Rooney's Oceanfront Restaurant

We were looking for a nice place to eat for our 41st anniversary and chose Rooneys based on location and ambiance. The food and views were fantastic! Had the tuna bruschetta and seafood cocktail for appetizers, very tasty! I had the mahi mahi broiled with mashed potatoes and asparagus. She had the tuna and carrots, also very tasty. The dessert was gelato in a hard shell chocolate bowl, with caramel drizzle. Good portions were served and we were not rushed. Definitely worth the hour drive and will plan to return!

LOVE LOVE LOVED Rooney's Came to Long Branch for a girls weekend. Made a reservation for Sunday Brunch through Open Table. The restaurant contacted me to inform me that brunch was unfortunately done for the season and wanted to confirm I wanted to keep my reservation. Their transparency was refreshing and appreciated. We went to check out the restaurant Saturday night and ended up staying for dinner. The food, service and atmosphere was 5 stars. We kept our Sunday reservation as well and were equally impressed. Bravo, Rooney's!

Dinned here for my birthday wasn't pleased with seating. They were under construction so the outside dinning was blocked we were sat in the main room it was a decent setting took some pictures. Definitely look at the menu before since its pricy the overall food was a 6/10. I would have rather went somewhere else. Wished they put they were under construction on their site....

Very rude customer service!

They went all out for the holidays, and the place looked great. This was our second trip in the last month and they’ve really stepped up their game. We have had the artichoke, crabcakes, Cobia , Halibut etc. they haven’t missed on anything. I would highly recommend if you haven’t been there in a while to give it a taste.

We went with friends for the Sunday brunch. The event is a favorite of ours during the off season from Sept - May. This all you can eat buffet includes everything you can imagine plus some options to order from the menu. They have also brought back the raw bar & now added sushi along with an outstanding desert variety. Bring an appetite & comfortable clothes. The ocean view makes it a feast for the eyes as well as your palate. This oceanside restaurant makes a nice stroll on the boardwalk very easy & probably a good idea after all the food you will enjoy!

It is a bit pricey but absolutely worth it! Highly recommend the pork chop, but terrific seafood menu.

Big Fan of this place. Great food with an even better view! Lobster bisque followed by an angry lobster is a dream. I've had the chicken parm sandwich too and it's awesome. Something for everyone including the kids.

I had angry lobsters🦞. It is funny name for me but really. The thing is lobster fresh, salmon fresh all the food and desert so yummy as well. The most I enjoy the food and sad, I forgot to keep photo as a good memory. Maybe next visit will have both. 🥰
