Siam special noodle plate with Calamari, as hot as we wanted, top notch. New owner was very Friendly. Served an extra(no charge) bowl for sharing the Soup.

“great pizza and welcoming”

“We received an advertisement with a coupon in the mail today and this place looked right up my alley. Having grown up in California, I am always on the hunt for really good Mexican food. I ordered dinner for my wife and I and it was great. The carnitas were excellent and the guacamole was great. The only thing I wish they had on their menu was Chile Verde as I can’t seem to find it on the East Coast. I will definitely be back soon as their takeout was hot and fresh. I’m glad to have found this place.”

“Was doordashing and decided to grab a bite. Friendly guys pleasure to be around. Got a free soda with 2 slices of pizza. Tried the buffalo chicken (my favorite type) and honestly was the best buffalo chicken pizza I've ever had. INCREDIBLY well balanced, was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I'm about 30 mins away and excited to try them about again every week or so. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Edit: the bread portion of it was also amazing. Crispy outside nearly flakey, inside fluffy. Had a great taste and bite. Again, very satisfied. 🤣👍👍”

“Finally tried this resturant and to my surprise was quite good and above average. Will definitely by on our go to indian restaurant when we need our indian food fix. Medium spice is perfect. Biryani was excellent. To add the staff very pleasant and professional. Byob and veggie options avail.”

“Catered chicken and fries for a party - best fried chicken ever, everyone was raving about it. Tacos al pastor and green enchiladas are also amazing. Lovely owners.”

“This is the best frozen yogurt I have ever had!! Always very fresh and creamy… the texture is more like ice cream than yogurt. It never disappoints…great flavors, including a no sugar added option, and assorted toppings, some of which are very healthy like blueberries, strawberries, and walnuts. I have been a customer since it opened15 years ago! The owner, Gary, is super nice and friendly. He recently did a makeover and the place is beautiful! There is comfortable seating inside and outdoor benches if you want to sit out on a nice day. Treating myself to a cup never fails to brighten my day. Stop in… you won’t be sorry!”

“I go here multiple times a week. The owner is always very nice and the place is so inviting. Sometimes I order pickup and sometimes I bring a friend to have coffee and lunch. It’s the greatest spot. Highly recommend the ruby turkey sandwich. I’m very thankful they have gluten free bread. 🥰🥰”

“If you ever need a cake I highly recommend! Super accommodating and so talented!”

“This is my second cake from Abbate and it was a complete success for my daughters graduation party! Excellent quality! And packaged perfect for transport!”

“Excellent Mexican Food! Our family throughly enjoyed their food! We loved it and will definitely go back again.”

“We love this place and order seriously like once a week! We have never had a bad meal! Staff is always nice on the phone or in person when picking up. Delivery time is always reasonable also.”

“The pork roll, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich (served all day) was great, and they let me customize the cheese. The coffee was fantastic. The service was great and every order I saw went through super smoothly.”

“This was our first time at this pizzeria restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised. Service by owner Mike was outstanding due to his wonderful personality. We had the veal franchise and the ziti bolognese and both dishes were really delicious and food was plentiful enough that we took home leftovers. Veal was extremely tender. Highly recommend this byob for a decent casual meal at great prices.”

“The food and service was second to none. The staff very attentive not over bering. A comfy cozy atmosphere. The restaurant is BYOB this is a plus. The portions are perfect size. I can't find enough good to post.”

“We went to Fernandes Matawan for the first time June 1, as recommeded by our son for his birthday. The service, food and atmosphere was beyond exceptional. Best calamari I have in a long time, the Sea Bass and fresh vegtables I ordered was excellent as was the 12 oz. filet and lobster tail my husband ordered. My son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren enjoyed their salmon, clams, lobster and shrimp meal choices. Large portions, we all except my husband and son, needed to bring home what we could not finish. Also the pitcher of white sangrera which was perfect. Hats off to the excellent service and food. Bottom line, the menu prices were a little more than what we expected, but it was worth it, you get what you pay for. My husband and I will be going back!”

“We went ABC hoping for some authentic bagels (they now close at 2pm btw). The bagels were really good (like bagels are supposed to be…dense and chewy not bread shaped into o’s) and the ladies behind the counter could both have been nicer! Worth a visit!! We ate some there and took a dozen to-go too!”

“Great coffee and delicious breakfast/brunch food.”

“Here for NYE. Beautiful crowd and seems very family friendly. Food is guaranteed to be great. We highly recommend the burgers and steaks. Cooked to perfection. We are here with a table of 24.

Vegetarian options: Can accommodate to any diet plan.”

“love the hot honey pepperoni pizza my new favorite 😍”

“Papa Ganache is by far my favorite gluten-free bakery/eatery in NJ. They are so beyond accommodating and the food tastes too good to be real! They did my wedding cake too! Highly recommend.”

“Big Ed’s BBQ is a really great establishment. Amazing food and service. However, I think it should be against restaurants to make their customers pay a 18% gratuity automatically on the customers bill. The customer should choose their prefer tip. This should be illegal!!!”

