    Bike & Brunch at the Committed Pig
    Jill G.

    Stopped here after a bike ride on the Capital to Coast bike trail. What a pleasant surprise! Didn't know this place existed until today. Everything was perfect. Food was delicious, very fresh; service was excellent (Annie was our waitress and was excellent). Atmosphere was open, airy and beautiful. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!

    The restaurant is light, with simple wood tables & chairs. The bar has some color. The service was outstanding! It was a late lunch the day before Valentine's Day so it wasn't busy, so the bartender was our waiter. He couldn't have been any more helpful, attentive or friendly. The food was great! The veggie burger was really good, and the side salad was delicious (with a tasty balsamic dressing). The Brie burger was super delicious and the waffle sweet potato fries were hot and perfectly crispy.

    Great spot for refuel after a lifeguard comp in Sea Girt. They had a great cold brew which I needed! No pictured were the wings and fried pickle chips the boys had for apps. My husband and I split the PigMac and the Double fried chicken sandwiches. The sweet potato waffle fries were a nice touch. Service was great (thanks for the recommendations) and the decor was cute with the mid matched chairs.

    Very clean, the service was good, and the burgers were delish. Get there when they aren't busy!

    I finally checked the Committed Pig, and wow! It was way better than I expected. Seriously, the place was super cool and stylish inside, really comfy and casual feeling. has a rooftop deck, not sure the rooftop hours. Their happy hour draft beers are great prices that won't break the bank especially for being down the shore. The cocktails were the real stars of the show. They weren't just your average drinks; these were seriously creative and delicious - perfectly balanced and you could tell they used really good stuff. Each one was like a little work of art!.

    Visited this past weekend with family for an early lunch. Ambiance is awesome and our service was very good. My sister in law got one of the cocktail specials and she said it was absolutely spectacular. Burgers are way above average as to be expected. Fries were cold which was a bummer. Good sized portions. A favorite spot in Manasquan when we're down the shore.

    Had lunch here for the first time today. The Illy Dilly Burger was amazing. Juicy as all get out. The Bartender, Norm, was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back.

    We walked in, and were sat immediately! Server was Amanda. She was friendly and attentive. Cookie dough pancakes 3/10 The pancakes were not bad, but they definitely needed syrup if you got a piece with no cookie dough... If you did get a piece with cookie dough, it was a very strange consistency, kinda weird. It was like a half baked cookie. My 8 year old sister did not like them. I tried hers and wasn't a huge fan either. Chipotle Bacon Burger - cooked medium 8/10 (Amanda recommended this as her favorite burger) Burger was really good. It was cooked close to medium, a tad over, but the flavor of the burger was still good and it was juicy. The cheese was really good, bacon was crispy, chipotle had good flavor, not spicy and a nice soft bun. I didn't really taste or notice the onion ring. Could use a little more chipotle too (and more on the side to dip fries!) Regular fries Tastes almost exactly like McDonald's, but a little better.

    Baked Brie & sweet potato waffle fries

    I've been dying to check out the new committed pig location! My family loved the old squan location for years and has been craving a baked Brie burger with fried pickles!! The new location has a bar and a liquor license so it is not BYOB like the old spot. Pretty interior & bar set up with fun / funky cocktails. As for food, we got the baked Brie burgers, a cheese burger & fried pickles. The sweet potato waffle fries are great (but need more seasoning !!) ask for honey mustard on the side, you won't be sorry! For drinks, we got rum & cokes, boardwalk lemonade, watermelon gimlet + slow poke fiz. The non alcoholic Arnold palmers were refreshing as well! The boardwalk lemonade comes in a to go cup & is gone in a few sips, but was yummy. The watermelon gimlet was interesting & came with an ant tooth pick lol. I probably wouldn't order the slow poke fiz again, but that's just me! FYI - Summer Thursday's in squan are a little crazy, so we had to wait 45 min - 1 hr for a table for 3, but were able to wait by the bar. They don't take reservations!! There was music outside & the street was shut down for pedestrians only. All in all, Committed Pig is still a top Monmouth County spot!! Excited about their new location.

    Kids pancakes
    Laureen Y.

