Had brunch here this past weekend with a group of girls. Our server was so sweet and attentive and got everything right. Inside is clean and cute and nicely decorated. The food was excellent. I highly recommend the burger, and the drinks were perfectly created. Not too strong, but not too weak. Would definitely come back.
Came here for brunch with some friends. They had a DJ playing and the vibes were cool. But the place was pretty empty for 11am. That being said, service was REALLY slow. We waited 20 minutes before someone came to take our drink order and even then, we needed to flag them down. By that time we were able to put in our entire food and drink order. We tried the cinnamon roll for the table and it was really good. Would highly recommend. The drinks came out after the food (even though we ordered them altogether) and I had the morning brew. It was tasty, but a little too milky and sweet for my taste. I ended up getting the chicken sandwich which was a bit dry and not super flavorful. Overall, knocking off two points stars for the really slow service, and the bland chicken. Some of my friends got the fish sandwich which also seemed pretty thin and dry. Another friend got the veggie burrito which she said was flavorless, but the salsa it came with was good. Probably would seek another brunch place over this one next time.
Brunch spot with a cold brew cocktail? Yes - let's try it! Homesick is in a central part of the downtown area and very easy to check out other notable sights (for us) - the brewery, distillery, etc. There was a really good DJ playing during brunch and brought a really nice, high class vibe to the restaurant. The service was a decent once we flagged down a waiter and we got all of our food in a well-spaced out manner. The Morning Brew cocktail is pretty good. Almost like a Vietnamese coffee and takes a good amount of time to finish. It's a great session cocktail. The food we got was good, but not the most flavorful. We would recommend the cinnamon roll and the Mac and Cheese. The entrees were good but could have used some more salt or other seasonings. The burrito did come with an aioli or other type of sauce, which was pretty tasty. For us, this was a good place for the vibe and setting. They also have nice outdoor seating where you can hear the DJ. Good stuff!
Rating again because this place never disappoints. We were here yapping away for about 2.5 hours so over time the service was a little slower for drinks but it was a lovely night out so we didn't mind. I got the GF chicken pot pie again and it was delicious as always. We also tried the Calabrian chile shrimp which were spicy but good nonetheless. Drinks spot on as usual. I love this cute little place.
I love Homesick's happy hour. They have pierogis and oysters for a good price and I believe the martini's are discounted as well. It's a cozy restaurant. We sat at the bar where our bartender was attentive and nice.
Came here on a Sunday morning for brunch around 1pm with my partner. We were able to be sat right away, however, we got the last table so definitely recommend reservations if you have a specific time in mind. Such a wonderful atmosphere with the live jazz band. We got the lemon ricotta pancakes, the veggies breakfast burrito, and a side of mac and cheese. Everything was excellent and would get everything again. Our server was also great. Can't wait to come back here and try their spot next door - Lovesick!
I made reservations here for Saturday at 1:30pm. I don't really think it was needed since they had tables opened but I would still recommend it because I usually see this place very busy and they were having 2 parties when I was there. The outside AND inside is so nice! It's spacious, nice colors, and it was just so cute! First off, they asked if we wanted sparkling or still water. We ordered still. Also, apparently, they sat us at some special table in the restaurant and we got free champagne! That was a great way to start the meal. My husband and I shared the 'Butter Board' which was sweet cream butter, sea salt, citrus zest, fresh herbs, red onion, honey, edible flowers, multigrain and cranberry bread. It was DELICIOUS! They gave us some additional bread for $1 extra. For our entrees, my husband got the 'Crispy Chicken Thigh Sandwich' which was buttermilk fried, hot honey, pickles, Bibb lettuce, spicy ranch, brioche bun. He said he didn't taste the hot honey, just tasted like the regular honey but it was delicious and they did not skimp on the honey. The fries also had great seasoning on them. For my entrée, I got the 'Heirloom Tomato Salad' which was with grilled corn bread, Point Reyes blue cheese, white balsamic-thyme vinaigrette. This, as well, was delicious. I normally don't like cornbread because it's so dry and this was dry but the corn bread was sweet. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Our server was fantastic. She was so friendly, informative and really on top of everything. If I had to give it a con... my con would be the fact they asked for still or sparkling water. I ordered still - since it's usually free - but it was $8. I wish someone told us about the price because we wouldn't have had the water at all. That's my only con.. but I will 100% be back and would recommend.
