From the coupon:

A call went unanswered but their Facebook page says early June.

      Mark, you can view them on their Facebook page, although no mention of their pastrami..

    2. Wait, is this the old Cibo's location?

        According to Google the location appears to be just north of the Foodtown on Maple Ave.

          It's in Middletown . Same building as cibo , Just 2 doors to the right

          CIBO was listed in an earlier post here as 287 RT 35. So, a door or two away.

            My thanks to both of you. I was experiencing my typical highway 35 strip mall confusion! Joint looks promising so I appreciate the heads up.

              I just talked to them today, June 6th. They are opening "mid next week" they told me. I can't wait to try it out. It's good to see some BBQ places popping up in Monmouth county. Try Local Smoke in Neptune...great ribs! Pit boss will be a lot closer to me so I hope this place is legit.

        3. Is this where the Philippine place used to be?

            Wasn't the Philippine place inside the strip next door; one strip mall over. I remember enjoying two separate meals there; like eating in someone's living room and then poof they were gone...

            1. re: eleeper

              NO thats the building nextdoor . The Bayshore Tea party is there now . It used to be Trezzas Deli and Trezzas Liqours is right next door .
