“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Soul Kitchen is amazing! Our students love working with the great staff and always feel welcome and learn great skills and life lessons. The student favorite part of the soul Kitchen experience is of course the delicious food made by Chef Emily and her staff. The Matawan Regional staff and students want to thank Bon Jovi and all his supporters for a great experience and relationship!“

“I came in for The Big Meal Deal the other night. I was seated in no time at all with a great view of the big screen TV. Minutes later a young lady named Maddy came over and introduced herself and asked if I would like to order a beverage. I ordered my beverage and my meal at the same time . Maddy then inquired if I would be interested in an appetizer. I do like buffalo wings so I ordered them as a starter. My beverage was delivered to my table very quickly by Maddy. She returned with the buffalo wings at almost an unbelievable short wait, I was offered ranch and bleu cheese for dipping and wet naps and napkins for my hands. To my surprise my bacon cheese burger came out exactly as ordered medium rare. (Nice Tender And Juicy) I expect to return to the Middletown Applebee`s in the very near future. I will be asking to be seated in Maddy`s section and I suggest you do the same. Maddy is very professional and treats you with a fun, friendly, attentive and respectful personality !!!“

“breakfast, lunch, or dinner... they have the best sandwiches at the most reasonable prices around“

“Located near the beach. (Busy 4th of July weekend. A Saturday. Parking is difficult. There’s a public parking garage for $40. What a ripoff from the town. Very little street parking. There was a lot charging $30 so we did that. But still. Well, that’s the jersey shore.) The parking has nothing to do with the quality of the restaurant. I’m just noting parking factors 😉
So now the food …. There aren’t entrees apparently Saturday and Sunday. But Mon - Fri apparently there is. On Weekends It’s burgers and things. There were several items they didn’t have such as the lamb pops. We were a party of 5. We truly had enough food. Enjoyed the drinks such as beer, shots, martinis. A French martini, lychee martini etc. I’m a vegetarian and there was a lot for me. We ordered a charcuterie board to share. It was a great time ! I highly recommend it. The staff is great.“

“What a wonderful addition to Red Bank!!! Will definitely be back to try other menu items. Hope I can stop myself from ordering the Pineapple Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. 😬“

“Everything was fantastic as usual. Love going there and love the BYOB.“

“Such a lovely, welcoming dining experience. The food is amazing, as is the chef. His specials were made with love and some of the best meals we have ever had. Could not give a higher recommendation.“

“The breakfast there was amazing and the bacon pancakes are to die for. That’s how good they were. That was the breakfast my family had“

“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!“

“I always enjoy the sunset diner ever since I use to go out with the leauge after bowling and recently when I had my big sister in jersey for a weekend I took her there after bowling we had lunch together this place brings people and family together with excellent service and great food“

“I always order the Joey sandwich because it is always delicious. I love the ambiance. It is small but that is why I love that they take reservations. I have been in the past only for lunch and will say I have really enjoyed both times of day. Perfect place for a summer evening especially.“

“Amazing food, view and atmosphere! Darrel and his team are top notch. Highly recommend lunch, dinner or happy hour at this spot!“

“Awesome food! My Maui Sliders were the BEST! Tater Tots with Cheese were so good as well!“

“Great food, drinks and great service. great atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Went there with a party of 11. Everyone ordered something different and everyone's meal was excellent. And, the staff was extremely friendly and made everyone feel welcome. Wonderful experience.“

“I went to the Robinson Ale House on June 29, 2024. Service was excellent. The waitress was wonderful. My husband and I had lunch. I had a T-bone steak special , he had meatloaf. They were excellent. We had key lime pie for dessert. Really good too. We were seated outside on the side because we needed shade. Planning another trip in August. I can’t wait to try the Drunken Clams this time if it’s still on their menu. I hope I get the same waitress. If they still have the T-bone on their daily special I recommend you get that. I had mine medium rare. Quite pricey but well worth it. The rest of the menu is moderately priced. Good generous sized portions. Definitely recommend. 5 stars“

“Stayed overnight for a one day work trip. After a 51/2 hour drive the last thing I wanted to do was drive anywhere for dinner ( didn’t want food in take out containers either) sat at the bar, had a Caesar salad and pasta primavera, added salmon.
The salmon was perfectly cooked as ordered ( medium rare) and it was excellent! A bit pricey, but excellent food and service!“

“Visited this excellent restaurant for the first time today. Our experience was terrific. The food was delicious, great presentation and the service from our waiter David was outstanding.“

“Go there every time we are at sandy hook great food snd service“

“Service was absolutely horrible. Had to walk out of diner. Waitress wouldn't bring menus or coffee to us even after asking 3 times. There 22 min with no service. Waitress said they only do one customer at a time. Terrible place don't go there“

“Nothing fancy, but excellent food and service with a smile …. One of my favorites.“

“Had the Tricolore Salad with grilled shrimp today and it was DELICOUS!!!! Dad has the poke bowl and loved it. Service and atmosphere were great!“

