Some Sundays just hit different…read more Church was absolutely PHENOMENAL! Rev. Nicole Drakeford preached a WORD that reached all the way into my soul. The scripture was Luke 17:11-19, and the message was simple but powerful... I have to get back to saying THANK YOU! Sometimes we're so busy asking God for the next blessing that we forget to pause and thank Him for the ones He's already given us. Now y'all know after feeding the spirit...it was time to feed the stomach! Off to Brownstone the Original Pancake Factory in Freehold we went, and BABY...they did NOT disappoint! From the moment we walked in, our server J gave us customer service that was a 10/10! If you go, ask for J...tell 'em Stacy sent you! To make the day even sweeter, they helped us celebrate our church's 106th Anniversary! Such a thoughtful surprise that truly made us smile. And can we PLEASE talk about my Aunties?! Apparently, when it's your first visit, you have to ride the carousel...and let me tell you...my Golden Girls understood the assignment! Watching them laugh and enjoy every second was worth the trip all by itself. The food? ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! The portions are huge, the atmosphere is welcoming, and every bite was worth it. If you haven't been...GO! And if you have...tell the people the truth... NO LIES DETECTED! Thank You, Lord, for another Sunday filled with worship, family, laughter, great food, and beautiful memories. My cup & heart is FULL.

I really wanted to understand the hype, but unfortunately this one was a miss for me. I'm honestly…read morenot sure why there are consistently such long lines to get in because, based on our experience, the food was definitely underwhelming. First, the menu is HUGE. It actually reminded me of Cheesecake Factory, you open it and there are so many options that you're not really sure what the restaurant specializes in. Yes, everything is centered around pancakes, but even within each section there are so many choices that it becomes overwhelming. Sometimes, less is more!We decided to take some of the server's recommendations and went with the Fried Oreo Cheesecake Pancakes. Unfortunately, these were just way too sweet for us and didn't live up to the hype. There was so much going on that the flavors didn't really come together for me.My daughter ordered the strawberry shake, which was absolutely massive! I will give them that, the portion was impressive. But again, it was extremely sweet, even for a milkshake.I ordered the Steak Frites and asked for my steak medium. Unfortunately, it came out much closer to medium rare, so it wasn't cooked to my requested temperature. Overall, there were some fun and over-the-top menu options, but unfortunately the food just didn't impress us enough to justify the wait or the hype. Would I go back? Probably not. There are just too many other places I'd rather spend my time and calories.

I had the French toast topped with strawberries, blueberries, and bananas, and it was delicious. The fruit was fresh, the French toast was cooked perfectly, and they definitely didn't skimp on the toppings. We also had an omelet, eggs, bacon, and hash browns, and everything came out fresh and well prepared. The portions were generous, the service was friendly, and I loved the little coffee mugs. They give the place even more of that local diner charm. Overall, a really good breakfast spot. We left full and happy and would definitely come back.

The buzz finally got the best of me and I had to stop in and try The Skillet…read more The verdict? Worth it! While they are known for their giant stacks of pancakes and coffee flights, I was really only craving something savory and more lunchy to go with my latte (which was delicious) so I ended up, at my waitresses suggestion, getting the Mediterranean bowl. It was one of the healthy options (a section of the menu) but was absolutely delicious!! It came with a green sauce that I could have had by the bottle, was massive and hit the spot. Come with friends and get a little bit of everything, maybe even a table pancake, so you can make your way through more of the menu. They were swamped on a random weekday afternoon, so I can't even imagine how busy they must get on the weekends.

I ordered the burger, which was pretty big and juicy. The fries were nice and crispy as well. For dessert, we got the banana dulce de leche gelato and ice cream cookie sandwiches. The gelato was so unique and rich. The ice cream cookie sandwiches were perfect for me and I loved the side of Nutella with nuts on top which added a nice crunch. Their commitment to hospitality beats most restaurants I've ever visited. In our reservation, I noted that we were celebrating a birthday. When we were sat at the table, a birthday card was waiting for my mom. Our waitress Bailey was so nice and accommodated my mom's request to not draw too much attention to the celebration. I also adore the atmosphere in 618. The lighting is so elegant with the many chandeliers and the flowers on the walls. 618 has easily become a top restaurant for me.

I finally found that amazing breakfast and brunch spot. I've been looking for for the longest time! I'm not going to be able to tell you when words how great this place is in my review today. You're just gonna have to go there yourself. All I'm saying is that this is far away the best breakfast and brunch place I've ever eaten in my life. And I understand that their lunches are also great which I'm gonna have to do someday but I'm so hooked on their breakfasts that I can't Break free of them. Their fancy scramble breakfast includes fluffy, soft scrambled eggs, along with sort of a Pusheta tomato base with fresh Muzzarella! This is about as close to heaven as you can get. Look at my picture and order this breakfast when you go. The only catch is that toast is not included with breakfast so I always order a piece on the side. Another time I had their Mediterranean omelette! Which is basically a Greek omelette which put me in heaven as well! I wanted to try something else on their menu and it did not disappoint. You could see my picture too, again with this dish I did order a piece of toast on the side. The vegan stack is also outstanding and a unique dish to offer for breakfast! Every bite delicious! I highly recommend this place for breakfast or brunch or even lunch. If you're reading this review, you must go there! Make a point of getting here someday as soon as you can, I promise you you won't regret it!!

My husband and I genuinely could not get over how good the biscuit was.....perfectly flaky, buttery. They also have an option covered in an espresso glaze, and it's just ridiculously good. I'm still thinking about it. Coffee was really solid (always matters), and the space itself is super cute and cozy. They also made Mickey Mouse pancakes for my daughter, and she was absolutely obsessed -- such a sweet touch and totally made her day. Westwood is a must. We'll absolutely be back.

I picked up a blonde shallot chicken salad which was good too! They didn't have a price tag on the juices which were veryyyy pricey and I think it's someone else like selling their juices from their store and we got 2. $28.50 for 2 juices felt kinda like steep just put a sign plsss

The service was quick and welcoming, and everyone made us feel at ease right away. The food was tasty and came out hot and fresh. Nothing fancy, just good, solid cooking done well. Portions were generous without being over the top, and everything we tried was good. My son got the French toast special which comes with 2 eggs, 2 bacon. Sausage and hash browns. He took on the challenge and tried to finish the plate but he simply couldn't. It's the kind of place that feels familiar, even if it's your first time there. Simple, friendly, and reliable--just what you want from a local luncheonette. I'll definitely be stopping back in the next time I'm in town.

There was a slight wait when we arrived , but we got seated almost immediately. Hubs ordered the Englishtown skillet, which has peppers, onion, potatoes, mushroom, broccoli, scramble, cheddar jack cheese. He said that this is one of the better skillets that he's had so far. It isn't frozen potatoes tossed in there. Hubs said that they put in so many vegetables that he didn't know what kind of potatoes they used. He was very happy with it. LOL. I ordered the 3 Golden brown griddle cakes with 2 eggs over easy. I liked it and this is my usual go to. But, hubs thought that it could be a little bit better. Service was quick and friendly. Will return to try other items on the menu.
