Luchentos Ristorante - Millstone Twp NJ

If you are going to have a special night out and you want excellent Italian food with great atmosphere, then Luchentos is your place. The menu is country Italian so do not expect to see a menu that looks like one you may find at your local Italian/Pizza shop. You will find lots of unique combinations and will have a difficult time deciding what to order.

Once you have tried a pasta dish, you will need to come back and try something from the Chops, Steaks and Seafood section of the menu. I ordered "Pork Chops Country" which came loaded with sausage, peppers, onions and potatoes.

             

Luchentos is BYOB so be prepared for that. It is located on Rt 33 half way between the NJTPK and Freehold on the westbound side of the road.

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.
