At that point it was a small restaurant, BYOB, but it was immediately apparent that real gourmet food had finally arrived on LBI. (I still remember their version of shrimp and grits from that time.) We no longer had to put up with the prevailing surf and turf that we had unfortunately become accustomed to. Since then they've moved to their current, much bigger space and have created a beautiful, vibrant, inside-ourside restaurant that still serves excellent food (their lumache is terrific--we try not to order it every time) and has expanded to include pizzas--thin crust and very tasty; every one we've tried has been delicious. So we would definitely recommend Black Eyed Susans. The staff is welcoming, friendly, well trained. This is now a big, beautiful destination restaurant. The pizzas and beer lower the price point.

The muffins are the BEST, especially the fruit ones, and the crumb cake is nuts. It's like they bake it JUST to the point of not being raw and then top it with 60lbs of crumb. The building itself is tiny, so if there's a line outside, don't let that stop you. Things move quickly. If you're planning to pick up pies or other must-have items, definitely order ahead since you never know when they will be sold out--I've seen it happen. Nothing says summer on LBI like starting the day with a few bites of anything from here. Waking up to that pink box always puts a smile on my face. Oh, and the cold brew is like 110 octane so a little goes a long way... yet I always get a large.

Everything tasted very cheap and/or premade. The kielbasa doesn't deserve to be called that, that's some stuff from the grocery store. The Cole slaw tastes just like store bought. Everything was quite bland. Cornbread was dry. Small portion for the high price (yes it's a large amount of food but I expected more for the price). The bbq sauces on the side are better than the one on the table.

Amy lent us large catering bowls, chopped our onions and peppers for a German dinner, and made us laugh the entire time we shopped.

My family has been coming to Neptune Market for years, so this was a disappointing visit. We…read morestopped in for a quick breakfast, but what should have been a simple order ended up taking nearly an hour. All I ordered was a pork roll, egg, and cheese on a Kaiser roll with a hash brown patty. I understand they were very busy, but the wait still felt excessive for such a basic breakfast sandwich. I was also surprised to find out that after 11:00 a.m. they stop serving pancakes and omelets, even though breakfast sandwiches are still available. It would have been nice if the full breakfast menu was offered a little longer. The biggest issue for me, however, was food handling. I watched employees place dirty register receipts directly on top of prepared sandwiches, including an egg and cheese that sat with the receipt on it for several minutes. Thermal receipts aren't something I want touching my food, and it completely turned me off. I also noticed several employees with long hair and facial hair working without hairnets or beard nets, which didn't inspire confidence in the kitchen's sanitation practices. Neptune Market has always been a family favorite because the food is tasty and reasonably priced, so it's disappointing to leave this review. I hope they can improve their food handling practices and kitchen hygiene because I'd love to see them get back to the standards that kept us coming back for so many years.

Our waitress, Valentina, was so friendly and took the time to walk us through the menu and provide recommendations. For appetizers, we had their shaved romaine salad and the burrata with strawberries and tomatoes. Both of these appetizers were amazing! Their strawberries were so fresh and the shaved romaine was unique with basil pesto and a lemon aioli. For entrees we had their Pomodoro pasta and the cavatelli pasta. Both of these dishes were really good as well! The cavatelli was our favorite between the two, but the Pomodoro was really tasty as well! For dessert, we had a chocolate mouse with strawberries on top. The dessert was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back again soon!

It was not cacio e pepe. The burrata was good. Nothing special. I consider this extremely overpriced for the quality of the food. We definitely wont be returning. Quite a disappointing experience.

If you want your wedding day to PERFECT, for the planning to be fun & easy, and for your guests to…read moretalk about how good the food was for months after, you NEED to pick Falcos. They are simply the best. I don't imagine there could be anyone better. The food was OUTSTANDING. The service was absolute perfection from beginning (before we even decided to book) to end. Alissa was extremely responsive, helpful, and personable. She made all the planning so painless - even fun and easy - and I never worried that I wasn't going to get exactly what I wanted. Lisa was my maître d and she is actually magical. She addressed all my concerns leading up to the day and worked seamlessly with all of my other vendors to make sure I was 100% taken care of. She was like another mother who was also running around like crazy during the wedding. I'm so grateful for her. Everyone in my family was ranting and raving about her, saying she was always right there to make sure they had everything they wanted; if they needed a drink, she was right there with one. This blew my mind because I'm not sure how she physically was able to do this for ALL of us and seem so attentive to me and make sure everything else was going perfectly. The rest of the staff were flawless too. Just amazing. And it's important to share how many guests complimented the food - and (thanks to Lisa) - I actually ate a LOT of it and could not have agreed more how insanely good it was. Lastly, the venue at Renaissance is severely underrated. It looked beautiful, fit all my almost 200 guests and I did NOTHING on the day of. The staff took care of it all. Falcos and the whole staff was a HUGE piece in making my day so perfect. Could not recommend them enough.
