“Was there after the lunch crowd today 2/1/22. The place was spotless, the restroom was also. Excellent choice of burgers and sandwiches. My wife and I both had burgers and we both agreed they were the best we have had in at least 20 yrs. Grade A meat and the french fries were freshly cut and fried. Can't wait to get back. If you are a movie buff like me you will love the decor. The service was great also.“

“Located near the beach. (Busy 4th of July weekend. A Saturday. Parking is difficult. There’s a public parking garage for $40. What a ripoff from the town. Very little street parking. There was a lot charging $30 so we did that. But still. Well, that’s the jersey shore.) The parking has nothing to do with the quality of the restaurant. I’m just noting parking factors 😉
So now the food …. There aren’t entrees apparently Saturday and Sunday. But Mon - Fri apparently there is. On Weekends It’s burgers and things. There were several items they didn’t have such as the lamb pops. We were a party of 5. We truly had enough food. Enjoyed the drinks such as beer, shots, martinis. A French martini, lychee martini etc. I’m a vegetarian and there was a lot for me. We ordered a charcuterie board to share. It was a great time ! I highly recommend it. The staff is great.“

“First time at Charlie’s of Lincroft after frequenting their Bay Head location for years. The experience was 5 stars all the way around. Food was excellent and our server Heidi was top notch! Highly recommend the octopus appetizer and the NY strip steak. Both done to perfection. Not a cheap night out but definitely a special night out. We’ll be back!“

“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!“

They were beyond accommodating and communicative throughout the entire planning process. The service the day of was top notch. Staff was very friendly and professional helping the event run smoothly! The food is absolutely incredible, everything from the appetizers to the entrees were fresh and flavorful! If you are looking for a great dinner spot or a local place to plan your next event, I would gladly recommend Catherine’s! Can’t wait to go back for dinner soon 😊“

“Stayed overnight for a one day work trip. After a 51/2 hour drive the last thing I wanted to do was drive anywhere for dinner ( didn’t want food in take out containers either) sat at the bar, had a Caesar salad and pasta primavera, added salmon.
The salmon was perfectly cooked as ordered ( medium rare) and it was excellent! A bit pricey, but excellent food and service!“

“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.“

“Everyone there is awesome and I trust them with anything they make me. My family has been coming here since they opened and all of them are family to me. You know it’s trust when you walk in and tell Anthony, make me whatever you want. Never fails and it’s always amazing.“

“Nothing fancy, but excellent food and service with a smile …. One of my favorites.“

“The breakfast is excellent at the Riverside Cafe . Their pancakes are among the best I have ever had with great texture and flavor, (no need for syrup). I also liked their egg sandwiches and homemade hash browns. Looking forward to trying more food from here. It is nice to have friendly service while enjoying the view of the boats as they move through the inlet.“

“Had the Tricolore Salad with grilled shrimp today and it was DELICOUS!!!! Dad has the poke bowl and loved it. Service and atmosphere were great!“

“My husband and I LOVE River Rock's outdoor dining. We enjoy seeing the boats coming and going while we eat. The Manasquan River is a beautiful sight. Any food items that we have ordered are delicious. Lauren Guenther is one of our favorite servers. She's a sweetheart. She's very friendly, personable, and very focused on what she's doing. We know Lauren from when she served at Carrabba's. She was very special to us back then as she is now. Being local residents, we visit River Rock frequently during the summer and we will ALWAYS request either Lauren or Kelsey Conover because we simply adore them both. River Rock is our outdoor Happy Place during the summer. 💗💗“

“I had a really long day and actually wasn't feeling going put to dinner. Great experience, great staff, fantastic food. For us it was kid friendly and my children were becoming buddies with everyone. we will certainly be back with the whole family!“

“Solid pub/bar fare. You can't really go wrong with anything here, it's all just pretty damn good, but won't blow you away either. Let's be honest, you aren't walking into this place looking for a Michelin star quality meal, you want some wings, maybe a burger, and a few beers and yeah, you're gonna be very satisfied with what you get. 👍“

“Most relaxing place to dine.pancakes fantastic. Great coffee. Great people come to eat & relax.“

“The food was delicious, featuring an assortment of teas and coffee options. I enjoyed the Huevos Ranchero bowl, and we also shared the Great Pumpkin Pancake special, which was truly outstanding. Although this is not my first visit, I can confidently say that I have never had a bad experience here. The quality of the food is complemented by excellent service, an appealing menu, and a pleasant atmosphere.“

“Creative menu, excellent food and the staff was attentive. Highly recommended.“

“Cool to place to hang out and get a few cocktails and food.“

“I went to the Robinson Ale House on June 29, 2024. Service was excellent. The waitress was wonderful. My husband and I had lunch. I had a T-bone steak special , he had meatloaf. They were excellent. We had key lime pie for dessert. Really good too. We were seated outside on the side because we needed shade. Planning another trip in August. I can’t wait to try the Drunken Clams this time if it’s still on their menu. I hope I get the same waitress. If they still have the T-bone on their daily special I recommend you get that. I had mine medium rare. Quite pricey but well worth it. The rest of the menu is moderately priced. Good generous sized portions. Definitely recommend. 5 stars“

“We always have great service and the bar style food has been yummy…thanks Big Rob at the Ocean NJ location tonight for a great night YOU ROCK!“

“Just have to say, got the Shroom Soup from I'm a I'm A Local Beach House Cafe yesterday and it was amazing. If you are local, support Local and get some soup for this cold week!! The breakfast in summer is amazing as well!!“
