A New Standard for Seafood and Social Dining
100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar, a neighborhood favorite in Cranford, New Jersey, is redefining the dining experience with its perfect blend of fresh seafood and a lively, community-oriented atmosphere. Led by proprietor Jack Tagmouti, the restaurant has established itself as a destination where guests can enjoy not only exceptional meals but also meaningful connections.
"What we’ve created here goes beyond great food," said Tagmouti. "Our goal is to make every visit an opportunity to enjoy remarkable meals while connecting with others—whether it’s family, neighbors, or new friends."
A Fresh Approach to the Raw Bar
At the heart of the restaurant’s appeal is its raw bar, featuring an array of fresh seafood delivered daily from trusted suppliers. Guests can enjoy raw oysters, clams, and other delicacies sourced straight from the boat, ensuring peak freshness and flavor.
"We work directly with top-tier fishmongers to guarantee the freshest catch every day," explained Tagmouti. "The raw bar is more than a menu item—it’s an experience that celebrates the best of the ocean."
From traditional seafood offerings to seasonal specialties, the raw bar reflects the restaurant’s commitment to quality and sustainability. Guests can savor a curated selection of the finest shellfish while exploring creative flavor combinations that highlight the kitchen’s innovative approach.
A Social Experience Unlike Any Other
What sets 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar apart from other seafood destinations is its lively and welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant has become a hub for social interaction, where diners often run into neighbors, reconnect with old friends, or strike up conversations with fellow guests.
The space is designed to foster connection, creating a sense of community that keeps patrons coming back. Whether guests are celebrating a special occasion, enjoying a casual night out, or hosting private events, the restaurant offers an inviting environment that feels more like a social club than a traditional dining venue.
"Our customers often tell us how much they love the energy of the space," Tagmouti said. "It’s a place where people come not only for the food but for the experience of being part of a community."
A Menu That Delivers Creativity and Flavor
While the raw bar is a highlight, the menu at 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar offers something for everyone. The culinary team combines classic seafood preparations with innovative techniques to craft dishes that surprise and delight.
Seasonality plays a major role in the menu’s design, with an emphasis on showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients. Guests can expect a mix of traditional favorites and inventive creations, ensuring there’s always something new to discover.
And as a BYOB restaurant, 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar invites guests to bring their favorite wine or beer to perfectly complement the meal.
A Nod to Local Roots
The restaurant’s name, 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar, pays homage to its beginnings as a sister location to another Cranford institution just 100 steps away. Though the restaurant has since established its own identity, it continues to honor its local roots with a focus on community and connection.
"We’ve grown, but we haven’t forgotten where we came from," said Tagmouti. "Cranford is our home, and we’re proud to be a part of this incredible community."
