“I have heard about this restaurant for many years, but this was my first time visiting. My dining partner and I did not have a reservation, but we lucked out by securing the last two counter seats overlooking the kitchen. I did not know that it was BYOB, so I didn't take advantage of that. I preferred to taste more menu items rather than get an entree. The soup du jour was a savory sweet potato bisque with chopped pecans and dried cranberries. It was well-seasoned and almost had a little kick to it. This soup pumped life into my chilled, rainy autumn night bones. Next, I had the local beet salad with multicolored beets, soft goat cheese, pickled red onions, and maple-cider vinaigrette. The flavors were balanced perfectly and I was so pleased I had ordered it. I also had the pulled pork mac n cheese, which was also very good. My partner had a house salad, and he enjoyed it. I was fairly jealous of the person dining to my left, as she was served two decadent looking desserts. I definitely want to return another time to sample more items. My compliments to the chef!”

25 Brick Blvd, Brick Township, NJ 08723, United States

”We ordered the shrimp pad Thai. It was too sweet. The flounder did not look appetizing and did not taste fresh. The crazy beef roll and the crazy eel roll were delicious, and so was the fried rice. The salmon salad was fresh, and the tuna salad was tasty. They do not serve alcohol and I am not sure about BYOB.”

”We tried Me want cookie and Owl we coffee. Both were very good. Service was lively and was fun seeing the ice cream rolled in front of us.”

”Title: A Sweet Twist on Nashville Heat I recently tried the hot Nashville chicken rice bowl, and overall, the experience was quite delightful. The well-cooked rice and flavorful chicken added depth to the dish, but my taste buds were surprised by the sweetness of the signature sauce. While the combination with the sweet slaw was a unique twist, I found the overall sweetness a bit overwhelming, especially since I was expecting a spicier kick. Despite the deviation from the expected heat level, the dish earned a solid 4 stars for its well-executed components and inventive flavor profile.”

507 Crooks Ave, Clifton, NJ 07011, United States

”The girls and I got together to get dinner and wanted Portuguese. When we arrived I parked in the private lot. We walked into a nice restaurant. Adolfo was our server, and he was great. I started with the red sangria, which was only $7, and it was tasty. For my meal, I got the mussels and a side of yellow rice. They both were so tasty! My friends got the cod and the stuffed snapper, and they said they really enjoyed it. It also looked so tasty. The bill was super affordable, and I enjoyed my time.”

”It is not a July 4th celebration without corn from Stella's. Love this farm and all the stuff that they offer”

92 N Main St, Windsor, NJ 08561, United States

”So i’ve been seeing lots of advertisements for this Chocolatier so i decided to go check it out. I went to their Hightstown (West Windsor) location. The store is very nice with tons of unique products to choose from. They do not accept credit cards only debit and cash (or at least the day I was there). Their location is in a warehouse park so if it were not for their directional signs I don’t think I would have been able to find it. I will definitely be back again.”

2115 River Rd, Egg Harbor City, NJ 08215, United States

”Went for the first time today & couldn’t be happier! We got frozen mussels & frozen clam juice, fresh scallops, fresh shrimp, & fresh top neck clams. We made shrimp cocktail & linguine & clam sauce tonight. Every single clam opened & was tender & delicious! We also bought Kelchner’s cocktail sauce (family favorite) & we couldn’t believe how much more fresh it tasted compared to when we buy it at ShopRite. Also, they were so welcoming & friendly. The woman at the counter took the time to explain things to us & help us out. We’re already planning our next visit!”

”Went for a late dinner with my beautiful wife. I had the chicken rice soup (gluten free) which was as good as homemade. I also had a Sausage Gluten Free pizza. The pizza was one of the best gluten free pies I’ve had. Cooked perfectly, fresh ingredients and tasted amazing. Service was awesome, price was on point and the atmosphere was very inviting. I also saw that they have a ton of other gluten free options. Excellent place all around, will definitely be back.”

”Acasia Thai is truly a hidden gem. I’ve tried several Thai restaurants in the area, and Acasia is the absolute best. Their Tom Yum soup is literally one of my favorite things to eat! Every dish we’ve tried is incredibly flavorful with fresh ingredients. Give Acasia a try and you will definitely be happy that you did!”

”Small but mighty cafe shop that specializes in coffee and bubble teas and also has delicious snacks to enjoy. Can someone say, filled waffles? Yum! It truly has a bit of everything. So much so, their menu is changing, yet again to accommodate the increasing things they are offering. Look up at the board to see their regular menu and then look to the sides, to find their latest specials. Hopefully, during the summer, they will offer their Snowflake desserts (Korean shaved ice dessert with sweet toppings) back. Upon arriving and perusing their menu, I saw two of my favorite words, double espresso! I was so ordering it. The cashier recommended the Dalgato Cafe Latte. Their Dalgona Coffee is very different from the regular Dalgona coffee’s I’ve had prior. Theirs is actually the Korean Dalgona Candy which features the Honeycomb Toffee on top. This drink as it is on par with the Brown Sugar drinks, I’ve tasted. It is sweet and you can have two (2) shots of espresso, poured on top. It sounded so appealing, Hubby decided to request one of his own. Neither of us requested any bobas but you can add some if you so desire. They do offer a choice of milk for your drinks. In addition to their regular milk, as well as skim, they also offer alternative milk such as soy, almond, and Lactaid milk. This small cafe is tight and due to the pandemic, it is hard to fit many people in and safely social distance. Currently, about 3 people are allowed inside while maintaining a 6 ft distance. After you place your order, you can either wait outside, where they provided some chairs for you or you can be seated inside your car. The cashier will ask you what is the make and color of your car and they will bring the purchased items to you. The wonderful employees are all very efficient and service is quick.”

”First time here. Upon walking in, I ALWAYS check out how the pizza looks. All of the pizza on the shelf looked good. This time, I just ordered a plain slice to go. It was DELICIOUS!!! The thin crust was perfect, and the sauce and cheese were on point. I'm definitely returning !!!”

”If I could give 6 start for Service, I would. Popped in just before 4pm and the entire team were welcoming and happy to assist. The indoor dining area is dark but this adds a nice charm to it. There's something about the atmosphere that makes you smile. All the staff are having a great time and it rubs off. The food though... Delicious! Absolutely thrilled I chose this place. The Ropa Vieja was flavoured perfectly and the portion size was almost too much, almost. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving some food and service from the heart.”
