“Charming seating area. Windows let in lots of light. Looks like a renovated bank building. Enjoyed a pot of tea and gluten-free cookie. Clean restroom. Friendly staff.”

“Excellent food and service! Very friendly staff too!!”

“What a wonderful lunch !! FiFi was warm and courteous . The restaurant was clean and well planned. The hot dogs were great and steaming fresh sauerkraut. The best!!”

“My sister from Dallas & I ate there 3 times out of 6 nights- fabulous food!”

“I live in Asbury and will walk over to OG just to eat here. The food is consistently delicious, the service is great (gentleman behind the counter is super nice), and prices are reasonable. Get the fries they’re fantastic.”

“Most relaxing place to dine.pancakes fantastic. Great coffee. Great people come to eat & relax.”

“Nagles is back! I used to come here often but it's been 8 horrible years after they closed. But it's back and it's beautiful. The place looks just as I remembered it. If they did a lot of renovations, they did a very good job keeping the charm. You'd never know. The staff is amazingly friendly and the place is nice and clean. I ordered a grilled chicken with a side of chips (im staying away from fries) and a coffee. Coffee was superb. Nice dose of chicken with lettuce and tomato. Chips were a wee stale and the chicken was a wee tough. Its not cheap either. All in all, not bad. Its worth the trip here though if only to experience the place. The location is perfect. Just a short walk from the beach and right by all the cool stores.”

“Everything:-) bagels are bomb”

“I recommend Everything. It starts with the greeting from everyone in the shoppe. No matter what you choose you can’t go wrong. Love all the seasonal specials and the every day treats. Breads are also fantastic. If you’re in OG it’s a Must stop”

“I searched for a restaurant in Asbury that offered vegan, gluten free options and came across Reyla’s. I’m so happy I found this gem! I truly appreciate the thought that went in to create these dishes. Most restaurants don’t put much thought into offerings for people with dietary restrictions. There was something for everyone in our party. Every dish is thoughtfully crafted with an amazing flavor profile and presentation. We all loved each dish including dessert. Jules was our delightful server who was attentive, professional and great at her job.”

“The fresh ingredients, the unique flavors, the spice-level made-to-order and the hospitality make this one of New Jersey's best restaurants!”

“Living in Point Pleasant means having an endless lineup of incredible coastal spots right in our backyard, but Red’s Lobster Pot is the one place I will never stop raving about.
It completely captures that old-school, local fishing village charm. Sitting on the deck right along the Manasquan Inlet while the boats come in sets a scene that you just can’t replicate. It’s laid-back, welcoming, and feels like quintessential Point Pleasant.
The food level here is unmatched. You can taste the absolute freshness in every dish—it’s pure dock-to-table quality. Whether you’re diving into a steamed lobster or whatever special they’ve pulled in that day (my personal go-to order), the kitchen lets the quality of the seafood shine without overcomplicating things.
What truly sets Red’s apart, though, is the team. The service is consistently sharp, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. In a town packed with great dining, Red's is the one spot that simply gets it right every single time.”

“During our short stay in the area, we chose to dine here as it was one of the few restaurants open on a Monday. We had an excellent meal, with starter and main course which were delicious. The staff were friendly, helpful and very caring towards my elderly mother. Thank you in particular to Adam for his help with organising the taxi for us .”

“Great dinner as response service class act! Loved appetizers and filet and shrimp special excellent”

“My wife and I had a wonderful lunch at Prime 13. The steaks were cooked perfectly and a very nice size for a lunch entree. Looking forward to going back for dinner. The tomahawk steaks looked absolutely delicious. After lunch we walked across the street to their butcher shop and purchased an incredible double cut pork chop. Just cooked that on my grill and it was fantastic!”

“The food was great, the atmosphere was excellent. Next time I'm back east, I'll be eating here again.”

“Delicious meal from start to finish! Don’t skip dessert ?”

“Such a great experience! Loved the delicious food choices and the service and presentation was top notch!! I highly recommend it!!”

“Excellent food, service and ambiance. Kristin was amazing!”

“My family wanted indian after apple picking and we couldn’t find a place until I looked up Indian and found them. It said 5 stars and the ratings were not wrong. This restaurant was absolutely amazing. The food was excellent and there were so many choices. All of the food was worth it. I’ve been to many Indian restaurants and this place is in my top 3. The owner is such an amazing, hardworking, and sweet woman. She told us her story about for 20 years she’s wanted to have a restaurant yet she took the time to support and take care of her kids. It was heartwarming. She also told us a story of a father and a daughter who were starving and came to the door after close hoping they didn’t close yet. The chefs left, but she didn’t want them hungry. She still let them in and she cooked dinner for them and didn’t let them pay. It was for free. She expresses how being able to give food is a blessing and the biggest reward is being able to give food for people in need and feeding the people. She deserves this restaurant. Not only is she an amazing woman, but the bigger plus is the food is absolutely amazing. The naan, aloo papri chaat, chicken tikka masala, lamb rogan josh, lamb tikka masala, paneer tikka masala. All of it was amazing and so flavorful. For the spice levels my brother and I got medium and my parents got medium plus and the spice levels were perfect.”

“Ate here (Wall)on Feb 15, got the Hornets Nest, awesome! Corn bread and honey butter awesome! Getting the banana pudding to go. Will definitely come back. Girl at the front was friendly and helpful, all I could ask for. That's important to me because at Dave's hot chicken they act like the customer is annoying. Screw Dave's, this is My new place!”

“I have been going to Ada’s for probably close to a decade if not longer. I am familiar with Ethiopian cuisine and she truly delivers every time. While I can’t speak to the other cuisines I have learned over time that her heart is in every dish. The doro wot is top! (Well it all is). The AP location is lovely. I can’t wait to go back, and that is coming from a Californian.”

“Wonderful, friendly owners! Coffee is delicious and the greek baked goods/desserts are fantastic! Bonus... you can hone your greek language skills 🩵”

“Very friendly staff very good food priced right”

“What a great time! I'm not sure why some reviews say ride staff. I didn't see that at all. Tables are a little toght but not that bad. Service was exceptional and they have a TON of gluten free food. Save room for dessert. Only thing is go early or you'll be waiting even though you have reservations and BYOB. Can't wait to go back!”

“Came into town for a wedding and stopped in foe lunch. Great service and food! Jack recommended the chicken kebab and it was spot on: tender, juicy, and well seasoned. Coupled with the fluffy rice and sautee vegetables, it was a great dish. The ground lamb pide was delish topped with the fresh parsley, red onion and tomato. Would absolutely return for another meal.”

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

“Was lucky to snag a chef's counter reservation on Friday. The service and food was amazing. We had the latke and pork chop paired with a really lovely wine. We loved the Harry's bar so much that we returned the next night for cocktails and snacks.”

“I can’t thank the staff at B2 bistro point pleasant for making my daughters wedding shower absolutely perfect. The service attention to detail food and bar service was exceptional! Samantha the coordinator was amazing!!!”

“I was there last night for the first time. The atmosphere was very relaxing and spotlessly clean. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. The food was excellent and very nice size portions. I will be putting this on my go to restaurant list.”
