New American Restaurants near Belmar, NJ

“I had an incredible dining experience at Klein's Fish Market! The waterfront views from the deck seating provide the absolute perfect backdrop for a relaxing lunch or dinner by the river. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, making it a fantastic spot to enjoy fresh seafood with family and friends.

The food was absolutely outstanding. Every bit of seafood tasted exceptionally fresh, beautifully prepared, and packed with flavor. From the classic seafood platters to their fantastic sushi bar options, everything we ordered exceeded expectations. Pair that with their great craft cocktails, and you have the perfect recipe for an amazing meal.

The service was also top-notch—friendly, attentive, and very efficient despite the bustling crowd. Whether you are looking for a casual dockside bite or an excellent sit-down seafood dinner, this place delivers on all fronts. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return!“

“We had an incredible dinner at Brandl last night. It was a cold and rainy evening so there weren’t too many people out. Therefore we were seated right away and the staff was very attentive. Everything we ate was delicious starting with the escargot which were absolutely divine. For dinner I had the lazy lobster which I’m guessing was about a 1 pound lobster. Perfect size for me and with the asparagus risotto it was so yummy. (If you are wanting a big lobster this isn’t it.) My husband who likes bigger portions had the 16oz steak medium rare and he said it was cooked perfectly. We also had a side of asparagus which was lightly charred and so good! For dessert we had the chocolate soufflé (ordered at the beginning to give it time to cook) and omg it’s worth coming just for that! So incredibly light with a rich dark chocolate flavor, barely sweet. Highly recommend the espresso ice cream with it! The setting is so unique with great vibes. Overall wonderful night out with incredibly good food. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area (without our kids!).“

“Great dinner as response service class act! Loved appetizers and filet and shrimp special excellent“

“My husband and I only just discovered Origins despite living about 2 miles away. The food and service are amazing! I wish we knew about it sooner but we will definitely be back. We started with yummy crab stuffed portobello mushrooms. My lobster risotto special was delicious, and my husband loved his filet. We finished it off with the most unique and delicious combination of flavors, the pistachio ricotta cake. Can’t wait to go back!“
