    I love taking my fam here for breakfast. There's something on the menu for everyone! There's very traditional breakfast options but also fun and unique choices as well. These pictures are from our most recent visit but everything I have ever tried has always been delicious and the portion size has always been substantial! The last few times I came I had some of their pizzas and they were so so incredibly good! I personally love a pizza for breakfast option. I personally had the prosciutto sandwich and it was so fresh and yummy, I didn't finish so I reheated the next day for lunch and it was just as good! I love when I can trust food to be good leftovers! The service is always great, the servers have always been so friendly and offer awesome suggestions. Overall just a really great place worth visiting!

    It was such a cute little surprise. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the outside, it looks like a total hole in the wall, but once you walk in, super cute, nicely decorated, and definitely a vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the berry cream frappe and my boyfriend got a coffee. Both were pretty good! For food, I had the chicken and waffles and he got the bacon, egg, and cheese. Presentation was on point, but the flavor was kind of missing for me. My boyfriend said he's been here before and the pizzettes were really good last time, so maybe that's what I'll try next time. Staff was friendly, and overall it was a nice chill spot. I'd go back.

    Caramel iced latte

    This is such a hidden gem. Benedicts can always be hit or miss but theirs is cooked perfectly. It would be so nice if there was an option to add a third egg as an up charge because the eggs felt a little light compared the other other ingredients. Even still, it was delicious. The iced latte also comes with whipped cream and a drizzle Service is quick and friendly and there is a cute little vibe in the dining room. The front of the building is very unassuming but don't let that fool you.

    A cute homely brunch spot in Sayerville! It appears to be a converted pizzeria to a brunch place, but they still have some pizettes on the menu as well. The decor is very adorable here with rustic taste and half-wall mirrors to make the place feel roomy. The food here is pretty decent, with extra points to the plating. They are definitely heavy on the sauce for both the chicken and waffles and the eggs benedicts. The chicken and waffles though are nice and crispy because they use a bubble waffle base. The eggs benedict was very chopped up for an eggs benedict, but made the sauce drench the dish and become a lil saucey. I loved the omelet though, as it was a fritata style omelette which was nice and moist. The house-baked bread was definitely a highlight, listed as a bread crisp on their menu because it is extra toasted (and not going to lie, a lil burnt on the sides), but it is delicious with a little butter or paired with the omelet on top. I was excited to see a "live performance" aspect of the cafe del notto, which is basically just coffee milk, but they shake up the espresso and milk in front of you. Truly not much to see and for $8 for 1, I would have been pretty upset, but $12 for 2 made me feel a little bit less ripped off. It is delicious, just painfully simple; shaken milk, with a shot of espresso put in. Overall, a cute brunch place to check out!

    Crispy prosciutto sandwich
    Gabriela C.

    I had the crispy prosciutto sandwich. Overall I felt the individual ingredients in the dish were high quality and tasty (the bread, cheese, sauce). I just didn't like that for the "mixed greens" on my sandwich they used romaine. I wasn't really a fan of a poached egg on romaine with olive oil drizzle. I think if it had been arugula it would have been perfect.

    This place it's really small but very nice place. Nice and simple decor. The food was tasty. Service was good. Will return.

    I have been twice and both times everything was just wonderful. Both times our table ordered several dishes and shared so I got to taste various things. From pancakes to french toast, pizzettes to benny bowls and basic chicken fingers with fries, everything was just great. All the ingredients and flavor combinations were top notch and thoughtful. I have been to many local places, some very popular and busy, but lately i have just been wishing I just went to Brunch Box instead.

    I've gone to this restaurant for brunch twice and both times have been great! Everyone loved their orders and the staff was friendly. The food is delicious and so are the drinks! A table next to us brought their own champagne so it seems to be byob as well (not sure if just champagne). It was cold when we were there this past weekend but overall a great place! Will definitely be back

    Food is amazing!!! the BennyBowls are delicious and the French Toast were tasty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the place, it's quiet early in the morning[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and the service was awesome! I definitely am coming back and try everything else on the menu!!

    Uncle Benedetto Bowl
    Mark S.

