Brie burger
Bennie L.

The restaurant is light, with simple wood tables & chairs. The bar has some color. The service was outstanding! It was a late lunch the day before Valentine's Day so it wasn't busy, so the bartender was our waiter. He couldn't have been any more helpful, attentive or friendly. The food was great! The veggie burger was really good, and the side salad was delicious (with a tasty balsamic dressing). The Brie burger was super delicious and the waffle sweet potato fries were hot and perfectly crispy.

Bike & Brunch at the Committed Pig

Stopped here after a bike ride on the Capital to Coast bike trail. What a pleasant surprise! Didn't know this place existed until today. Everything was perfect. Food was delicious, very fresh; service was excellent (Annie was our waitress and was excellent). Atmosphere was open, airy and beautiful. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!

PigMac with the sweet potato fries
Christina G.

Great spot for refuel after a lifeguard comp in Sea Girt. They had a great cold brew which I needed! No pictured were the wings and fried pickle chips the boys had for apps. My husband and I split the PigMac and the Double fried chicken sandwiches. The sweet potato waffle fries were a nice touch. Service was great (thanks for the recommendations) and the decor was cute with the mid matched chairs.

I finally checked the Committed Pig, and wow! It was way better than I expected. Seriously, the place was super cool and stylish inside, really comfy and casual feeling. has a rooftop deck, not sure the rooftop hours. Their happy hour draft beers are great prices that won't break the bank especially for being down the shore. The cocktails were the real stars of the show. They weren't just your average drinks; these were seriously creative and delicious - perfectly balanced and you could tell they used really good stuff. Each one was like a little work of art!.

Chipotle Bacon Burger and sweet potato fries
Mike P.

Visited this past weekend with family for an early lunch. Ambiance is awesome and our service was very good. My sister in law got one of the cocktail specials and she said it was absolutely spectacular. Burgers are way above average as to be expected. Fries were cold which was a bummer. Good sized portions. A favorite spot in Manasquan when we're down the shore.

Chipotle Bacon Burger

Very clean, the service was good, and the burgers were delish. Get there when they aren't busy!

Pig Fries

Had lunch here for the first time today. The Illy Dilly Burger was amazing. Juicy as all get out. The Bartender, Norm, was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back.

The Kitchen started up the Wednesday twofer thing again. Prices are way up from last year, as they…read moreare everywhere from Bideniflation. So for 32 bucks you each get an entree with soup or salad and desert. Still a fair price. The salad was standard, the tomato bisque was amazing. What makes a bisque a bisque? "A traditional French chef would define a bisque as being a thick, creamy soup made with shellfish and thickened by a paste made from their shells. Cooking shells? I had no idea! Julia Child was one chef to popularize lobster bisque in the United States; her recipe uses both the shells of the lobster and rice to thicken the bisque. Today's definition of bisque has expanded to include vegetable bisques, like tomato and butternut squash. The word is more related to the smooth texture of the dish and the use of cream. Most modern bisques are thickened using rice. Some cook the rice in the broth and strain it out later, using only the left-behind rice starch to thicken the soup. Others puree the rice into the soup to thicken it. Almost all bisques are finished with hot cream for a velvety texture." A little info from your uncle Steve. I got the lasagna,very good. My wife got the drunken burrata, which is a chicken cutlet in a vodka sauce over penne toped with mozarella and burrata cheese. It was outstanding. I had to look up burrata cheese. Burrata, meaning "buttery" in Italian, is a fresh cheese made from a mix of mozzarella and cream. The thin shell of the cheese is a pasta filata curd made of buffalo and/or cow's milk mozzarella, while the insides contain a soft, doughy, stringy mixture of curd and fresh cream. When you cut open a Burrata, it oozes with buttery and creamy panna containing scraps of mozzarella. The cream has a rich flavor and must be eaten immediately. So, I'm on the hunt for burrata now. The cutlet itself was thin, crispy and perfect. Almost tasted like veal. I've followed dozens of chicken parm type recipes but could never get my cutlets like this. The penne could have been more al dente. The deserts we chose ,chocalate pudding and red vellvet cake were ok. Friendly staff.

This place closed. They reopen an amazing dinner. Great fresh food always delicious…read more I only wish they would have more gluten free food. It's now called Manasquan Diner

As luck would have it, I scored a reservation at Buoys on a busy Saturday night in Manasquan…read more Thanks to an Instagram post, I became intrigued and started stalking the reservations. Persistence paid off. Right off the bat, I loved the atmosphere. We sat outside at picnic tables, and the whole place had a seashore surfer chic vibe. Basically, it felt like a cool little beach hut. They don't take themselves too seriously, but the food was absolutely delicious and refreshing. One thing that makes Buoys unique is that there is one seating each evening with a fixed menu. Everyone is there for the same experience, enjoying the exact same meal together. I really loved that. We were given buckets of ice for our wine, and we were off to the races. The meal was a good mixture of shared dishes and individual entrées, which really fit the atmosphere. They don't alter the food for anyone's preferences. We had a food allergy in our group, so I reached out ahead of time. They were accommodating for the most part and very nice about it. I give Buoys five stars because, while it doesn't take itself too seriously, it takes the food pretty seriously. The whole place is just cool. I've never had a tasting menu that included chicken wings. Tuna "Chorizo," barro, pineapple, herb salad Imagine a tuna tartare with a chorizo vibe. It was stunning and delicious. Everyone at the table loved it. I know pineapple isn't everyone's favorite, but it was the perfect way to balance the smoky chorizo flavors. It was innovative and really memorable. Chicken Wings Jimmy Nardello peppers, savory ranch, 'nduja Getting a plate of chicken wings on a tasting menu was such a surprise. They were covered in this incredible pepper sauce, and oh my God, they were so good. They were perfect for the whole beach, post-surfing, laid-back vibe. That's all I can say. If you're lucky enough to get an extra chicken wing, you're scoring. Orecchiette Fra Diavolo, squid, scungilli, garlic crumb Served family style, this was probably my least favorite dish of the night, but it was still good. The garlic crumb on top made the dish. I found myself trying to get bites with the crumb because it added so much flavor. . Bucette ( Bavette ) Polenta - Miso onions I googled it- Bavette (pronounced bah-VET) is a flavorful cut of beef from the lower sirloin/flank area. It's sometimes called flap steak) Polenta, miso onions, chimichurri By the time the beef came along, I was pretty full. The bavette, similar to hanger steak, was cooked perfectly, charred on the outside and red on the inside. I loved it. I ended up taking it home and enjoyed it the next day. The chimichurri sauce was delicious. Salmon Lentil gremolata, parsnip purée Sadly, no one at our table ordered the salmon, so I can't report on it. Cronut Banana pudding, peanut butter, chocolate mousse Who doesn't love a cronut? Well, this one put all the others to shame. Banana pudding, peanut butter, chocolate mousse. Yum, yum, yum. Again, I've never had a tasting menu that fit its atmosphere so well. Everyone was having a terrific time. Because there is only one seating and one menu, everyone in the restaurant was enjoying the exact same meal together. It created a really fun energy in the room. I peeked into the kitchen, and it couldn't have been much bigger than a food truck. They were working like a well-oiled machine, sending out the same beautifully prepared courses to the entire restaurant. It was pretty impressive to watch. I can't wait to go back. I think I'd better start stalking reservations now for late August or September.

Super fun experience getting to try their 5 course testing menu. The timing of the meal and the…read moreportions were good that we weren't leaving hungry and we weren't leaving overly stuffed. I would definitely recommend for a fun date night by the shore!
