    A bagel with cream cheese.

    Two sesame bagels with cream cheese toasted. I recieve a sesame bagel not toasted with barely any cream cheese on it. I mean either they are extremely petty with providing good food or they are incompetent. AVOID should change the name to Rosko's Scam Bagels

    Strawberry waffles with Fresh banana
    SuzAnne S.

    I absolutely love trying new places for breakfast and this little gem fit the bill. Mini-Me and I didn't want diner food or o go to iHop, we both wanted something different but easy on our wallets. Mini-Me wanted chicken and waffles, I am thinking whatttt? we are not in LA Cali anymore Missy (cuz ya kno' Roscoe's is the BE ALL END ALL). But this Rosko's small parking lot was packed! this place was hoppin' and business was brisk! from call in ahead orders- walk in take out- to orders for eating in. I was impressed, for such a small joint to have such a expanded menu but specific on dishes, something for everyone and reasonable on the wallet, I was in. The girls behind the counter were hustling the orders, smiling, helping new customers decide and the coffee brewed was so delicious, not sure if it because it was cold out, so early in the morning or just a great blend, but it was well appreciated. We also ordered the strawberry waffle with fresh bananas as well as blueberry waffles, fluffy, hot, crisp outside but so soft and perfect inside, just a little maple syrup to compliment the dishes, each was a bite of hearty happy goodness. Now, it is is Roscoe's LA Cali? no, it isn't and anyplace outside of the Manchester Blvd location would be a recipe hard pressed to impress. But does this breakfast/lunch spot give me the opportunity to enjoy a delicious breakfast with my Mini-Me to chat it up, laugh, and just enjoy the beginning of beautiful new day, yes it does and that's all that really matters, right? right! good food, tasty dishes a staff of employees that care, I really will be back for more breakfasts and of course chicken and waffles that fit the bill when you want something different. Rosko's its not huge at all, seating is an "L" section of tables against the front window area so sharing space is appreciated, there are a couple of 2 person seating outside as well and that's where Mini-Me and I sat to enjoy our Sunday breakfast.

    If you're doing anything special to your order, call it in or order in person.

    I just turned in my stamp card for a free hot sandwich so it's about time I write this. My fiancé and I have been ordering from here if not every week then every other week. (And all I turned in was one card?? Lol. I'm new in town and we didn't know about the card until a month ago.) My guy is simple. Anything with bacon. One of his favorites is The Belly Buster on a plain bagel. I, on the other hand, have been hooked on the ham and cheddar in a spinach wrap with lettuce, onions, tomatoes and mayo with a side of coleslaw. I'd eat half a wrap for breakfast and the other half for lunch. Service has been excellent, especially the back-of-the-house team. I, unfortunately, had to witness a mom chew out one of the guys in back over her bagel not being toasted. It's Mother's Day and you're going to embarrass your husband and daughter by throwing a tantrum over an untoasted bagel? I'm sorry you're that miserable. The guy even came out to apologize. I applaud you, Sir. Keep up the awesome hospitality. Your team rocks.

    Bagel with Jalapeno Cream Cheese

    The jalapeño bagel is so yummy and rich the service is also great and quick! And their prices are really good compared to other places around

    EGG & CHEESE IN EVERYTHING CROISSANT
    Anna L.

    Ever had an everything CROISSANT???!! OR A LOW CARB WEIGHT WATCHER BAGEL??? Didn't even know they'd ever exist till I came across Rosko's. BOGGLED MY MIND!! *stoked* and they're freaking delish, you MUST try em!!! Even their regular menu is delish! Usually get their spinach wrap avocado eggs - yumm, brightens the morning every time! The owner is always so so nice too!!!

    Avocado scrambler

    Came in for a late breakfast. Excellent avocado scrambler ( 10/10 will order again, did not expect it to be so good) and strawberry cream cheese on a blueberry bagel. My husband said his plain bagel and cream cheese were also great. They were pretty busy but got us our food in a timely manner. The staff is younger and really nice and the manager was very appreciative of them dealing with a difficult customer while we were here which was good to see. We are new to town and will definitely be regulars here :)

    I can't believe I waited so long to come back to Harvest. What was I thinking ?…read more We went out for lunch to celebrate my friend's birthday and Harvest turned out to be a great choice! The location is a little further than we would normally travel, but it was worth it. I loved all the farm to table foods they have. They even nicely promote all the partners they use right on the wall of the restaurant, so you know where all your food comes from. Everyone loved their meals! I had the Thai chicken sandwich and it was so flavorful and delicious. It came with a side and I picked baked sweet potato wedges that were really good and so memorable that a week later I am still thinking about them. Other dishes ordered were the chicken salad and strawberry salad which my friends both enjoyed. Our server was very good and didn't rush us as we were just chatting up a storm. The restaurant suggests reservations which are a good idea, especially for dinner. I will definitely be back and can't wait to put Harvest on my restaurant rotation. Sorry no photos this time... the food was just so good and we were hungry!

    This is not a food review. The dishes looked excellent. Management would not honor a older gift…read morecertificate from prior owner. It was for $50. Based on the menu prices, I would have likely had to add another $50 for a 2 person meal. Bad business decision. Not a nice way to treat a senior veteran who moved from the area and wanted to enjoy a meal there. So, for $50, you get a 1 star review and I'll never consider coming back. Guess you don't care.

