“We've been going to the Phoenix for decades. we've gotten to know the staff and owner. Good service and fresh, hot, delicious comfort food.“

“bad experience at Vicks yesterday. The cheesesteak looked nothing like the pictures on their site. The meat was not flavorful. not chopped up enough. The cheese was just laid on top of the cheesesteak and came off when I took off the paper. they forgot my mushrooms and they didn't even cut it in half. I'm really surprised that the reviews are so high. I even paid the money for the extra meat?“

“Came by here two days in a row and the food was exceptional each time. Had the bacon cheeseburger and wife had the beer battered fish and chips. She loved it and my burger was cooked perfectly. Kaitlyn was our server and was very attentive and oh so nice. She answered questions we had and was very efficient. She is a great asset to your restaurant and the place was very clean and had a great atmosphere. Hang Time does a super job and very inviting“

“Awesome bagels abs great staff!“

“This was our 1st time here, wasn't sure what to expect. Place was wonderful, exceeded our expectations. Reserved a cabana and fire pit due to unpredictable nj weather. Didn't disappoint. Large enough for our party of 6. Fire pit was cozy. Dominic our waiter was spot on, very attentive, met all our needs. Other staff we encountered were all friendly, helpful.
I would order food when you get there. Boozy hot chocolate delicious, adequate drink options, hot drinks.
Plenty of things for kids to do.
Can't wait to go back next year.“

“First of all, we love ALL of our customers and I can tell you that we serve a variety of ethnicities. I can also tell you that our chefs cannot hear a thing back in our kitchen, so if you did say something, I can guarantee he didn’t hear you. But to put a bad review without even knowing the circumstances and trying to give us a bad name is irresponsible and immature. Maybe next time you can stop and ask instead of ASSUMING. Have the day you deserve ?“

“We ate there last night. It is an upscale restaurant with white table clothes. You should eat on the patio facing the marina. Two of our dishes were very good- the flounder and the lobster ravioli. They had Slacktide Pale Ale on draft, which is great. You need reservations here, even during the week (in-season.)“

One of our party had the tuna wrap, one had the falafel salad, one had grilled cheese, and I had “The Stu”. We were all very pleased with our choices and the service. We will definitely be back again!“

“Lovely time at Sirens! We went on a busy summer weekend and the location and atmosphere are beautiful.

Got the garlic shrimp which were great , as well as a blueberry cocktail with fresh blueberries. 10/10 recommend!“

“Chef Niko is always creating something new that we have never had before. His ability to combine flavors in his dishes is second to none!“

“Food was wonderful but the menu keeps changing and not enough variety for people with food restrictions! The Tuna melt is gone from the menu I just found out today! And the Delicious Carrot Cake 🍰 🥕is no longer available! I hope they bring BOTH these items back in the future! Our cashier Saba was wonderful and understanding. She helped us pay our bill with no confusion. Can’t wait to come back!! Whenever you come to Resorts Casino come to Breadsticks and have SABA check you in and do your transaction!!“

“I was in atlantic city . I have walk past this truck a million times when I visit atlantic city. So yesterday i was hungry i didn't want to eat food i could get in New York. The guys that work at this truck are nice. They are willing to listen. When i tell you that Chicago cheesesteak was lit. The fries and the mozzarella sticks. Awesome. I would come back ago.

“Nikki the bartender was amazing!!! Always on top of our drinks and food. I worked for a retail and restaurant environment and for her to be able to take care the bar and the rest of the restaurant drinks in a busy night, I will said I was impressed with her performance. Manager was great to as well being on top of customers and help the stuff. I will definitely come back to the Mays Landing location again. TMs like Nikki need to be reward for her excellent costumer service and performance as an employee!“

“Invited my friend for her Bday treat and was not disappointed 🤩 steak was melting in my mouth and my friend said that fillet mignon was super tender !! potatoes and veggies simply delicious 😋 very good service and atmosphere 🥰 highly recommended 5⭐️👌“

“They've been going through transitional periods... I get it. You get it. We all get it.
However, as of late, the kids are trying! Not much leadership other than their manager, who, for me is amazing.
Lately their newer hires are actually customer service forward, but also, just... friendly.

I've always come here, but as of late, compared to the others, the kids here... are actually on it.WITH A SMILE.
Food on point.
Don't sleep on WB“

“Amazing food, excellent staff. Comfortable inside and outside seating.“

“I am writing this review in response to the review from 3 weeks ago where someone is claiming that Philly Steaks and Subs has left their meat out all night long😂😂😂. I took my own picture and just wanted to let everyone know the case is full of assorted nuts. No meat is ever in the nut case 🤪🤪🤪. No meat was harmed during the creation of this review 😂😂😂. Also I showed the employees the last review claiming that they need to shut this place down immediately. They all shook their heads 🤪🤪🤪“

“Way fun since I was 21. Now I’m 59. Great memories and people!“

“Stopped in while spending a long weekend at the shore. Local hot spot for sure as they still had a good crowd despite being off season. The wings are definitely a must as they were well seasoned and a nice size. I had the stuffed flounder while husband had the seafood combination. Everything was tasty and the portion sizes were good.“
