“Came here for a quick, Sunday homestyle breakfast and was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is unique, to say the least, but also gives a lot to start conversations amongst the table. Serving portions were superb and food was very tasty. I have seen other comments and reviews that were very negative and nasty, but everybody can have a bad day once in a while. They were complaining on the service and owner/waiter being rude and yelling. I've seen more positive ratings than negative ones. While not everybody has the same humor, people can definitely be some Debbie downers. All in all, we had a nice experience and enjoyed the food. Ihop who?? Lol will def be back!!!“

“I ordered a custom icecream for a special occasion. Cake was made exactly to my request, everything from the different layers, icecream flavors, & toppings. Everyone enjoyed the cake and asked, where is the icecream cake from? If you have a peanut butter lover in your life, I highly recommend this peanut butter themed icecream cake. Aside from this custom order, we are regular customers. The icecream sundaes are our favorite. You always get good portions (scoops) served. The medium is almost too much for me. That's a good thing. Chocolate Chip Mint, Hot Fudge, Whipped Cream, and topped with M & Ms is my favorite. This review is for the Lanoka Harbor, NJ location.“

Icarus Brewing Brewery • $$
2045 NJ-88, Brick - 7.47 miles

“I recently visited Icarus Brewing and had a mixed experience. The beer selection was solid, with a decent range of craft options, but the overall atmosphere was marred by a significant issue. My friend ended up cutting his hand on broken glass outside in the beer garden. It seems that there were shards of glass on the tables or benches, which could pose a danger, especially if you have kids. While the staff was responsive and offered assistance, it’s worth being cautious about glass and keeping an eye on little ones. The brewery has potential, but I hope they address these safety concerns for a better experience in the future.“
