This is to report a serious health and sanitation concern…read more On Friday, January 16, 2026, at approximately 12:26 PM, I was inside the establishment when I observed a roach crawling on the wall. An employee, who appeared to be the manager on duty (as she was older and seemed to be overseeing the shift), attempted to kill the roach. When she grabbed it with a napkin, the roach fell onto the table. The employee then killed the roach and disinfected the table. However, this same employee had taken my order and continued handling service immediately after the incident. The food was served, but none of it was consumed due to the health concern. There was one other younger employee present, but they were not involved in the incident. Camera footage should confirm this event, as it would show the employee killing something on the wall during this time. Due to the seriousness of the situation, I also contacted the Health Department to report this incident.

I've been passing this establishment ever since January. Having dined at other Noches locations…read more(Dover, which has closed and I was not crazy about their overcooked food) and Belleville/Bloomfield, which was very good. I decided to give this one a try. I finally broke down and stopped in for lunch on Saturday March 8. The place wasn't crowded. It's a bit spacious but not many tables. My first thought was that it would be hard to get a table at dinner time. I was seated immediately and my order came right away. The server was very seeet and friendly and always checked on me. I ordered a paellita noches with black beans as well as tostones (fried green plantains) I received the paellita that came with maduros (fried sweet plantains). I ordered black beans but Instead I got red beans. I let it go. The paellita was good and a huge portion. I had to take half home. I didn't care for the red beans. They were a bit tasteless. The tostones were bland and a bit too greasy. I added salt and dipped them in the beans. (I'm PR and we add salt as soon as the fried plantains come out the fryer so that it sticks or serve it with mojo). Tostones do not taste good bland. I may go again and try some different items, skip the tostones and make sure that I get my black beans. I'll update this review depending on my experience when I return.

I'd like to start off with the fact that the food was absolutely fresh, authentic, and delicious!…read more I had the ribs with rice, pinto beans, guacamole, pico de gallo, and plantains. Did I mention that the did was fresh?! Wow! Mmm! My boyfriend had the combination fajita. He made the same comment... sooo fresh! We almost didn't stay because when we entered the establishment, other than the one family that was already seated at a table, there was no one to be found. Just before I was going to walk out, a young man walked out from the kitchen and told us we could sit where we wanted to. He brought menus and asked us what we'd like to drink. After mentioning a few things that included unsweet iced tea and Pellegrino, we asked for the tea. He returned to say they were out. We then asked for the Pellegrino, but he immediately stated they didn't have any. We opted for the mineral water. We were brought a small tray with chips and salsa. Once again, very fresh and the salsa was amazing. I did have to ask for napkins. All in all, I'll definitely be visiting this restaurant again

This was my first time visiting Tatum's Table. There was ample parking and my friend and I arrived…read moreon a Saturday afternoon to restaurant that was lively and full of energy. Upon entering, we were warmly greeted by the staff and seated soon after. The menu had a wide variety of items from paninis, salads, and omelettes, to things like burgers and New York strip steaks. The drink selection is also nice with lattes, coffee, matcha, chai, all at a reasonable price. Overall, anyone eating here would be able to find something they like. For drinks we got the coconut cake matcha, and carrot cake matcha. The coconut cake matcha had a very nice coconut flavor with cream that was not too sweet and it tasted exactly like a coconut cake. It's good if you like coconut. The carrot cake matcha tasted like a spiced carrot cake and was the flavors were very balanced. Both were very enjoyable! What we ended up ordering was the Croffle Flight (Crème Brûlée, Tiramisu, Cannoli, Fresh Berries & Cream), chicken and waffles, the Tatum's Table Burger, and the Green Goddess Salad with steak. This was my first time having a croffle which is a mix between a waffle and a croissant. Each one was very delicious and presented beautifully. My favorite thing about them was the texture and consistency since they were pillowy soft on the inside but still had a little bounce/crunch to it. On top of that, the chicken and waffles far exceeded my expectations when i bit into it and it had huge flavor! The Sweet Bourbon-Brown Sugar Maple Syrup and Honey Butter used complemented it so well. The burger was also very good and you can tell very fresh ingredients were used. It was delicious and what I noticed about it was that when eating it, nothing was greasy or oily. It was very clean and the only moisture was from the patty's juiciness and the fresh vegetables used. This is a contrast to other burgers I've had that were oily and I felt great after eating this one. Lastly, we got the green goddess salad with steak. As you can see in the picture, the portion was very generous and the ingredients were all fresh. It was delicious and is great for anyone who likes tangy herb dressings. To conclude, I must say that Tatum's Table is a destination worth visiting. The entire time I was there, I was well taken care of by the friendly staff who made me feel at home. The menu had a lot of effort put into it and the food clearly shows. I will be visiting again soon.

We recently visited Tatum's Table for breakfast and were greeted with a warm welcome and seated…read moreright away. One thing that caught us off guard was the air freshener placed on the windowsill near our table. We actually asked to move because the scent was pretty noticeable. Personally, when I'm dining out, I want to smell the food--not a bathroom-style air freshener. It seemed a little out of place in an otherwise pleasant dining environment. That said, the service was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely worth the visit. Our meal took a little while to arrive, but everything came out fresh and delicious. The corned beef hash was cooked perfectly and topped with beautifully poached eggs. My husband ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken Benedict and thoroughly enjoyed it. To finish our breakfast, we shared the pancake flight, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. Despite the air freshener issue, the quality of the food will definitely bring us back. Next time, I have my eye on the mac and cheese flight!

Turning Point in Holmdel was hands down the perfect choice for breakfast. We lucked out with a…read morebeautiful morning, so we grabbed a table on the outdoor patio and enjoyed the sunshine. We arrived early and had no problem finding a seat, but this place gets busy fast. If you're planning a later visit, I definitely recommend joining the waitlist ahead of time. Turning Point has earned a loyal following throughout New Jersey for its fresh, made-from-scratch breakfast and brunch menu, quality ingredients, and excellent coffee selection. It's easy to see why it's become a favorite destination for breakfast lovers. We kicked off our meal with mimosas (yes, it's BYOB, so bring your favorite bottle of champagne!). As a coffee fanatic, I couldn't pass up their Hawaiian Kona Blend French Press coffee. Ever since my first trip to Hawaii, Kona has been my favorite coffee, and Turning Point does it right. Each pot is ground to order, brewed with purified water, and brought to your table to finish steeping. When you're ready, you slowly press the stainless steel filter, releasing the rich flavors, aromatic oils, and smooth crema. Every sip is bold, incredibly smooth, and packed with flavor. If you're a coffee lover, this is an absolute must. For breakfast, we ordered: Breakfast Combo - Two slices of thick-cut French toast, two eggs over easy, and a side of their refreshing citrus-dressed mixed greens. The French toast was light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, making for a classic breakfast done exceptionally well. Nantucket Benedict - A toasted English muffin topped with generous chunks of cracked lobster, plum potatoes, thick-cut smoked bacon, fresh avocado slices, and finished with a bright lemon-cilantro hollandaise sauce. It was an incredible combination of flavors that balanced richness with freshness in every bite. Everything that came to the table was absolutely mouthwatering. Honestly, the photos don't do these dishes justice--you have to experience them for yourself. A special shoutout to our server, Adam, who was outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, and constantly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. From the delicious food and exceptional coffee to the outstanding service and relaxing outdoor seating, Turning Point in Holmdel delivered an outstanding breakfast experience. If you're looking for one of the best breakfast and brunch spots in the area, this one should absolutely be on your list.
