Love this place!! Always an excellent meal. Last night my boyfriend had a blackened pork chop with Murphy sauce and I had Monk fish Francaise. Both absolutely delish!!

Missing half the order the franchese tasted like was soaked in Lysol the veal looked like someone chewed it up and spit it out and then try to get in touch with the owner and they are to busy not caring about the fine residents of Neptune city while they are on vacation only highlight was the sweet heart of a girl who answers the phone and even delivered the missing food but besides her the rest of the experience was terrible

I think the most accurate description of my dining experience here is... unforgettable, but for all the wrong reasons. Ordered the monkfish, which was so chewy I thought I’d mistakenly ordered calamari made out of rubber bands. It also had a fishy flavor that could probably clear a room. The steak bites were... fine. They existed. But the real showstopper was the braised short ribs—so dry, I felt like I should have brought a hydration pack to get through it. And the risotto? I’m pretty sure cardboard would’ve had more flavor and a better texture. The only thing saving this place from a total flop was the waitress, who was lovely and seemed to know we were definitely never coming back.

Restaurant wasn’t busy.

Got sat down at 7:30pm, finally around 8:20ish the server came with an abnormal small pitcher of water for a table of four, and one loaf of bread the size of a hamburger bun for us.

we finally get asked if we wanted anything to drink after being served the piece of bread.

Bread was stale, we only had enough water for half a glass for four people after pouring the whole pitcher….no refills for the rest of the stay as our waiter didnt come back to check on us.

The spaghetti and meatballs weren’t good. Sauce was super watery and the meatballs made me choke a little; as it was dry.

Waited a total of one hour for our check to come.

Y’all would be making a lot more tips if you didn’t let your customers get parched lol

Definitely not coming back as it was a huge waste of our time, and money.

Another great red sauce spot to visit. Il Posto, Neptune, NJ. The scene at the bar was an unexpected bonus. They had a two-piece band playing songs off The River; the vibe is great. I had chicken parmesan and loved it. The cab reserve came recommended by the pro bartender and didn't disappoint. Gonna definitely try their Wednesday Lobster Night w/ family. Highly recommended.

Just ate there yesterday, sat at the bar, very nice service from the bar tender, my buddy and I got the garlic parm wings, and margarita pizza to share, he got the rigatoni Bolognese and I got the cheese stuffed tortellini with pancetta and peas.

The wings were delicious!
The pizza was recommended by the bartender and we loved it.
The tortellini was my favorite out of everything though, I highly recommend this dish!
My friend enjoyed his Bolognese as well.

Midway through our meal, they started to play live music, which was very nice to hear.

I took some pictures of our partially eating meals before finishing them lol! They were all so good! ?
