This place wasn’t worth all of the hype, in our opinion. We came here late one night because we were starving and it seemed to be the only restaurant with a full menu after 10 pm. We’ve heard they’re known for their various grilled cheeses, but we tried to stick with a dinner that had … More Kim Marie’s Eat & Drink Away – Asbury Park, New Jersey
Asbury Park really hit the loteria with the expansion of Bond Street and the newly developed complex. In addition to the two new restaurants (Loteria and Capitoline), there is a whole underground bar/hangout area (pumped up with air conditioning) that we’re just so ready to take advantage of when we go out again! Loteria … More Lotería – Asbury Park, New Jersey
In Monmouth County, Rook is the new Starbucks. People of all ages flock to the various locations because we just cannot get enough of their innovative coffee styles. The main difference between Rook and other coffee shops, like Starbucks, is the number of options on the menu. There aren’t many! It’s perfect! There are about … More Rook Coffee – Monmouth County, New Jersey
#ChefNattyB often reminds me that I too frequently use the phrase “That was the best _____ (food item) I’ve ever had!” I guess it is true. I am easily impressed. If you don’t cook my meat above medium rare and if you leave my taste buds overflowing with flavor, I most likely will give you … More Greekamolé – Shrewsbury, New Jersey

They … More Asahi Hibachi Steak House & Sushi – Manasquan, New Jersey
We’ve attempted to brunch at Cardinal Provisions for a few weeks now, but there was always a line longer than we were willing to wait, considering after Crossfit we are all ravenous vultures. This time our wait flew by since we brought a snack, popped in the spot across the street for coffee, and were … More Cardinal Provisions – Asbury Park, New Jersey

Our first impression of Skratch, was that it was reminiscent of the previous restaurants that once occupied the space. It had a similar layout and comparable tables, but more of an artsy ambience, I suppose. Just a couple of months ago, it was Redemption. Before that, it was Bank on Mattison. Before that, it was … More Skratch – Asbury Park, New Jersey
We were happy to find out about this Vietnamese restaurant opening up nearby because we had been craving the flavors ever since we first tried it in Vermont about two years ago. We ordered Pho (prounced “Phuh”), some cold veggie shrimp rolls wrapped in rice paper, and an interesting combination of meats, veggies, and a … More Pho Tastic – Brick, New Jersey
