I love food.

I love food. I love eating food. There is such a simple pleasure experienced when eating. If you asked me what my favorite type of food is, depending on how I thought you would respond to my sarcasm, I would probably respond by saying Good Food. That being said, not all restaurants can have absolute knockout menu items across the entire menu. Of course there are such places that continue to astound their customers consistently with every item they prepare, that is why I said not all restaurants. However, the majority of the restaurants within my constantly changing dining budget have their strong and weak points. Beacon Street Grill in Neptune, NJ is a perfect example of this; in the past I have given them credit because their burgers are always consistently satisfying and the Black Magic Steak is something I particularly enjoy but too many times I have witnessed a fellow diner sit silently disappointed when ordering off their specials menus. Although they have major weak points on their menus people continue to return because of excellent chowder, good meats, and friendly service of course. This is the normal analysis I conduct in my mind while considering a menu and what will result in me having the best meal possible in that restaurant on that particular evening. I guess it can be summarized as "stick with what their good at."
Service is a defining point of a restaurant and will probably wind up being the unintentional star of this blog.
