    My husband and I were in red bank and decided to try out this branch. We frequent the branch in New…read moreBrunswick and love their happy hour. There is a parking lot across the street you can park at so no need to worry about street parking. The first thing I noticed was that this location was much smaller than the New Brunswick location and had a more chill vibe. I thought the happy hour menu had less selection as well. I was low-key disappointed there were no clams or oysters on the menu considering we are much closer to the shoreline. My husband loved his smashburger, it was very juicy. He also enjoyed the sweet potato fries which he normally doesn't like. My wings have the perfect amount of sauce where it didn't drown the wing and it was still a big crispy. We were in and out within the hour so service was fast on a Tuesday night. But I think we are going to stick with the New Brunswick branch.

    We chose B2 Bistro in Red Bank to enjoy their Tuesday Taco night. Despite the fact that this…read moreSpecial offering is listed on their website, we were told that those prices were no longer in effect and would not be honored! (Is that legal? It's certainly not ethical!) We were charged approx TWICE as much for the Website listed 'Special' tacos! They certainly were special-E'special'ly expensive! We asked to speak with the manager who indicated that she didn't even know that this 'Special' was still on their website. At that point (and in good faith), she should have offered us something as compensation! When told that they do not carry a common beverage-BLUE MOON, the waitress suggested giving me a similar beer and offered a 'taste test'. I could not tell if I liked the sample cause the shot glass had SO LITTLE beer in it-offering me NO TASTE at all. We also ordered chips, plantains, and salsa as an appetizer. For the cost of $14.00, I assumed it would contain enough chips for three people and might even be an unlimited supply. There were approx 15 chips on the plate and 6 plantains-which were tasteless. But think about it!? 15 taco chips for three people to the tune of $14.00?! They should be embarrassed! By 7:30, this restaurant was almost empty. We have been there several times over the years, but this place has deteriorated, in many ways, and we will no longer patronize this establishment!

    We really wanted to love this place, but unfortunately it was a complete letdown…read more The space itself is beautiful, and the service was good. Drinks were presented nicely, but flavor-wise they were just... fine. We started with the short rib flatbread, which was extremely dry. There were five of us and we left nearly half of it. The charred octopus was also disappointing--lacking flavor and a bit chewy. Mains were where things really fell apart. I ordered the spicy rigatoni, and it honestly tasted like jarred sauce--multiple people at the table tried it and agreed. It reminded me of the sauce inside a pizza roll: cheap and overly processed. I ate only a few bites before giving up. I woke up in the middle of the night with severe heartburn, nausea and stomach pains. Two friends shared a steak ordered medium; it came out well done. Sides were risotto and Brussels sprouts. The Brussels were good, but the risotto was very thick and gluey rather than creamy. The remaining two entrees were gnocchi and chicken Milanese. The gnocchi was bland and barely touched. One friend did say she enjoyed the chicken Milanese, which was the lone bright spot of the night. We don't mind spending money on food--but it needs to be good food. Unfortunately, nothing justified the price point. I wouldn't go back. It's a shame, because the restaurant has a lot of visual appeal and real potential, but the execution just isn't there.

If you're a seafood lover, I recommend starting off with the charred octopus or the shrimp fritters.The octopus was tender, smoky and perfectly charred. The shrimp fritters were golden and crispy filled with delicious, juicy shrimp. You also have to try the spicy tuna hand roll. Fresh, silky tuna with a kick of spice, perfectly wrapped in crisp seaweed--this hand roll is a must for sushi lovers. The dry aged cowboy ribeye steak was unbelievable. With every mouthwatering bite I found myself just wanting more. It was honestly one of the best steaks I've ever had. The golden, buttery scallops melted in my mouth with every bite, paired with ultra-creamy goat cheese polenta for the ultimate indulgence. An irresistible dance of flavors made for sharing. We topped off the night with this decadent, warm brownie crowned with silky ice cream--an intimate finish that's both rich and irresistibly smooth. I cannot confirm nor deny that we finished the whole skillet. Service was very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere is upscale and sleek. This is a great place for an intimate date night, classy girls night out, or sophisticated celebration.

The whole operation is just done so well. The food preparation is excellent. And all the different nutrients that they provide! In the service by all the volunteers. So hard-working and the kindest of smilesl Genuine care for us all. The menu is presented, and you can order an appetizer, an entrée, and a dessert. I ordered ZUCCHINI CORN CHOWDER * Creamy Corn, Zucchini, and Potato Soup My bff ordered the GREEKISH SALAD *+ Mixed Greens, Bell Pepper, Chickpeas, Cucumber, Red Onion, Feta, Lemon Dill Dressing MAIN COURSE I ordered PISTACHIO CRUSTED SALMON + Served over Orange Scented Cous Cous and Vegetables Du Jour My bff ordered the SAUSAGE BROCCOLI ORRECHIETTE Ground Sausage, Sauteed Broccoli, Orrechiette Pasta, Garlic Parm Broth Everything was fresh and delicious and just so beautiful. My salmon dish was so plentiful. I did have to have a box for 1/2 of it. If you were interested in additional JBJ Soul Kitchen items like shirts, coffee, cups, travel tumblers they have them available. And you can always leave a little extra for them to pay forward. I'm very grateful to all the people that made this day so special. And I understand that every day they do these kind hearted magical things! But it is quite wonderful to be in the presence of kindness in motion. Thanks to all the people that make it possible from the delivery drivers, servers cooks, the managers, some organizers, the farmers and the farm workers. The people who answer emails and telephones. So many countless kind hearted people who work for the benefit of everyone. Thank you dearly.

We got there on a Friday eventing at 5. Knowing that they don't take reservations and that there aren't that many tables we wanted to make sure that we would get a table. It is a lovely place run by lovely attentive volunteers. The whole backstory and the good they are doing goes beyond what the food tastes like. The restaurant asks for food donations (suggested $30 per person) for a 3 course meal but if you can't afford to pay you can volunteer some time for your food as well. So several tables are filled with homeless men and women who were also dining there. The appetizer and entree were tasty but the dessert (a chocolate brownie) was a bit hard and stale. Overall it was a wonderful experience that everyone should go to at least once.
