“This was my first time here. I'm visiting from Pennsylvania. It won't be my last. We ordered dinner to go. We had Chicken La Nonna, and Housemade Rigatoni. Everything was light fresh and delicious. The portions were large enough to have some for lunch tomorrow. Fresh bread was excellent. Now let me tell you about the Creme Brule cheesecake. I can't. It was so good that even I am speechless. I may have to go back tomorrow for another piece. Absolutely delicious. The staff was very friendly and the service was great.”

Stingers 656 Ocean Avenue North, Long Branch Fast Food • $$

“From the first bite to the last, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was just right — the kind of place where you settle in and don't want to leave. But what turned a lovely dinner into something we'll be talking about for years was Z, our waitress. She was patient, generous, and had a gift for making our kids feel like the most important guests in the room — she made the whole evening feel fancy in the way that only truly means something when you're little. By the end, the kids had already decided (loudly, and non-negotiably) that this has to become a fixture of our annual family vacation. We left full, happy, and grateful — and already counting down to next time. Thank you, Z. We'll be back.”

“I’ve lived in the area for quite some time lived in West End when I first moved here after college, and man has it changed (still live right down the way between west end and pier village)! I thought west end lost its “cute/cool” factor-fun restaurants and bars/lounges and cute stores. Welles yesterday showed me it’s still there and I’ve been missing out on some amazing food!!
This place is fantastic. The service is warm and welcoming. The store has a fun, authentic feel-perfect for family. Solid outdoor eating. (Order at counter though still). Prices are fantastic—and then the food! I went with steak quesadilla. Was starving couldn’t think and went for it. The menu is extensive and has your typical favorites. I got this to go and walked back to my condo. When I opened it up, I was just beyond impressed. It smelled amazing and looked even better and tasted phenomenal. This is definitely on my regular list. I will be using this a lot. Definitely DoorDash it when I’m being lazy or just walking down to get a good walk and come back with Amazing authentic Mexican food. Thank you so much can’t wait to get back!!!! 💯👍👍💙🇲🇽🌮”

“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.”

They also offer good selection of ice cream flavors and toppings. They also offer indoor snd outdoor seating. I decided to try the combination of s brownie with a Nutella chocolate chunk cookie & ice flavor of caramel pretzel fudge. It was delicious, with so many possible combinations you really can't go wrong. During summer its a very popular spot so lines tend to build up but they move quickly. Prices are reasonable so it won't break the bank. If you're in the area definitely worth stopping by.”

“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.”

“Great service, yummy food, delicious drinks, and such a beautiful atmosphere. What a difference from our experience at JakeaBob’s—and only a few minutes farther! So glad we decided to check this place out.

You don’t have to be staying at the resort to enjoy the bar, food, and beautiful surroundings, which is a huge plus.

5 stars all around! What a perfect way to end the weekend and spend a beautiful Sunday with my hubby.”

Playa Bowls 88 Ocean Avenue North, Long Branch Health Food • $

“I order doordash from this location every morning and they're great! The one thing I'd like to suggest, instead of sealing the bag you guys put your smoothies in can you put the seal over the straw hole and around the side of the smoothie lid? I had one dasher bring me the smoothie with the bag tore open and told me verbatim "those idiots don't know how to pack right I had to open your bag so the smoothie didn't fall over". I requested a refund from doordash and tossed the smoothie cause he could have done anything with it he wanted. Otherwise I love this place!!!”

Ocean Soul Coffee 25 Matilda Terrace, Long Branch Coffee Shops • $

“This is hands-down my favorite coffee shop. Everything on the menu is incredible. I’ve tried so many different drinks here, and not once have I been disappointed. Whether it’s a matcha drink, coconut water hydrator, an iced cold brew special or one of Jen’s signature creations, every cup is thoughtfully made and absolutely delicious. There’s an item on the menu for every taste and preference, from skinny drinks to collagen protein add-ins, kid friendly ice pops, and more. You can tell that a lot of love goes into every detail — from the coffee itself to the welcoming vibe and friendly service. It’s the kind of place that instantly becomes a local favorite, and once you try it, you’ll keep coming back. If you’re even thinking about trying this place, do it. You’ll be a regular after one sip.”
