    Where's the tuna?
    Michelle A. M.

    Usually a food is very good, today it was horrible. I ordered a tuna sandwich among other items to go. I received a salad with American Cheese and practically no tuna salad. Right into the garbage! What an absolute waste of my time and money. Check your food before you leave, fast service but maybe too fast? * cheese is not on the menu and is was not requested

    Great place! Fresh healthy food choices. I had the Grilled Chicken Salad and Carrot Ginger Soup, the wife had the Vietnamese Salad.

    Outside seating ...carrot ginger soup and lemonade

    I love their chicken summer roll with their peanut sauce! They have a good selection of soups and a chili that people love. Service isn't great here. They tend to be in their own world on their phones and eating. You often have to find them for your bill. There are 2 waitresses in their late 20s or early 30s I really like but the younger girls are very inattentive. Prices are very reasonable and fair. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area, they have multiple locations.

    Great little place in the West End section of long Branch. Decided to check it out on a recent trip to visit my niece. I started off with a bowl of split pea soup, which is a favorite. It was delicious! Nice & thick, not runny. I decided to try their chicken chili as well. It was very good as well. These ladies were quite busy with takeout orders in between waiting the tables. It's obvious the locals love it here. I will be returning.

    Pad Thai with tofu!!

    A cute little cafe by Long Branch beach. Just up the road from pier village! I went here for lunch with some friends after a nice day at the beach! Great service and seating. But the food is a little off. NOTE: I went here a year ago, not sure if they have changed their recipes/method of cooking!! I ordered a pad thai with tofu! It was a little funky, but I tried to like it. Wasn't bad, but just... interesting. First, they didn't even use the right noodles (rice noodles). Not sure what noodles they used but it was too sticky and not right. Overall, the ingredients were okay. Had the usual stuff you found in pad Thai like carrots, onions, and bean sprouts, but also some other stuff like fried onions which I liked. The off part was that the dish was unusually sweet. I thought it was just me but I asked my friends who got wraps and their food was a little too sweet too. I know I came into an American place ordering pad Thai, so I didn't have the highest expectations but dang. It was really weird. Wouldn't order again. After finding out and trying some of my friends' food was sweet too not sure if I would come back for the food. I would come back for the juices, drinks and stuff like that. 3 stars because they were really nice and very spacious. Food wasn't necessarily bad too.

    Chicken Chilli (amazing) and butternut squash

    Great food, strive, and ambience. It is our go to restaurant for higher end experience. Can't say…read moreenough great things about the staff in particular. They don't try to over sell but really do their best to help one select the "right" meat for one's tastes and desires. Looking forward to our next dinner there!

The ambience is absolutely beautiful warm, inviting, and the perfect atmosphere whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a nice night out. I ordered the dry-aged bourbon ribeye, and it was one of the best steaks I've ever had. It was so tender it practically melted in my mouth, like cutting through butter. The flavor was incredible, with the perfect balance of smoky richness and a subtle sweetness that made every bite unforgettable. What really made the evening special was our server, Mark. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of our questions about the menu. His positive attitude and genuine hospitality made the entire experience even more enjoyable. If you get Mark as your server, you're lucky and guaranteed to have an excellent dining experience. To top it all off, we ordered the Chiro Bowl for dessert, and because it was my birthday, they surprised me by putting it on the house. It was such a thoughtful gesture and a perfect ending to an amazing meal. If you're looking for an outstanding steakhouse with incredible food, a beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional service, Butcher's Block is the place to go. I can't recommend it enough, and I'll definitely be coming back!

If you know anything about Anjelica's it's how difficult it is to get a reservation. My friend and I showed up on a whim at 4pm on a Tuesday to ask if they had a spare table for dinner. Much to my surprise, they were able to seat us for a quick dinner and were very accommodating. The quick dinner turned into 2.5 hours and we were extremely grateful they let us stay so long. Everyone working there was super attentive. You could tell they really cared about providing great service and a great experience. We ordered what felt like the entire menu - 3 apps and 3 entrees to split because why not? Everything sounded so good we couldn't resist. We started with the octopus, spiedini special, and zucchini flowers. The octopus was so tender it melted in your mouth. Some of the best I've eaten. Same goes for the zucchini flowers. Light and delicate but still packed with flavor. We split the spicy vodka, salmon special, and pasta al forno as our entrees. The spicy vodka macaroni was insane. I could have eaten 10 bowls it was that good. I'm not exaggerating when I say it was totally worth the hype. Angelica's far exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to return!
