    Nice little shop, a good variety of cheeses and meats to make a nice board. Plenty of cracker, jam and honey options. Folks were knowledgeable and friendly.

    Man oh man. This is a special place. I hope it never closes. This is a true local shop that I love supporting. I don't live in the area, but I still drive over here to get my goodies. Love coming over just to get some really good parmesan. I will also travel here to make my charcuterie board. Always has knowledgeable cheese folk that give good advice. Such a gem!

    My partner and I walked by this store in 2020 before they opened under new ownership, making a note that we wanted to visit at some point. We popped in on a late Saturday afternoon to check out what cheeses we could find and the shop didn't disappoint. There's a very nice, unique selection available, so after much debate, we finally decided on one to try. The staff were helpful with our entire transaction, making our cheese adventure pleasant. There's also a small variety of other goods like bread, crackers, jams, etc. This would be a fantastic place to stop if you're visiting people and want to bring something a little different.

    Great selection of cheeses.

    Tucked in between all the eateries on "restaurant row" on Union Pl, is a little gem with European flair. Clean, cozy, and quaint. It has an extensive and exquisite selection of European, American, and even NJ local artisanal cheeses. Prices rage around $20-25 per Lb, but some are even more pricey. We picked up a 1/3lb 'Brie Fermier', and a 1/3lb 'Roomano 4 year go', as well as a fresh baguette for a total of $18.50. Can't wait to try!!! Mmmm... The boutique also carries meats in the back. Saw some prosciutto, speck, salami... chorizo, pate, and probably more. If you are a fan of good cheese, this a spot worth a visit.

    Darn good, pricey but quality cheese always is, no? I do miss Paul and Pam, but it's nice to have a local cheesemonger next town over.

For $125/person, I had expected better tasting food though. The small appetizers (spinach salad, prosciutto, Parmesan, olives) may have been put together from a grocery store. For the pasta that we rolled out, the staff only added a plain tomato sauce. The side of vegetables was overcooked and mushy. Tiramisu was all right. We can blame the taste and texture of the pasta on ourselves, because we made it, but I had expected the rest of the food prepared by professionals to be better. No drinks were included -- Healthy Italia is BYOB. There was a nice intro video from the owner telling us about her history and philosophy. She said that she doesn't measure ingredients, and only mixes by feel. How does one teach a cooking class like this? If someone is taking a cooking class, they are less experienced and need precise measurements and instructions. Our flour and water were measured for us, so I guess they do measure something. We were never told the measurements, so didn't have any recipe or any specific learnings to take home. I enjoyed the social time with my group, and especially the long table set out for our group in true Italian fashion. It made us feel like a big cohesive family. However, for $125/person, I felt like we could have had a true learning experience elsewhere or had a much better Italian dinner at a restaurant with drinks. In fact, on the subsequent evening, a few individuals from our group went to a restaurant and ordered similar items served at this cooking class, and the food was remarkably better. And yes, it was less than $125/person with drinks.

    I have driven by Al's Prime Meat & Deli hundreds of times but it was never the right time to visit…read more Sometimes they were closed and other times I will have already eaten. Recently I made it a point to visit to pick up a sandwich for lunch and I'm really glad I did! Al's is very clean and welcoming. When you walk in the cashier counter is to the left, set at a right angle to that is the deli counter where sandwiches are assembled. The menu is mounted on the wall towards the back. To the right is a seating area. Across from the cashier is a fridge with various pasta dishes ready to heat up and eat along with some baked goods and lots of different kinds of chips to go with your sammich. I wound up ordering the Red & White Russian which includes Roast Beef, Turkey, Swiss, Horseradish, Deli Mustard, Lettuce, Tomato & Onion. You can have it pressed by request but I did not do so. I also ordered a side order of macaroni salad. The Red & White Russian was really good! The size was perfect and the bread was soft and chewy. There was a good amount of meat and cheese and I really liked the mustard and horseradish flavors. The macaroni salad was great. I would definitely get both of these again! I'm glad I made it a point to stop at Al's and I plan to do so again in the future!

We called ahead for a couple sandwiches and they were ready within 20 minutes on a Saturday morning. That's pretty impressive as we near the days of summer sandwiches. When I arrived they still needed a few minutes to finish our order up, but I needed that order to nervously make sure I was picking chips out that everyone would like in the car. They said they would be fine with anything but I don't believe anyone would be fine with just any chip. I ended up getting like 6 bags for 3 people. We left with a heavy bag of sandwiches and chips and turned this into a car meal on our way down the shore. It was the perfect sandwich! The red & white had chicken cutlet, greens, roasted red peppers, & moz on a ciabatta bread and I added avocado. Delicious and will be getting ahead. This would be a great spot for lunch and reading the reviews, it looks like they also make a great breakfast sandwich and they cater. With many more drives down the shore, I will need many more car sandwiches. Happy to know a great spot to get them!
