Where Food Meets Family

Golden Horn is a family-owned restaurant on Route 66 in Tinton Falls, run by a family that has been in the restaurant business for more than 20 years. It's billed as Mediterranean, but the family is Turkish, and in the words of the Two River Times, “the menu reflects their culinary heritage in great depth.”

That menu is long. There are cold and hot mezze, lamb and chicken kebabs, steaks, seafood, pide and lahmacun from the Turkish oven, pasta, a kids menu and about twenty desserts, from baklava and künefe to kazandibi. On weekdays there's a lunch menu from 11am to 3pm.

The restaurant doesn't serve alcohol and is BYO. It also caters bridal showers, birthday parties and corporate events, with delivery or pickup.
