“NY Fries was incredibly delicious, loved the Poutine with Pulled Pork BBQ and Cheese Curds. Went to Canada a year ago Jul. where I ate some different types of Poutine. NY Fries does it great. I hope more locations pop up in NJ. I'll be coming back to try more things.“

“Such a cute place, such a throwback, with excellent friendly service and great food! My burger and chili dog completely hit the spot and washing it down with their trademark rootbeer was such a treat! Can’t wait to come back!“

“We had our wedding reception here on July 19th, 2025, and we absolutely loved working with them! It was the perfect place for us and they seriously exceeded our expectations. We met with Mike, and he helped us create the perfect party. Setting times to meet with him felt seamless and we felt well prepared after every meeting. He was always very real when he met with us—no extra gimmicks or tricks which honestly sold us even more. On top of that, their general staff, food quality, and overall assistance, were exceptional. They gave so much during the food tasting, so definitely come hungry. The meals weren’t even a main priority for us, but I need one of our friends to have a wedding there so I could have their food again. During my touchups, we were given the cutest room upstairs, where they also gave us our own plate before being able to talk to our guests during cocktail hour. We were told by a relative that we’d be well taken care of here, and that perfectly explains our experience with them. Throughout the entire night, we were simply able to just enjoy, thanks to the staff. They were incredibly kind, patient, and proficient, especially the maitre d. They’d additionally accommodate well to all of our guests, and even vendors. Our friends and family still rave about this venue. Please highly consider Old Bermuda Inn for your next event. We already can’t wait to work with them again in the future, and we thank them for going above and beyond for us!

They took care of the sweetheart table (and its decorations), table numbers, table menus, and we ordered our cake through them. As you can see, we had the best time!“

“The atmosphere was very relaxing. Felt like a nice place to eat that wasn’t too crowded or overstuffed. The food was well prepared and left me feeling full and satisfied. I like that they update the menu to different seasons so I’ll return to see what new dishes they’ll serve next.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Estime Cafe today, it was an outstanding experience! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was phenomenal, warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. This is the first Haitian restaurant I’ve visited that delivered such impeccable service, and it made all the difference. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, bringing out the rich, bold flavors of Haitian cuisine. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Haitian food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and a top-tier dining experience. My husband and I will definitely be returning!“

“From the moment Drew opened his doors in his original location we quickly became fans. This creative Chef who works magic with food has turned Drew’s Bayshore Bistro into one of the most popular restaurants to eat at. People come from all over to enjoy and will take any time slot available to do so. We have eaten here more times than I can count and have had many group dinners and celebrations. Drew’s new location is beyond beautiful and only a stone’s throw from his prior place. We just love the feel of the new home and the beautiful ambiance. it’s absolutely gorgeous from street view and fits perfectly into Keyport’s historic vibe. The food is also over the top insanely incredible. Oh yes I have favorites. The scallops are perfectly sautéed, tender juicy and was served with pesto risotto. A true explosion of flavor. Broiled oysters are one of the most incredible thing I’ve ever tasted and honestly could eat two portions for my main, but haven’t done that yet as there are so many things to try. Pork chops, steaks, soft shell crabs, voodoo shrimp, homemade ice cream and all his special makes it hard to choose what to order. Incredible list of specials are always offered. Menu changes for seasonal favorites. I feel like a kid in a candy store when I look at the menu. We are very thankful to Drew for sharing his vision and providing all of us with a delectable dinning experience each time we eat here. Five stars are not enough!“

“On a Tuesday evening, it was quiet--giving us time and space to talk with our friends, which was our goal. On Tuesday, there is also a special deal on appetizers: buy one, get one. We enjoyed our food. We looked over the check, which was just fine, as expected, but when we handed over our credit card, whoever ran the card put a different total on the charge, which we noticed as soon as the card was returned. They fixed it, but it should not have happened. Basically, a good place for appetizers, burgers, pizzas, and simple entrees. We will go back.“

“Great food! Great service! Bella was our waitress for a party and she was great and so friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“My hubby and I came here for lunch. Once we sat down, we were immediately greeted by our server Austin. I cannot tell you how amazing he was. From the second we sat down until the moment we left, he was outstanding. Friendly, professional, knowledgeable about the food and patient. He gave such great suggestions and I followed his suggestions. I got the quesadilla and my hubby got the rise and shine. Both were so so good! The quesadilla was DELICIOUS. I had it with a sauce on the side and it was amazing. We also spoke with the manager James who was so so nice and professional and just such a pleasure to speak with. Hands down recommend this restaurant and if you are a nice person, ask for Austin!“

“Rock (Tavern) Fries, Wings, Burgers“

“Best pizza I’ve ever eaten in my life!“

“We got the Bratwurst at the New Brunswick Oktoberfest. Best I ever had and I've been going to them all over the tristate area for 25 years.“

“Very clean restaurant, Food Delicious, Waitress Lee courteous, polite, so nice a pleasure to talk to. Will definetely go back.“