It's a beautiful restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seatings. The staff was friendly and professional. A bit layback. We had avocado toasts with a fried egg and French toasts with a side bacon. The avocado toasts were wonderful. My husband had it two days in a roll. The French toasts were tasty and the bacon was crispy.
***3 1/2 stars*** My top-tier chum and I stopped here for lunch this past Wednesday on our way down the shore. Despite the fact that 4th of July weekend was kicking off (the Parkway was slowly but surely getting more and more crowded), Asbury was pretty empty. We had our pick of tables inside and out, and opted for sidewalk seating with (my personal preference always) primo canine chum viewing. I'm not sure I've ever experienced this before in a restaurant, but the price points seemed extremely arbitrary, both for drinks and food. I can't imagine that a restaurant wouldn't put considerable time/thought into pricing their menu items, calculating time, cost, etc., and yet. As an example, my chum got a Salty Meg (vodka, grapefruit juice), which was $8. My drink, the Tutu, had an egg white, gin and lavender, was more than twice that at $17. Big jump (and to be fair, the egg white for sure adds some complexity to the process). Same with the food. My chum got the tuna tartare app, which was $22. I got the spaghetti with fried egg, which was a legit entree and almost half the cost at $14. Again, I'm sure there's a rationale for it but the optics were a little odd in our opinion - not necessarily a negative. I liked the spaghetti/fried egg dish - the inclusion of the breadcrumbs and parmigiano gave it almost a high-end Italian breakfast sandwich vibe, which I was not upset about. The tomato conserva wasn't my vibe but it was easy to just scrape that to the side. The Tutu was also tasty; I love egg whites in cocktails, and the lavender complements them well. Smooth and floral. My chum was pretty underwhelmed by her cocktail, which wasn't mixed well but once she stirred it around a bit the taste improved - bit of an unforced error there though. The service was perfectly fine. We were mostly already on vacation mode so we weren't exactly checking our watches (just nervously side-eying the GSP on Google Maps) but everything came out timely and our waitress stopped by regularly to check in. As we were leaving, my chum commented, "This was fine." It was. It could have been better and I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend this place, but it was by no means a bad experience.
It's super cute in here. They had a jazz band playing during brunch. This was my first time going even though recommended by so many people. Our serve was great. I got the blueberry ricotta pancakes. They were very good but definitely have had better. Still 100% recommend.
We visited Homesick twice during our weeklong stay in Asbury Park: first just for drinks, and then for dinner. The drinks are fantastic: well balanced and visually stunning. The food is very good as well. We shared the shrimp cocktail, which came with a delicious homemade cocktail sauce, and then I had the chicken pie and my husband had the veal cutlets. We also shared the roasted carrots. Everything was tasty, and the service was really great.
We decided, spur of the moment, to go to the shore last weekend and wound up in Asbury Park. We had never been and arrived around lunch time. We spotted Homesick, next to Lovesick (its sister wine bar) and decided to try it. We were not disappointed. We immediately saw one item on the menu which caught both of our attention. The Chicken Pot Pie. It's not often you see homemade chicken pot pie on the menu, so we both opted for the dish. It all starts with the crust and this one was as flaky and buttery as I've ever had. The filling of chicken, potatoes, onions and a mix of vegetables and herbs was delicious! It was a great start to our weekend!
Homesick is a perfect spot for a girls day or a pre-dinner hangout! It has beautiful decorations and has a light, airy feel to the place! We sat at the bar area and ordered an avocado toast and tomato heirloom salad along with a "mimi" brunch cocktail. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend this spot if you are in Asbury

