Every time I visited my friend in New Jersey, I passed by this place thinking, "How cute is this…read morestore?" I didn't even realize it was a small breakfast spot. One day, we finally decided to stop in for breakfast. The space is very cute and quaint, and they also have a small section selling snacks and little knickknacks. The way the place operates is a bit different, you serve yourself coffee, place your order deli-style, and pay upfront like a diner. They bring the food to your table, but there isn't much table service. It was slightly confusing at first, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. That said, it was a bit disappointing that the table wasn't clean. We had a baby with us, and when we wiped the table down, the baby wipe turned brown, not something you want to see. It may have been a busy moment, but cleanliness is still important.

In Colts Neck Township, you will find this store-and-diner after navigating a series of roads. I…read moredid not think I would include this as one of my trips, but I decided that I would come. Brand: 4/5 Colts Neck General Store is located in Colts Neck Township, which is initially a store that also acts as a diner. You will find many knickknacks throughout the walls and the ceilings. The red, barn-house walls definitely gives the store a classic look. The tall sign and the wall sign do have different fonts, with the tall sign having basic font while the wall sign had a more prestigious classic look. Wait Time: 5/5 I did not have any issues with the wait time, for it arrived on time. Ambiance: 5/5 As a store-and-diner, Colts Neck General Store has that unique appeal that I see in Monmouth County. You practically feel immersed into the small town appeal with classic rock playing over the radio at a tolerable volume. The food selection on their menu reflects the small town knickknack appeal, with its varying diversity. You will also find plenty of treats for sale near the counter. The dining area had plenty of space with wide tables, whether on their own or in the booths. Food: 4/5 I ordered the Aztec Specialty Omelet, consisting of jalapeno chips, fried onion, spinach, pepper jack. with a side of toast. Initially I ordered orange Juice, but also include a bottle of water considering the hot jalapeno chips and fried onions. Every well-cooked of the omelet definitely gives it a unique spin, though the buttered toast had an unassuming taste and crunch. The pepperjack cheese brings its hardy flavor to this flavor-packed dish. The Aztec Specialty Omelet held its form, even as I cut into it. Considering how Colts Neck General Store houses many unique knickknacks, I can definitely see how one of those items may have inspired this dish, for the Mexican influence has a pronounced presence. The time it took to prepare this dish accurately matched the waiting time, and the service behind it ensured that I received the meal with my choice of side dishes. The Aztec Specialty Omelet managed to satisfy for a little bit throughout the day. Service: 5/5 The staff managed to get my order without any issues, including asking me specific questions about which side dish I wanted. Based on first impressions, I will say that I felt accommodated while feeling immersed in a small town paradise. The wait time did not try my patience. I cannot say for certain whether the staff dust the knickknacks, but I will say that nothing about the ambiance irritated me, so I presume that they care for them. They also ensured the preparation of the menu items. Cost: 4/5 I will say that as a restaurant in Colts Neck Township, it did not become as expensive as expected. Driving across many varying roads, the arrival to such a unique eatery made the food worth it. I would definitely order differing menu items if I arrive in the future. I do think that having a website would help bring modern relevance to Colts Neck General Store without changing the restaurant itself. The wall sign better represents the store than the tall sign, and if the eatery did make a website, I hope it is used for the brand. Ultimately, the price of the Aztec Specialty Omelet and staying there was worth it. Rating: 4/5 Stars Right now, I will say that Colts Neck General Store has a niche presence in Colts Neck, with its unique ambiance and menu selection. I cannot say I would go back any time soon, but if so, I would enjoy any of the other menu items. Recommend To... Anyone looking for a diner with many knickknacks decorating its walls.

Excellent, quick "fun food" 'fast food' BBQ with well-prepared meats and sauces created by an…read moreexpert in Tennessee. The pulled pork slider had a pleasant amount of smokey pork, and the brisket slider transported me to another dimension with how tender and flavorful the brisket was. Both were generously-packed with a dark house BBQ sauce that was different than I've experienced before. I could speculate that there's some sort of soda or molasses rounding out the flavor profile. The only way I could see this elevated would be with some sort of light slaw to add a little texture and vegetables. An included side of chips was equally excellent. House-made from actual potato's, the chips had a pleasant crisp with a hint of what I could perceive as being a malt vinegar. $10 for this entire platter is a sound deal. Then, as I sometimes do, I turned a late lunch into my lunch/dinner for the day and took advantage of their $1 wings deal on Monday's. The minimum order is 12 wings, which ended up being the ideal amount since these were phenomenal. Smokey Sliders' wings are baked with ample seasoning and an impressively crispy, evenly-cooked exterior. The chicken inside was cooked absolutely perfectly, still smoking as I bit into them. I used each of their spicy sauces to cool the wings down: Maple Bourbon BBQ, Mango Habanero, and Pineapple Sriracha. My mouth is watering recollecting the flavors of these sauces: they were all top-tier sauces that are several notches above the standard BBQ sauce at a chain or even a hot sauce purveyor. The flavor notes were all prevalent, with plenty of maple syrup, mango, and pineapple notes respectively balanced well into a slightly-thickened sauce. These wings are top-tier, and some of the best I've ever had. The wings, paired with the sublime sauces, may even be better than the well-crafted sliders. It's served in a clean space with some seating for groups by a friendly owner. I was glad I used Yelp to lead me here instead of grabbing pizza, as I would otherwise have no idea, as the entirety of the meal was excellent. The quality, speed, and innovativeness of the sauces may make this an underdog in the BBQ scene within a few more seasons.

