“I am leaving a production catering review. My Kitchen Witch provided catering to a large production crew and security where I work (a large historical building on Wall Street). I couldn't believe how quick and professional that My Kitchen Witch was in set-up, the meals, and the breakdown of their service. The food was excellent, especially the pork carnitas and Mexican street corn! I definitely highly recommend and would love to head to their cafe in Monmouth Beach, New Jersey!“

“Delivered a boat by water there a fee days ago. The Harbor Master. (I forget his name) was very helpful, friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable. Even as a non member he treated me and my partner kindly as we delivered a boat for someone else.“

“I visited the Peach Pit Cafe in Manasquan for breakfast and had a really good experience overall. It is a nice little spot, and we were seated right away by the friendly staff. Just a heads up on parking—it can be a bit difficult with the street parking, but there are some spots available in the back.

They have a fantastic breakfast menu with lots of delicious items to choose from. I ordered the basic eggs over-easy with fried potatoes, rye toast, and a side of bacon. The coffee tasted good, and all of my food was cooked perfectly.

My only real disappointment was the bottomless coffee. Unfortunately, our server never came back to our table to offer us drink refills. That aside, it is still a great local place, and I would definitely recommend checking it out!“

“A very vibrant Jersey shore restaurant with a nice waterfront view and good menu! We ordered rolls which were good but EXTREMELY SMALL! Honestly I've never eaten a smaller roll lol ! Fries were OK and salad was very bad Honestly, and very dry! Overall it was a nice experience!“