This place was GOOOOOD. Honestly blown away by this establishment. Was in town for work & everyone from the area to told me to come down to this area for dinner. Walked around & landed on this place. Such a swanky cool kind of new age hipster but also vintage vibe? Lol No idea! But I sure was digging it! The bartender was super sweet in helping me make a decision for dinner, because I wanted to try it ALL. I folded on the Lemony Shrimp & Bean stew (absolutely spectacular and this is coming from someone that doesn't like being or vegetable type soups) the leeks were so yummy but the shrimp was the star, just look at how huge they were. Sliced Flat Iron - SO JUICY. Such flavor! Literally haven't had any steak til this day that could replicate that flavor of the scallion chimichurri and celery root purée. It has been over a year now since I've been here, and I still CRAVE, I'm talking I have full on dreams about having this place again. Can confirm, I AM Homesick. read more

This is such a charming restaurant with quality homemade food. The chef makes everything from scratch, so they require every group to place their orders for appetizers and entrees together. My group shared the mini lobster rolls, French dip sandwich, and cablarian chile shrimp. My one friend ordered the soup of the day, corn poblano. The appetizers were excellent! We would have liked some bread to share while waiting for our food. For the entrees, we ordered the hamburger and bucatini. Both were cooked to our liking. I loved my bucatini cooked with zucchini and garlic. The cherry on top were the zucchini flowers. This added a nice crunch. Our cocktails were refreshing. My summertime cocktail had cucumber and St. Germain. It was refreshing! Next door to Homesick is Lovesick, an adorable cocktail bar. When down the shore, this is definitely a must try! read more

I came here on my 21st birthday for brunch. We had a big group and not only was the vibe GREAT- live jazz and cute decor - the service somehow made it 10x better. I got the tutu cocktail and it was amazing! Grace, our server, was quick and very attentive with a smile the whole time! Our food came out quickly and it was delicious- I don't usually eat burgers and it was superb! I'll definitely be back soon read more

Very cute and humble atmosphere. They do a top notch happy hour at the bar. For dinner, there's usually a live acoustic act in the corner. Service is always extremely pleasant and attentive. Food was very aesthetically pleasing. Taste was there, but nothing blow away memorable. Butter board appetizer was likely the highlight as I've never seen such an offering. Floral and citrus infused literal board of butter! Very delicate and tasty and came with a variety of breads. Cocktails are nice here but did not feel any kind of buzz. Would still return -- perhaps a romantic date or girls night! read more

My friends and I came here for brunch a few weekends ago and it was a great experience. We went to brunch on the earlier side and thankfully, we didn't have to wait at all for a table. Our waiter was wonderful and helped to walk us through the menu. We ordered a number of things off the menu; the tres leche donut which was delicious, the grilled cheese & tomato bisque, the dressed greens salad, the brunch pie and the salmon lox toast. Everything that we had was very good and filling! The added bonus was that there was a live jazz band playing in the main room of the restaurant and was so lovely to listen to. I'd absolutely come back here again! read more

