They have a frozen section where you can get different types of ravioli, including ravioli with Gorgonzola stuffed inside, etc. They have a hot and cold food station, snacks, pastries fresh and packaged. 1. Eggplant parm - delicious and cheesy. Thin breaded eggplant. Few stacks. About 800 calories for one slice. 2. Meat lasagna - Ricotta filled and flavorful! Overall, I'd come again to try other food items or try snacks.

My fiance bought two sandwiches and a serving of eggplant parm. The young man behind the deli…read morecounter was not paying attention in preparing the sandwiches. My fiance requested oil and vinegar on his sandwich which it did not have. He requested lettuce and tomato on mine which it did not have. These young kids should be properly trained!! The eggplant parm was very bland! The sauce, breadcrumbs on the eggplant and the cheese had no flavor. It was very disappointing. With the hefty prices they charge, it is not worth it!

The overall vibe is more toward a fast-food/ casual restaurant feel rather than anything fancy-- but food us very good. They don't have wifi. Service is ok nothing special .

This restaurant is not so close, so we don't dine here as often as I would like. Last Thursday…read moreevening we enjoyed delicious meals here. Service by Jason was very attentive. The ambiance is pleasant, though the place gets noisy when full. IB sells many wines at reasonable prices. We had a bottle of Italian Pinot Grigio for $21. Entrees come with soup or salad and two types of yummy bread. For entrees we ordered specials Seafood Riviera $29 and Salmon Scampi $27. Relish! If you haven't been to IB, try it you will be in for a treat! If you have been here and live relatively nearby, you probably have become a regular.

It was decorated so nicely for Christmas!! The server was so kind but the service was so slow…read more Other tables were being sat, got their dinner and would leave before we got our appetizers and then it happened again while we waited for dinner. Not sure if they forgot to put our order in but I've never experienced a restaurant taking that long. It wasn't that packed! As for the food, the bacon wrapped scallops were yummy and the pasta fagioli soup was good. However, I did not enjoy the taste of the clams which I eat often. Not sure if I got a yucky one. The menu had veal sorrentino but I'm not a big veal fan so asked for them to switch it to chicken and they accommodated that with no issue. But the sauce wasn't very flavorful. I was in the area but not sure that I'd come back due to the overall experience.

Wonderful, reliable and delicious restaurant. Hard not to order the pork chop as they do it so well…read moreand it is my favorite! But this time I changed it up and switched to the Merluzzo Oreganata (cod with crab meat in a creamy lemon sauce)...omg it was a great switch. I substituted brussels sprouts for the creamy spinach. It was all amazing. My Daughter picked the Christina's Pescatore which is seafood over linguini in the white wine sauce. It was a reliable choice and not spicy like the other choice of red sauce. I appreciate the dinner salad and basket of bread. So many places don't do this anymore. Monday night and almost every table full...impressive. Service is always right on, portions are generous, food is fresh and seasoned/prepared perfectly. It is a reliable and delicious everytime. My only complaint is it isn't in my neighborhood! Haha. I highly recomnend.

We will be back!

It was a quiet Monday, President's Day, late afternoon and coming back from a road trip. Brooklyn Square was the perfect pit stop! We had some pizza, some pasta and some salad and it was all really good. Our server highly recommended sandwich #17 and it was so good. I would have never ordered a grilled shrimp panini - - but this one was loaded with shrimp, avocado, broccoli rabe and fresh mozz -- SO GOOD - - definitely try that one! Service was also very good. Our server had so much patience - - it's hard to decide on an order because everything is so good! There's a reason Dave Portnoy gave Brooklyn Square a 8.9 rating - - the signature "upside down" pizza is so good. (Cheese on the bottom, sauce on the top). It's actually hard to even pick one slice - - so you'll have to go back and try other ones. My husband loves the eggplant rollatini....breaded eggplant rolled with ricotta, spinach, roasted red peppers with mozz on top - -that brings him back to Brooklyn Square every time! There are also quite a few other locations - Manalapan, Toms River, Bradley Beach, and the new Shrewsbury restaurant. I can't wait for them to open up their Marlboro location!

We ordered two of the dinners to go - eggplant parm and chicken francaise. Both were okay, but just not great. They are generous with the portions, and the dinners come with pasta, salad and garlic bread. The meats and other prepared foods look good. They also have several types of rye bread from Paramount bakery in Newark. I got a loaf of the Russian rye, and it's really good, hearty rye bread. We'll definitely come back - and next time try a meatball parm sub and perhaps some of their sausage or other things.
