraction and took away from our enjoyment of the ambiance.

Picnic on the Square has added a nice new dimension to the Ridgewood dining scene. Christine Nunn has brought her amazing culinary exploits to town, and I'm thrilled to be able to enjoy it. We had a variety of amazing dishes on our different visits including the butter poached lobster roll, seared fois gras and pork belly - wimsically termed "liver and onions," veal pot roast, scallops over saffron risotto, and the list goes onward.

The restaurant is small and intimate, and the service very attentive. It's BYO, so bring yourself a special bottle to match the great cuisine.

Christine Nunn even came out and visited our table to make sure everything was wonderful with our meal. We'll be coming back many times, as the restaurant is now part of our repetoire!
