Whispers is the perfect place for a romantic evening. The Victorian ambiance, with its crystal chandeliers and elegant fine dining, sets the tone for a special night out. As one reviewer put it, 'The ambiance is very nice. Tables a little too close together. The dining room was full. Noise just a little too much. There was a smaller dining room with almost no one in it which have been used for the over flow crowd.' It's a quiet and comfortable spot for conversation and intimate moments.

Discovering the experience of dining in a place such as Cannes or Nice was never easier than now with the opening of the French Bistro and Raw Bar, Avenue. The only difference between dining at Avenue and dining along the Côte d'Azur, is that your gaze lands on waves on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Avenue is located along our side of the pond, on our own eastern shores in Long Branch, New Jersey. This gleaming new restaurant is designed by the internationally renowned architect David Collins, and the collaboration is nothing short of amazing.
