  1. I have been here a few times with my family. Nice little place with decent food. Never had an issue with the meals I've gotten. The only things I have really had were the L.A. Chicken and tonight I had the Chicken Murphy.  Definitely my go to meals here. Very good. Tonight my sister got the Stuffed Flounder. She said the lemon sauce was good but when my mom tried it she said she was glad she didn't order it.  

    All the meals come with the salad bar. Salad bar isn't special however if you like muscles (I believe that's what they are) you can get as much as you want. They also have soups at the salad bar and awesome, warm, doughy rolls!!!

    They do have a bar but have I never ordered a drink until tonight. Since it was my birthday, and Cinco de Mayo, I ordered a raspberry margarita. Good size and flavor was good but didn't taste much alcohol in it.  

    This restaurant is right on the highway and parking is super tight. Parking a truck is a tad difficult. But other than that definitely give it a try.

    Also a private room for parties is available.

  2. Kitschy Italian restaurant still living in the 80s.

    The food and drinks are disappointing. The menu is your stereotypical 1980s nj Italian menu. The wine list will not disappoint the yellow tail or woodbridge enthusiast in you! The decor… Let's just say that after the fire, they went to homegoods and picked up every kitschy thing they could find. And finally, if I owned a restaurant, I'd pay someone to make me a solid logo/sign, as random passerbys can be reeled with a solid sign  Well… I'll be polite and say that someone's grandson had some fun designing signs in WordArt. Seriously, type yesterday's in Word, then pull up WordArt. You'll have their awful signs in 5 mins.

  3. Yesterday's has always been a place my family comes to often and when we have extended family visiting, we bring them here a lot.  

    The food is pretty good but I think what makes it the best is the salad bar.  The ingredients are always so fresh and there are so many options- salads, endless toppings, 2-3 soups, bread, and mussels.  You can make a meal out of the salad bar in itself.  They give a pretty generous pour with their wine and you rarely have to wait too long for a table.  

    My dad and I also planned a surprise 50th birthday party here for my mom which ended up falling on a blizzard.  We called them first thing in the morning and they did not hesitate to change the date of the party last minute and give us the same exact room and food options we had originally planned for (minus the surprise, of course)!

    Yesterday's will always be a place I make a point to stop at when I'm home visiting my parents.

  4. This place was solid.  A close friend's baby shower was this past weekend and the food was good, the ambiance in the banquet hall was bright and cheery, the bathrooms were spotless, the bar was lovely.  The staff was a little dull – not very quick to bring beverages or coffee; the bartender was seriously delayed but other than that, nice enough.  

    Certainly give this place a look if you're looking to host a party and want good prices!

  5. This was a nice little place in Keyport, NJ.  The food and service was good and we have a very nice evening.  The seafood seemed to be fresh and well prepared and as mentioned, we tried the salad bar with the mussels.  Very nice touch, though just slightly sandy.  It is definitely worth a visit and a great place for a mid-week meal.
