I actually thought I wrote a yelp review for this place the first time I went, but since this experience was as good as the first, I had to come back and check. This is the feedback I sent through their website tonight:

I ordered lunch today from your location. This is the second time I've gotten subs from you and have been totally impressed by the efficiency and friendliness of your crew. It's refreshing to see employees who work well together and don't seem annoyed at having to speak to and help a customer. I dare say that your people take pride in their work and THAT breeds customer loyalty. It really does.

Not only was I impressed with your staff, but your establishment was neat and clean looking and the food was really excellent. My aunt and grandmother both commented that the sandwich was really good - they split a ham, salami and tomato sub. My husband was pleasantly surprised by the Chipotle cheese steak and my picky 20 month old gobbled up a good portion of it herself. Both my mom and dad enjoyed the Tuna sub they shared and I got the impression their deli around the corner is about to start missing them.

Thank you for lunch, we really enjoyed it!

All the best,

Details for  yelp - They have a handful of tables to eat in, and it's clean and open inside. We called in our order of 5 1/2 subs and picked it up within 20 minutes, but they let us know it would be ready in 15.

Vinnie's Pizza

Years ago my family stopped ordering from Vinnie's in favor of another local pizzeria, but after ordering dinner from them tonight I realize how much I've missed them.

Vinnie's is my FAVORITE, all time FAVORITE pizza in North Brick. Period. The texture and flavor of the crust and the blend of sauce that hasn't changed in 20 years, are a couple of reasons why. I just love it.

The new location, right across the street from the old one, is really beautiful. You can see the staff preening proudly behind the granite counters (as they should, it's been a long time coming) as they take orders, prepare the pies, package and plate the food for the guests in their rustic new dining room, for takeout and for delivery.

We ordered a large plain pie (see my opinion above), sweet marinara muscles and rigatoni puttanesca. The rigatoni wasn't al dente, but it wasn't smoosh either, and though it was pretty salty it was VERY tasty. The capers burst when you bit them and I got pieces of tender garlic, real Italian olives (not canned black olives) and even anchovies in the portion I split with my Mom.

I picked up 3 menus tonight and I think the family agrees - we'll be back!

Really good! Went with the kids and my husband to the new location on Route 70 in Brick. The kids meals are under $6, come with carrots/ranch appetizer (they allowed a substitution of steamed broccoli for my 14 month old daughter who can't chew carrots yet) the meal, drink and ice cream. Great deal.

I got a burger with Gorgonzola cheese on it. The burger was actually done "medium" which is what I asked for but which rarely happens when I order it at a restaurant - they usually come to me well done.
The cheese tasted a little like goat's milk, but I'm pretty sure that's just what gorgonzola tastes like.

The BEST part was the desert we ordered. The Creme Brule was seriously the best dessert I've ever gotten out to eat. It was delicious and had the crispy sugar coating on top that you know they used one of those hand held torches to create. Ohhhh, it was delightful - and reasonably affordable. We had a good time.

I saw a review for this place and felt I had to add that my best friend's husband works for them and it's supposed to be a really great company to work for too. They get great Christmas bonuses, a regular schedule (for an ex union electrician with a family to support, that's an ideal situation), a competitive salary  and unbeatable benefits. They even promise to pay toward his kid's tuition when they go to college. They've made him a company man!

I love this place - in fact each time I drive past it I consider stopping in and breathe a sigh of regret if it's too late and they've closed for the day. The zillion omelets they offer take up the whole front page of the menu and you'll only have narrowed your choice down to about 5 of the tastiest sounding options by the time the rest of your party is forcing you to tell the waitress your order. The potatoes that come with your breakfast are sooo good and no matter how I try I CAN NOT make them at home. My sister gets the shakes when she even THINKS about how yummy the cream cheese stuffed pumpkin pancakes are even the "diet" dishes don't disappoint when they give you a heap of fresh, cold cottage cheese over fresh sliced fruit salad with strawberries and a toasted muffin. Tell me you don't love the bottomless coffee, right? Oh, it's just so good.

I liked it. I'll order from here again.
I got wonton / eggdrop soup - it came as expected and I liked it.
I also got the vegetable delight combination plate (with an eggroll and pork fried rice) and it was really delicious. The singapore rice noodles were a little bland and dry, not really the way I like them, but the food was hot and fast, reasonably priced and packaged well for delivery.

He's been my dentist my whole life! I remember playing with little toys in the waiting room with the receptionist when my mother went in for cleanings when I was a kid.

Dr. wood got me through 2 years of braces in middle school, extracted 2 baby teeth for me (because I didn't have adult teeth under them to push them out) and drilled and filled 2 cavities for me. He's great and benevolent. I like him a lot.

My favorite hygienist is Liz - she is very gentle when she cleans your teeth and I always have lots of tartar. I hate the scraping, but she is so careful.

All the folks who work there are just lovely. Go see Dr. Wood!

Paperth Frederic DMD

My son had 2 cavities in his 2 top front teeth. His teeth had started to chip away and we needed help fast. Dr. Paperth fixed his teeth and they look great now, but it was a mixed experience for us.

My son was 2 1/2 when he got it done and they gave him a liquid medicine to drink (noctek) I think they called it to make him feel "drunk" so they could do the work. It was kind of hard to get him to drink the "medicine" because it really smelled gross, but he did it and soon he was feeling pretty loopy. We did have to strap him down to a board to make sure he was still during the procedure, but I was there the whole time and he was really compliant while they did it. He started getting uncomfortable toward the end, but they finished up beautifully and I was surprised how quickly they were able to do the work.

The ladies in the office were very nice and good with kids. Lots of praise for the boy, but they were confident and firm with what they expected of my son. The Dr. didn't seem confident with children at all, which surprised me because he's an older gentleman who's been at this for a long time. When he described the procedure, in front of my son, he was very wishy washy about it. "We'll have to see how it goes... sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't... I hope we'll be able to get through it...."

I wish he would have been confident and positive in front of the baby and then let me know his reservations about it without my son being able to hear. I'm glad we had the problem taken care of, but I don't think he will be our regular pediatric dentist.
