“We ordered the take out and ate in the back along the water. The food was good which is why I didn't get any photos 😅.
The crab cakes are good, but the butterfly shrip with Crab gives you the most bang for your buck IMO. You get 3 large shrimp and each shrimp seems to have 1/2 of a crab cake on it.

The snapper turtle soup was good but very salty.
There are 3 other resturants that share the same seating area so I would check them all out and see which you would like the most.“

“We’ve been waiting a long time to try this “hidden gem” although it’s not so hidden anymore as Philly Inky’s Craig Laban named it one of 20 places for seafood down the Jersey Shore this month. My wife had the famous scallops and thought they were delicious, reminded her of classic, fresh taste of the shore scallops from youth. My burger was good. Fries were tasty. Drinks were proper. Service was attentive. The scallops alone are reason to return.“

“I have used Lucky Bones’s Eric three times in the last five years for catering parties at my home/in my yard. Twice I also booked waitresses with my party. The food is always delicious, the service reliable. We ran out of chicken tenders for the kids once and they brought over a new batch! Everything is set up as ordered and arrives on time. You can’t go wrong with them for your party. My father’s small after-funeral reception was in their back room and my husband and I eat at the restaurant at least once a month. Highly recommend.“