    This has been on my nj list of places to eat for quite awhile now. We ordered the pig mac with waffle fries, illy dilly with waffle fries, and kids pancakes with sausages. I added lettuce, onion, and tomato on my illy dilly; they were very generous with the toppings. I didnt add the pickles because illy dilly came with fried pickles but with toppings the fried pickles were not crispy. I give the illy dilly a 9/10, nice and juicy a very well made burger. My bf gave the pig mac a 9/10 as well. Both burger sandwich were sliding off/ falling apart once you take a bite. Waffles fries were okay theres really nothing surprising but it was crispy.

    We went to Spring Lake beach this weekend and we were looking for a good restaurant. We found Blend…read moreby Chef Lou. It's a nice, quiet venue and the staff were very attentive and friendly. We started with the bread, a focaccia, which was served with an olive oil that had a large roasted garlic in it. It was a delicious starter, and complimented our Caesar salad. The Caesar salad was 'different' - aren't they all? I've been experiencing very different types - the one tonight had a subtle dressing - with a subdued sweetness. The grated Parmesan and Breadcrumbs smothered the salad - when you see the picture, you'll understand. It was a good salad, however I would have preferred less grating and more dressing. Next up, the Waygu Meatballs, in a delicious San Marzano tomato sauce. The meatballs were excellent. I was mystified by the accompanying 'jar' of 'basil' ricotta. See attached picture-it's a large amount of ricotta - I tasted it - it was very creamy but the basil was faintly noticeable. I added a little to a meatball and it didn't enhance the 'bite' at all. I was embarrassed leaving this large jar of cheese. We shared the two entrees - the first, Sea Bass on a bed of mashed potatoes was cooked perfectly and had the most delicate taste. It was 'too delicate', if there is such a thing as- for they say, ' good fish, doesn't taste like fish '. However, the fish needed seasoning or sauce - one or the other, or both. The next entree was the mushroom house made ravioli - a tender pasta with a mushroom filling covered in a creamy, earthy mushroom sauce. We also ordered a side of sautéed wild mushrooms and added those to the ravioli - it was a wonderful dish.

The worst part was some of the tables are very close so sitting next to an obnoxious guy makes it hard to ignore. Anyway, the food: we each got a salad: Caesar salad dressing was in point, but TOO much cheese and the croutons were stale but there were t that many of those so no biggie. Hubby got the Tre colore salad which was a special & he loved it. For dinner we both did specials: chicken rollatini (amazing! Highlight dish of the evening) & husband got the Salmon Oscar which was very good too. Took dresser home as we often do bc we were stuffed: ring ding for 2. WOW! The pastry chef there is a genius and super talented, it was SO GOOD! I had coffee which was fantastic & hubby had espresso also fantastic. We will definitely be back!

I've always heard good things, and I thought the food stood up to the reputation. The restaurant was packed on a Monday night, which was probably a good sign for what led to a delicious meal. I really enjoyed the roasted oysters topped with yummy breadcrumbs. My daughter enjoyed a sushi appetizer and wedge salad with blackened tuna that she claimed was delicious as well. Our other dinner partner enjoyed his halibut. I really loved the show-stopping, gigantic jumbo lump crab meat risotto. It was very filling, but super delicious. The food was rich and, in some ways, basic, but executed perfectly. I added some of the street corn and that really made things even better get this dish. You won't be disappointed. The atmosphere was busy, if not hectic. Our table was in the middle of the room, next to a large family with little kids. One was seven months old and the other was two. That seemed like a bit much for a dinner with these price points. It's not an inexpensive restaurant and certainly not a family-vibe Houlihan's. We had mixed feelings about the atmosphere, but I kind of thought it was cool--a really pretty building with some rustic charm.

Hostesses (x2 because evidently seating people is a 2 person job - although neither girl could formulate a full sentence). 8:30pm Sunday - "there are only seats at the bar; we've stopped seating outside". Management. If this is true GREAT you have some monotone bland children holding down the fort. If you want business and your staff to work - I'm sad to say they turned down a nice group of 30-50 year olds ON A MONDAY (which is huge for us). Lackluster. Lazy. Underwhelming. Find some more chipper front of house staff. Maybe anyone who looks up from their phone first and knows to say hi and welcome!
