Espo's Restaurant & Bar

Excellent food, great service and still a landmark. Went for an early dinner and the place filled up quickly. Appetizers dinners even the bread... Everything was excellent. Owner Nick was very nice, waiter and bartender were professional and friendly. Definitely going back. Thanks Nick for keeping Espos a Central Jersey treasure

I've been here before over the years, so it was interesting to see if under new ownership. The more things change the more they stay the same. Yes, they've replaced the chalk boards with paper menus. But the food is still as tasty and delicious as ever. And they've added a couple more TV so that was handy during the playoffs. But it is still a tight navigation with so many tables on the floor. And, if I wasn't with a party of 6, no restaurant is worth a 2 hour wait. That completely took away any pleasure I had for the meal.
The food does not outweigh the wait. Like I said, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Great to have Espo's back. So happy to see many of the old menu choices still available along with new items. Had a great meal, the special Grilled Pork Chop Murphy was excellent. You could cut the chop with a butter knife. The shrimp appetizer with marinara sauce was ample to share and tasty.

We arrived at this spot for dinner. we heard about this restaurant from a lot of people. Well, it was a winning. we were warmly welcomed by the staff members and we felt excellent. The meal was yummy. We had a great time and we will definitely return to this restaurant. Recommended.
