“Best Dinner in the area great prices“

“I had such a fantastic time visiting Lobo's Pizza & Grill recently. The pizza is genuinely delicious, with a crust that hits that perfect balance of crispy and chewy, and the toppings always taste fresh. Beyond the pizza, their grill menu offers some really great options, making it an easy spot to satisfy everyone in the group. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service was friendly and efficient, even during the busier hours. It’s definitely become a go-to local favorite for a reliable, high-quality meal.“

“The best dinner I've ever had! The Grilled Octopus was amazing, the Caesar Salad was awesome...the Scallops were delicious...but the Ricotta, Honey, Almond and Nutella Torte was out of this world! Amy was the best waitress, her attentiveness and service were stellar! We cannot wait to go back!“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥 must stop when visiting sea isle city“

“Great place to eat! We come to both of the Ocean City, NJ locations!“

“We ate there last night. It is an upscale restaurant with white table clothes. You should eat on the patio facing the marina. Two of our dishes were very good- the flounder and the lobster ravioli. They had Slacktide Pale Ale on draft, which is great. You need reservations here, even during the week (in-season.)“

“The Water Star Grille is the outdoor restaurant on the bay at the Reeds in stone Harbor. The food is expensive, but that comes with the territory. Our server was very pleasant and the quality of all the food we ordered was great. I was disappointed that you only get 6 oyster half shells for $28.....but I should have asked about quantity before ordering. I am pretty sure that I have never only received 6 oysters when ordering an iced tray of oysters before. The reason to go here for dinner is the view of the sunset over the bay for dinner outside on a beautiful summer day.“

“Everything was perfect!! Food was outstanding! Service was fantastic. Very chill atmosphere. I highley recommend.“

“We make a trip to The Village Kitchen every year—both on our way to Cape May, NJ and on the way back—and it never disappoints. The food is consistently outstanding, and the service is just as excellent. This cozy spot is a hidden gem for breakfast and lunch. The chipped beef, in particular, is absolutely outstanding—easily one of the best we’ve had. Highly recommended!“

“I have never had a bad experience at this restaurant. The food, along with the staff are the best. Enjoy.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’re locals and chose Sax at the Reeds to celebrate our anniversary on a Tuesday night in September. Since many of the local steakhouses were closed, we decided to give Sax a try — and we’re so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming. Our server, Patrick, was absolutely outstanding. He was attentive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and wine list, and even made something as simple as choosing a steak knife a fun and memorable experience. He explained where the knives came from, what they were made of, and offered his favorite — such a unique touch! The food was just as impressive. I went with a mix of apps and a salad — the shrimp cocktail (huge shrimp!), perfectly seared local scallops (I was expecting three and got closer to eight!), and the truffle cheese burrata salad, which was loaded with heirloom tomatoes, arugula, basil, balsamic reduction, sea salt, and basil oil. Everything was fresh and delicious. My husband had the New York Strip with truffle fries and grilled asparagus — a perfectly cooked, hearty steak that left him very satisfied. We left completely full and so happy with our experience. Sax exceeded our expectations in every way, and we’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend for both locals and visitors looking for a special dinner spot!“

“WoW WoW WoW ! Today was my first time dining here and it certainly won’t be my last. Everything was incredible. Shrimp tempura for a starter and it was outstanding. The salmon dish was out of this world and like no other salmon entrée I have ever had. You will not be disappointed and the service was top notch! Well Done jays on third“

“Jessica is the epitome of a true bartender. Friendly, attentive, and always one step ahead with a refill, she kept the energy upbeat and welcoming all evening. During Happy Hour she was the only bartender working for quite a while, yet she handled the crowd with ease and kept the entire bar running smoothly. Her personality, professionalism, and hustle made the experience exceptional. Jessica is the real deal!“

“Warm Bread Pudding!!! Yum“

“When I am at the shore and I think seafood, I think Back Bay Seafood. Honestly, best crab cakes I ever had. And let’s not forget the broiled scallops, and stuffed shrimp, and the list goes on! Amazing food, high quality, and excellent customer service. Not to mention, family-owned business that appreciates their customers and are dedicated to providing quality meals, the kind you eat with your friends and family and make those down-the-shore memories. Can’t say enough good things about Back Bay, except I’ll be back real soon!“

“My wife and I really enjoyed dinner. We had fish tacos that were absolutely fantastic.“

“our second time coming here. we made a special trip on our vacation because the food is phenomenal. our server Matt was the best. We will definitely come back again on our next trip nearby.“

“So delicious, we went there 3 days in a row to get sandwiches to eat on the beach. I got the buffalo chicken wrap and my husband got the Italian hoagie and a roast beef hoagie. They did not disappoint!“

“Love the Bread & Cheese Cupboard!! It’s a must visit, year after year. Thank you for being one of my favorite locations in Stone Harbor 🧡“

“I want to give a special shout out to Kent Miller of the Shorebreak Grille and his staff. We held a Celebration of Life luncheon on their back patio for about 45 people. Kent was wonderful to work with. The menu and table setup was exactly as we had asked. The delicious food kept coming and the staff was delightful. They appreciated the importance of the event and made it special for our entire family. I highly recommend Shorebreak for a special event or simply dining out with family.“

“Went tonight for the first time being a first generation Irish American the Shepard pie was awesome but from the second we walked in the door evie was inviting welcoming and personable. Would come back to see her any night of the week and can’t wait to try more of there menu“

“Always consistently good food.“

“I stick to two items that never disappoint: the French Onion soup served in a crock and the hot roast beef w/horseradish and au jus for dipping. The onions are caramelized perfectly so they don't get mushy. The roast beef is lean, tender, and flavorful and the fresh horseradish gives plenty of bite. Hasn't changed in 20+ years; comfort food that spans the generation!“

“Great food great service. Daniele our server was super sweet and so accommodating“

“Good food, good beer. Best Brussels sprouts ever!“

“Great for children of all ages. Every Thursday night they have an outdoor movie. And the ice cream is always good.“

“Steak Out serves a great breakfast! Love stopping here while we are vacationing in Sea Isle. We have been going there for over 20 years. The atmosphere is cozy, cute, small beach town vibes. Breakfast is amazing! Coffee is great! Staff is nice and place is always clean!“

“Stopped by to pick up some shrimp for my first attempt at a seafood boil and this place had everything super fresh and the price was lower than we expected for Jersey Shore. Ended up getting 4 pounds of peeled shrimp, 2 bags of crab legs/claws and fried flounder sandwiches that were also delicious. Our boil turned out amazing all of our guests raved about it. Could have even gotten all of our produce here if we wanted to they had everything.“
