So... this might seem like a big deal... but I haven't eaten steak in a really long time. My parents LOVE steak and they gave it to me so often as a kid I just got tired of it... and I've only had it a few times in the past... 15 years maybe? I've had Chicken fried steak- which is really good. My dad got a hibachi recently and made hibachi steak that I liked. My friend's fiance made some steak kabobs recently also... and I liked that... so I just kind of wanted to venture into eating steak again because I'm getting a little tired of chicken.
And there's a really good restaurant in Asbury called Moonstruck... and I thought that would be a good time to try some. My parents really love their steak- I love their food and I've realized this is a good place to try new things... so I got it... and I'll review the appetizer and dessert I had also!
Appetizer
We always pretty much order the same appetizers... this time we only ordered the one appetizer which is the Arugula, Tomato and Fresh Mozzarella salad... this is so good. The tomatoes are always so fresh and juicy. The Olive oil dressing is really nice... and the Mozzerella is delicious. All of these flavors together just taste great any time of year... but it is particularly refreshing in the summertime. It's just so great. Highly recommend!
Entree
The Filet Mignon. I'm not an expert on steak obviously... but this just tasted really flavorful and delicious. It was served with butter on top over mashed potatoes... all of the steak dishes come with Mashed Potatoes except for the Cowboy Steak- which is served with Fries and some Onion Rings. It also comes with Vegetables... which come with most of the entrees as well... and let's face it... I never really eat them. Lol.
The potatoes tasted really good too... I don't know if they had any sort of Garlic or seasoning in them... it didn't look like they did... but it sort of tasted like they did... so it might have just been a really good potato...
I really liked it all. My big problem with steak in recent years when I've tasted a piece was that there was no real flavor to it... and there's certainly a lot of flavor to this one. It was really great. I ordered it Medium Well- and it was just right. They've got it down to a science pretty much there. It's great!

Dessert
I had the Black and White Creme Brulee... which is really delicious. It has a little bit of chocolate custard on the bottom. This Creme Brulee has kind of ruined all other creme brulee's for me. The chocolate just brings so much flavor out... the crust on top is soooo nice and yummy... it's just absolutely perfect!
Drinks
Of corse I can't forget to mention the drinks! I always get the Bikini Tini... this is just strong enough without being too strong. It kind of tastes like a pina coloada but in Martini form... it's really great! They have another martini that's the same but with a banana... I think it's the Speedo Martini... which is funny... lol. Anyway... awesome drink!
The service is always very nice and well informed also. It gets busy... but if you get there early it's pretty great!
Anyway that's pretty much it! Hope you guys like this review!
Byeee!
