    Tropical Hut Express is a recently opened Filipino BBQ spot. It's a small spot found in the Chelsea Place Plaza, with a few tables, but best for take-out. Their options are extremely affordable, whether served in a combo meal with rice/salad, a la carte, or catering tray style. On the menu, there's a savory and hearty adobo, empanadas, beef stew, bbq skewers dressed in an in-house marinade, and lumpia fried to order. What more can you ask for?

    I had Tropical Hut Catering in Old Bridge 10 years ago for my high school graduation! Randomly my Mom in Law asked about where we could order from for a family members small birthday party and I for some reason thought about my graduation party so long ago. When we looked into it, we noticed the express location in Hazlet and she decided to order lunch from then to try! We did the Boodle Package so we could try a multitude of things (and empanadas). IT WAS ALL SO GOOD. I'm so impressed and I'm glad my family liked our lunch. They were amazed and very happy with everything we ate. To be honest, I wish I lived closer to Hazlet so I could order more often for myself. After trying this platter, we are dying to try more of the menu! Thank you Tropical Hut Express! You all were so very nice when we came in too so thank you for the welcoming atmosphere!

    Five stars for Union Beach Grill! We stopped in for both breakfast and lunch and were seriously…read moreimpressed. The pancakes with sausage were spot-on, and the shaved ribeye over fries with cheese, peppers, and onions was absolutely delicious. The food was great across the board, but what really made the experience stand out was the owner--so friendly and welcoming, it truly felt like being fed by family. The place is clean, inviting, and just has an awesome vibe. A+ all the way--I'll definitely be back!

    There's not a lot of businesses in Union Beach. I would have driven past without GPS. I was…read moretold by a neighbor to check out this local gem! Pulling into the parking lot next door, I see a mermaid statue across the street that someone lovingly added a winter coat to. It's that kinda small town. A cute eclectic eatery with a French cafe motif on the wall and Johnny cash and Elvis Presley mugshots on the opposite side. A vintage Pepsi machine sits near the counter and 8 clean tables greeted me. The menu is small but impressive. Staff are kind and welcoming. Ok. Let's get onto the food- the menu has burgers, cheese steaks, pasta and all day breakfast. A big specials board sits high above the counter. The portions are large and the prices are just right. It was midday and I wanted eggs. Western Omelette did not disappoint. Home fried potatoes were tasty and the coffee was very good. I would definitely give this place another try for dinner. Union beach sweet cracker chicken looked interesting as well as a chicken cheese steak. Food tastes home cooked and is served with a side of sass. Definitely worth it if you are looking for an alternative to your usual spot.
