“We ordered catering for our son’s graduation party yesterday. It was perfection. Everything was delicious, exactly as ordered, well organized and ready to be served/put in sternos to keep warm. All the guests raved about it, and we have leftovers for today! The pricing was also extremely economical! Yum!!!“

“I ordered dragon phoenix, vegetable lo mein, and sesame wonton, and they were all so delicious with the sesame wonton being so flavorful and the jumbo shrimp from the dragon phoenix taste so fresh and the chicken with white meat tastes so juicy and crunchy with great flavor

Vegetarian options: Veg lo mein and mix veg are both really good“

“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“

“Amazing food, view and atmosphere! Darrel and his team are top notch. Highly recommend lunch, dinner or happy hour at this spot!“

“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!“

“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.“

“For some reason I was in the mood for lobster and I never am in the mood for lobster. I ordered the classic lobster roll for $22. I am always astounded about the cost of lobster rolls. Not sure how they stay in business. This was good. Toasted bun and lobster was fresh. Small portion but thats always the case with a lobster roll. Got my fix and would come back. 3.5 stars but rounding up.“

“We just had a bridal shower here and everything was wonderful! The food was delicious! The staff were so accommodating! Highly recommend! Five stars!“

“Great place. A diamond in the rough for sure. Casual and relaxing.“

“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.“

“Great venue and great people to work with.“

“I haven't been inside in quite awhile, but I've had the food recently, & it was just as great as I remembered it!“

“Great food, great vibe, fun location! What more is there?“

“If I could give 10 stars I would! I just had my daughter’s baptism lunch at Fresh and along with every single guest we had I could not be more happy with the food, service,hospitality and accommodations! The food was delicious! So fresh and made with passion. The chef knows what he’s doing. The 2 men that hosted for us were beyond professional, patient and friendly to us and our guests. Every step of the way from planning to finish they were amazing! After we got home I had so many people reaching out to me about how good this place is and how they will definitely be returning for dinner in the near future. Thank you all so much for helping make this day stress free and most importantly SPECIAL!“

“best fried shrimp in the state“

“I had a great experience at The Squire at Branches in West Long Branch. My food was absolutely delicious and came out quickly, exactly when I expected it, which made the whole visit even better. The service was outstanding, and both managers, Stacy and Faye, were amazing—friendly, attentive, and clearly dedicated to making sure guests are happy. Everything from the atmosphere to the quality of the food made this a place I’ll definitely be coming back to and recommending to others.“

“Visited this excellent restaurant for the first time today. Our experience was terrific. The food was delicious, great presentation and the service from our waiter David was outstanding.“

“Absolutely outstanding!! Great atmosphere, great service, and fantastic food from appetizers to entrees to desserts! Have been to the original in Brooklyn many times over the years but this was our first time at Gargiulo’s in Tinton Falls and it did not disappoint. Spoke to Theresa at the end of the night and she was very welcoming and sweet. We will DEFINITELY be back! Not one negative thing to say about the entire experience.“

“What a wonderful restaurant. Upscale atmosphere and service. The food is beyond delicious! I look forward to returning!“

“I know Italian food. I asked AI what was the highest rated Italian restaurant in Long Branch. It gave me Rockafellers.
I knew the moment I tasted the sauce that came with the delicious Calzone that everything was going to be great. It was fresh and delicious.
The pizza was a home run. If I had to guess the pasta is going to be great too.
We'll find out later tonight!
Thank you!
Everything was great from the delivery to the food!“

“Great food and nice place to be“

“My wife and I went to Christines last night, on recommendations from many, to celebrate her birthday. Wow. Met at the door by the owner, Ron. Big personality that was both genuine and welcoming. He and the staff made my wife feel extra special! The food was what I was expecting, given all the reviews from friends, authentic and delicious! Everything from the appetizers, main courses, desert....exceptional. Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend!“

“I used to go there as a kid. My grandfather, Dave Thorson was a founding member from what I was told. He managed a fish meal factory there in the 60s. I still remember the smell. lol“

“Dinner was great. First timers. We had shrimp in garlic appetizer, combo with 1/2 chicken and ribs-pork, rice and fries. And 1/2 chicken with rice and veggies. Everything was of good quality and very delicious. We’d order from you guys again. Thank you for a wonderful dinner!“

“We’ve been going to Illiano’s nearly 36 years. It’s been great since day 1. We usually do takeout and find the pizza, subs and garlic knots to be the best in Monmouth County. When we moved out of town about 3 years ago we tried to find something that was comparable and closer, but that didn’t work out so make the trip back just about every Friday night. We highly recommend them!“
