New American Restaurants near Oceanport, NJ

“Food was better than anticipated and very exciting as you bet on the races while dining. They do not rush you at all they let you have all the time you want. Service was a bit lacking because it was Mothers Day and so busy but she was very sweet so it made up for it. Everyone there was very kind and helpful and we even got a tour and brought down to the Winners circle! Amazing exciting day and we will definitely be doing this again.“

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

“Soul Kitchen is amazing! Our students love working with the great staff and always feel welcome and learn great skills and life lessons.

“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!“

It’s Brazilian! My heart is singing! Great coffee, the food is like home cooked. Loved the cheese bread and you can shop here too! Lovely warm people and so helpful! So we’ll be back while we’re here.“

Highly recommend and we will definitely be back.“

“The Diet Gourmet is by far the best Kosher place to go and enjoy an amazing lunch! The staff is amazing and so friendly and attentive towards all of their customers, knowing most on a first name basis. If your in the Long Branch area i highly recommend checking this place out, you won’t regret it!!

Vegetarian options: Everything here is vegetarian and amazing! I definitely recommend trying the Famous Impossible Burger

Kid-friendliness: Best Kid Menu around out of the kosher restaurants. Always has kids channels on TV

Parking: A huge variety of parking at the Elbron Train Station and infront of the restaurant

Dietary restrictions: So many good diet options like the salads and impossible burgers !“

Many thanks to the wait staff and the chef for a very special and memorable evening, I couldn’t have loved it more.“

“Me and my sister-in-law‘s tried this place after a spa day. What a great choice the atmosphere was great. I love the decor. Our server was super friendly and suggestive. They had so many good choices for lunch. We tried the turkey cranberry melt and chicken salad wrap. We also tried the fried goat cheese balls so delicious. I tried the soup which I wish was a little heartier but was good. we really enjoyed our meal. I definitely recommend giving this place a try.“

“Food is excellent, staff are wonderful!!!“

“If I tell you how wonderful the place, the people, the plates are will you promise not to go? It’s hard enough snagging a reservation without hoards of people trying to book a table after reading justifiably rave reviews. OK, here goes. Agnolotti pasta and sweet potato hush puppies as appetizers to start and oh, what a start it was. Monk fish and a bacon-jam encrusted pork chop, both cooked to perfection, as entrees. Lemon tart and a you-gotta-try-it-once-in-your-life “budino,” for dessert. (Do you know stressed spelled backwards is desserts?) What’s a budino you ask? Adult pudding, whipped by angels, so addictive it must have been created by Satan. Farm to Table, fresh, sustainable, local, tucked away on a side street in Red Bank… and you get to bring your own favorite wine. Don’t go. Don’t tell your friends. Let this gem be all mine.“

“Fabulous atmosphere, our food was perfection. We had margarita, pizza, eggplant, Parm, spaghetti, meatball. San Marzano sauce was fabulous. Would definitely come back again thank you Carly you were a great waitress.“

“Our waiter James was amazing. Very personable. The food was delicious. I can’t wait to go back again“

“I ate here but didn't stay here. I don't know if they have lodging or if they had lodging ages ago. Nice pub with a menu better than what you would expect for a pub and tasty. No 5 star restaurant, but when looking for pub food with a TV in view regardless of where you are seated, this is the place.“

“Very friendly server Hailey. Prompt with all requests. Made it easy to use our pre purchased coupon as a part of a play package. Delicious empanada appetizer and Poke Bowl entree!!!“

“So good! I love the Gyro, they let me order just a few slices and the service is amazing. I often only have cash and they don't make me use door dash ect. Definitely calling tomorrow and ripping even better. It's just Good ?

Kid-friendliness: Mac and cheese rocks.“

“I highly recommend 801 Craft! From the food to the staff to the atmosphere, dining here is a most enjoyable experience. Eating out can be a challenge for me because of my many food sensitivities and I really appreciate the staff and the chef being willing to accommodate me. The cocktails are tasty as well!“

“Stopped at Val's Tavern because we had a 2 hour gap between a wedding and reception. Service was excellent and so was the food. Our server, Gabby, went above and beyond when we needed some Tylenol. HIGHLY recommend Val's!“

“Crashed a private event and it was just my style. Might be stuffy in comparison to the bar around the corner, but otherwise seems like first class classical music and comfy couches for a celebratory drink. Can't comment on the food.