“Great establishment with a great atmosphere. The employees were welcoming and respectful and kind. Had one hiccup with someone there not sure who they were but it seems like they didn't want certain people speaking to the employees.
Visited there for Colombian independence.
Would definitely recommend to friends and family.“

“When we entered for lunch at 12:30, we were quickly greeted and seated to a location we wanted. The host ensured the sun was not too bright and closed the shades.
Our server Claudia was so friendly and sweet. She covered all the specials and was so quick to bring our drinks.
When she brought our food she provided extra sauces and double checked to ensure everything was to our liking.
It was a delight to have Claudia as our server, she was so friendly and fun to interact with.
Thanks for such a great experience Claudia!“

“This ice cream is seriously SO good and so creamy. You can really taste the difference between this and other ice creams. They have so many flavors and every single one we’ve tried has been spot on and tastes exactly like what it’s supposed to. The staff is also amazing and so nice. We will definitely be back!!“

“It was our first time dinning at Kona grill and we loved it. We were treated like valuable guests and our food was brought quick. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend the flight margarita, it was amazing and perfect amount of alcohol. We loved it.“

“Food is decent for a place such that but once you look inside hygiene of the place isn’t inviting 🥴 so if you order your food not leaning into window you will enjoy it but if you glance a bit condition of kitchen you might think twice“

“Been going here for years with my family. Good food and friendly staff. I also belong to a Car Club and we go there on Friday nights during the car shows and Monday nights in the winter time. Allie is our Bartender. She's the best! 🍻
1/24/2026 Still going to Applebee's Friday night during the Car Show season and most Friday nights during the winter months. Alexa and Kait are our Top Notch Bartenders now 👍🍻. Allie left a while ago.
7/3/2026 Went to Applebee's tonight with my Car Buddies. The Car Show was canceled due to the extreme high temperatures. We had a good time eating at the Bar. Alexa and Meli were our Bartenders. Kait left for sunny Florida 🌞“

“Excellent restaurant! The staff were great, terrific atmosphere, the food was outstanding and they made my wifes birthday really special.“

“10 out of 10! Absolutely love this place! Everything is always fresh“

“Awesome eatery and a great time to visit on a Monday afternoon. They're normally extremely packed and I can see why. Nice, big and spacious space. Their staff are extremely well mannered.

As for their food, it speaks to why they are usually busy. It is so delicious and portioned to the value you pay. Can't wait to try again.“

“Fun Place to grab drinks and a quick bite!“

“While not exclusively vegan I'm still going to give them 5 stars because their vegan menu alone is larger than many vegan only establishments. It's not fine dining, you're not going to find tons of fresh veggies or smoothies or raw vegan dishes BUT for vegan fast food it's our local go-to place.“

“Ate here for the 1st time today and the food was delicious. I had the French toast and my daughter had one of the skillets. The iced coffee was great too. Will definitely be back“

“Creative food, friendly staff, always delicious.“

“Got married in Vegas then threw a celebration with family & friends. Couldn’t have been more perfect 💕👍🏻“

“Tried it today first time since I moved to Carteret. Food was great and the owner was so nice. He prepared the food while telling the story and history of this town and his hot dog stand. Honestly this was the best food experience I had in Carteret, would definitely visit again whenever I get a chance. Tommy you rock 🙌“

“Great lunch! Love the building!“

“We had a wonderful dining experience! The food was delicious, and you could really tell that high-quality ingredients were used. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and made for a very enjoyable meal. The service was outstanding as well our server, Mpho, was friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of throughout our visit. Mpho's excellent customer service truly made the experience even better. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant!“

“First and foremost, our server Jennifer may have been the most nicest and friendliest waitress I’ve ever encountered. She either loves her job or is an amazing actress. The food was very good, my parents enjoyed their burger. I had the roast beef sandwich which was fantastic. If you go here, you should ask for Jennifer to be your waitress so you can see what I’m talking about.“

“Great service every time I’ve been there“

“Amazing service been going there for as long as I can remember“

“Good atmosphere and great food“

“Best seafood soup .so far I've ever tasted“

“For a hotel, it certainly was refreshing. Traveling a lot you don't always get the best food selection.

With that said, the crispy Brussels sprouts, OH-EM-GEE. Hear me out. They were the best thing I think I've eaten...in well, ever. It wasn't just the whole Brussels sprout itself, it was mostly the outer skins that was coated in seasonings, oil, and crispy. They were SO GOOD!

I definitely recommend the French Onion soup as well, we had that twice. 😋“

“I’ve been to this place since I was a little girl my parents always ordered from here and now I go w my bf when I can I love their California cheese burger w fries never disappoints me ❤️❤️❤️

They are sweet people and always smile and say hi to you I hate all the negativity in the comments but Im going to say this place is the best ever never leave please I’ll always eat from here 🥹“

“Excellent service , cozy atmosphere. Place is second to none !“
