“Awesome terrific food no doubt 100pct. People like Soria are the best in the business..but but but Jesus Mary&Joseph omg when u call there and whoever might pickup the phone all you hear is an enormous background noise like I'm in Las Vegas. That must stop. Not at all professional not in the least. Move the woman who answers the phone to a separate non loud room. Not close to acceptable. I couldn't hear myself placing my order“

“I never leave 5 star reviews but Cole’s has terrific service and delicious food! We came for lunch at 3pm - and it’s hard to find decent restaurant food during lunch hours so we weren’t expecting much, but we enjoyed everything! The baked clams and fried calamari were crispy and my filet of sole was delicious!

Our waitress was nice, as well as the rest of the crew who chatted with us. Will definitely dine here again!“

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.“

“Delicious food will be back“

“Kudos go out to the Marina Cafe for doing Thanksgiving up right! No wonder the restaurant was packed today. A wide variety of plates to choose from today, making it hard to decide. We went with the Turkey Dinner and it was perfect. What a tender bird, roasted perfectly. The tiramisu at the end was the cherry on the cake. Best I ever had! I know sometimes it's hit or miss when you go out to eat on a holiday! Not the case at the Marina Cafe! And of course, the view can't be beat! ? — at Marina Cafe.“

“This place is a 10 out of 10. Every time I go the food is consistently great. The service is excellent and they make you feel special when you let them know the reason you are celebrating.

I aways get the Filet Mignon - perfectly cooked and the mashed potatoes are amazing! They have the best mashed potatoes I've ever had.“

“Our Wedding Reception was at Armory 17 years ago! We go back every year on our anniversary! And other times as well. Food is always good. Love the Rodizio! And in good weather, enjoying the delicious food outside, with sangria, is wonderful! Highly recommend it!!“

“I was here when they first opened. it was not really "for me". Recently tried it again and loved it. I am vegetarian and my friend is vegan. we found options. Really enjoyed the eggplant sandwich. Would love more options (saw on one of the burger challenges a portobello on a burger, so loose the beef and just do the portobello) then I would definitely be there more often. Plan to check out the events that they have in the winter. So nice to have a quality and nice place locally to go out to at night.“

“Place has great food and very friendly service, the portions are big and the prices are good they also give free samples from time to time which is unheard of these days and they have mind twisting games to play if you want to feel dumb. I'm a regular now and would recommend this place to anyone, actually I don't want to recommend it because I want it all to myself 😜“

“Went during the week and place was not too busy. Parking available in nearby waterside lot. Waitress was friendly and attentive, menu food and drinks with lots of options. Service was quick and portions generous. Mahi Tacos with fries was delicious.“

“It would be easy to overlook this place. It’s buried way in the back of a strip mall. The interior ambience isn’t anything to brag about, either. Yet it is a true gem with amazing food at good prices and excellent service. My wife and I each ordered pizzas. She got the 12” Chicken Pesto and I ordered the 12” Meat Lover’s. Both came out promptly. It was amazing, the best pizza I’ve had in years. I can’t say too many good things about it. Everything was in perfect harmony, a symphony of umami and cheese. Meatballs, sausage, bacon. It had it all. Each bite a delight. My wife also loved her pizza. We stopped in on a Monday on the way up north for a show. There were a few tables occupied but I would imagine it probably gets busy on weekends. Even so, I would make a point of stopping in here again next time I’m passing through the area at dinner time.“

“First time here and great experience! Outdoor dining only. Food is unbelievably fresh and tasty! The porta potties are upgraded bathrooms and surprisingly clean. Off street parking but not bad. Outdoor patio is going to be extended over the dunes for 2025. Can't wait to go back next summer!“

“good food. I like the outdoor dinning. drinks we good as well. will be back“

“Absolutely love coming here! Every meal is done to perfection using the highest grade products. The boom of flavors takes you away with every bite. Highly recommend for a fun date night out when you don’t know what you want and the chef just feeds you.“

“Thought this was an American diner don’t know why but glad I came in. The smell had me at the front door. So I had the Mangu con los 3 golpes, which is fried salami fried,cheese, and eggs with smashed plantain . All delicious. The coffee had a home feel to it and the beef and steak empanadas to accompany it were good. Definitely coming back to taste all the other dishes here.“

“I love this place!! Definitely recommend to everyone!!“

“My family and I order take out from here all the time and let me tell you, they’re consistent. The food is always delicious and fresh, and the portions for the price are unmatched. Our favorite thing to get is the poke bowl combo with a sushi roll. This place just became our go to dinner spot when we’re hungry and too lazy to cook. Definitely recommend!“

“This restaurant Annaporni in manalpan was very good, samber, dosa, utthapam and vedas were excellent. I would go back again. Recommend this place for South Indian cuisine. Did not try their biryani’s but I am sure they are equally good.“

While eating I was attended to no mater how busy she was with others and the servers. Michelle the bartender I greatly appreciate your excellent service, friendliness and smiling face. I will be back time and time again!“

“This restaurant is absolutely amazing! I hosted my bridal shower in their banquet room, and it exceeded all expectations. The room is stunning—beautifully renovated, bright, modern, and impeccably clean. The service was excellent; the staff was attentive and professional, making the event run smoothly. While the food was good (though not exceptional), the overall experience was fantastic. If you’re planning a special event, this place is a perfect choice!“
