    Food display
    J F.

    This spot was a great place for food and even sit to talk with another person or get some work done. I was disappointed today at the appearance of the establishment. The colors no longer cover the lack of cleanliness. As most they are also experiencing a price increase. Which is understandable. The lack of cleanliness is not. I previously ignored the irritation of the workers when I would point to an unmarked salad in their display window. I hope they will increase their cleanliness and label their food for ease of ordering soon.

    Sausage egg and cheese bagel
    Kiyah D.

    This is my MUST HAVE when I visit. The bagels are always fresh and my order is always right. A bagel shop probably seems like no big deal when you live in NJ, but when you move away; being able to go into a bagel shop and order a "sausageeggandcheesewithsatpepperketchup" is EVERYTHING. They're always friendly, the place is always clean and it just feels like HOME. I hope they never change

    BURNT ROLL
    Lai H.

    For all the hype bagel boy gets, it is not worth the wait for the service. I placed an order online bc they don't take phone orders. Walk in and watched prob about 15 people order and walk out with their orders. It took 30 minutes to get my order and when I received it the roll was completely BURNT AND BLACK. Are you kidding me?! We have paid extra in the past for bacon and did not receive it, but we tried this again and was sorely disappointed. Paying $20 for two sandwiches is just not worth the hype anymore. Unbelievable.

    First timer . Went on a Sunday morning .. for breakfast .. nicely located .. parking is good . Lots of parking outside .. ambience was ok . Lots of place inside to sit and eat .. They have very good options for breakfast - bagels , sandwiches , eggs , omelette etc.. .. they have many bagel choices - poppy , everything etc .. and lots of cream cheese options . It was crowded : there were 5-7 people helping all customers. Took a longggggg time to even reach to order the breakfast ! Slowwww service .. took us 30-45 mins to order and deliver our breakfast ... Bagel cream cheese was so good. We also ordered omlette . It was average . Have had omlette in other delis and they are also give other stuff like hashbrowns and breads . Overall a good place for breakfast but too slow .

    Avocado Toast
    Natasha H.

    The egg white omelet exceeded my expectations, as the eggs were cooked as requested. However, the avocado was burnt, and there was very little avocado, along with a heavy amount of tomatoes and onions, which were likely used to disguise how burnt it was. It was frustrating to stand there and watch eight people who entered the restaurant after me leave with their food in hand while my omelet sat off to the side. Eventually, I was handed my burnt avocado toast and a slightly warm egg omelet. The service was inconsistent; one staff member greeted me with "Good morning" while the others stared. On a positive note, the place was clean and spacious.

    Breakfast taste so good.

    Bagel sandwich and bagel with scallion cream cheese is absolutely delicious. Great service always

    Jenny T.

    Friendly and efficient staffs making the line flow smoothly and fast. I had everything bagel toasted with scallions cream cheese. Fresh bagel was crispy outside and soft inside, cream cheese was smooth and rich in flavor. The cinnamon raisin bagel was very fresh and delicious, too. The store was bright with cheerful ambiance.

    Plain bagel with butter
    Jeannie C.

    Delicious plain bagel with butter. Their regular coffee was so good. They also have Kona coffee which seems to be very popular. The dining area was very clean and spacious. Definitely recommend.

    Bakari M.

    Definitely was excited to come home and grab a good bagel sandwich. Bagel boy was definitely up to par and is probably one of the better shops in the area. I ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese on an egg bagel and was pretty full after. I noticed that they seemed pretty busy completing other orders (I'm assuming these were online orders). Lastly, There's plenty of room to sit inside.

    Rainbow bagel  @foodtourwithlaur
    lauren v.

    came here for a rainbow bagel & they had rainbow bagels. They bagel was soft yet crispy on the outside as a bagel should be. I believe they offered confetti cream cheese but if they didn't they definitely should! I'll be back if I'm ever in the area again For more good eats around nj follow me on Instagram @foodtourwithlaur

    Debbie F.