“Really great food ! Love the vodka sesame pie 🇮🇹💋👍🏻”

“They still make really good food, not great like it used to be. They no longer have table service and the tables, chairs and rug are in disarray. They also doubled down on a weird pink color that leaves me to believe it must have been a clearance color.”

“Been a regular here for years. I know all of the staff, they are very friendly and respect/value their customers. The food is bangin, especially the chicken/tenders. By far the most competitive prices I've found on lava vapes. The owner is very friendly and thoughtful.”

“Great food, ordered the California roll and service was amazing. I tried one of my friends sushi with tuna and it was really spicy. Overall 10/10 experience. Hope to come back here again!”

“Members and Guests Only. Small Space Beer selection is limited. Plenty of Hard Liquor, Decent Prices, Credit Cards accepted. They do well with their fish fries, BBQ's, and other social events. Tell em' Denny sent ya!!”

“Had a slice with sausage and onion love the sauce , pizza wasn’t over powering with cheese was able to taste all the flavors of the sauce , workers very friendly and professional asked me how i liked it 🙂 I will be back”

“Idk about yours, but my favorite beer is cheap here! And they're open later than everyone else in the area. Cool workers too!

Dietary restrictions: Alcohol”

“First time there today , the service is excellent , food was fresh and yummy, love the location and the seating , all tables no booths very roomy , friendly staff , we will be back!”

“Authentic Chinese food at a reasonable price. Water and tea are self-serving. We ordered Sweet & Sour Pork Chop, Seafood Rice Cakes and Mapo Tofu with pork, all were delicious. Will try something different next time.

Parking: Tuesday around 1pm, plenty of parking.”

“Great food awesome lunch specials will be back”

“Milkbox is amazing. A true hidden gem. Their Ceasar chicken wrap is so tasty and juicy and my co-worker gets a buffalo chicken wrap that is delish. I can't wait to try other selections. Their sprinkle cookies are out of this world. Will go back time/time again. Great service.”

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

“What a great place!!! Delicious food, wonderful & friendly staff as well as a clean environment. I eat here often to try everything on the menu! I like how you order through a screen which makes everything super easy and efficient. Wish I took pictures of my food but I was too quick to eat it hahaha best guac in town!”

This place cares about its customers. My husband and I will continue to dine here many times over the years. God bless. 5 stars”

“Asian Fun never disappoints! While my son has his staple Chicken and Broccoli, whenever I try different dishes they are always good. The service is fast and friendly when we go to pick-up.”

“Good spot, nice owner, the food was pretty good, they have a large variety of food, a 20$ buffet, and overall its a good spot whether your coming alone or with your family.”

“Just wanted to shout out our server Liz who was absolutely amazing!! Came to dinner for a birthday with 18 people and she went above and beyond as a server while having other tables along side of our big one!! We will come back to see her soon!!”

“Good ice cream. Friendly service. What’s not to like.”

“The food is very good, always fresh, and never oversalted. NO MSG here! The family who runs this establishment is very kind and accommodating if you alert them to food sensitivities or if you must adhere to a special diet. If you are gluten free your choices may be limited, but there are a good number of options. Extremely clean kitchen.”

“It's a good place to have coffee and relax.”

“the food is made to order can bring your own bottle but we don’t the food totally agrees with hubby he has stomach problems and this food is great will be returning for my wedding anniversary !”

“I used to order delivery from here before I started working in the area. The staff are super friendly with lots of great options, I have their food often and I’ve never had a bad or sub-par experience. It’s always been great and would 10/10 recommend to others.”

“Very good Cantonese cuisine, one of the best in America”

“Delicious! Highly recommend!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bagel Factory Cafe in Matawan is hands down one of the best spots around. The bagels are always fresh, the coffee is perfect, and the whole place has such a welcoming vibe. What really stood out was the amazing service—Ameel took great care of us, making sure everything was exactly how we wanted. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, he made the experience even better. Definitely my go-to cafe from now on!”

“We order subs form here at least twice a month. Subs are always pretty good BUT today I ordered a meatball sub.. All I can say is it was the nastiest meatball sub I ever ate! I’m sure the meatball sub from WaWa is much better. The sub contained a crap load of sauce and mushed meat not even meatballs. The meat tasted like the cheap meat from a can. Every time I think of it I want to vomit 🤮!!!! I normally place online orders but today I went in. They don’t even put paper down while making your sandwich they place the bread on the counter and slide it from one side to the other. I didn’t complain since it looked clean BUT I will Not be ordering from there again. What a waste of $15. I tried giving the rest to my dog but he didn’t even eat it. He put it in his mouth then spit it back out. If a dog won’t eat what does that tell you???! I would really like a refund but reality I know I ain’t going to get one. So I will WARN all those who like meatball subs DO NOT go to Jersey Mikes in Matawan. They truly suck. I can’t get the nasty meat flavor out of my mouth. Smh I hope the cheese steak I picked up for my husband is good......”

“I love the Buffalo Chicken Pizza”
