Jersey Shore Restaurant Week
Basil T's in Red Bank has a great deal for Restaurant Week.
Husband and I were impressed by the portion size (considering the low price) and quality (IMO you can't go wrong at Basil T's).
For $ 20.10 they're offering a 3-course meal. I enjoyed the Caprese salad. It had surprisingly delicious tomatoes for this time of year and 2 large slices of fresh mozz with a delicious basil vinigrette dressing. For my entree I had a large portion of house-made spaghettini with 2 huge moist meatballs, in fresh tomato sauce. This was followed by a scrumptious flourless chocolate cake. I was stuffed!
Hubby had a good-sized mesculine salad as a starter, pork tenderloin saltimbocca and mini cannolis for dessert.
We're both hoping to get back before the week is over to try some of the other yummy selections. Here's a link to the menu: http://www.basilt.com/menus/specials.php
Dressed Up in Central Jersey
I would recommend Restaurant Nicholas in Red Bank. Elegant and unfussy atmosphere and the food is delicious. Even the bar area is understated, but beautiful. We like to enjoy a glass of the house champagne at the bar before dinner. Here's a link to their website..... www.restaurantnicholas.com
Holiday Pies
Emery's is my pick. We have been going there for years. Great pies reasonable prices.
Ellenville NY area brewpubs
My husband & I will be traveling to Ellenville NY this weekend and would like to know if there are any brewpubs in the area that serve good food as well as good beer. Any suggestions?
Birthday Dinner for Two- Any ideas?
I really like Trinity, but if you're looking to try something new and just as good, then I'm in agreement with some of the others here, Belford Bistro would be my pick. Wonderful food, great service and lovely decor.
As already posted it's a BYO...here's the link:

I would recommend you make reservations
Basil T in Red Bank
Is this review about Basil's in Toms River or Red Bank? I thought this thread was about the Red Bank location.
Fan's pub and grill Jackson N.J.
Been there too - never going back. Typical run-of-the-mill pizza place.
Lighthouse Restaurant in Jackson, NJ
Very mediocre food and expensive. I wouldn't waste my money.