Came here on a cold Saturday evening. The place was warm and hopping, walked in to live music which I was not expecting but it was a nice surprise! The menu is inconsistent if you are gluten free, some items are marked GF and others are not that may be GF. Waiter was not well versed in which entrees were GF. I came here since I saw they had a GF chicken pot pie option. It did not disappoint. Side dishes were marked GF and the chicken pot pie showed it had a GF option so it didn't make sense that all options weren't labeled to make for easier ordering. My dining partner and I shared the butter board, but adding the GF brioche bun was an extra $4 to the $13 appetizer. Bun was fairly dry. This was my first time trying a butter board so I wasn't sure what to expect. Flavors on the board were really nice, citrus zest, honey, some slivers of red onion. The texture was cold and not easy to spread. Visually it was gorgeous (see pic). Dessert menu not labeled for GF, the ice cream option was most likely GF but everything else was full of gluten: bread pudding, pie, cookie. There was no chocolate ice cream in the banana split so we decided to skip the ice cream. read more
I really enjoyed my meal here. I came on a weekday night and service was very good. It is aesthetically pleasing both inside and outside. The bar is beautiful and very big! We tried the shrimp ceviche app which I would pass on, it did not have much flavor. The drinks are really pretty but expensive. I enjoyed my pierogis and kielbasa. We were told it's the same owners as Porta. They also have a cute bar next door called "Love Sick" that I want to try. read more
We visited Lovesick for a light bite after having a late lunch, and it was an absolute delight. You can tell that everything here is made with love, from the cozy decor to the amazing, fresh food. We tried the Heirloom Tomato Salad (grilled cornbread, Point Reyes blue cheese, white balsamic-thyme vinaigrette) and the Summer Pesto (spaghetti, roasted tomatoes, basil pesto, pine nuts). Both dishes were incredibly flavorful and beautifully presented. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a delicious meal. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place that offers both comfort and quality in every bite. read more
This place is really cute, and they have a pretty good cocktail selection and happy hour deals. Starting at 7pm they had a live musician which was neat. We had a dog with us so we weren't allowed to sit inside but they have some outdoor tables as well. But because we couldn't sit inside, they wouldn't allow us to get the happy hour deal which is only at the bar. The food options are a variety of things for dinner - we ordered a butter board to share, I got the perogies and my friend got the pesto pasta. The food was ok - the bread that came with the butter board was so dry and felt store bought stale. The perogies were good but more the half the dish was just caramelized onions. read more

This place is great! I've been for dinner and brunch now and both were equally as good. This time around I went for brunch and started off with mimosas and the greens. I then split the burger, pancakes and duck quesadilla with 2 other people. Everything was delicious and flavorful. Ended the meal with the s'mores dessert - must try! read more

The vibe was amazing, the food was absolutely delicious. It was fresh, nourishing and healthy and the live band was amazing. We will be back! read more

Had the pleasure of exploring one of ASBURY gems this weekend with my mom, whom like myself is pretty picky; but by the end she was planning another trip to bring the family.... The atmosphere was lovely and very light, bright and simply modern and gave a Greek cavern type vibe which I love. Our server Grace was very pleasant and very knowledgeable of the menu and pairings and we were pretty pleased with the selected items for the most part. For our starters we had the butter board, grit cakes (don't know name) and the zucchini and corn soup. The soup was a fan favorite for my mom and I and had us feeling like we were on the right track. The buttery and savory grit cakes were to die for. I would loveeee to have them with a poached egg and some creamy pesto and fresh burrata for a breakfast but how they came was delicious as well. The only starter we did not like was the butter board.... The description made it seem like it'd be more of a multi butter sampler which would have been amazing. So having expected a choice of a delicious herd infused butter, then separate honey cream type and another; to only get what was close to country crock with flowers sprinkled on... was a definite mark missed. For our main courses, I ordered the flat iron steak which was cooked to absolute perfection of a medium rare. The celery root mash was actually very well balanced with the right texture and seasoning and allowed the steak to take the show along with their version of a chimmichurri sauce (could have had a little more hint or note of vinegar to really add a nice balance). The portion was a perfect amount as well. My mom had the crispy flounder which was exactly as described. A nice white fish with a crispy crust and interesting salsa on top. The also could definitely have used a little kick and more citrus to counter the crispy ness and perfectly season fish but adding in another layer of flavor for sure. I also feel like it could have been pair with a side naturally instead of having to add in if desired. Something light, or even made the salad with black beans to add more of a filling and protein packed element. All in all the service wasn't bad and food left us satisfied. I would say if you're going to visit make sure to schedule a reservation so you have plenty of time to order enjoy and chat as much as you'd like with no feeling of being rushed. read more
