Cafe Matisse in Rutherford Delivers a Fine Dining Experience Like No Other
Rutherford, NJ – Tucked away in the heart of Rutherford, Cafe Matisse is redefining fine dining in North Jersey. This hidden gem is offering guests an unforgettable culinary journey marked by artistic presentation, rich flavors, and a one-of-a-kind ambiance.
From the moment you step through the door, Cafe Matisse transports you to another world. With its elegant indoor and outdoor dining areas, the restaurant offers a romantic, whimsical setting that feels miles away from the everyday. In the warmer months, the garden patio becomes a showstopper — perfect for a date night, anniversary, or intimate evening out.
The restaurant operates on a four-course prix fixe menu, and every dish is crafted with meticulous detail. Each bite reflects the passion and precision of the kitchen, delivering bold flavor combinations and imaginative plating that elevate the entire dining experience.
Highlights from a recent visit included a starter of creamy burrata and perfectly seared octopus, followed by crab-stuffed shrimp and scallops. The third course was a trio of indulgent entrees — steak, duck, and Chilean sea bass — each expertly cooked and beautifully presented.
Dessert proved to be just as impressive, with a selection that included orange vanilla cheesecake, a rich brownie, and a classic crème brûlée, all prepared to perfection.
What truly sets Cafe Matisse apart is its attention to detail and hospitality. The chef and staff ensure that every guest receives a personalized, welcoming experience — a rarity even among high-end restaurants.
