    When in New Jersey, I like to get a pork roll egg and cheese sandwich. I ordered the sandwich and had to tell the waiter that I thought they made a mistake that it was just an egg and cheese. There was no pork roll. The cook said that that it's in there. I unfolded all the eggs and I did find a single slice of pork roll. For this price, I would've expected a little bit more meat. The sandwich tasted fine just a little chintzy for the price. Two or three slices of pork roll is the standard. Also, it should sit on top of the eggs and cheese. The home fries and coffee were good.. Per ChatGPT There's no legally mandated or "official" number of pork roll slices for a pork roll-egg-and-cheese (PEC) sandwich in New Jersey. It's more a question of convention, regional delis, and personal preference. However, based on recipes, diner practice, and local custom, here's what seems typical: What sources and examples suggest * One recipe ("Pork Roll Egg and Cheese") lists 2 slices of pork roll. * Another recipe from Grilled Cheese Social calls for 3 slices of pork roll. * Serious Eats, in a layering example, stacks two slices of pork roll (i.e. "pork, pork") above eggs + cheese. * In local deli practice, people often ask for "three slices" of Taylor Ham / pork roll (cut with slits so it doesn't curl) in a sandwich. For instance, in a Reddit comment: "The best way is ... 3 slices of Taylor Ham ... one fried egg ..." Reasoned "typical" recommendation Given the above, a "typical" sandwich in New Jersey would use 2 to 3 slices of pork roll, depending on: * The thickness of each slice (thin vs. thick cut) * The size of the roll or bread (how much "room" there is) * How meaty the eater likes their sandwich If I were advising you to pick a "standard" amount, I'd lean toward 3 slices of pork roll as being common and satisfying without overcrowding the sandwich.

    Pretty much what most people probably expect when they are going to dine at a beach boardwalk restaurant - average, pedestrian food that you feel you are risking your health on. The decor of the restaurant is pretty blah and drab with its maroon-colored booths and the menu is just ALLLL over the place with a hodgepodge of American "favorites" OR as I'd like to call it "heart attack" food. Surprisingly, they do serve salads here, as well as wraps and veggie dishes, but the stars of the menu are on the fried or greasy side - as in - pizza, burgers, philly steaks, Italian food, gyros/souvlaki and fried seafood baskets. Since we were kind of exhausted from our day on the Wildwood Boardwalk, we pretty much had an "F-it" attitude and needed to desperately refuel. We ended up getting 2 slices of pizza (plain cheese and buffalo chicken), a mushroom cheese steak (with whiz) and a spaghetti with meatballs. As I said, the food was pretty much what you'd expect. What we thought was going to be the best thing we ordered, ended up being the worst though - and that was the pizza. The pizza slices were pretty small and weren't all that hot by the time it reached our table. However, the mushroom cheesesteak was a surprising bright spot though. It was no real Philly cheesesteak by any means, but the bread was exceptionally soft and the presentation of the steak was decent. Did we have high expectations? Absolutely not. Should you have high expectations when dining here? Absolutely not. So with that said, before sitting down, you should know what you're getting yourself into and as long as you keep those expectations realistic, you'll mostly enjoy your meal here as it's really not the worst place you can eat, even if it looks of it.

    Boardwalk dining at its core - there's literally something for everyone on the menu, so don't let the randomness throw you off. Don't go in with high expectations and you won't be disappointed! Servers were attentive and quick. Food isn't bad and you get a good amount for what you pay for, especially the kid's meals. My husband loves their gyro platter, my oldest had a house salad with grilled chicken that was fresh with well seasoned chicken, and I had ravioli with meatballs - the sauce was flavorful and the meatballs, while not as good as my homemade ones were actually pretty good! We've been a few times and have also enjoyed their pizza. I wish they had breakfast available all day, but no luck there!

    Got here and had a great waitress, she was very attentive to detail with everything! All of our food was very good. Price was a little high but I don't mind paying for great food. The place a very friendly and old vibe to it!

    White pizza absolutely amazing, mushroom cheesesteak (I suggest asking to add fried onions) was full and delicious. This place is great food for a cheap price!

My entree was beef schnitzel stuffed with cheese, fried, then topped with a creamy sauce. The mashed potatoes were homemade, and the stir fried vegetables were fresh and delicious. The red pepper/eggplant appetizer served with pita bread was unique and can be served with a variety of dishes. The baklava dessert was the perfect ending to a delightful meal. The service was outstanding and the owners are friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to go back and try other specialties of this great restaurant!

I can't believe it took me this long to find Balkan Fusion but I'm so glad I did! The restaurant itself is clean, quaint, and welcoming, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Now, for the food we had: Cheese Burek: Made with feta, ricotta, and mozzarella, which was delicious! Next time, I'm definitely asking for their traditional Macedonian version (which from what the owner was telling us is super buttery and I imagine amazing). However I'd also be curious if they take requests as I'd love a 50% cottage cheese and 50% sour cream mix. The Mixed Board: A complete standout. It comes with pita bread plus an amazing selection of meats: -Cevapi: Perfectly grilled minced meat sausages that were absolutely delicious. -Chicken: Incredibly moist and perfectly seasoned. -Sudzukice: A spicy sausage link that's a bit different from what I'm used to in Albanian cuisine, but fantastic. It reminded me of a super flavorful, elevated hot dog (I'd love to try this served on a bun or in the pita with spicy mustard next time!). - Sharska Pljeskavica: Hands down unbelievable. I've never had this before. It's a homemade beef and pork mixed patty stuffed with melted cheese and bacon. Mind blown! If you're anywhere near North Wildwood, do not walk, run to Balkan Fusion. We will absolutely be back next year if not sooner!

We've always driven by it and it's always been super busy which is why we haven't gotten around to trying it. We walked in and were seated right away!

They have so many options and delicious combinations on the menu that it was difficult to commit to just one. I settled on the California which was warm lobster with drawn butter topped with wasabi-avocado-cucumber aioli sauce. It was loaded with melt in your mouth fresh giant chunks of lobster meat. It also came with a generous side of delicious tater tots, homemade coleslaw, and street corn which was nice and spicy too. While I was waiting they handed me a complementary homemade lobster bisque also loaded with lobster meat. It was fantastic. I took everything to go and enjoyed it on the beach....perfect. I can't wait to go back again next weekend and try another.

This is the second best! It is also the second most expensive. It does come with a side of tots, but I can do with out that. Staff is very friendly! As soon as you look their direction and look like you are walking towards them, they greet you. Which is pretty nice! I went with the Connecticut, because I love butter lol! I also added more meat! It was pretty good, no complaints on the size. The lobster was... ok? It was like they cleaned it earlier that morning, stuck the meat in the fridge, tossed it on the grill to warm it up, but the inside was cold and the outside was warm and dry. It could be that I just had a bad experience! My biggest issue is the lobster shells that I had in my lobster... so disappointing! I took pictures, but Yelp keeps removing them... I guess the owner pays them to keep taking down negative pictures? All in all, if you want lobster, go to Quincys 500 feet north of there next to ripleys... It is ok here, just watch out for the shells!