    Along this highway in Farmingdale, you will find an Italian deli that serves quality ingredients. I…read moreonly went there to support local businesses, and I will say that I do not regret it. Brand: 5/5 Tenth and Willow is an Italian-themed deli located in Colts Neck Plaza in Farmingdale. The logo has the Italian flag emblazoned in the background. The solid aesthetics on the website of the sparkles and shining rays perfectly represent the brand. When it comes to the interior, I will say that they deliver on all they promise, for you will find many Italian food and ingredients throughout the establishment. Website: 5/5 It brings you immediately to an image of a sandwich, which makes a good first impression on anyone coming to the site. Scrolling down, you encounter the backstory and the menu with many selections from beverages to wraps to heroes. You will find at the bottom a regularly updated blog section filled with fun facts of Tenth and Willow. Wait Time: 5/5 I experienced no delay or disruptions during the time I waited for my order. Ambiance: 4/5 The establishment housed plenty of Manhattan Specials of varying flavors throughout the aisles. You will also find plenty of cookies and treats upon racks, including meats and cheese hidden behind large glass counters. The aisles and the space between them and the deli did feel cramped with no tables or seats available. Food: 5/5 I ordered the Maple Ham Hero, which considers maple ham, fontana cheese, lettuce, tomato, and balsamic glaze. The maple ham had a sweet taste, as expected, which complements well with the sharp fontana cheese and the lettuce. The balsamic glaze had its own strong taste. The bread held well and had a decent amount of crunch, without becoming stale. Everything in the hero stayed in place while it also had a rich, thick taste. Service: 5/5 The staff managed to get my order without any issues. Worth The Money?: 4/5 The selection of meals, such as heroes, definitely reflect the brand of Tenth and Willow as an Italian market-and-deli. While I did not have a problem waiting, it did feel cumbersome in a cramped area for my order. Nevertheless, the ambiance of exploring around the establishment did not have an issue with me, especially as I got to see the delicacies from the cookies to the marzipan. As for the Maple Ham Hero, the appropriate wait time matched the quality of the food. The organization of the food shows that the staff care about their ingredients. They make it clear on their website that most of their partners provided locally sourced ingredients. If that is true, then this establishment deserves more attention, and I can see how Italian restaurants would rely on this deli for their ingredients. While the website does not scroll down with silky speed, it does provide a sense of welcoming ambiance with its deep, green color. I will say ultimately that the price of the Maple Ham Hero and the experience going to Tenth and Willow was worth it. Rating: 5/5 Stars I have hope that Tenth and Willow will continue to have relevance in Farmingdale, and among those who prioritize Italian cuisine and ingredients. Recommend To... Anyone just starting an Italian restaurant and is looking for key ingredients, since you would be supporting local producers while propping up your local business, thus creating a network of local businesses that help the community through the local multiplier effect. I also recommend to anyone looking to add more to their Italian-inspired cuisine and need suggestions about which meats, cheese, or spices to use. If you like Manhattan Special, then I would also recommend this establishment to you.

    There used to be a barbecue place in this little plaza that is no longer there, so I stopped in…read moreTenth and Willow for a sandwich. I never tried this place before. I had a tuna wrap (spinach wrap). The tuna was flavorful. My only issue was the spinach wrap. It took a little effort to bite through so I don't know if that means it wasn't as fresh. They had some other things I would like to try and will. As for the wrap, I would just call it a one off.

    I've recently been mesmerized by sister property Mezcal, and haven't been back to 618 in some time…read more Last night we were in the area and decided to swing by for a cocktail and appetizers. Very cool that Venue 618 was the only NJ restaurant to make the recent Yelp Top 100 restaurants in the US. Sitting at the bar, we were served by Zoey, Steve, and Mike. They've re-done their cocktail menu to include beautiful color illustrations. I enjoyed "One in a Melon," a well-balanced whiskey cocktail with Frank August small batch bourbon, melon, poblano pepper, Aperol, and lime. This was followed by a tasty whiskey sour. My wife ordered a Lemon Drop martini, followed by a decadent chocolate-pistachio dessert martini. All of the cocktails were well-balanced and delicious. On the food side, I munched on a baked macaroni & cheese with chorizo. It was perfect! The Death of Hospitality brand thrives on personalization and unexpected surprises. Mixologist Steve, realizing that I'm a whiskey afficionado, surprised me with a small pour of Rock Hill Farms Single Barrel bourbon. This is a difficult bottle to find in New Jersey. Rock Hill Farms was incredible, with a super long finish. Thanks for the memories 618!

    After dining many times at 618, I hosted my wife's retirement dinner there last night. We had the…read moreprivate oak room with our own bartender to make sure there was no wait for drinks. The food was amazing. The filet mignon, halibut, and chicken Milanese all drew rave reviews from my guests. What made the night even more enjoyable was the outstanding service by June, Ro and Beverly. I got more compliments on the service than on the food. These ladies never stopped moving and made each guest feel like they were the only ones in the room at times. From the first minute guests entered until they were thanked by the ladies on their way out the door, these three ladies showed why they are an asset to your restaurant. If every party at 618 goes like this one, I will be hosting more celebrations there. Everything was 5 stars!

Although it wasn't very busy, service upstairs was fairly slow, and several nearby tables also seemed to be waiting a while for food or checks. For drinks, we ordered the Boardwalk Lemonade, which was sweet and refreshing, and their version of an Aperol Spritz, which had a beautiful presentation. My dad's Baked Brie Burger was delicious--the fig jam paired perfectly with it, and the waffle fries were fried to perfection. I ordered the Mr. Beautiful Burger, which tasted great at first. Unfortunately, I felt VERY sick almost immediately after eating. I can't say for certain what caused it, but since my dad didn't try my burger and felt fine after his meal, I suspect mine may not have been cooked properly. Despite that, I enjoyed the atmosphere, drinks, and overall experience. I'd definitely give this place another chance, though I'll skip the Mr. Beautiful Burger next time.