Maybe it is not a 5, because they are slathered in sauce and I would have preferred the sauce on the side. They don't seem especially smoked and for my tastes are a little too over cooked. I don't know if I will return. I wonder if they are really smoked on premises. Seems like they were reheated some how. Will I return ? I don't know. They are not as good IMHO as good Chinese ribs, say from Sichuan Cottage in Marlboro or Mee Mah in Edison.

Not quite dinner time, so the place was empty. Which was great, because we had questions. The woman, whose name I can't remember, was super helpful and guided us through the billboard/menu. We weren't starving, but we got: DAVE'S #1: 2 Tenders w/Fries DAVE'S BITES Medium Drink We asked for *Medium Spicy* But maybe should have asked for mild. Feeling the tops of our heads heat up and sweat may have been an indication The Tenders were big; like a half breast. Coated with a dry-rub. Surprisingly, the chicken was so moist and juicy. The Bites were more like breaded chunks, with the same juicy-ness as the Tenders. Fries were good, and we refilled our soda cup like 4 times to douse the fire. Despite the heat, there is good underlying flavor. Don't forget to grab some packs of honey. Goes great with the chicken. We left satisfied, but at the end of the day its's just chicken

At first you needed to go up to the register to place your order, but the last time I did a sit down here they had someone taking our orders. It was a nice game changer in my opinion. As you can tell, I have tried multiple items on their menu and all I can say is yummmmmmm! They are definitely on my top places to go to for birria type foods! They even have a birria Ramen, which sounds deliciously bad for you! Here's another piece of high praise...my fiance also loves the Birria grilled cheese....like a lot! Apparently, it is one of his too favorite foods he has tried in general! I will have to agree with him in that out of the Birria items I have tried thus far, the grilled cheese is my favorite!

My boyfriend insisted on driving a half hour to come here on a Friday night, and I'm so glad we…read moredid! We started with the Mexican street corn on the cob -- sweet, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. (could have been hotter in temp though). I ordered the bowl version of the Truffle Burrito, and it was incredible. The portion was huge, so I couldn't even finish half (hello, amazing leftovers for lunch!). My boyfriend had three mixed street tacos and loved the chicken taco the most -- which says a lot, since he isn't usually a chicken guy. Service: Our server, Antonio, was the standout of the night. He's easily the best server I've had in years. Friendly, genuine, and full of pride in his work -- we honestly thought he was the owner! He turned a great meal into a memorable experience. Ambiance: The ladies' bathroom was spotless and beautifully decorated -- a nice touch that shows attention to detail. My only small complaint would be that the lighting in the dining area could be a bit softer. The chandeliers give off a cozy, romantic vibe, but the brighter lights took away from the mood a bit. Even though it's a bit of a drive from Brick, we'll definitely be coming back -- happily skipping over the fancy downtown spots through Freehold for the best food and friendliest service in Marlboro!

Meanwhile, owner (Isaac) delivers a personal touch and pride of ownership that is unparalleled. Place is spotless and staff offers phenomenal customer service with a smile. Isaac gives his patrons numerous options. There's the classics done well with high quality ingredients and the phenomenal cultural twists to burgers, chicken sandwiches and even corn dogs. I haven't had a corn dog in forever. This was some kind of tempura-ish fried coating (with a little sweetness to the batter) that I've never seen coupled with a hot dog. I can't wait to go back for the Doritos version. Burger Kraze has already done one promotion for my son's elementary that was a huge hit. The change away from using peanut oil helps broaden the options for those that couldn't enjoy before. Just shows that Isaac has a pulse on the community and that's the touch that you can only find from a local small business owner. Cheers to the success as it's well-deserved for the Rutgers alumni!

I ordered the paneer platter and it was ok. I feel there was more rice than the paneer given. I wish there was a spice level option as well because I like spicy food. The web page pictures are misleading because for one the Makhni in the picture is more of a yellow curry base, whereas what I got was more of a red-orange (more so the color shown in the tikka masala image). My friend ordered the butter chicken and it was the same deal with the color, but I also have never had either dish before with a more yellow curry base so lol I just wanted to say it's inconsistent. We also ordered the Heavenly Hummus to share. Hummus was good, pita was good, but whatever was spread on top of the pita to make it a "garlic bread" was very strange tasting. We didn't particularly enjoy that portion of the pita.

A Gluten-Friendly Nugget Haven in Chatham…read more First time at The Nugget Spot - Chatham, and I'm so glad a friend introduced me. I just wish they'd open one closer to Bergen County! As someone with a gluten allergy, I was a little nervous at first, but the grilled nuggets are a total lifesaver, and they even have broccoli as a side. I went with the medium grilled combo and paired it with the Smokin' J's BBQ sauce -- the nuggets were juicy, packed with flavor, and incredibly fresh. The portion was generous enough that I brought home leftovers for later. I also tried their homemade blueberry lemonade, it was refreshing. For anyone who can enjoy gluten, the wings and nuggets looked amazing -- and the sauce options alone could spark a serious debate! Service was quick and friendly. It wasn't crowded when we walked in, but I can definitely picture this spot getting busy during peak hours. The staff was fun to joke with, and the place was clean with plenty of parking. It's a great spot to get tasty food fast. Downsides: limited seating, so not ideal for larger groups wanting to dine in, and no bathroom on-site. Being part of a strip mall, though, you've got other stores nearby if needed. If I lived closer, this would definitely be a staple spot. Highly recommend for anyone looking for flavorful, fast, gluten-friendly nuggets!

I decided on ordering the Veggie Shack, listed as packed with mushrooms, sweet potatoes, carrots, farro, and quinoa. None of those ingredients were identifiable as all I tasted was salt. It was a full-on salt bomb. I couldn't take the sodium assault any longer and threw everything out. So much for healthy eating. One last thing.