    All the hype around the colorful bagel and I'm on board. Yes it's pretty and makes eating your meal fun, but most importantly, the bagel was soft and fresh and the cream cheese was delicious. There is something about a bagel and cream cheese on the East Coast that is just a step above. Happy this spot was in the area I was staying. I'll be recommending this place and visiting again on future trips.

    Yum

It is a welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff and cute simple decor that has a communal feel. The specials menu had some fun and exciting choices for st Patrick's day! There was also a listing for blueberry pierogies which we decided we just had to try. I think the concept is exciting and new- but the inside of the pierogies were only blueberries which weren't very sweet. We thought it could be even better with the addition of a sweetened ricotta, cream cheese, or mascarpone inside to compliment the berries. There was a drizzle of some kind of icing which was tasty and went well but there wasn't enough of it. We ordered our meals from their regular menu. They must have polish roots because pierogies and kielbasa show up on the menu a few times. I saw "pierogie omelet" and was sold. You can tell their pierogies are freshly made and it makes all the difference. I probably wouldn't get the omelet again because it was kind of a lot happening at once, however, next time I go I think I definitely would like to get the pierogi platter they offer because I enjoyed the kielbasa and pierogies so much. My sister got a strawberry arugula salad with crispy chicken. I did not try it but I tried a piece of chicken and it was deliciously crisp. She said everything was really good and the strawberries were perfect and ripe. My mom, who got the protein pancake with fruit on side agreed. My other sister got a tuna wrap which she also enjoyed. I also like that they do a 1/2 tea 1/2 lemonade with your choice of flavor. I got the raspberry and it was delicious - not too sweet but the flavor was there. Our waitress was a gem and we never felt rushed.

    My wife took me here on my birthday and what a find this was! They typically do cooking classes,…read morebut if you come for a meal, you're in for a treat. We sat at the chef's table and had a limited 4 course selection to choose from. It began with a wonderful tuna crudo that was light and almost summery with the strawberries and cucumbers that surprisingly complimented the incredibly flavorful tuna. The spinach gnudi was a small salad that also had a number of components I would have never dreamed to combine, but they all paired nicely with each other. The main course was a lamb that was perfectly cooked, and though I didn't care for the accompaniment of figs, the rest of the dish more than made up for it. To finish off, we ended with asian pear crisp. You don't often see Asian pears incorporated into cooking. However, Asian pears actually being one of my favorite fruits this was welcome surprise and fantastic way to end the evening. Or so it would be, had they not brought out an additional crem bruele for my birthday, which was also excellent. I very very much enjoyed my meal here and wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone. Sitting at the chef's table is also a special treat as I thoroughly enjoyed watching that process that is traditionally kept behind closed doors. I will definitely be making a return trip whether it's for new menu offerings or to try one of their cooking classes.

