    Blown away by the atmosphere and food at Gourmand. The space is gorgeous with only about a dozen tables, so it is definitely an intimate dining experience. The Blue Fin Tuna app was so good. The tamarind and soy reduction was sweet, salty, and went perfect with the tuna and crispy rice. Also a fairly large portion (4 pieces). I elected to get the Wagyu lasagna as my entree. It was huge and was so satisfying. Though I was super jealous of my husbands chicken entree. The Pollo al Ajillo was mind blowing. Chicken was moist with crispy skin. Everything from the sauce, to the onions and potatoes complimented it beautifully. Totally made up for the fact that we wanted the Birria Ramen but they were already sold out! Do not skip dessert. The gelato is creamy and delicious and the coconut panna cotta was perfect. Seriously perfect. Perfect texture, flavor, and the sauces and cookie crunch made it over the top.

    Dinner here was amazing. We had a 530 reservation. Place wasn’t too packed and the view of the ocean from our table was awesome. Matthew was our server and he was great!!Recommended me the Bronzino special and it was some of the best fish I’ve had in a while.  My girlfriend got the girl dinner promotion which was so fun. Was such a great value for the price of the dinner.

    Really nice time at the Robinson Ale House in Long Branch for Mother's Day dinner. Service was excellent. Short Rib was a little dry, but the Pork chops were outstanding as was the Shrimp arancini rice ball appetizer. Cocktails were excellent as well.
