“Naya at Ralph's in Asbury Boardwalk is wonderful. I have brought my special needs camp there for the last 2 years and she has been patient and kind to everyone in our group. It will be an annual trip for us after the Silverball Museum from now on. Congratulations on running a great business. Five stars“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting River Street Sweets in Asbury Park, New Jersey, and it was a delightful experience. The turtles are an absolute must-try – each bite is a perfect balance of caramel, pecans, and chocolate. I also recommend the Irish Potato. Beyond all the delicious treats they offer, what truly stood out was the warmth and kindness of the owner, Robin. Her passion for sweets and dedication to creating a welcoming atmosphere make the whole experience even sweeter. River Street Sweets is not just a place for exceptional treats; it's a testament to the incredible impact a person like Robin can have on a community. This business radiates positivity, making it a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth and an appreciation for genuine hospitality.“

“My boyfriend picked up my ice cream cake last weekend (March 2nd) and the cake was AMaZINg! It came out better than expected. The cake decorator did an incredible job at making his idea come to life! It was vanilla, with chocolate peanut butter and chocolate drizzled on the side. It tasted delicious! We will be back for future cakes. Thank you!“

“I don't...lousy service...manager that calls customers names....when she made the mistake. Unprofessional. WILL NOT GO THERE AGAIN!“

“Just visited Sweet N Joe and will definitely be returning. Yummy ice cream.“

“Great spot down the street from apple picking. Our server was super considerate and accommodating for food allergies. The ice cream itself is delicious with lots of cute flavors. I would be in trouble if I lived near here.

Vegetarian options: They offered a vegan oreo option“

“Now this is a way better and more AWESOME!!! ice cream truck service, safety updated with an electric swing arm stop sign like on school buses which is extremely AWESOME , safe, clear, and recognizable because octagon means STOP whereas sideways trapezoid with rounded corners on the wide end and pointed corners on the narrow end means SLOW unlike some other ice cream truck services that still have the bad old outdated red trapezoid children slow crossing warning blades that word IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO which is confusing.“

“Very simply the ice cream is excellent. The atmosphere is great. The service is good although it does sometimes get very crowded and you have to wait online but it’s well worth the wait some of the best ice cream I’ve had in a long time and I’ve eaten a lot of ice cream.“

“Great customer service at the Red Bank location! Delicious flavors for all tastes.“

“Great experience!“

“Amazing tuna poke bowl! Will be back!“

“We only love two ice cream places. Sundaes is one of them. Great product and service always.“

“These Frozen delicases are clearly a quality product. They are refreshing, and full of flavor. There are many varieties to choose from; one is sure to hit the spot no matter what mood you're in. Treat yourself once; and you'll be back for more!“

“I don’t remember the names of the ice creams we got… a Bourbon Coffee one and a Peanut Butter with Oreo (I mean, come on, that’s a dream combination). The ice cream was so dense and absurdly decadent. I have half a mind to go back a second time before we head home!“

“We loved it. Perfect after a day at the beach 🏖 Try the Root beer…“

“amoooooo este lugar 😩❤️ tan lindo para visitar con familia y amigos 😊 (also a cute date idea🤭)“

“Been going here since 2003 and before when the owner had a gold chain and tan with a white tank top on. Mad cool dude still works there. Anytime I'm down that way my mom and girlfriend we always stop. Excellent service. Excellent prices. Excellent ice cream and ice. Deff the go to! For years and years!“

“The best employees and Louis thinks the vanilla custard is the tops!“

“So I have done fasting before, usually once a year for 3-6 days. So I'm used to going without food but this seemed to give me the same benefits and I didn't get hangry :) I combined my juice cleanse with my brand of CBD (Raw Botanics) and found that this greatly enhanced my experience. The CBD cut down on the anxiety of going without food, helped with my sleep which was an issue and I believe helped in the overall detox. I would 100% recommend Raw Generation paired with CBD. I did the cleanse by the book no food with the exception of 1 avocado on the first night. I cut out all other supplements and vitamins for the week. I did exercise but pretty lightly. Most of the weight for me came off on the first 3 days and it seemed to plateau by day 5. So next time I do this I may just do a 3 or 5 day. My total weight loss was 10 pounds and that was the goal. Once I went back to regular food 4 pounds came right back on but after a few weeks now I'm still better than before I did the cleanse. I plan to do a cleanse like this at least a few times a year. Other benefits I had was improved complexion, energy, and digestion, and my joint pain completely went away. Raw Generation is 100% worth the money.“

