    Hands down the best brunch in Asbury Park. The afternoon light in the Greenhouse upstairs is really something special. Try the Erin Rose Irish Coffee slushie. So good.

    We visited R Bar based on the good food reviews, but not knowing what to expect from the picture of the outside of the restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised. I would describe it more of a restaurant than a bar (although there is a large bar area with live music some nights). It is New Orleans style. We were seated right away and given 4 different menus...the main menu, the specials menu, the drinks menu, and the wine menu. Great selection of everything! The service was excellent...the best we've had in a LONG time. The drinks and appetizers were delicious. The only negative I can say about the entrees is that they were salty (but I guess that comes with creole/cajun). They were good, though, just very salty. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely return. It is a hidden gem away from the hustle and bustle of Cookman Ave.

    Just watch the chair in the main room with the walking path behind it. It gets crowded especially if your sitting on that side. We actually moved the table closer to the wall to get my friend out of the busy crosshairs. Overall very nice experience but they are firm on the 90 minutes
