Johnny Piancone's - Long Branch

I visited this restaurant for a repast and immediately felt like I was in an upscale Italian restaurant in Manhattan. The brick walls, black and white table linens, and beautiful artwork all add to the ambiance. They have an outstanding selection of wines and liquor, and the food is truly exceptional. The staff is attentive and courteous, making for an overall fantastic dining experience.

You really have to appreciate traditional Jersey Italian cuisine, and that's exactly what you’ll find here. The food is delicious and down-to-earth, with no unnecessary frills.