    Nice way to start your day... Weekend breakfast review.We came in on a Sunday morning about 10:30 or so. I believe that BrunchBox opened not too long ago. It kind of looks like it used to be a pizzeria at one time. Located in a small strip mall on the opposite end of Sayreville and real close to South River. This place is small in the front as you walk in. But opens up for a good amount of tables in the back area. For starters, what else but 2 cappuccinos. They look almost like goblets in size. :) We ordered two breakfast bowls. For her a Gobble Benny that had turkey bacon/turkey sausage, spinach, plus a garlic sauce. I went for the Uncle Benedetto bowl. They look very similar. But this had crispy pancetta, fresh mozzarella/arugula, a lemon hollandaise sauce drizzled with garlic aioli. Service was excellent. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food that you get. Sure beats going to a crowded diner on a weekend. Welcome to the neighborhood.

    Orchard Park is one of the places I think of when a special occasion is coming up, and I find a…read morereason to be here every few months. It has a nice, elevated atmosphere, so you should dress semi-formal. Prices are on par with other upscale restaurants. The food has always been excellent and the service as well, most of the time. You absolutely MUST get the Clothesline Bacon as an appetizer. Make sure you slice some pickle with it and squeeze a little lemon juice on top! The manager urged us to try it that way during one of our visits - we never looked back. Rather than eating in the dining area, we chose to sit at the bar for their Foxy Hour (Happy Hour) offerings. There are plenty of tables surrounding the bar as well. We had the Clothesline Bacon, 6 Oysters, Hipster Fries, Spicy Lobster Mac, and we each got the happy hour burger. Everything tasted great, but the hipster fries were a little greasy and lacked the shishito peppers they had last time. We finished off with the Eclair Trio dessert from the Specials Menu. On two separate occasions we were seated at an awkward table in the back of the restaurant, right near the kitchen service area and door to the outside patio. We weren't thrilled to be there, as there was constant traffic in and out of the kitchen and through the doors. I think they should just do away with those seats, so everyone can have a relaxing dining experience no matter where they're sat. If you've got a special occasion coming it, Orchard Park is worth checking out!

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.

He also really enjoyed the seasonal Berry Cloud Fizz beverage. I ordered the chicken scoop that was absolutely delicious. 2 Crispy chicken breasts topped with yummy bacon jam all on top of a delicious Belgium waffle drizzled with maple mustard syrup. It was not drenched in syrup which was great, the perfect amount of sweet and salty. For our appetizers we ordered the cauli tempura with the sauce in the side as our server Mericis suggested after my concern over the spice level; and I'm glad she mentioned it because one dip into the sauce and it was not for me. She joyfully suggested other sauces (garlic mayo, aji verde & chimichurri) that were delicious but the garlic mayo was my fave. We also got the nori roll which is one of our fave apps here. The sauce drizzled on top really takes it to the next level. For drinks I ordered the seasonal dulce plantain pudding latte -- yum! Loved every bit of it, especially that it wasn't overly sweet. Our server, Mericis was great. Always attentive, patient as I tried to figure out what I wanted to try next after coming for my 3rd time, and overall great vibes. She made our experience an amazing one on top of the delicious food and drinks we had. Will definitely return! Also love they have printed menus now!

SO much more room to breathe. Maria's moved into the old Latin Port space at 87 Central Ave, and they've been in the new location for about two months now. You can actually walk in, have a seat, and not feel like you've accidentally walked into someone's living room. I popped in today for a quick latte to go and went with a hot Coko Loko (that's latte with coconut syrup and a lil' hint of choc). And just when I thought I was done, I got this little surprise at the end: fresh coconut flakes in the final sips. If you're a coconut person, you'll want to try this one!

I was also excited that they moved to a bigger, brighter space.

Come hungry -- the portions are generous and everything tasted fresh and made to order. I highly recommend trying their seasonal tiramisu latte (I seriously would order this everyday if I could) and their Tex-Fast Bowl which was decadently delicious. The drink was creamy with a hint of sweetness and definitely lived up to its name. If you're not a brunch lover, they also have other options like burgers, wraps, house specialties, quesadillas, and much much more! *SERVICE* Staff was friendly and welcoming, though the pace could use some improvement which I'm sure they'll figure out over time as they just recently set up in this space. Overall, Maria's Brunch is a great spot in Metuchen that's definitely worth visiting!
