Restaurants near Cliffwood

“Gave a 5 for the atmosphere although I haven’t been there. I imagine it’s top notch based off of the customer service experience I had with a young gentleman on the phone today. I made an Uber Eats order and called to make an adjustment to my sandwiches. The young man on the phone was professional and did not hesitate to make sure that my accommodations would be granted. I wish I caught his name but the call took place at approximately 3:36PM on 1OCT25. He was exactly what I expect when calling an eatery. Prompt, direct, and accommodating. No questions asked, no back and forth. As someone who works in the industry it was greatly appreciated.”

“Dinner was great. First timers. We had shrimp in garlic appetizer, combo with 1/2 chicken and ribs-pork, rice and fries. And 1/2 chicken with rice and veggies. Everything was of good quality and very delicious. We’d order from you guys again. Thank you for a wonderful dinner!”

“If you're in the Matawan/Cliffwood Beach area, come check this place out. Great food and the staff is super nice”

“One of the best Starbucks I ever have been to my favorite spot literally down the street from my house popped in nearly 20 minutes before closing. They had dropped the cash and they did the awesome thing of still taking care of my order when I told you it is a one service all the way I truly appreciate every single barista here at this location.”

“The amazing GM and her morning crew gave me the most delicious breakfast fresh everything and they really care about their customers. 10/10 everytime I walk in this place in the morning they all deserve a raise! - Loyal customer David ”

“Great”

“Giuliano’s Restaurant is a place where the food is absolutely fantastic. I’ve never ordered something that I didn’t love. The staff are all wonderful. From the first time you walk-in the doors they make you feel like you’re part of their family. I highly highly recommend this restaurant.”

“After spending almost $300 for dinner they wanted to charge me for a second cup of coffee. What a poor policy. They give enough bread for two people when we were four and wanted to charge us for more bread. That's nickel and dimming”

“I am a regular at Seabass Taverna! I love the atmosphere, the employees are so nice, the food and drink are amazing. I highly recommend.”

“Had to drive over 45 minutes to get to this place. I’m giving this a 5 star because this is probably the best fish soup you are going to get in NJ. There are however much better places for this in Flushing Queens which would be double the driving time for me. The fish soup is good. Not the best. For the best, my go to place is still this place called Fish With You in Flushing. Give this place a try! Everything is good.

Update: had the comb for 2. The fish came under flavored. Needed some time to marinade in the soup. After it was better. We got the fried pork belly which is good. But can’t have too much because it is heavy. The glutinous cubes were fried so it was crispy on the outside and doughy on the inside. The syrup is used to dip and it serves as a good dessert to finish the meal off.”

“Food was yummy! The frittata and tiramisu pancakes were especially good. Our server Nichelle (hope I’m spelling that right) was so friendly and nice. 10/10 food and 10/10 service.”

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.”

“Food was awesome, we ordered Banjara chicken,l highly recommended. Other food Afghani chicken and Naan was awesome. Service and atmosphere was amazing.Highly recommended this restaurant.”

“My wife and I ate here last night. We were looking for a unique experience where quality was high and we could share new memories. Omakase Ichi definitely exceeded all expectations.

First, if you are coming here, you should have an open mind as they are selecting all your sushi pieces and you are going to be led in this dance. Chef selects his fish based on availability and quality. That means no two visits here will be exactly the same. You are also experiencing works of art that impress your vision as well as your taste. You will be thoroughly satisfied in every way.

The staff is friendly and attentive, and we learned new things with each offering. We cannot wait to return.”

“Absolutely Delicious!

“This is a must try! I can’t say enough. The best quality meat. The sides and sandwiches are unmatched. So happy to have a place like this . If you haven’t tried this yet ,you should. The hype is real!”

“We highly recommend Patricia's of Holmdel. We have frequented this establishment with our immediate family of 12 for birthdays, celebrations, and more! The environment is warm and inviting through its modern decor, enjoyable music, lighting, and seating. Tables are covered with white clothes and seating is comfortable whether inside or out. The location is well maintained and clean. The pricing is average for fine dining. The entire staff is exceptional. We enjoy all pleasantries with the staff members. It is evident that care is placed in choosing the staff. Each is professional, personable, and thorough. They make us feel like VIP every time we go, especially when John N. is our server. John N. is extremely knowledgeable of the inner workings of this establishment. We have severe food allergies and dietary restrictions. John N. illustrates such compassion towards us. He is diligent in keeping us safe, and keeps open communication with the chef when we are present. He is so kind and fun, too, in such a way that he feels like a family member. While eating at Patricia's it feels as if we are transported to a family dinner in Italy. Between the welcoming ambience, pleasant staff, and delicious food, we (without hesitation) highly recommend Patricia's of Holmdel. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“waste of money and misleading their website is glitchy and when you want to click on build a box it keeps taking u back to the first page so you can't actually build your own box... still i tried to order the 3 day cleanse and ended up with 3 orders of the powder form... warning! false advertisement!!! they advertise "Nutrient-packed" yet there are zero nutrients or vitamins in the packets which you can't see on the website and only find out what the packets arrive and you look at the nutritional info... its all zeros and pure sugar! what a scam... save your money and just make your own juice. unfortunately for me I've been really sick and in bed so I thought I'd order this to help me get better... another thing is they say its 2 day shipping but it took 4-5 days! all these packets are is flavored water packets! thats it!”

“Food was delicious, service prompt and pleasant. Ambiance is fabulous”

“Frequent customer, but always blown away with the freshness of their summer menu. The shrimply the best tacos, which was originally on a tostada last summer, was just as amazing, but didn’t sit as heavy as a tostada. Love the move to a light tortilla. The Mexi-Avo toast was so filling and the flavors melted together so nicely. Don’t forget the decor inside is so cozy, boho/havana vibe and perfect for a date or girl’s brunch. 10/10”

“Highly recommend!! Food, service and ambiance was amazing!!! Our servers were the best, shout out to Zeel & Pratik! We had the best butter chicken & chicken 65. Their kathi rolls was so good too. Zeel & Pratik recommended mango plaza for dessert, it was delicious! Will be coming back for more delicious food ??”

“I have tried Halal Guys and Adels, but honestly, their chicken over rice is the best I had in the entire USA. I am absolutely hooked I have been eating it every day for the past four months! The staff is super friendly always welcoming and easy to talk to. The place is clean and their new green sauce is a total game changer, I love it!”

“You really can't go wrong with any of Red's food.And such reasonable prices compared to other island vendors. My personal favorite is her sweet onions and bacon dog, and her chili with potato sticks. Sounds odd I know, but trust me...she has so many unique toppings to make any combo. Then my other fav is an open faced loaded knish. She also does burgers, and baked potatoes, and thee BEST CUP OF CHILI!!! RUN, DONT WALK!!! YOU'LL BE HOOKED.”

“Beautiful place . Excellent service - fantastic food and beautiful atmosphere !!!”

“My wife and I ate there for our first anniversary dinner last night, and couldn’t have had a better experience. The staff was wonderful, the food was out of this world, and we will absolutely be coming back!”

“When I express that the draw is real, that's precisely what I mean. I'm struggling to identify which aspect I relish the most, whether it's the culinary offerings, atmosphere, servers, proprietors, or parking. As I'm unable to choose just one, I must opt for all. Thank you for hosting me; I thoroughly relished every bit of my cuisine.”

“Best cafe in the area! Delicious baked good and the breakfast board is excellent! I want to eat everything when I go! Only open on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) so plan your visit!”
