Pépe Kitchen

"PEPE kitchen, David mizrahi has done it again. WOW is an understament. Let's start off with the atmosphere Right on the beach indoor and outdoor seating and a wonderfull cool breeze coming right off the ocean. Nothing better Than that. Now the food. My wife and I ordered 4 items each one was better than next. First up was the crispy cheese bites. Thick and breaded perfectly and fried to golden brown. Perfect. Up next was the garlic cheese bread sticks. Cheesy filled pizza dough with fresh garlic. What can be better. We ordered a personal Margherita pizza. Perfect amount of fresh mozzarella and sauce. Now the STAR OF THE SHOW (atleast for me) THE MAC & CHEESE. Ok I will say this I HAVE NEVER HAD FRESH PASTA BEFORE. I'm not sure I am able too go back to boxed pasta again. The HOMEMADE pasta was incredible and the combination of cheeses and sauce was perfection. Highly recommended the drive out here. Yosef mutterperl TOMS RIVER NJ"

"Pepe’s Kitchen in Long Branch is a great spot if you’re looking for solid kosher pizza and a relaxed atmosphere. The pizza is excellent—crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and quality toppings that taste fresh. The menu has a good variety beyond just pizza, and everything comes out hot and well prepared. The place is clean, the service is friendly. If you’re in the Long Branch area and want a reliable kosher spot for pizza or a casual meal, Pepe’s Kitchen is definitely worth checking out."

"Pepe Kitchen in Long Branch, NJ, is a gem that adds a much-needed spark to the kosher food scene on the boardwalk in Pier Village. The flavors are fantastic, and the ambience is both beautiful and inviting. The cleanliness of the place is noticeable, and the quick service ensures you’re enjoying your meal in no time. I ordered the mac and cheese, and the pepper flavoring was a delightful and unexpected surprise. The garlic truffle French fries were another highlight, bursting with great flavors."

"I recently visited Pepe Kitchen and had a truly exceptional dining experience. From the warm welcome at the door to the friendly, attentive service, everything felt welcome and well-executed. The menu offered a wonderful variety — we started with the garlic cheese breadsticks (generous cheese, crisp outside and still warm inside) and the “Mac n’ Cheese Stick,” which was creative, indulgent and fun to share. One of the main courses we tried was the fire-roasted vegetable pizza, with perfectly blistered crust and beautifully roasted veggies that made each bite flavorful and satisfying. The pasta also caught our eye — fresh-made, with house-attention to dough and sauce that you could tell. The ambience is relaxed yet stylish. It felt like a place suited both to a casual meal with friends and a slightly more elevated evening out. The open kitchen design let you glimpse the care that goes into the cooking, which added to the sense that they take their craft seriously. My only tip: if you go during peak time, it’s wise to arrive a little earlier to secure a good spot. Also, if you’re a garlic-lover, don’t miss the breadsticks! All in all, I highly recommend Pepe Kitchen — creative, delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service. I’ll definitely be back."

"Truly excellent location with fresh ingredients and tasty pizza and pasta. Salad was terrific as well. The dining area is spotless and the kitchen also looks like it’s kept quite clean."
