Union Park Dining Room<br />
Elegant ambience, great food and a spectacular beachfront setting... this is romance personified<br />
WHERE IS IT? In the lovely, historic Hotel<br />
Macomber (see Accommodations), at the corner<br />
of Beach and Howard.<br />
WHY SHOULD I GO? Union Park has been a<br />
mainstay on NJ.com’s Most Romantic list, and<br />
you’ll realize why from the moment you are seated<br />
at your candlelit table. Perhaps you will have an<br />
ocean view, or be treated to a cozy spot in front<br />
of the fireplace.<br />
Wherever you dine at Union Park, you will<br />
enjoy service that’s unobtrusive, but attentive<br />
enough to make you feel as though you’re the only<br />
customers in the room.<br />
And the food? Union Park is rightly famous<br />
for the South African Lobster Tail, while Colorado<br />
Lamb is another favorite.<br />
Union Park is available for both casual and<br />
elegant parties, receptions, special occasion<br />
dinners and complete weddings. Their facility<br />
can host groups up to 125 people, depending on<br />
the type of reception you desire. Book the entire<br />
restaurant, for the ultimate beach wedding, or<br />
just one of their three private rooms available for<br />
groups of eight to 45 guests. It’s BYOB, though<br />
local wine is available.<br />
INSIDER TIP In season, Union Park has outdoor<br />
seating, with great views of the beach and<br />
promenade.<br />
