El Meson - Freehold NJ

When you are in the Freehold area (or even when you aren’t) and you want to experience authentic Mexican food, then your first stop should be at El Meson on Main St.in Freehold. It is a small place that is large when it comes to authentic flavor. I also believe it is one of the best restaurants in Freehold. They serve the traditional dishes that you may be used to plus a few unique items. You will not be disappointed if you are from the northeast. I say that because I have eaten my share of Mexican food out west and well….that is a whole other matter.

If you typically order the “nachos” when you have Mexican, then stay home or go to Fridays or some other chain that cranks them out like a factory. This place is not for you. The restaurant is BYOB and in my opinion is a perfect place for a couple or a group of four. If you can, go in the summer when you can take advantage of the outdoor seating.

At the moment, I am unaware of any entrée coupons or any special offers. However, I will post them in comments if I come across anything.

Please come back and post your experience at El Meson once you have tried it.

The Red Oak Diner - Hazlet NJ

New Jersey is famous for their diners and for good reason....they are simply the best in the world. Even the diners in NY cannot touch the ones in NJ. I call the NJ diner the 8th wonder of the world. The menu is larger than any other restaurant. You can have anything on the menu at any time of day. It is all prepared fresh and out in 10 minutes. I dont know how they do it. Many diners also have their own bakery in the building.

I will discuss many of the wonderful diners over time in this blog. Today, I would like to mention the Red Oak Diner in Hazlet NJ on Rt 35N. The quality of food there is extremely high. The service is excellent, portions and prices are fantastic. There is even a bar if you are looking for a drink with your meal. Two years ago, they hosted a family function for me there (about 25 people). People are still talking about it. The food was incredible.

I highly recommend stopping in at the Red Oak Diner in Hazlet. You will not be disappointed. Stop back here and comment on your experience. OR, let us know about some other positive eating experience in NJ.
