I don't know when I'll be back because it's a distance but I sure hope they stay open! See ya Ms.Flo, may be next year... please check them out & get the strawberry shortcake sundae it will turn you into a kid again!”

“OMG. This place is fabulous. I was there for a Pidyon HaBen. They had superb apps, insane Rib-Eye & DelMonico steak and scrumptious desserts, along with open bar, slushes and ices. The staff was attentive, professional and prompt. And just incredible vibes. I would definitely come here again. Just invite me !!”

“Char Q in Lakewood is truly a one-of-a-kind culinary and cultural experience.
The food is exquisite — truly extraordinary.
Our waiter, Bessie, was absolutely amazing — all the way from Albania.
Chef Christian, who speaks Russian thanks to his wife, cooking in a kosher restaurant in New Jersey.
And us — a Russian-Ukrainian Jewish family — enjoying an unforgettable dinner, surrounded by wonderful people.”

“Jennifer was fantastic! She is very friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant. She went over all the new menu items.

“I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. since the day they opened, inconsistent with food and drinks. one day the sliders are medium, the next well done. one day your $16 martini is full, the next it's missing the top inch of the drink. one day the pizza is ok, the next time is soup. last time the service was just ok. tonight she was great.”

“Yet another reason why 502 Bakery is my bakery of choice. Woke-up Saturday morning (4/12/2025) craving crumb coffee cake. Arrived at 502 Bakery a few minutes before 9AM, but when I approached the door the sign said, "Sorry We're Closed!" I did not realize they opened at 9:30AM. So I went back to my vehicle to wait 30-minutes until they officially opened. LOL... Wait?! Yes, the crumb cake is that good! Not more than 2-minutes later, I looked back from my vehicle to see the neon 'OPEN' sign on! Rather than having a customer wait they chose to open early. 502 Bakery's customer service matches the quality of their product. Thanks 502 team! See you again soon. Gerald S.”

“The best coffee shop in our area. The staff are always prompt and friendly. The drink specials are always changing and they are amazing. Great location right by the water in Island Heights. Highly recommended.”
