“Awesome place, right on the water/marina. Today was a perfect day to dine al fresco and soak up the rays.The burgers/fries that we had were delicious, the drinks we had were terrific and our server, Taylor, was excellent.Parking was a bit iffy but we figured it out“
“Ate an early lunch here on a Friday, place was not busy at all. We thoroughly enjoyed the view, the ambiance and the food. My daughter had cheeseburger sliders, my husband had shrimp tacos and I had the fish tacos with some sort of spicy sauce. They were delicious. Minus one star because our very small unsweetened iced teas were $3 each and refills were charged. $15 on unsweetened iced tea was a tough pill to swallow when the plastic cup was overflowing with ice.“
“We went to experience the famous burger. I was disappointed in the soggy bun. The onion gravy was delicious but made the bun fall apart and couldn't enjoy the cheese or the meat Maybe a harder roll would be better. The steak tartar was amazing seasoned and the parpadella small plate could eat as a meal. But the carrot cake OMG!! The BEST!! I would eat here again to get a very impressive salad and the carrot cake again!!“
“Beautiful upstairs indoor-outdoor bar upstairs open seasonally.Satisfying steaks. Delicious collard greens. The best I’ve ever had!Live music on Monday’s.Great specialty cocktails. Bourbon slushy is a must! I’m not typically a burbon drinker but the flavors within this drink mix together so well.Bread pudding desert was average.R bar is a hidden gem in Asbury Park.“
“We had an amazing experience dining at Charlie's. The service staff is extremely professional - best we've experienced in years, especially our waiter - wish we caught his name all we know is he's Brazilian, been there for 4 years, and is very proud to work there. Owners: Give that man a Gold Star. Our meal was fantastic. Very good tuna and salmon, cooked exactly as ordered and plated/served beautifully. No shrinkflation here, the portions are generous so lay off the bread basket if you can. The desert, a dark chocolate and choc mousse masterpiece, was the best desert I've had in my 6 decades of living, no exaggeration.We will definitely return to Charlie's!“
“I have passed this place many times and can't believe I've been sleeping on it! Romantic, cozy, and the food is great. Our server, Eric, was great! Celebrating my sisters birthday dinner was a success. We had the oyster special and arancini balls, dinner for me was the salmon fettuccine. The chocolate cheesecake for dessert was the perfect way to end our meal. Thanks for a great experience - we will definitely be back!“
“One of my fav places to enjoy seafood with a view. Ducks, swans, boats going in & out right outside the windows with lots of great seafood and drink options. Sure, it's crowded in warmer weather, and a little loud due to low ceilings, but it's a classic Jersey shore restaurant with great staff and delicious meals. The Sunset dinners are a deal (before 5pm), so don't miss out on those! Been going here for years, and even though we live about an hour away, will take the drive even on a weeknight to dine here, that's how much we love it. Small lot, but they will park your car in other lots if there's no spots left. Just Go and enjoy!“
“I grew up coming here and haven't been in years. The food hasn't changed and it was really enjoyable. Extensive menu for an Irish pub and it was all good. Kids menu was good. The Reuben was my favorite. The service was good and the ambience was an authentic Irish pub flare.“
“Jean, our server was pleasant, high energy, fast, quick witted, most attentive and will become your best friend as soon as you meet her. Food and cocktails were outstanding !! Live music by Andy Russo was a pleasant surprise - playing all of our favorite Bruce songs with a special guest joining him playing Stevie Nicks Landslide! Mr C’s was one of the most pleasant dining experiences we’ve had since we’ve moved to Asbury park. This dining experience will not disappoint! We will be back in the near future and cannot wait to be back here in the summer and go up to the sunset deck!“
“We recently hosted my husband's 50th Birthday at the Elbow Room and it was amazing. The staff was incredible along with the food and ambiance. The staff ensured that every single detail was handled perfectly from start to finish (even coordinated with our outside vendors). All of our guests really enjoyed themselves and we look forward to hosting more events here in the future!“
“I love this restaurant. I used to come with my family when I was a young girl. I live 'down the shore ' now and I still get excited visiting this restaurant. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. I especially love Mandy!! What an outstanding server. Thank you Squan Tavern.“
“I only had the beer so I cannot comment on the food, though...the reviews on that are fruitful and quite good.If you grew up in the Woodbridge-Metuchen-Edison area, you definitely hit up Hailey's on more than one occasion. D'Arcy's has the same vibe, just closer to the Jersey shore. "Football" scarves are in abundance, great crowd, great beer. What more could you ask for? The Irish are the best...or maybe I'm just a little biased. Slainte.“
“Great Irish pub! Nice atmosphere, dark wood, 2 levels, and fireplace on 2nd level. Wonderful menu of traditional irish fare along with irish american choices. They have fabulous Irish music sessions every Tuesday evening. Staff is great too, friendly and efficient. It's one of my favorite places to go either on a date for 2, or a family dinner.“
