Charlie Browns Lakewood remodeled ,improved ??

The charlie Browns has been remodeled ,But the same old NY people are stealing the bread ect from the salad bar ..The manager is somewhat of a clown and not a people person ,he should address this issue ,because the $ is passed on to those that don't
.The menue has changed slightly and the chips @ the bar are a good addition ,the food is just ok ,but ..It amazes me how they stay afloat ,but they sure do !

Lakehust has many yahoos which can be cosidered riff raff ,but as we know that is your normal bar crowd .A customer is a customer ..

I second 709 ,but bring a heavy pocketbook after happy hour .Seafood is the thing of choice in 709 !

Wegmans / Sams Club in Ocean County ?

As we all know Ocean county is a wastland when it comes to food .We can use Wegmans and/or Sams clubs.
Why are'nt they in the plans .It seems that the demographic will suport either one ...The New Walmart on hwy 37 has staled .If the Walmart goes through will Sam's be far behind ?
Any one with an answer ??

Went to Kelly's in Neputne City to try some good cornbeef ,but was surprised that thier level has gone down hill ,the lunch crowd was gone and food was just OK .
TP you may have chance to corner some of the irish market .
The word on the street is lower drink prices or suffer loose of bar customers !!

Let's face it the Corn beef is awful ..it is suppose to be a staple in irish resturants ,but @ TP it is not only salty ,but tough and poor quailty .If this is not fixed soon with a much better product it will cost the TP a percentage of bussiness !!

Chilled and frozen are to two different things Professor ..The thrust of my post was that this place has to pay attention to detail and the beer glass is not that important ,the product they pour and serve is the real focus

709 Arnold is very good ,but bring a heavy pocketbook ..Chef Mike is not bashful about his prices ..They have a good crowd ,but economy has taken it's toll on 709 ..It is summer and you can still get in with little wait

The place need alot of work .. The beer MUST be cold !! Chill the glasses
The 4 owners need to be more pro-active ,since none have been in the Eatery bussiness before.
They may want to spend some time @ Kelly's in Nepunce City to find out how it is done .The Corn Beef @ TP is subpar and rye bread is Shop Rite's own ,Maybe try Glory's Rye ...one of the best .The hand cut fries are soggy from oil that is not hot enought . They could make it ,but they have to push hard in the right direction ..The service was luke warn ,in need of training and social skills

Danny's Steakhouse Red Bank ?

Went there recently before going to Count Basie Th..
The Potterhouse steak was the high lite .The sides were good but not great .The real Down side was the service was so SLOW and young ( ! hr 40 min ) that it made the meal painful. Was this just an aberration or is this the norn @ this joint ?
Another down side were mixed drinks were $9 !!!

NEW Three B's Bistro Lakehurst problem !!

I have gone to Luigi's many times and I have always been treated very well by Jenna .I will say Luigi's food has some great items and not so good stuff .Thier prices are reasonable and the portions are large . They will also alter a dish or make a dish if they have the ingrediants .The bar crowd is a little seedy ..

NEW Three B's Bistro Lakehurst problem !!

I finally did get a reply saying the because of the strong senior demographic many of the dishes must be make bland ,but they could jazz them up apon request ..I do not know if this makes sence
.I was told by a chef many years ago that if you want a good resturant you need exceptional food and to achive this the side dishes have to as good or better then the main item .I do not know if this place is willing to go the extra mile. Time will tell

NEW Three B's Bistro Lakehurst problem !!

Bistro 44 just lost the chef and is closing .I live in( North )Toms River and it is a real wasteland for good eateries .Three B's does have a limited number of good menu items ,but this place could be a gold mine if they just paid attention to detail and went tne extra mile !

NEW Three B's Bistro Lakehurst problem !!

I have been to this place an number of times since it opened and find the food good ,but not great .They seem to be content with ok main dishes with weak sides . The place is up scale ,nice crowd , with good service .but..The owner /manager is invisable to customers and is more interested in the paper work then to take care of customers' needs and requests . It is my understanding he has been in the resturant business before ,but he has never even said hello to me or my wife who have come to this place on a regular basis . I also tip well .. I have emailed them 3 times with my thoughts ,with no reply ..

The only reason we come back is It is really the only show in town in the Ocean county waste land of good eateries .
Has anyboby else had this type of problem and how did you reslove it ,without just stop freqenting the place

Peter Luger is the # one Porterhouse steak house in the USA . The reason they are # one is ( Price (for the best aged beef ), Taste and Quality ) They all go together ...
