“Food is Asian fusion. Everything I've ever had here was fantastic. Oysters on the half shell were over the top and so fresh. Fried whole black sea bass in Asian sauce was incredible! We shared lobster shrimp Cantonese fried rice and it was a meal on its own. Had to take the rest home. Sushi menu also extensive, large portions and very fresh. This location is just as good and the original in Tom's river . We will definitely go back.“

“For some reason I was in the mood for lobster and I never am in the mood for lobster. I ordered the classic lobster roll for $22. I am always astounded about the cost of lobster rolls. Not sure how they stay in business. This was good. Toasted bun and lobster was fresh. Small portion but thats always the case with a lobster roll. Got my fix and would come back. 3.5 stars but rounding up.“

In the best location as far as walking distances, it couldn’t get any easier. Had a few apps and a couple drinks, which I highly suggest the tajin popsicle margarita!!
A def revisit for some fun, and as always a couple adult beverages.“

Everything from the atmosphere to the quality of the food made this a place I’ll definitely be coming back to and recommending to others.“

That said we knew it was going to be a good evening before even trying our food! Then we had the tuna pizza and ceviche PHENOMENAL! We asked if we could have chips with the ceviche and at first they were unsure but they made it happen and it was so good! We also tried three rolls and honestly they were some of the best we've ever had! We cannot wait to be back!“

“I know Italian food. I asked AI what was the highest rated Italian restaurant in Long Branch. It gave me Rockafellers.
I knew the moment I tasted the sauce that came with the delicious Calzone that everything was going to be great. It was fresh and delicious.
The pizza was a home run. If I had to guess the pasta is going to be great too.
We'll find out later tonight!
Thank you!
Everything was great from the delivery to the food!“

“Great food and nice place to be“

“We’ve been going to Illiano’s nearly 36 years. It’s been great since day 1. We usually do takeout and find the pizza, subs and garlic knots to be the best in Monmouth County. When we moved out of town about 3 years ago we tried to find something that was comparable and closer, but that didn’t work out so make the trip back just about every Friday night. We highly recommend them!“

“Food was great this is the third time we've eaten here. I had a clam chowder. Food is definitely good. Service was very good and decent parking lot. They even have fresh fish if you're looking for something to take home and cook. I recommend checking this place out. In the warmer weather you can even eat outside“

“Excellent food. Went there for birthday celebration and we weren’t disappointed“