“We just discovered this bar. It was recently refreshed - Clean, comfortable, and bright. Forget the old McCann's. Yay! A real happy hour - 12-6 every day. We're eating through the menu. So far, everything is excellent! We've had the wings - so fresh and hot. Quesadilla was hot and a generous portion. Shepherds pie to die for. Maryann is awesome.“
“Have been coming here for 20+ years since I was a kid. I swear it keeps getting better. Years ago sometimes you'd have a bad day, a rough server, food that was good but not great. That's never the case the last several years everything about this place has gotten better. I get something different every time and today's was my favorite cocktail and favorite meal.“
“It's in BELMAR. Ok? The old Paul's Tavern, expanded to host up to three musical acts at once, great space and there's something for everyone!! To heck with this Lake Combover nonsense tho. Parking is definitely a pain, but it's a beach town, it's to be expected!“
“This is a great local spot in downtown Point Beach. Went Saturday afternoon and sat at the bar to watch some bball games. The bartenders were excellent, Chicken tacos were phenomenal and huge portions. Not very big inside but great spot to have a beer and all who were working Saturday could not have been any nicer! 5 stars all around thanks Amendment 21.“
“Went last night for dinner. The design of the place is very nice and they had live jazz music in the corner.Service was great and very attentive. I ordered the asparagus soup and the lamb pappardelle. Delicious, filling meal. I sat in the lucky seat so I got a free drink! Fresh OJ. Overall great experience. Hope to be back for more food and music!“
“I came on a Thursday afternoon after a long Wednesday night and let me tell you for those of you that don’t know these can be some of your toughest ratings based off physical and mental prowess. The food was stellar and the service second to none. I was just speaking with my party about what kind of burger we wanted and it came out split on the plate for us. Watching the bartender behind the bar absolutely command the grill was an experience in itself. I would suggest stopping in for 4 hours and leaving fulfilled.“
“We love this place. Have been coming here for years. Great food, especially the pizza. It has lots of seating including booths, high tops and tables. The bar is spacious and the crowd is friendly. The staff is great, no matter how crowed it is everything comes out quickly. Past night had the spinach dip that was made in a bread bowl, my new favorite appetizer, feeds two people. Plenty of parking.“
“They charge you on soda refills which was $3.50 a pop. It should be noted they charge for refills. I didn't see any notation on the menu. I may have missed it, but next time I'll order only one. It is BYOB place. I wonder if I can bring a soda??“
“Went here on a Saturday. Bartender Laura was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the working of the bar and food. Etc. Cute little "dive bar". Right up our alley. Not noisy. The patrons were all locals and friendly. We had a few drinks. Played some pool and left. Will definitely be back for lunch or their Sunday brunch.“
“We brought our family there who were visiting for the weekend, 10 adults and 2 babies. Sean answered our call when we asked if they could accommodate us all and he then greeted us when we got there. He was very welcoming and nice, Our service was great. I did not catch our waitresses name but she is a younger girl and was amazing. She was beyond friendly and attentive. We all got different foods. The special, butternut squash soup was a huge hit at our table. Everyone loved their dinner as well ( chicken franchise, lasagna, short ribs to name a few) and my leftovers were just as good the next day. We certainly plan to go back. Thank you to the staff there for a great family dinner.Kid-friendliness: Our waitress reviewed all of the kids menu options with us and both our waitress and Sean checked on the two little ones while we were dining.“
“Took a daytrip to Belmar and decided to check out Anchor Tavern. The bartender Lindsey was friendly and accommodating. She recommended the wings which were cooked perfectly with their house bbq. 10/10! Manager Emerald made me feel welcomed and was very pleasant to talk to. Great service, great atmosphere. I imagine the Anchor is the place to be in the summer time. Check it out!“
“Went with my husband today, he had the crab cake sandwich with house cut fries, both were delicious. I had the blackened shrimp poke bowl. First time I had a poke bowl and it will definitely will not be my last. I only gave the atmosphere a 4 star because it was super loud inside and I basically yelled the entire time to talk. We had Victoria as our server and she was an excellent one at that. Prompt and extremely pleasant. We will go back again to try something else and hopefully have her again as our server.“
“We just had our wedding at Watermark on Saturday and I could not wait to leave a review. Everything exceeded our expectations!!! The owner Russell was so easy to communicate with and was hands-on for the entire wedding. We truly felt that by the end of the event, Russell and his staff were part of our family. The wait staff and bartenders were amazing. But the food blew our minds. I never expected it to be as good as it was. The weddings at Watermark are very non-traditional. There is no sit-down dinner, yet they provide more than enough food. The third course is called "mini meals" which they pass around in bowls. These were unbelievably delicious. And the venue itself was just so classy yet casual. The couches and comfy chairs, huge windows with an amazing view of the ocean, big dance floor, and an awesome second-floor deck. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a non-traditional wedding to check out Watermark.“
