“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”

“Overall experience was good. Starters and main entrees good. Desserts below pare. However the service was very good and the ambiance lovely. We will come back for dinner when the weather warms and the Tiki Bar is open and there is music”

“Stopped by the newly opened Gigi’s in Long Branch on my way to the beach. First off, loved that they have a parking lot which didn’t stress me about finding a spot cause I was going to have that adventure when I headed to the beach. I ordered the grandma’s pie and garlic knots! The grandma’s pie had pesto on it and I am a s***** for pesto!! Love the crust style being crispy. Hands down the best garlic knots I ever had! Don’t sleep on this place. It’s 3 blocks from the beach, easy parking and they deliver. I look forward to some pasta dishes on my next visit! Other key likes of mine was the aesthetic, it’s beautiful Inside but decorated to make you feel outside. I was very impressed with the kid friendly atmosphere of the chalkboard wall, beanbag seats and they even have juice boxes on hand for the kiddos. They also accommodate our tweens and teens with a pizza wing mural for their insta! They really thought of everything. The whole staff were so accommodating and genuine. Thank you Tommy and Faye for a great experience.”

“The breakfast there was amazing and the bacon pancakes are to die for. That’s how good they were. That was the breakfast my family had”

“Stingers in Long Branch has become a go-to spot for my family whenever we're in the area. The service is always great, and the kid-friendly environment makes it an easy choice for dining out with the little ones.

One of the best things about Stingers is how much the kids love the food. They request to eat here every time we're nearby, and it's easy to see why. The menu offers plenty of options that keep the kids happy, and the staff always goes out of their way to make sure everyone is taken care of.

If you're looking for a place that combines excellent service with a welcoming atmosphere for families, Stingers is the place to be. We’ll definitely keep coming back!”

“Great experience!”

“A little secret! Really good food! Tasty, fresh, and made with love.”

“I love this place, tudo maravilhosos e fresquinho sempre”

“The food is consistent. And DELICIOUS. I’ve tried many Mexican restaurants as it’s my favorite. And this is my go to. Slow-er on the service but that’s due to how incredibly busy they are with take out orders alone. It’s family owned and run. They are so nice and I can’t speak enough about how authentic the food is.”

“My favorite place to buy a salad! Everything was very fresh and the staff was very friendly!”

“An authentic Mexican restaurant with a variety of options. I’m not the most expert in Mexican food, but I really liked what I had there. The food was fresh and the lamb tastes great. The inside atmosphere is so energetic and very colorful. The staff were nice and accommodating. Outside street parking is available but usually full during rush hours. Prices are ok, most are average, a little bit overpriced on few dishes. Overall very nice experience and recommended.”

“Great food and service. Luis and Javier, and all the other workers are friendly, quick and always get your order right!”

“Been going to Max’s since I was kid & they were on the Boardwalk. Still the best hot dog I’ve ever had. Also love their crispy onion rings, steak fries, zucchini fries & sweet potato fries. Other menu items look good however I cannot go to Max’s without getting their famous hot dog!”

“De los mejores restaurantes de comida colombiana , encuentras todas las gaseosa de Colombia , es una delicia Y el servicio es maravilloso”

“Their service is agile, the people serve you well, they serve you in several languages, what needs to be improved is the cleanliness in the place, there is always garbage on the tables.”

“I love coming back to my hometown and having a place to go where it's friendly and has an old school vibe. Bartenders are cool, drinks are reasonably priced. The food is pretty good.”

“I don’t remember the names of the ice creams we got… a Bourbon Coffee one and a Peanut Butter with Oreo (I mean, come on, that’s a dream combination). The ice cream was so dense and absurdly decadent. I have half a mind to go back a second time before we head home!”

“What great place for the REAL TYPICAL BRAZILIAN food! Absolutely perfect! I knew they were great for lunch/dinner. However, today I went for Breakfast! Such a huge variety of Brazilian pastries! Spectacular!”

“Excelente servicio y atención.”

“When reviewing their menu, we saw Birria Tacos and were immediately committed. Upon arrival we were a little alarmed that there was nobody in the restaurant! There are 2 other attached venues by same owners which had customers. But the lack of patrons was a bit of a red flag.

Our service started out with our server, Austin, telling us the drinks we wanted from the on-line menu were no longer available. But they tried to make a smoked cocktail for us first and realized they were out of smoker chips. Our large party of 8 mostly ordered Margaritas, which were decent and discounted on Tuesdays.

We ordered food including Nachos, Quacamole, Quesabirria and Birria tacos, as well as fish tacos and al pastor. The food was fresh and excellent!

We had a visit from an owner/manager as well as the chef. The staff helped us get the Phillies game on the table-side TV.

Overall, the highlight of the night was definitely the Birria, whose consommé was rich, flavorful and not greasy like some. Also the cheese level on the tacos was perfect, the meat was tender and flavorful and the fresh cilantro really made it all pop.

The second best feature of our visit was definitely the service.

My phone battery died before I could get pics of food, but the space is cool.

Highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: Nachos, Fish Tacos for pescatarians, vegetarian tacos too.”

“Great food. On the more authentic side. Waitress was very accommodating when I asked for extra verde and was bilingual.

Kid-friendliness: Casual restaurant. Not too fancy to bring children”

“I just ate at this restaurant and I find restaurant really appealing. The restaurant is so so so so clean. It has great food and it has great service. The fact that people are putting one star reviews just because they didn’t get one or two things that they ordered or one or two things that wasn’t perfect. It’s crazy to me. This restaurant has some work for improvement, but that’s the definition of having a restaurant. This restaurant is on the right track and I really like the food, especially because they brought Brazilian food to an area with a whole bunch of other different restaurants.”

“I visited The Herd Juicery and was totally impressed. They have refreshing fruit bowls and juices, and they serve hot meals that are gluten-free and plant-based. For anyone who has celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's nice not having to worry about gluten cross contamination. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Even my husband loved his bowl and felt full afterwards without needing to take a nap. The smoothie bowls were a perfect guilt free desert!”

“I have been a customer for decades the new ownership has raised the bar (no pun) to eggcelance!!!! Love the fish taco and asada tacos mine and my wife favorites. The soups are super healthy and the deli is out of this world.”

“salgados muito bem recheados pão de queijo top e biscoito frito sem gordura maravilhoso”

“Lezama's Special Pizza and Lisa's Salad were excellent and my parents were exceedingly pleased with their Take Out choices. Well done”

“Want some fried chicken, this is the place for some very chicken. Years ago my family always would get a family style chicken from a chicken place long Branch had, now crown chicken is the place to be for chicken!”

“I love Millers. Place is always clean. Food is phenomenal. Great prices and wonderful quick service”

“What a find! This local Pizzeria is a gem. The quaint personalized interior is a combination of the owner's personality as well as a throwback to the 1950's when it first opened. The food is outstanding - Garlic bread - to die for!!! Verde Pie was unique and flavorful; and the naked meatballs taste like home. Our servers were attentive and friendly. Meeting the owner Christopher was the icing on the cake. He is a delightful young man that is bringing his own unique twist to the menu without sacrificing the status quo. I highly recommend and will be back soon..... Bravo”
