When our order came out both dishes were cold. We were disappointed however, when we told the server he apologized and took them back. Our new dishes came out quickly and the food was hot. Our server again was apologetic and friendly. I had high hopes for a new breakfast place and initially was very disappointed however the quick, friendly and accommodating server really saved the experience. For that reason we will return. A bit pricey but the food was good! Caramel latte was good and fresh squeezed OJ! :)

On Mother's Day Sunday, there were several groups waiting outside to be seated, so my boyfriend and I were concerned about the wait. Fortunately, they took our name and number down and ~10 minutes later, I received a text and we were seated! The inside is cutely decorated and nice and bright! The menu has many options and there was even a Mother's Day specials menu. We got the avocado toast and chicken sandwich with turkey bacon on the side and sweet potato fries substituted for normal fries. The food came out relatively quickly and everything looked delicious! The bread of the avocado toast was very thick and I could tell that fresh avocado was used and smashed for the toast! I do wish that the bread itself was toasted more and maybe with butter, but it was still delicious! The side salad was also refreshing but could use some dressing. Overall, I was happy with my avocado toast! My boyfriend enjoyed his chicken sandwich and noted that the chicken was juicy and the fries were good as well. We enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back! We noticed that a nearby mom received a complimentary compact mirror from the staff in celebration of mother's day which was cute.

I was debating getting a guava croissant and my thought was to grab it on the way out, but they were all out by the time I was ready to leave :( just another excuse to visit again sooner though.

That said, I'm disappointed with the way the shop is being managed. I'm not sure if the gentleman I encountered was the manager or the owner, but I've been there twice now and both times there were issues with overcharging. The first time, I noticed it but chose not to say anything. This past weekend, another customer spoke up after being charged for more bagels than he actually ordered and received. The gentleman handling the situation was extremely rude, and when it was proven they were wrong, he simply threw the money back onto the counter. It was very unprofessional and uncomfortable to witness. Please continue making your bagels the way you do because they're excellent, but customer service and professionalism matter too. There are plenty of bagel shops around, and people want to feel respected when they walk into a business.

Turning Point in Holmdel was hands down the perfect choice for breakfast. We lucked out with a…read morebeautiful morning, so we grabbed a table on the outdoor patio and enjoyed the sunshine. We arrived early and had no problem finding a seat, but this place gets busy fast. If you're planning a later visit, I definitely recommend joining the waitlist ahead of time. Turning Point has earned a loyal following throughout New Jersey for its fresh, made-from-scratch breakfast and brunch menu, quality ingredients, and excellent coffee selection. It's easy to see why it's become a favorite destination for breakfast lovers. We kicked off our meal with mimosas (yes, it's BYOB, so bring your favorite bottle of champagne!). As a coffee fanatic, I couldn't pass up their Hawaiian Kona Blend French Press coffee. Ever since my first trip to Hawaii, Kona has been my favorite coffee, and Turning Point does it right. Each pot is ground to order, brewed with purified water, and brought to your table to finish steeping. When you're ready, you slowly press the stainless steel filter, releasing the rich flavors, aromatic oils, and smooth crema. Every sip is bold, incredibly smooth, and packed with flavor. If you're a coffee lover, this is an absolute must. For breakfast, we ordered: Breakfast Combo - Two slices of thick-cut French toast, two eggs over easy, and a side of their refreshing citrus-dressed mixed greens. The French toast was light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, making for a classic breakfast done exceptionally well. Nantucket Benedict - A toasted English muffin topped with generous chunks of cracked lobster, plum potatoes, thick-cut smoked bacon, fresh avocado slices, and finished with a bright lemon-cilantro hollandaise sauce. It was an incredible combination of flavors that balanced richness with freshness in every bite. Everything that came to the table was absolutely mouthwatering. Honestly, the photos don't do these dishes justice--you have to experience them for yourself. A special shoutout to our server, Adam, who was outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, and constantly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. From the delicious food and exceptional coffee to the outstanding service and relaxing outdoor seating, Turning Point in Holmdel delivered an outstanding breakfast experience. If you're looking for one of the best breakfast and brunch spots in the area, this one should absolutely be on your list.

Great breakfast/ brunch chain! I've been to a few different locations before (Little Silver), but…read moreit was my first time dining here. The weather was gorgeous so we were able to sit outside, and luckily we got seated right away even without a reservation. My husband and I usually go the route of splitting the breakfast combo, so we get a sweet and savory item (and the bill is lower than if we each got our own entrees). We got the breakfast combo and just added a side of sourdough toast and avocado. Only $2 charge for the avocado side which was nice! Everything was decent, but I've definitely had better brunch in the area, which is why it's 4 stars instead of 5.

I mean, who would go to an Italian market to ask for something other than premium Italian cuisine & delicacies am I right? Well apparently my black ass because the cute blond Caucasian girl behind the counter thought it was wise to ask me completely randomly "Ummm sirrr did you order the fried chicken & grilled chicken"??? SWEAR I'm not lying and you can't make that up. I ordered probably one of the most Jersey White Italian dude sandwiches of all time with sliced Mozzarella on it . Why you asking me if I ordered fried chicken at an Italian Market?! Was it because I was the only brother in there? Lmfao it's honestly just more funny than insulting just wanted to share this experience. The sandwich was pretty decent however. They told me they make their roast beef in house which was nice. I'd possibly return to try something else. Just cool it with the stubble context racism & teach proper customer service educate to the youth in there. Classic European market vibes that was nice I'd say.

I received friendly and lighthearted service from the man who took my order. One thing that I thought was pretty cool and have never seen before was a "color wheel" for coffee. It was a visual way to show your preferences on what your preferences are on coffee appearance once the milk is added. My chicken salad sandwich was delicious, not too filling and made on very soft enjoyable bread. Room for improvement: Maybe because I stopped in at 1 pm on a Wednesday I felt like the seating area was poorly maintained. The floor really needed to be swept so it actually felt like of dirty sitting there eatting. There were a handful of people spread out with their laptops etc. One person was actively taking a call so it felt like you at work with them. Another had a small dog that she was carrying around people eatting while the leash/harness laid on the floor near her table. I'm all for dogs being allowed to be in eateries but the whole sit in experience felt dirty for me (especially based on the price I paid) and wouldn't be something I'd repeat. Long story short, the customer service while ordering is great but take your order to go.
