Pete and Elda's Bar/Carmine's Pizzeria

Reviewed By Mark Z

I had an appointment at the Social Security office in Neptune, so I decided to go to here for lunch. It was crowded, so I sat at the bar, which entitled me to order a bar pie (which I had with mushrooms). If you like thin crust pizza (to my mind, the best kind), you'll love it here.

Lubrano's Trattoria

Reviewed By W8LT3R

This place is a hidden gem. Located in a strip mall anchored by a Shop rite supermarket just off Route 34 South in Manasquan. They offer great food and great service in a causal, family dining atmosphere, with an upscale menu and decor. This was our first visit to Lubrano’s Trattoria and we were very impressed.My wife was given a gift card for a meal at Lubrano’s so we decided to use it on a lazy Sunday evening. We arrived at 5PM to a nearly full parking lot but did manage to find an open parking spot close to the restaurant – one of a few spots that night. As we approached the restaurant there were some nice patio furniture – chairs and tables for two with umbrellas - on the sidewalk outside the entrance. The interior of the restaurant was divided into two sections. You enter the restaurant into the smaller section in the front which is a takeout pizzeria that does a brisk business. As we entered, a man at the counter, asked “To pick up or place an order?”. When we said we were there for the restaurant he told us we had 30 min wait. So, we gave him our names and sat on the patio furniture just outside the door. Then our waitress came out to get us after just a 10 mins. She led us into the back section of the restaurant which was a much larger, upscale dining room with dark, wooden tables and chairs and a wall of red brick with the name Lubrano’s stenciled across it. Tables were arranged in rows to accommodate small and large groups. Our waitress took us to a private table for 4 against the red brick wall. The noise level of the dining room was medium –there was significant background noise, but not so much that you could not carry on a conversation without shouting. At the start of our meal, our waitress brought us to a plate of pesto to share – that goes with the olive oil that was already on the table - and a basket of toasted, warm French bread to dip in it. The soft bread with the toasted crust dipped in the oil and pesto was delicious. To drink we both ordered the unsweetened, blueberry flavored lemonade we saw someone else drinking at another table. Drinks were served in large plastic cups with straws - which was convenient. Because of their size we did not finish our drinks in the restaurant and took them home with us - cups and all - along with doggy bags of our food at the end of the meal. For entree's, Lubrano’s offers an extensive menu of Italian dishes that goes beyond the standard pizzeria offerings of Lasagna, Meat Balls and Spaghetti, Eggplant Parmesan, etc. The menu even had a section for those who want to eat a low carb meal. I ordered the spicy, garlicky salmon with mash potatoes which was listed as a customer favorite on the low carb menu – you can skip the mash potatoes if you really want this meal to be low carb. My wife ordered the shrimp risotto. My salmon filled a large plate and the mash potatoes were artfully sculpted to look like a white pineapple with green leaves sticking out of the top as a garnish, and it was covered with garlic cloves and red sauce. My wife’s meal was equally as large with lots of shrimp over a bed of rice. Both meals were huge and delicious. The price for entrees here can run you from $15 to $35 but you get a lot of food for your money. For casual dining the presentation and the food here were more like a fine dining experience, only with a lot more food than you typically get at fine dining restaurants for the price. After eating two thirds of our meal we were stuffed and did not have room for dessert.

Reviewed By Pilsner22

I’m not sure what’s going on here, however the old Delvetto’s was very good then it started to slide downhill, now it’s coming back up. Maybe they changed chefs maybe they hired some different people but the restaurant is getting better. For whatever the reason I’m happy this neighborhood Italian restaurant is still here and functioning.

Christie's Italian Seafood Grill

Reviewed By hankgiant

This was our first visit. This is a BYOB, we did not know this, but the restaurant has an owner's bottle available for $25 which was a very good wine that solved the problem. The atmosphere was just right. Service was outstanding. I had the Lamb Osso Buco. There were at least 5 items I wanted to try. Everyone enjoyed their selections. We are planning to return soon. They recommend reservations for the weekend. We were early and they were able to seat us ( party of 4)

Visited December 23. Only 3 tables total at time. Person seating people was watching football. Was told by patron at bar we were waiting. Told us to seat ourselves while she gets menus. Waitress showed up at table about 10 minutes later. Extremely slow service. Ordered a martini. Charged $19. Glass slivers were on rim of glass. Not even an apology. Food was ordered. Appetizer flatbread was very good. Meals left alot to be desired. Penne with bolognese sauce was a barely warm pink sauce. Tasted like vodka sauce with meat tossed in. Sprite was just seltzer. Had to request new. Again waited a very long time for waitress to bring anything requested. She was busy talking to other staff. Sent 6 year over to her to give her our payment since we were waiting again. Hate to see service with a crowd if it was this bad with no one there. I would not recommend this place.

It is rare that from appetizers to desserts, one finds zero to be critical about; such was our experience at Lemon! Each and every dish was excellent; flawlessly executed, generously portioned and uniquely plated. Rounding out our pleasurable experience was the hands-on presence of Chef/owner Ash, a wonderfully engaging, warm and accommodating host!

3 doors to get in. Seems like you're going to a secret club. Once inside, they come out and seat you. The waiter was great. The food was delicious. We had blackened tuna, and chicken piccata. The dressings are homemade and so good. It wasn't even as expensive as I thought it would be, which was a great surprise.

This is your basic Italian restaurant/pizzeria.. except for the special soups! You can get all the usual fare, the pastas, the chicken and veal and fish dishes. And they're all fine. So is the pizza. But a couple of times a week, the chef whips up one of his special soups. Cream of carrot, Tuscan vegetable soups, even Italian wedding. Those soups are incredible -- and often the reason we go there. Oh, the pizza is pretty good too.

We’ve been to Tony’s many times over the years. Always good and some times very good. Stopped in again recently for some pizza and chicken meals. Soup, salad and garlic bread were all good. Pizza good but on the smaller than previous times. Chicken meals served with a side of pasta were all good. They’ve still got one of the best sauces anywhere. Pleasant service and prices were ok.
