Zesty Nachos
Kimberly V.

Dennys in East Brunswick Pictures is the Zesty Nachos. Came to Denny's after a concert around 10:30pm. Very empty for a Saturday night, so no wait! Food was quick to come and the server was very polite and nice. The nachos were good for a starter meal. It honestly was filling enough that I didn't need an actual meal after. The meat used was very watery tho, and the nachos themselves very quickly got soggy. Everything together was a nice combo of flavors. The meal is a very messy meal so be careful. There is a bit of a spice to the meal but nothing bad where you can't eat it. Price was really cheap for the quality you do get, just wished it was not as watery is all.

Love their kids menu

I walked in on a Wednesday morning to grab some breakfast. Only 2 employees running the whole place. 1 was standing outside having a smoke and the other was helping an older gentleman to his car. We waited for 10 minutes and finally left - went down the block to IHOP. This place has gotten a lot worse over the years and it saddens me because I used to come here everyday before school.

Nice breakfast.

I have been to the Matawan location a million times so my expectations were super high. I was…read morereally disappointed in comparison. This location does not have outdoor seating, they did not have some of the items to make the drinks on the menu and the food just wasn't the same as the matawan location. That being said, the service was incredible. Everyone was so nice and friendly and attentive. I would definitely give them another shot though

MJ's in Spotswood had the 'Dowden Brothers Band' for last night (5/29) on their website, but in…read morereality only one person was singing and playing an acoustic guitar in the bar area. Is it a false advertisement or an "one man band"? Very disappointed to say the least since we went there so we could dance to a full live band. Having one person playing in the bar area just adds more noise. A full live band is loud and energetic which drowns the noise and gets people on the dance floor and sit there tapping and/or nodding their head. Before 2026, MJ's in Spotswood had full bands playing almost every weekend. Now it is just the other way around with one or two musicians. You really need a drummer to get people on the dance floor. The Cabin restaurant in Freehold on the other hand always has full bands playing every weekend and the dance floor is always packed as well as the rest of the restaurant. We like MJ's in Spotswood since it is close by us and our friends. We hope it will bring back full bands on the weekends regularly. Also, We went to MJ's in Spotswood last Tuesday night (5/26) for their prime rib dinner special. It didn't come with a salad. Asked for an end cut but they said they don't serve them. The prime rib on both plates had globs of un-rendered fat and gristle but no crust. We spent half of our time trimming the fat and gristle away. The cheese on the baked potato was not even melt. The bacon bits on the baked potato were so dry and hard. No butter or sour cream. The only thing good on the plate was the green beans. So not sure their prime rib dinner is worth the price.

I had a Stillwell slice and buffalo chicken slice, both of which were fresh and tasty. The buffalo chicken slice however was not spicy at all, so I'd consider getting a side of buffalo to dip/drizzle to add a kick. I also had their in house orange soda which was very good! My friend had a Sicilian slice, grandma slice, and root beer, all of which he enjoyed. We also grabbed 3 plain slices to go and the total was a little over $40, which was a little higher than expected. They have a large variety of slices which is enough to draw me in for another try. See you soon!

THE FOOD. My familiarity is limited to orders of just about…read moreeverything on the breakfast menu that meets my dietary requirements. My requirements are difficult to meet in many, many places because I have to avoid salt, sugar, beef, fats, AND ANYTHING WHITE UNBLEACHED FLOUR... These dietary needs make all my restaurant visits a scary adventure. So I constantly order different omelets, different egg only orders, and whole wheat bagels with lox. The last visit, a week ago this past Sunday, I ordered was a Greek style omelette in which I had to eliminate certain ingredients which also give me GI distress. The omelette came up wonderful and because I can only consume whole grains or ancient grains in any baked or cooked product, I ordered their gluten-free bread with my meal. This bread was delicious. And so my omelette. I only wished they had a fresh pepper grinder. (Planning to buy one and a generous supply of peppercorns and gift it to them). THE SERVICE My ginger-hair color waitress a week ago this Sunday was fabulous. Something I didn't tell her... that I was trying to get her phone number to set her up with my adult son whose girlfriend recently broke up with him and in constant pain because of a past spinal surgery. He's just 44 years old and a divorcé. I gave Ginger my car with my personal information and my son's phone number, and begged her to call him and tell her the good and the bad about meeting me at the diner. She's an excellent server. I wish to have many, many more like her in every restaurant. I go to Ginger. I love you. You're too young for me to date, but I would adopt you. AMBIANCE The ambience will match everyone's expectations. As long as those expectations match with the style and decor of a diner built around 1950 1960 or perhaps even 1970 currently, I would describe it as pleasant, clean and functional.