“My wife and I recently moved into the Brick area, and I pass the restaurant weekly. In doing some research<, I saw that they have a very interesting menu and several specials on Monday nights. My daughter and granddaughter were here visiting with us, so we gave it a try. Service, food, server and music were great. Will definitely be back.“
“This restaurant has an old fashioned pub atmosphere. I got seared scallops special on their specials menu. Scallops cooked perfectly served with light avocado grapefruit and pickled onions. Their burgers are supposedly really good as well. Their butter was infused with something sweet, so of course, was delicious. And their wedge salad was one of the best I've ever had. It had a light blue cheese dressing with tons of extra blue cheese and a lot of bacon and tomatoes. Absolutely delicious.“
“Okay the gelato and tuna salad/panini is to die for here. Great coffee too.The rustic European atmosphere is top notch, great friendly service and generally fun environment to hang out in. There is good music on all the time and a TV playing classic movies. I am not a big drinker but the Whiskey Sour (Gold Rush) is my favorite in town.“
“I have been going to this restaurant for a number of years. The staff is always lovely. Very well trained and kind. The food is superb. Always cooked well and delicious. The fireplace room is my favorite. The live music is always tasteful. Really a great spot!!“
“Our favorite place to go and have a good meal or snack and drinks. Everyone there is always nice..Parking: If it's crowded, that's the only time you would have an issue parking.Kid-friendliness: Every time we have been there, there are families there. Kids from infant and up..Wheelchair accessibility: In the dining area, you can have a wheelchair.“
“I stayed at the guest house for a month during the off season and absolutely loved it! Ross was so accommodating and his staff were all very nice and good company during my stay. The food was delicious each time I ate at the restaurant. Highly recommend renting a room at the guest house!“
“Unmatched Italian dishes in Asbury. The food was delicious & we were able to enjoy great drinks from the bar. I recommend the sidecar cocktail. As for food, one people from our party is vegetarian, but the menu did not reflect many limitation for them. We were still able to enjoy plenty of great dishes. Well done ??“
“The jerk dry rub wings were phenomenal. The carrots and celery were very fresh.Two of us had fish and chips, which was not only delicious but a great portion for a great price.One of us had a chicken burrito (w/ tortilla chip & pico de gallo) special that was also delicious and a great portion.We all shared a peanut butter explosion, which was also phenomenal.“
“The food was delicious. What truly stood out was the exceptional service. Our server was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience. The atmosphere was casual and relaxed, making it the perfect spot for a laid-back meal with friends or family.“
“I've been here many times, so I'm surprised I have never written a review. Last night, I had the ahi tuna tacos because I wasn't that hungry and they do not come with any sides. My friend had the filet mignon with cheese on an English muffin which was kind of a weird combination but she said it was okay. I forget the exact titles of what my other friends ate, but there are pictures here showing their food.“
“I love the Boathouse, I just wish that I could bring my children here, we stayed veiled and we were held back and could not go forward. Excellent food here I highly recommend it.Vegetarian options: Delicious vegetarian menu , all of the dishes are very goodKid-friendliness: Kid friendly atmosphere“
“Shout out to management for being vigilant. To Victoria for supporting the bar by running out sides of ketchup to us while the bar was slammed. Dillon and Matt were super great. Wanna send them some special praise. Keep those 3 employees as long as possible.“
“Rods is a great spot for casual coastal dining. The food is consistently tasty, and they offer a reasonable menu of gluten-free free options for those with diet restrictions that don't leave you stuck with a basic salad or plain chicken (something not many places offer). It may not have the most eclectic menu, but there is certainly something for everyone (even kids!).The atmosphere is great for a casual date night or dinner with your family. Stop by on the weekends during warm weather to enjoy the heated deck with a delicious beverage.Overall, it's our go-to for dinner with the inlaws or a night out when I can't convince myself to cook or clean dishes .. my husband never turns down a night at Rods, ladies. ?“
“Had my husband's surprise 30th birthday here (we've been several times before - it's one of our favorite spots!) and they were amazing from start to finish. Super easy to book, flexible with the menu, and our serve Kelly was on top of it the whole time. She made everything super easy and was so attentive to our decently sized group. Food was brought out promptly and everyone raved about how good it was. Will continue to come here for dinner and will definitely be on the top of our list for parties in the future!“
“My husband and I recently moved to the area and go to Rella’s about once a week! Every dish is delicious and their service is always friendly and super! My favorite is pasta night on Wednesdays! Also their pizza is one of the best in the area. Thank you Rella’s!“
