A little confusing, but we rolled with it. We each got sandwiches. I had the capri came with prosciutto, mozzarella, and roasted red peppers. All sandwiches also come with a side of homemade chips.

One of the problems with breakfast, for me, is a lot of places drench everything with butter and salt... which most people seem to like. Not me, I like healthy, natural flavors. I have a couple times ordered their Jersey Girl omelette (tomatoes, asparagus, mozzarella, green onions), and it is made to perfection. Tasty, healthy, and not greasy. Just wonderful. The only thing that prevents me from rating 5 stars is that I was a little surprised that the eggs, which came with toast and potatoes (I had a banana instead), did not come with coffee, for which they charged $3.50 (hey, even Starbucks with their outrageous pricing charges only $2.45 for a cup of plain old coffee). But I would definitely recommend Beach Grille for an eggsellent breakfast!

After having to call the main deli, Chris was helpful and she finally remade the coffee.

We found this place on Yelp after doing a quick search for delis in the area and could not have expected it to be soooo cute! I should have, they are in Ocean Grove, arguably the cutest NJ beach town there is. We ordered online and they were all ready for pick up in less than 20 minutes. Our group ordered 5 different sandwiches, and all were made correctly and were delicious. They had plenty of accommodations for our one gluten free friend (she ended up going with a lettuce wrap and raved about how perfect her sandwich was). My tuna sandwich hit the spot. Sandwiches were anywhere from $17-25 each, so not cheap at all, but when everyone is beyond happy, it's worth it. They had a few seats inside, and the three lovely ladies working were all so friendly and helpful.
