Travel Review GBU
I always look for a busy place when I stop in an unfamiliar place and have no reservation. Walked in and they said there was a 1 hr wait but we were seated in about 25 minutes. Service and service were great. Only disappointment was the wine, for the price it was not good.

Absolutely love it here! Food is amazing and healthy pizza, all organic , waiters and waitresses are super friendly , can’t go wrong. I removed one star because the only horrid thing about this place is the front hostess with the short hair, glasses and bull nose ring. I believe her name is Ingrid. She’s the most unpleasant person, condescending, just overall not someone you look forward to greeting you right before a great meal. We come here pretty often and hope to not encounter her. Otherwise, talulas is awesome overall! Meatballs are delicious , all the desserts are amazing as well.

When I told the Millennial Chum that I wanted to try this place, her reaction was a shrug and an “it’s okay.” Yup. Accurate. We came here for lunch yesterday on a nippy December afternoon, which somehow still required several minutes of searching for a parking spot in downtown Asbury. Even when you’re visiting at the least beach town friendly time of year, you can’t keep Asbury down.
I decided to get the Ginger Hot Toddy and a Margie w/ the $6 burrata/garlic chip add-on. The drink was mediocre at best, and its only selling point was the temperature. It came with a tea bag, which isn’t mentioned in the description and honestly would have likely been a dealbreaker if I’d known ahead of time since I wasn’t in the mood for the steeping drama that comes with it, along with a strange chewable ginger garnish. The main problem with the cocktail is that it contains a lot of lemon and ginger, and not enough honey and bourbon; the overall taste profile is overwhelmingly sour, which for me took away from the drink. Not really getting the thought behind any part of the execution there.
The pizza was honestly a little underwhelming, which it shouldn’t be for the price. It wasn’t bad but the direct/obvious comp for me is the buffalo mozzarella pie at Fresco Da Franco’s in Montclair, which is excellent and actually cheaper than this option. The key to that one at least is that about 10 or 15 seconds before the pizza is done, they quickly add the mozzy to warm it up. I don’t know if the burrata just doesn’t have the consistency or structure to do that, but it’s not great to just have this random hunk of cold cheese in the middle of the pizza – definitely wouldn’t bother with the add-on again. The garlic chips were fine, but it just felt like they were trying too hard to add flavor to a pie that should have already been fine in that regard. Wasn’t impressed, and the crust might have been the best part. For what it’s worth, the Millennial Chum got some type of brussels sprout salad and enjoyed it. She is welcome to write a more positive review if she has the time.
As a pleasant palate cleanser, I got the chocolate gelato, which was as delivered and a nice portion. Initially I side-eyed it thinking I’d just spent $9 on a miniscule hunk of ice cream but given how heavy/rich gelato is, I think it was the perfect size. Maybe don’t go so aggressive on the sea salt on the top, since it’s difficult to mix in so you end up with one or two really salty bites and that’s it, but that’s arguably a nitpick.
The service was the most disappointing aspect of this experience, and a surprising one given that we were at the bar, where you may sacrifice a little comfort but should make up for it on the hospitality side. Our bartender/waitress was just not very good. She was not personable – she literally didn’t smile the entire time we were there and seemed legitimately annoyed in fact when we decided to order dessert, literally writing down what we wanted and walking away with no comments – and rarely stopped by to check in. There were a decent number of customers throughout the restaurant/bar, but I would not say it was packed or crazy in any sense. She was just very slow and deliberate with no sense of urgency. It took a long time for her to come by to take our orders initially, and it was unfortunately a pattern throughout lunch. We almost bypassed dessert because of it, and probably would have if we were on any type of schedule. Maybe we caught her on an off day, but compared to her co-workers, who all moved with a sense of purpose, it stuck out and marred the experience.
Overall, the Millennial Chum got this right. I’ve been to much better places in Asbury. I’d probably come back but for sure I would avoid the bar area, and I’d likely check out the availability of a few other nearby spots first.

Absolutely love Talula’s! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming with that perfect Asbury Park vibe — cozy, lively, and always full of great energy. The food is incredible — their wood-fired pizzas are out of this world, and the ingredients are always super fresh. The staff is friendly and attentive, and you can tell they care about the experience. Whether you’re stopping in for brunch, dinner, or just a drink, it never disappoints. Definitely one of my favorite spots in town!

The vegan pizza was truly Devine, so flavorful ! I tried the mozzarella sticks because they looked amazing but they were a bit too cheesy tasting for my liking.

Food was fresh and delicious. Well seasoned although I would say the vegan Caesar salad was a bit salty. We ordered the elote pizza half with fennel sausage. I would order it again. My only wish is the pizza was a bit more crisp underneath. I would come to this restaurant again 🙂

We had heard a lot about Talula’s and gave it a try. The food was good but not as good as we thought it would be given how hard it is to get a reservation. Everything was fresh and well prepared but the rocket pizza was a bit flavorless and the vegan Caesar salad has some strange flavors. Otherwise it’s a fun place, loud and vibrant with plenty of big parties.

Quickly became a favorites. It’s a great lunch spot, and if you appreciate a good deal, their happy hour is even better!
I tried their classic turkey sandwich, and it was absolutely perfect – layered beautifully and flavored impeccably from the first bite to the last, -loved the bread! (See photo)
Their pizzas are also a highlight. Each slice is loaded with flavor, boasting a wonderfully thin and crunchy crust. I love the flexibility of being able to grab just a slice for a quick bite or a whole pie to share (or not!).
Highly recommend Tulula’s for anyone looking for a delicious and well-priced meal in Asbury Park!

Great spot to hit with a small or medium group size especially. Awesome pizzas, awesome vibes, and great service. The prices might be just a tad north of “fair”, but not so crazy it would knock a star off.
Last I went I got the (now discontinued, sadly) Meat Lovers and my girlfriend got the Margarita. The Beekeepers Lament was my runner up, and I hope to try that next time around. Pizza was solid, as expected.
My girlfriend and I both got salads as well, though those didn’t do as well. The flavors were awesome and the vegetables used were also solid mixes but for some reason both of our salads were excessively “salty”. Not sure what happened there.

such a beautiful day on my daughter‘s birthday the 19th. We sat outside. It was gorgeous out, but those metal chairs were the most uncomfortable things I’ve ever sat on.