“I had a really long day and actually wasn't feeling going put to dinner. Great experience, great staff, fantastic food. For us it was kid friendly and my children were becoming buddies with everyone. we will certainly be back with the whole family!“

“food was great. service the best. ambience pleasant loved this place.“

“Solid pub/bar fare. You can't really go wrong with anything here, it's all just pretty damn good, but won't blow you away either. Let's be honest, you aren't walking into this place looking for a Michelin star quality meal, you want some wings, maybe a burger, and a few beers and yeah, you're gonna be very satisfied with what you get. 👍“

“We love the Oyster Point Hotel! The bartenders and servers are awesome.. couldn’t be nicer!! But… we miss the wasabi snacks!“

“my husband and I have been coming to mjs for years whether it's for a lunch date or dinner with our kids MJS never disappoints. the food is always on point, no matter what we get it is always delicious. a few top favorites chicken Italiano sandwich, their homemade thousand island dressing for salads is out of this world, french dip is the best i've ever had. ahi tuna app to dye for! if ur lucky enough to get Emma as your server or Bartender you will not be disappointed she is always so personable attentive knows the menu really well and makes a mean expresso martini! she treats our kids like gold and keeps them entertained. Mjs is a well oiled machine run by the best manager I've ever seen. Dyan's attention to detail and making the place feel so welcoming and having everything that comes out of the kitchen on point she makes sure the servers and bartenders are very well trained. if she's there working she is always there greeting the guests and helping the staff make sure every guest has an amazing experience.She will also help you throw a sweet party and works with you to keep the price within your budget while giving you the best bang for your buck. she does an amazing job transforming the dining area into a great party space. I've had my son's christening, baby shower, birthday parties here in the dining room each time Dyan has gone above and beyond making sure everything was perfect. whether you are considering having a party or going to dinner or lunch do not pass MJS in Middletown up you will not regret it. & if you want a fun night out- Monday night bingo is always a hit or looking for something to do during NFL Sunday game day head to mjs it is an amazing atmosphere and great specials!“

“We always have great service and the bar style food has been yummy…thanks Big Rob at the Ocean NJ location tonight for a great night YOU ROCK!“

“My husband and I had breakfast here yesterday. It was our first time at Rise n Shine and we loved it!!! Great food and service. Our new favorite restaurant.“

“Tonight we met friends at Navoo! We sat at the bar and Glen was so welcoming and attentive!!! We enjoyed our cocktails ordered dinner which was terrific and Michael the chef manager who was absolutely terrific!!! Thank you Richard for this amazing team who made our evening with friends great!!!“

“I am a vegan, and although they had an Impossible burger on their menu, it would have to be served on a plate because they did not offer dairy-free rolls or bread. I find it ridiculous given the large variety of meat, seafood, and cheese-based items they offered, that they could not provide a single dairy-free roll or bread. Most breads and rolls are vegan,, yet the restaurant only served brioche rolls which are not. I wound up ordering a simple salad and 2 side dishes (sauteed spinach and onion rings). What I did receive was plentiful and delicious, I know people usually roll their eyes about vegans, but the reason I do not eat dairy - besides the horrible living conditions (factory farms) where most animals are raised, is that the males (chicks and calves) born into the dairy industry are usually killed immediately after birth. Males have no purpose in the dairy industry so are disposed of.“

“Meghan when above and beyond for us we came here as a family of five with a 6-month-old and a 4-year-old and she couldn't have been better. Thank you so much for the amazing service the food was incredible and we had so much fun what a beautiful and fun spot will definitely be there again can't wait to see you again Meghan!“

“Fun place to watch sports. If you are not a fan of loud places then this is not your spot. Recommend take out. My husbands burger was very good. Tasted fresh and delicious. The black bean patty was just okay. Could have been cooked better in the middle but was decent. The French fries are the best. Always a good time. Crispy and flavorful!“

“First time to the restaurant last night and we loved everything! Had pork dumplings, spaghetti with clams and the crab cakes. Great service too! We will be back 😀👍🏼“

“Fun and bright retro diner atmosphere. Food was very good- burger and salad with grilled chicken. As a salad afficionado, I doubted a diner could pull it off well. Chicken was tasty, moist and served on a skewer and fried goat cheese was an unexpected bonus. The only negative was that bowling had been advertised online for our Valentine's Day date but the waitress said marketing had posted the event in error. Two other disappointed couples arrived to the diner asking for the same.“

“This restaurant hits all the high notes. The view is awesome, service is friendly and attentive. The food is well prepared and generous with the drinks, seafood, and corned beef entrees that we had. Seafood chowder was very good. Definitely value without compromise.“

“Outside dining on a beautiful day. We had a variety of items from the breakfast section, app section and lunch section. Everything was delicious and fresh. Including tge iced tea.

Dietary restrictions: Variety of GF options.“

“Don’t order anything with grilled chicken, way too spicy and dried out! Their egg dishes are very good.“

“Food was good! Service great!“
