Freddie's - Long Branch

The pizza is great but sadly, my experience at this restaurant did not meet my expectations. I was very disappointed because the pizza here is my FAVORITE but the service ? Not so much. We were greeted in a timely matter and received our pizza quickly but while eating, our waitress did not ask if the food came out ok or if we needed refills. I waited about 15 minutes to see if someone would ask me if I wanted a refill and no one ever did. I finally asked someone who wasn't my waitress because it was getting ridiculous. When I finally got my water, they gave us the bill too. We were waiting about ten minutes for her to come collect our card and she never did. We were tempted to just walk up to her and give her the card, but we just gave it to another waiter. We were so annoyed at this point. I can't deny that their food is delicious, but they need to work on their costumer service; it's horrible.

I've been coming here for years and when I heard they changed owners I was a little worried. But I gave it a chance and I was not disappointed! The pizza and wings were always a go-to so I was skeptical to order something off the new menu but I'm so glad I did. I absolutely LOVED the blackened truffle scallops entree! My friend got the gnocchi special and loved it as well. Our crab cake special appetizer, Italian calamari, and antipasto salad were also really good. Lastly, the cake batter tiramisu was definitely a pleasant update to the menu as well! It was fantastic! If you're a longtime-comer like me, don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone with the new menu. It's definitely worth it!

This was the best pizza in Monmouth County. Really hope it's not closed for good!

The best pizza I have had in New Jersey. I usually get the Meat Lovers, fiance gets a gluten free pizza. Seating is a little tight at times, BYOB. I have also ordered take out a few times, pick up is in the back of the restaurant. They have Loyalty cards to earn free pizzas.

Really excellent experience at Freddie's. The pizza was very good. Thin crust, but the bottom of the pizza was firm and crisp. It did not get soggy at all like thin crust pizzas often do. We got an extra large prosciutto and spinach pizza and it hit the spot. Just enough for two. The service really put this place over the top. The restaurant was decently busy, and our waitress had multiple tables but was more than attentive and very positive. John, who we assumed to be the owner, engaged our large group in great conversation and made us feel very welcome. Would definitely come back next time I'm at Long Branch Beach.
