Wow wow wow I only have so many ways to say phenomenal! The steak was soft and absolutely delicious, the table top cooking on the salt block was a very unique experience. We had the trio to be able to taste the chefs sauces of the day, each of them was fantastic. Our little charcuterie board had cheese I will dream about. The staff were all very kind and attentive. The house made Limonchello was delightful. We finished the night with cheesecake and fresh, warm white chocolate macadamia cookies with sea salt, omggg so delicious. Please go. Everything **Culinary masterpieces** Try it, be adventurous you absolutely won't be disappointed

Stage Left & Catherine Lombardi are both top notch. The food is amazing and the service is outstanding. They go above and beyond. From the owners visiting every table to the attention to detail by every one of their staff members. They will always be our “go to” for special occasions and any time our budget allows.

So good that we had our wedding here!! The service, food and ambiance has always been top notch, so instead of planning a complicated wedding with lots of moving parts including food vendors coming to us, we decided to cut out all the extra steps and have it at a restaurant. They were so wonderful and accommodating, especially Julie (their event person). Their wonderful help and kindness took so much stress out of my big day and everything went off without a hitch. So incredibly thankful for everything they did for us!

Dined at Stage Left last night for the 1st time, although have dined at Catherine Lombardi's numerous times (special occasions, mostly) Went specifically for the Miracle Bar (1st time) AND to have dinner with friends to kick-off the Christmas season. The Christmas-themed drinks were great. The soup of the day was Butternut Squash and was OUTSTANDING. Marc and Francis were present and actively ensuring our Miracle Bar and Dinner experience was the level of service and quality that we anticipated. Their personal involvement in us was greatly appreciated.

I live roughly a seven and a half hour one way drive from the restaurant. So I only visit three times a year. The experence is always one that brings me joy. The staff, menu, cocktails and wine list reflect the love of food and hospitality that the owners have brought to New Brunswick for over 30 years. Real passion and joy for serving others can not be faked. Check out the pod cast "the restaurant guys" to experence this passion, while you plan your next visit. Ok. On to the food. This a a specific focus on a specialty appetizer that is not always on the menu. The caviar. Over the past few years, I have had three different opportunities to enjoy this delightful pop of flavor. Stage Left sources the caviar, serving Imperia Osetra Caviar. The presentation is classical in its simplicity, c