Regardless, I…read moreremembered absolutely adoring that meal, which had driven me to their sister restaurant, Judy's, earlier this year for another phenomenal experience. So, when I was looking for a place to take my brother for his birthday, a second visit to Heirloom seemed like a fantastic option. I examined the current menus to discover that their Sunday evening menu-of-the-month was "Friendsgiving" themed, meaning it was full of holiday cheer and the Fall flavors both my brother and I adored. I was completely sold on the idea and went to secure a reservation. Unfortunately, seats at the Chef's counter had been booked, but they did offer a second row "back counter", which was a bit higher to enable guests to see over the front row and into the kitchen action. I figured those seats would be more exciting than the regular dining room, so I set us up in that area. I also noted in the reservation that we would be celebrating a birthday during our visit. When we arrived, we were taken to our seats where a "Happy Birthday" postcard and message were waiting for us, which was such a gracious sentiment! We were also quickly greeted by Mike, who watched over our meal in conjunction with Kristin, and they were both beyond lovely and engaging. In addition to our delightful interactions with them, we adored that members of the kitchen staff took turns introducing each course to us; this allowed us to feel like we were truly welcome, breaking the invisible barrier between the back and front of the house. From a beverage perspective, the restaurant offered several bottles of local Alba Vineyards wine and four crafted mocktails. Since I had a decent drive home, I decided to stick with the non-alcoholic selections, trying both of the Palapas, which were their interpretations of sangria. The white version used chamomile tea, peach, spice, and citrus. It was light and fruity with surprising notes of pineapple. The red version utilized mint tea, apple, spice, and citrus. The peppermint went surprisingly well with the apple and spice. Both drinks were delicious and just sweet enough, though I found the white variety more refreshing. I also took a sip of my brother's La Morenita, which contained tamarind, winter spices, and pineapple. I did not love the particular spices used in that mocktail, but found the base otherwise enjoyable. Neither of us tried the remaining spiced cranberry beverage, since it seemed to be the least complex. The Friendsgiving six-course tasting menu blew us away with its creativity and bold flavors. We left full, satisfied, and simply in awe. Our meal included the following items (had to shorten my comments to fit): AMUSE: Apple fritter topped with Comte cheese and shaved truffles --Resembled a cider donut. Super soft and fluffy on the inside with perfect slight crunch on the outside. Aromatic toppings added a complexity that paired well with the sweet bite. FIRST: Roasted Carrot Tartare served on toasted sourdough and topped with pickled grapes, herb aioli, and shaved cured egg yolk--Delicious, but the aioli overpowered the thin layer of carrots. SECOND: Pave (like a less heavy potato gratin that was flash-fried) over butternut squash puree, paired with a smoked turkey rillette and covered with a horseradish foam.--Rich and delicious. Turkey rillette was like a mind game, because it tasted like you were eating real sliced turkey, rather than a thick pate of the meat. THIRD: Cannelloni wrapped around sweet fennel sausage with a creamy pot pie sauce, topped with crispy sage, and drizzled with brown butter.--The dish I thought that I would like the least, as I was not a sausage fan, but it was actually one of my favorites. FOURTH: Cornbread stuffing with cranberry butter--Another unique and heavenly creation. Slices of the bread contained bits of cornbread, carrot cake, and stuffing in the perfect ratios. The smooth, creamy cranberry butter was topped with dried cranberry crumbles for texture and was delicious enough to enjoy on its own. FIFTH: Short Rib with chanterelle duxelle over a parsnip and sunchoke puree, jus, and crispy sunchoke chips--Meat was tender and had notes of cumin. The seasonal Fall vegetables added layers of flavor and texture. It was hearty and comforting. SIXTH: Nutella Mousse pie--WOW! Base of the "pie" was more like a soft chocolate cake topped with a thick layer of decadent Nutella mousse and pieces of coffee-dusted meringue. Served with a creme fraiche ice cream and hazelnut brittle. BONUSES: Pear jelly candies and an insanely good Caramel Apple dessert from the kitchen that included a small cake, burnt cinnamon ice cream, caramelized puff pastry crumble, and miso butterscotch caramel. On top of these tidbits, the staff took a Polaroid of us, which they gave us on the way out, along with a signed copy of the special menu. It was one of the best experiences we had had in a while!

I'm a big fan of Kona coffee, and Turning Point offers it French pressed, which was a huge win for me. It easily serves two, maybe even three cups, and the flavor is outstanding. They also offer other French press flavor options, which is a nice touch. While Kona isn't available by the cup, they do have a house blend, other brews, and a great selection of specialty drinks. The menu is extensive, and honestly, everything sounded delicious--it was hard to choose! We ordered: * Western Omelet with ham, peppers, onions, and cheddar jack (I added spinach), served with wheat toast * The famous Wilbur Skillet -- potatoes topped with crushed bacon, avocado, diced tomato, jack cheese, and two eggs over easy (you can customize how the eggs are cooked), plus an English muffin * Hot cinnamon rolls for the table, topped with warm, sweet cream cheese frosting that they pour right in front of you. Absolutely irresistible--I could not stop eating them! I can't wait to come back and try more items from their menu. Highly recommend!
