    Sandwich no lettuce
    Judith S.

    Love the sign about not letting stupid people in the back. But beware. Check your order closely before you leave. I just ordered a hogie with lettuce, onions and extra tomato. Salt, pepper and vinegar. Took out the sandwich to eat it. NO LETTUCE OR ONION! Who makes that sort of mistake. No lettuce? Disappointed.

    Anytime I am with my daughter near Asbury, this is our go to for breakfast. The classic egg and cheese on a hard roll is amazing!! Also, some of the smoothest coffee in town, seriously delicious.

    Rude,Rude,Rude. When I first walk in I didn't know how I felt about a restaurant that sells food and deodorant and other things like that. Any ways they had rude service over priced food. Food was not worth the price . Food was okay but service was horrible. Employee had an attitude, no hello or goodbye. I will never come back, and I hope anyone reading this will never come. Pictures don't match on the website. No inside dining.

    Dj's is a sweet little hidden away deli just off cookman. When you walk in it has a deli section and mini general store. They also have a fair sized dining / eating area on the other side of the store where we go to sit down to eat. We usually come here for breakfast and have always been delighted. Very sweet and funny staff. They are interactive warm and welcoming. You can also sit outside of the storefront which is nice. Always had a good meal here. Fruit Parfait was amazing!! It's worth checking out from the main stretch of town. Very reasonable meal. $10 person + :)

    Sweet beautiful coffee.

    If you ever go to see wrestling at the convention center and get way more shimmed up then you planned, you're going to need to put something in your belly the next morning before the hour long drive home. We headed into the swanky side of Asbury Park to find coffee and food. We drove right by it and stopped a gay dude walking his dog and asked him where the spot was for breakfast in the AP. He pointed us down three doors to DJ's Delight. Now, I don't know if Asbury Park has a big gay community but this place had two big ole rainbow flags flying out front. If you're one of those types that is full of hate and can't appreciate two people finding each other to get through this whacky world together because they both have the same set up downstairs, then don't eat here. But once you're inside its not gay at all. You go into a deli area where deli type things are happening. The nice man with his dog was now inside and told us to walk through a door towards the back. We came upon a little grocery area. My man, we need coffee and grease. We don't need cleaning supplies and crackers. He kindly told us to go a little further til we emerged in a nice little dining room. From the looks of it, we thought we were about to eat a $22 breakfast. Then the lovely server brought us some menus and we saw it was priced nicely. Time to fix our hangovers. After about 2 seconds of reading the menu for the right weapon of choice to help us combat our poor decisions from the night before, we both noticed the Gut Buster. It's a bacon, egg, sausage and cheese. But whoa whoa whoa, that's not it. They throw on a friggin hash brown patty thing. Sweet mother of greasy hangover helper. This thing means business. It was the perfect combination of all our farm yard friends putting together their time and resources to help us in our time of need. Some even gave their lives. RIP and thank you. The home fries were also seasoned nicely and had the slightest kick to them. The only down side was the orange juice was freshly squeezed from a carton. I half thought this place might have had someone in the back squeezing oranges for my vitamin C pleasures. I think the 2 sandwiches, 2 coffees, 2 orders of hash browns, and a nice glass of OJ came to like $24. Hell, at that point it could have been &1,000,000 and I wouldn't have cared. On the way out I hit up a to go coffee for the ride. Careful!!! Those containers keep the coffee at about 600 degrees. I'm sure someone on here probably would have deducted a star point for that. Probably the person that said the owner wouldn't make the toast she ordered and threw her plate in the garbage and threatened to call the cops. I find that to be really far from the truth. And if it did happen, she probably left out the side of the story where she was acting a complete asshat of a fool over some toast. In conclusion, eat here!

    Had a party of six from DC and California. The Californian tried the pork roll NJ experience for the first time. We were very impressed with the accommodating wait staff Morgan for getting us seated and served quickly. We were on a tight schedule and had to run to catch a flight. The food was excellent and freshly prepared the way you like it.

She recommended Cardinal Provisions, which had a great menu, so onward we went. It was perhaps major hubris on my end to show up at 11am and not expect a 1.5 hour wait. Well, we put our names down and took a walk to the Boardwalk. We ended up heading back a little before the 1.5 hour mark because the website where I was tracking our progress on the waitlist stopped working. We were seated at an outside table, but it was way too sunny, so I asked to be moved. They were able to accommodate us within 10-15 minutes. My mom and I opted to split two dishes, because neither of us could decide on what to order. We had the Cacio e Pepe Scrambled Eggs with breakfast sausage and garlic toast, and the Blueberry Skillet Cake with blueberry salted honey butter. First of all, our waiter did warn us that the skillet cake was huge, but we still wanted it anyways. It was, indeed, huge. But so good. Like a fluffy cake. The Cacio e Pepe eggs were phenomenal and I need to figure out how to make these at home. Service was attentive without being overbearing and we were never rushed. I think coming after 1pm is definitely the best time, since there were significantly less people waiting.

We were seated right away on a Thursday afternoon on their front sidewalk patio. I ended up ordering the Green Machine bowl (normally vegan and gluten free) but added grilled chicken to it. It was delicious! A combo of roasted broccoli, warm lentils, parsley pesto, avocado, and marinated kale. Everything was cooked perfectly, and while this is basically something I make on rotation at home, I loved the pesto sauce and will definitely be trying to replicate that on my own. Perfect lunch that left my full and not even a little sluggish. They do have a few drinks on the menu like kombucha, cold brew, and sodas, but if you are looking for anything more than that in the coffee arena, you'll need to pop by a neighboring cafe afterwards. Service was friendly but not too fast. It was a busy day and we were in no rush, so we didn't mind. All in all, a great place for a delicious brunch.

The Speakeatery made for a great backup. You order at the counter, and the service is decent. The space is long and narrow with some stool seating up front and more table and chair seating towards the back. The grill and kitchen are situated in the middle of the restaurant.
