They come with whipped ricotta and crostini. Each bite was nice and tender, super savory and melt in your mouth. Their honey mustard chicken wrap was a perfect harmony of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. With the different textures, it gave a nice crunch. Perfect item for takeout for a work lunch! Peel is always creating speciality pizzas to try, so we tried the Bombshell pizza (April 2025)! This lives up to its name - it is fiery, oozing with passion, and an explosion of bold toppings (fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, Calabrian chili, hot cherry peppers). And of course, you can never go wrong with the vodka rigatoni. Their pasta was al Dente and the sauce was rich and creamy with just the right amount of heat. So comforting and irresistibly satisfying! We polished off the night with a yummy little brownie sundae. This satisfied our sweet tooth and was the perfect serving size after indulging in all these carbs. Peel is the ultimate comfort food spot. Whether you're dining in or taking it to go, this is a must try spot down the shore!

I had shrimp parmagianio over linguine, my one friend had sausage, onions and peppers over linguine and my other friend had chicken saltimbocca.

From the moment we stepped in, we thought the place looked gorgeous. The whole experience felt like we were eating dinner at a really good friend's house. It truly felt like you were in someone's home who genuinely cared about making sure everyone felt welcome. Kathy was our server, and she is very talented at what she does. We also had a back waiter who checked on us and helped us multiple times, and even the manager came over to say hi throughout the meal. I can't believe it was our first time eating here, but we're definitely going to be regulars!

Planned to go to Judy's for a date night with wifey. Made a reservation over two weeks in advance…read morefor an early Saturday night dinner. Arranged the babysitter to watch the monster. Etc, etc. A little over a week before, received a call saying they couldn't honor the reservation due to a "booking system oversight" with Resy. They first offered to move my reservation to Friday or Sunday, which didn't fit our schedule. I requested a different time on Saturday night, and was told they were not accepting guests at all that night. Then they offered to move us to a completely different restaurant a few towns away, as in not the beach town we were hoping for. The whole experience was shady, and I don't buy the "booking oversight". It just seems like my reservation was bumped for another party or event. It would've been better to simply be honest. I understand the efforts to still get my money, but if you won't honor the original reservation to begin with, why would I trust you enough to make another one? At the very least, compensation for the disappointing experience would have been nice - drinks on the house, free dessert, anything really. I wanted to go here to try food by the up and coming Chef Viana, but it seems he cares more about being on the Food Network than his actual customers.

The entire…read moreinteraction was solid, great communication on the phone, cool vibes at the shop, it even looked TOP NOTCH and smelled even better on the ride back to my hotel. Detroit style pies are not to be played with, like don't do it if you can't master it because getting the mass of dough cooked thoroughly throughout I empathize is tough but just like putting a steak on your menu, don't do it unless you're ready to cook it perfectly. The smell of this thing had me salivating, the look got me excited, but when I bit into it my heart immediately sank because it was not cooked through. I'm not talking soggy I'm saying raw dough, like major rookie move. It kills me because when I chowed through to the crust, where everything was cooked correctly, it was PERFECT. That's why I'm conflicted because the crust was FIRE; airy, fluffy, perfect everything tasted spot on but they effed up the cook through. I respect how challenging it is to master the delicate balance of that PERFECT THICK CRUST and some how magically making the center perfect too. I've had it and it's like a unicorn of pizza but I've also encountered this rawness so many times which is why I typically stay away from these types but I had gone to BELO a few nights prior which was terrible so I figured this spot could make up for it and it sure did but the raw dough really made me sad because this could've been a 5 star spot and I do want to go back though in disguise because I don't want them to spit on my pie for the 3 stars but I do want to revise this post, round 2, to 5 stars.
