50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Brielle

“Great Drinks! Great Food! Tuna Tartare is the best I’ve had.“

“I remember this place being Simkos. But I was hungry and other places around I didn't feel like going to. Decided to stop here. It was quiet. Not sure why no one is here but I don't see anything wrong with this place. Maybe since I got here at an off hour between lunch and dinner. This is a positive review. Chicken sandwich I had was fantastic prices are normal. If youre reading this, come check it out!“

“Living in Point Pleasant means having an endless lineup of incredible coastal spots right in our backyard, but Red’s Lobster Pot is the one place I will never stop raving about.
It completely captures that old-school, local fishing village charm. Sitting on the deck right along the Manasquan Inlet while the boats come in sets a scene that you just can’t replicate. It’s laid-back, welcoming, and feels like quintessential Point Pleasant.
The food level here is unmatched. You can taste the absolute freshness in every dish—it’s pure dock-to-table quality. Whether you’re diving into a steamed lobster or whatever special they’ve pulled in that day (my personal go-to order), the kitchen lets the quality of the seafood shine without overcomplicating things.
What truly sets Red’s apart, though, is the team. The service is consistently sharp, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. In a town packed with great dining, Red's is the one spot that simply gets it right every single time.“

“Attended the four course wine/dinner pairing. The dishes were all seafood based. Everything was delicious! I even enjoyed the salmon entree. Normally I would never order salmon out. It was much better than expected. The wines were Pinot grigio with the appetizer, Chardonnay with the salad. Cabernet with the salmon-which I thought going in it was an odd choice, but it was a great match-who knew! The desert was dark chocolate/cherry combination with Coppola's Claret. I'd never had that wine before but was perfect with the desert. There's a bourbon dinner pairing special coming up- I'm sure I'll be there!“

“My wife and I had a wonderful lunch at Prime 13. The steaks were cooked perfectly and a very nice size for a lunch entree. Looking forward to going back for dinner. The tomahawk steaks looked absolutely delicious. After lunch we walked across the street to their butcher shop and purchased an incredible double cut pork chop. Just cooked that on my grill and it was fantastic!“

“We had the boiling point ordered for Sunday for a birthday party. It was ready and when we cooked it we had an amazing dinner. The crab legs and shrimp and clams were spectacular. This is the place to go for great sea food. Awesome job 5 stars.“

“We have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while now and finally decided to take the drive this evening and it was so worth it! The service was so personable and friendly! That said we knew it was going to be a good evening before even trying our food! Then we had the tuna pizza and ceviche PHENOMENAL! We asked if we could have chips with the ceviche and at first they were unsure but they made it happen and it was so good! We also tried three rolls and honestly they were some of the best we've ever had! We cannot wait to be back!“

“buena comida y buen ervicio“

“Tonight was my second time doing happy hour at JoeBellas. The Fig and Pear martini is straight up divine. The happy hour menu is fun. I had no problem eating Parmesan Truffle Fries for dinner LOL so so yummy. My husband and I brought his cousins last Saturday for a beautiful sit down dinner and as we were being seated we saw our neighbor's from two houses over! Bought them a round of course. Everyone was very happy with their meal. What a fun local restaurant. You'll wait in the summer time of course, totally worth the wait but now that we locals have it back I'll be frequenting more often. I happen to bring a friend tonight who is now a loyal fan. #lovejoebellas“

Food was quite good for a chain restaurant and prices are reasonable, portion sizes a bit too big for me! My only critique is reaching the service staff to clear dishes between courses - with appetizers, entrees and desserts it becomes a real mess!“
