Red Bank redux version 2.0 [NJ]

The lunches, around 14 bucks or so, offer a better value in my eyes.

$14 for lunch at Boney? Wow, that’s not a whole lot more than the Pour House these days.

That could be worth checking out, but I’m not getting dressed up.

Does boney Sera still have those 5lb bugs for dinner? I missed Maine this year and I’m craving some lobster. Try the scarp lunch and let me know what you think

Ran out Labor day. I’m thinking maybe point lobster co. for lunch.

Point Lobster Co

This was about 6 months ago? Almost positive it was after they switched to new ownership.

I hate that I have to ask people what kind of meat they use in their cheese steaks. Ugh.

Oh man viking is going to have a field day with this

Get ready for some swift footage!

I like it!! That I look forward to trying, RB has been lacking in the breakfast department since the diner changed to Toast. (Not my cup of tea)

FYI did you notice the Greek Eats bogo advert on that page?

I hope this place works. I like the looks of quite a few items on here and the prices look fair.

This is the brick menu so hopefully we don’t get the red bank tax. For 7 bucks that fat Sam might be a winner.

Well I like the name in general. I don’t want to pick fights, but it just wouldn’t be the same if you called it Pork Roll Sams…

I do have to say I am not a big fan of the “NAMED” sandwiches thing.

And that location is jinxed, jinxed I tell you… A black cat with an eight ball at midnight jinxed.

Speaking of Taylor, don’t know if you saw this:

She is just so talented. And hot.

It is hard to imagine she is the top paid artist in the world :confused:

I think the issue with that spot is parking. With cheaper prices they need to do volume and that is tough there when people can’t park close.

I will definitely try a few things out once they open.

For Sh*t’s and Giggles I would love to see the guy come out with a “truffle butter toasted roll with foie gras spread, pork roll and fried quail egg topped with brie” for $39.95 and see how many of them he would sell there. (My bet is quite a few) You’ve got to play to your audience and that would be enough of a stupid novelty to get people in that town to line up around the block.

Well not for me!!! She is just so talented and smart. And hot !

Yep, it’s the issue with RB in general. What is it up to, $3 an hour?

Only if you have the liquor license to go with it.

Most “restaurants” in RB are more like big time bars with incidental food service.

They line up from Lincroft & Colts Neck every Fri. & Sat. to go over the little bridge and party down.

Yes I did see the greek eats.

as for the foie gras idea, I like it. I am not sure that is the right combo, but something off the wall to get people talking is what they need.

Yeah, I was concentrating more on price point then actual recipe. lol Although feel free to give it a try and report back! (I nixed caviar off the list because I could’n’ see that going with anything)

What this place can do to thrive is make GOOD cheese steaks! It baffles me how many places can’t get a cheese steak right.

Yep, there are some good ones over in the Princeton/West Windsor/Lawrenceville area, but nothing around here.

Parking. Yeah, that’s what finally killed Montclair for me. I was there for over 60 years. Our go-to eating spots were in Clifton, Orange and West Orange - good, reliable food and a place to put your car.

Both the Pitcher and Oyster Point have free parking, another point in their favor.

Also Brothers and Birravino, which may help to explain why the latter is so popular with the blue hair Cadillac/Lincoln driving element, since they don’t like to walk to far for cocktails.

Red Bank is invidious in their enforcement practices, and has now installed bizarre and confusing little stands that require computer programming skills to pay.

Parking prices have escalated to pay for all new equipment and personnel.

It’s a racket.

I don’t know if I’m lucky, ignorant or dumb but I haven’t paid for parking in Red Bank yet. lol I have no idea what you are talking about…I’m not in town that often, but I just park and go. How long as this been in effect? All downtown? I only thought the garages were pay for parking as well as some of the larger lots. (like behind Teak)
