Best Lunch Restaurants in Iselin

I had the lamb which was cooked to perfection. Another in our party felt hs pork chop was the best he’s ever had. Our server was exceptional. Very attentive but not overly fawning. The atmosphere was lovely albeit a little noisy but not overwhelming. I’ve been at restaurants that were so noisy, it made conversations impossible. We could carry on a conversation with friends during dinner. We often come to Seasons 52 and always enjoy everything about our dining experience.

My wife and I don't make it out very often but having worked 15 years in the restaurant industry I cherish an incredible dining experience. TLDR: this was it. Lives up the hype. 10/10 would recommend. I don't only focus on the food, but the cocktail program, the servers menu knowledge, how the hostesses greet you, and the focus on ambiance and vibe as much as food. (As a side note, I'm not a snob, I just love this industry.) It's been a very long time since I've said this but I was blown away from start to finish. We showed up about 15 minutes early for our reservation, which for me is on time. At the time of our reservation, we were promptly sat. It took a few minutes to get the initial greeting, but I'll give a bit of leeway here because there wasn't an empty table in the establishment. Upon our servers intro, he grabbed us water and took our drink orders. My wife typically doesn't do cocktails , but the server had an answer for each question my wife had and she was pleasantly surprised by the La Granada Spritz. Not too sweet but still delicious. I did the Cantarito. I typically drink Pacifico, margaritas or tequila on the rocks but I was looking to have fun. Needless to say, I had two! As parents who don't get the chance to "date night" a lot, we knew we were going through all three courses. For apps, we did, street corn, Acapulco style ceviche and corn and roasted cherry tomato Gauc. Each with its own unique flavor profile, each delicious. For dinner we did steak and cheese tacos and barbacoa tacos. My barbacoa tacos were just the right amount of salty and tender. The server was kind enough to let me know the salsa arbol was spicy. Kudos to this call out as I love spicy but that's not everyone. For dessert we did tres leches and a Matador. I was leaning towards this cocktail but our server was quick to recommend it as well which made for an easy decision. The ambiance was fun, energetic and can't recommend this enough.

SAT 1/4/25__It's been over 2 years since my guests and I have dined here at LouCas. Since Covid,we got away from dining out as often. The menu has been updated but basically still the same place we always loved. Our server (Marcel G) was superb -- very attentive, professional, and his memory for all of the daily specials was pretty amazing! I'm very glad our reservation was at 5:15, because the place was packed by 6:45. Grilled octopus appetizer was perfect, the Sesame encrusted Tuna was a daily special and melted like butter in the mouth! The daily special - stuffed Bronzini - was exceptional as well. My dish was the Veal Millanese and because I was the only one at the table who did NOT get a daily special, that disqualified me from receiving a free house salad (which I think is a disappointment because my entree was also over $30). I also added a side of penne with tomato sauce (very good) and took home a slice of the famous "Dark Side of the Moon" chocolate cake. For 3 of us, total bill was $161.44 and we paid the well deserved tip in cash. Thanks for a great evening!