“We only love two ice cream places. Sundaes is one of them. Great product and service always.“

“Yummy spot for some ice cream right on the boardwalk. They have a wonderful array of tasty flavors and there was no line when we went. It is a little expensive, though not horrible considering the boardwalk. Would recommend if craving a sweet treat!“

“My daughter and I absolutely love Rita's. Specifically this location. All the Employees that work here are always kind and always smiling. The owners son Michael is a great guy and boss from what I see and hear. Allways treating his Employees with respect and kindness.“

“Best Carvel around!“

“Carvel NEVER disappoints!! The best soft serve you will ever have in your life. You gotta have it with the marshmallow sauce, hot fudge and crunchies!! Every time I’ve been to them I’ve never gotten bad ice cream. Go there you won’t regret! This is the best one I’ve been to out of all the ones I’ve gone!“

“i loved this place! i got an extra small coffee w chocolate sprinkles in a waffle cone and it was the best treat after a long day at the beach. the sprinkles were my favorite part - they’re smaller and crunchier than regular sprinkles and they seemed tastier too. will 100% be back next time we’re at the beach!“

“On Sunday we stopped in to pick-up something to take over to my brother and sister in-laws house for dessert. What's better than Carvel. There was so much to choose from it all looked so good!!! I can remember as a kid Carvel commercials how can you forget Cookie Puss. After a long time on making a decision we chose the ice cream sandwiches Yummy. Upon arriving we told my brother in-law we got ice cream sandwiches his serious reply was he never meant a ice cream sandwich he didn't like. They were absolutely deliciousI want to say the woman running the shop was very professional and pleasant. She was extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend this location.“

“Great experience! Ordered 2 ice cream cakes for my father's birthday. They were amazing and the customer service from start to finish was exceptional. Will be ordering my birthday cakes from these guys in the future. Thank you and awesome job!!!!!!!!“

“Plenty of seats available. Order kiosks available if you want to take your time to customize your order, but the counter service is friendly enough to get what you need. The açaí bowls were very delicious, and the Greek yogurt was a nice touch.Almost 20$ a bowl, but worth it as a treat for sure.“

“Thank you so much Kelly and Chrissy for a delicious cake! Not one piece is left! Creamy ice cream and awesome crunchies!!!“

“Sea Bright (NJ), a small town tucked between Shrewsbury River and Atlantic Ocean on the Jersey Shore. Yes there are more popular towns on the Jersey Shore. But this town has Gracie & The Dudes (1062 Ocean Ave Sea Bright, NJ). Plus, one of the better Thai Food joints (Moo Yai Thai, next door) in NJ.

There is something about small-town home-made ice cream by the shore. It always seems creamier and more authentic. The Espresso Coffee flavored ice-cream packs a punch (It will wake you up). Banana with chips is another winner. I had Chocolate with Cherry (really amazing).

I would rather have ice cream at Gracie & The Dudes than some fancy place in a big town. Let me correct that, ideally, I would have the Thai Food (just counter service and take out) at Moo Yai Thai and then go for the ice next door.“

“One of the best cookies/pastries in the town. They serve different flavors every week. Services is fast. You can order online as well. Parking is available. No dine in unfortunately. The quality is very good and the taste is pretty good most of the times. “

“We were up from South Carolina visiting family in Tinton Falls and after a day walking the neighborhood, it was time for ice cream. We are repeat customers here at Ryan's, which has a very nice selection of ice cream, including soft serve. It's located on a main drag and should do great business, but we were there five minutes after opening (couldn't wait ?) so it was all ours.“

“Went fairly late in the evening. They have an icecream sandwich. For some reason it did not work for me. The ice cream itself was good, the cookie was good. But the combination did not work.
Tried the Caramel pretzel fudge between the Macadamia nut cookie.
Bit expensive, same price range as Cold Stone.
The Waffle cone with Butter Brittle cake was better.
Friendly staff.
Great Location.“

“Very tasty ice cream. They give out hefty-sized scoops and their cones are good too. Normal flavors mixed with specialty flavors makes the menu diverse. They also have giant cookies and brownies if you're looking for that extra sugar high. They're decent.

Staff is friendly: pretty relaxed, quiet place. Younger people in school and the owner (I think) are usually behind the counter and they do a fine job in my experience there.“

“Milk,dark & white chocolate pretzels were delish! Also the different flavored truffles were decadent. Drop by and feed your sweet tooth. Yummy.“

“So many flavors to choose from. Change it up with each visit“
