“I visited The Herd Juicery and was totally impressed. They have refreshing fruit bowls and juices, and they serve hot meals that are gluten-free and plant-based. For anyone who has celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's nice not having to worry about gluten cross contamination. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Even my husband loved his bowl and felt full afterwards without needing to take a nap. The smoothie bowls were a perfect guilt free desert!“

“We were looking for a vegan restaurant to stop at about halfway through a drive from Bergen County to a shore point and found this place on Happy Cow. It did not disappoint! Food was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive, and the portions were large. We ordered the mac & cheese with coconut bacon and the Reuben sandwich. Although we were full we ordered two desserts to go because they looked so delicious . We ate them later on at home and they were delicious as well! We got the slutty brownie and the chocolate chip cookie. We will definitely visit again when we are in the area.“

“Wonderful place. Cozy and delicious. Like Europe.“

“Sugar bakeshop provided the most beautiful baby shower cake for my daughters baby shower at Half moon point grill. Not only was it delicious, it was made with so much attention to the theme. Take a look at the photo, it’s absolutely gorgeous. Five stars, cake was fresh and moist and delicious. Great job, thank you. Update ; Sugar bake shop closed and new people took over the space. They did custom sugar cookies and baptism cake delivered to venue . The cookies were beautiful and cake delicious.“

“Really good food and great staff. Place was clean and accommodating. Yolo French roast was heaven. 🥵“

“I am leaving a production catering review. My Kitchen Witch provided catering to a large production crew and security where I work (a large historical building on Wall Street). I couldn't believe how quick and professional that My Kitchen Witch was in set-up, the meals, and the breakdown of their service. The food was excellent, especially the pork carnitas and Mexican street corn! I definitely highly recommend and would love to head to their cafe in Monmouth Beach, New Jersey!“

“Amazingly delicious food. Friendly service“

“Stopped by Papa Ganache in Manasquan and didn’t realize it was a vegan bakery until we got there. I ordered the cake roll, s’mores bar, and an Americano. Everything was delicious! The flavors were really good, and even though the texture isn’t quite like a non-vegan baked good, the taste totally made up for it.“

“This is the best bakery. My family and I have been coming here since the 80s, and you can't find better cakes anywhere. Their baked goods are consistently delicious and so incredibly pretty. (Our favorite is the cake in the shape of a hamburger! Amazing!) Their almond macaroons are the best I've ever had. What a wonderful place.“

“If you are looking for a custom cake that looks amazing and tastes delicious, I highly recommend Cups & Cakes in Rumson. Denise and her team created a wonderful cake for our daughter with her college logo/High School grad. Everybody loved it! They go above and beyond to make your vision a reality! Thanks, Denise!“

“I have had these Bundt cakes for many occasions and they are always delicious. The staff at the store is always pleasant and polite. The store is so cute and always clean and organized. Thank you making our events so special 😍“

“Wonderful place with great and different food combinations in their omelets, eggs, and sandwiches. Didn’t get to taste the pancakes, that looked amazing ! Love this place 😍“

“I was shocked to walk in and see only a few tables taken. The ambience in here is wonderful. Lighting is not too dark or too bright, and although small it didn’t feel crowded. Starting with the menu options, wonderful selection of vegan, gf, and special diet. Everything is made fresh so modifications were not a problem. Besides the delicious food, the best part was the waitress!! By the end of the night, we felt like family and she even snapped a bunch of photos for us by Santa 🎅 . We had 1 child with us, who usually won’t even look at the staff, well he ordered his own meal and customized it to his liking. She was so patient and kind. My father thought she was an owner because of how much knowledge of the place she had and shared her love of Elli’s and history. I ordered the pineapple fried rice with chicken and shrimp, served IN a halved pineapple! Wow!! OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS! Everyone’s dinner was fantastic!! The child even tried calamari for the first time and loved it! To sum it up and not ramble on forever, this is an easy top 5 restaurant in ALL of New Jersey!! Run“

“We were there on Monday of Labor Day Weekend and the staff and the place was amazing! You can imagine the rush when you go to a place like that on Labor Day weekend, add on top of that exhausted parents and over stimulated kids and it’s a recipe for disaster. But they were so patient and amazing and considerate and helpful when we were there. The portions are insane. The cookies are beyond amazing, still fresh 3 days later! And you’re on the beach. What more could you ask for? I’ll def be back!“

“I have been wanting to try Eat Clean Bro for a long time, so now that they're at my local ShopRite I have, and they did not disappoint. Jamie and his team work hard and it shows in every aspect of his meals. Keep it up BRO!“

“Food is excellent. There is something on the menu for everyone. Very fresh ingredients and healthy options to choose from. All seem to be farm to table, made in house. Great atmosphere. Staff is attentive and polite. We will be back!“

“Absolutely loved this place from Soup to nuts! Food delicious , atmosphere lovely. And service outstanding!! Loved server, Teresa -(teacher by day). Wonderful place!“

“I stopped into Planet of the Crepes on Friday, 11/15/25. I ordered the Romeo and Juliet crepe and an Aloha Sunrise smoothie.

The crepe was fantastic—thin with slightly crisp edges and a soft, buttery center. It was packed with fresh strawberries and banana, and the warm Nutella melted into everything so every bite was rich, chocolatey, and fruity without feeling too heavy.

The Aloha Sunrise smoothie (banana and pineapple) tasted super fresh, like a little tropical vacation in a cup. It was thick, cold, and creamy, with the pineapple giving it a bright tang and the banana smoothing everything out.

Service was friendly and the whole place has a fun, playful vibe—like somewhere Cornelius from Planet of the Apes would open if he decided to run a cozy little snack spot instead of a lab. Overall, Planet of the Crepes is definitely a place I’d come back to for a sweet treat and smoothie fix.“

“large cheese pizza 🍕 is the way to go.“

“My wife and I had the 4 course dinner. Food was very good. We started with the Bacon and Brie Cheese Fondue. Pretzel bread was extremely good. For entrees, my wife had the land and sea, I had the steak. Everything came out good. I enjoyed cooking my own food at table. Everything came out good. We finished with cookie and cream fondue. This was very good too. Even dipped a little of the chocolate into my coffee for an enhanced taste. Our server was very good.“

“Food is fantastic! Lots of artisan creations on super delicious bread! We are not vegan or even vegetarian but grab a bite here everytime we are in Asbury Park. Never disappointed!“

“Had the Tour of Italy. Chicken Parm was a 10/10. Fettuccine Alfredo was a 9/10. Meat Lasagna 9/10. Pasta Fajoli Soup 8/10. Could have had more fettuccine alfredo, the serving size was a bit small for that, which I was surprised because it's only pasta. However, everything was hot and very fresh. Soup or salad is unlimited, as well as breadsticks, with the regular dinner entree. Drinks are unlimited refills. Pay right at the table with your card on the tablet and get a printed receipt. Great, attentive service. Would highly recommend. It was $49.00 with tax for 2 Lemonades ($3.65 each), spaghetti and meatballs ($17 approx.), Tour of Italy ($22 approx.) + Tip. Definitely worth it. However as a tip, I would say skip the more expensive Tour of Italy and just get one large entree.“

“Good place to dine with your other half“

“Amazing dining experience and even found something I could eat being a picky eater…“
