“Yum 🤤 second year in a row for OSM! 🦞 🦐 🧈 🥔 🌽“

“Worst experience of my life! I had my micro wedding here and was charged for things I didn't get. No drinks were verbally offered they just had a separate table with pitchers of water on it. We paid $100 extra to have a table set up with lemonade and or iced tea pre ceremony. I was supposed to be able to set up my wedding favors on this table as well. The seafood dish was supposed to have scallops in it and we noticed they omitted them. In the private beach area where we were supposed to have our ceremony they had an event going on up to 15 minutes before my ceremony. They had picnic tables alongside the ceremony just overlaping and pushed against the fence I had to ask them to move so they would not be in my pictures. I had barely any time to set up decorations. The air-conditioning was broke supposedly in the whole restaurant they could not even provide fans so my guests were very hot and uncomfortable. The upstairs was supposed to be our rain plan but we asked if we could have everything up there and the GM would not allow us to move to the upstairs that was air-conditioned and not being used but I was allowed to change into my dress upstairs. We were told it cost more to have it upstairs. I felt like considering the air conditioner not working they should have moved us. Honestly I could go on and on but I'm too exhausted! I felt like I missed out on a lot of photo opportunities and moments bc of how hot and uncomfortable everyone was!“

“Great pizza and a friendly staff!“

“I recently stopped in for brunch at the bonefish grill in brick and had the best time. Aaliyah was our server and she was great. Very upbeat and personable. Audrey the manger stopped by to make sure our experience was nothing but perfect. She even interacted with my kids which was great. Can’t wait to go back for brunch again.“

“Visiting from Florida, (but former area residents) we had dinner with friends here last night for the first time. Staff is extremely friendly, dining room is decorated very nicely and the menu has much to offer. For appetizers, we had the bang bang shrimp, lobster bisque and calamari. All very good and nicely prepared. We ordered the halibut, short ribs, and scallops…. again…. all delicious! Kudos to the chefs in the back, as each selection came out beautifully prepared as well…. I would highly recommend this restaurant!“

“They have the best seafood around🥰“

“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.“

“Fast friendly service as well as Drinks being tasty. The food portion size was plenty for a nice amount of leftovers for lunch. So very delicious.“

“Excellent food and friendly customer services every time!!“

“We started dining here as a family this past summer and fall. The food is always delicious and the service is very friendly and attentive!“

“We (a party of 4) had dinner last Thursday (3-7-24). We decide to select our dinner choices from the fixed-price menu being offered that evening. EVERYTHING was wonderful. In reading the other reviews, they truly reflect our own dining experience. This is going to sound a little weird, but I have found this to be true. If the restaurant proprietor (as in this case) provides a restroom facility that goes beyond just clean and tidy, I believe the same attention to detail carries over to every aspect of the restaurant, from food preparation to presentation. Truth be told, I used the facility early in the evening. I can’t speak to what it may look like at the end of a busy summer Saturday service, but its condition would reflect more on the customer comportment. Final note, I’m about an hour away, but it is well worth the drive. GREAT RESTAURANT!“

“This is our first purpose in going to Seaside, 2nd is walking the boardwalk. Fish is always done to perfection, never overcooked never undercooked. Always cooked to perfection 👌“

“Delicious !!! Fresh seafood !!! Wonderful staff !!!“

“The food, Service, and atmosphere were all excellent. The fresh brewed tea is spot on. The Firecracker sauce is Devine and you can't go wrong with the wedge salad. Not a bad thing I can say from my experience.“

“I cannot say enough great things about this place! We have been multiple times for breakfast and try something different each time. Eggs benedict and corned beef hash absolutely scrumptious! But the absolute best is getting their country breakfast with a little bit of everything and we upgraded to oatmea cinnamon raisin pancakes which were to die for! Wash it down with fresh squeezed oj they make right in front of you! We came for lunch and got an open faced rueben with fries and coleslaw 😋 😋 best one I've ever had! We will DEFINITELY be back! Shavon was excellent too! Oh and PLENTY of free parking“

“Wow The best Italian restaurant at the jersey shore if you go Friday or Saturday you better get a reservation I would suggest you get one during the week also to be safe. Byob food and atmosphere are outstanding and the hostess waitresses and owner are so nice they make you feel like you were invited to their home for Sunday dinner with the family.“

“Fantastic food and service! Can’t wait to come back, great, friendly atmosphere.“

“I haven't left a review in while. I have been to F&R for many different occasions. My Brother in law and my wife's mile stone birthday. My own birthday 🎂 and every chance we can stop by. Love the family owned restaurant and all the people running it, front and back. Thanks to Michelle and Danielle Tonight was amazing the Tuna appetizer was tremendous and our favorite dinners were spot on. ( Chicken Papa) And filet mignon. If you have never been there it's a Must. Upscale Italian restaurant. Byo. Love it and Thank you ladies“

“B2 Bistro + Bar Bayville provides a scenic atmosphere with a great dining experience. The menu has a variety of meal and drink choices. From the hostesses, to the servers and bartenders, the staff are friendly and welcoming. They always have great live music and a beautiful pool to enjoy as well. I’ve also attended numerous sports banquets in the upstairs banquet room and the views and food were delicious. My family and I highly recommend B2.“

“Seafood treasures was a wonderful experience for us. We purchased seafood there two nights in a row. The lobsters were cooked from there to perfection and the next night we bought scallops which were very fresh, delicious and sweet!! Highly recommend!!! Marcell was a gem!!!“

“Cute little place. Waitress was lovely. Food was decent. Nothing to really go crazy and rave about. Very very pricey. More expensive than center city steakhouses! Hated the weird dim led lighting. Guitar guy was fun. Wine was good. We would return but wouldn’t rush back. SP has limited options so, God Bless. Don’t blame you for charging top $. Atmosphere was much nicer than Chef Mike ABG. Updated and clean! A plus for that. Thank you for a fun night 🥰 Bring on summer“

“My favorite restaurant in this area. Food is great as well as pricing, service and atmosphere. If you haven’t been there yet, give it a try. You will not be disappointed!“

“Ordered delivery for our first time because our son said that they were great. Young woman on phone was very nice and verified all items in order. Delivery was quite fast for it being dinner time and the young man was very nice.. The chimichangas are outrageous! The green sauce is great but the mole' is really great. The empandas come smothered and can be an entire meal on their own. Really good stuff. They even add seperate containers of rice and beans. This is a superior restaurant.“

“The food was delicious and our server was excellent. We will be going back. Plus a byob is always nice.“

“Delicious meal. Lovely ambiance. Great service.“

“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“

“We had Kate & Ally’s cater a party at our local community center for 100 people. Everything from securing the date, choosing the menu, the food, and the service was top notch! I am so happy we were able to provide such high quality and creative food, but also, to have had the opportunity to just enjoy the party while the Kate and Ally staff handled it all from set up to clean up! Huge thank yous to Dianne, Lindsay, Janet, and Rich for all their hard work to help make my event special!“

“Came on New Years Eve. Servers were very friendly and attentive and Brianna handled our large party very well. 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!“

“Everything was amazing Great place for seafood“

“The flounder basket was excellent- lightly battered with plenty of fresh French fries. The surprise gem was the spicy pineapple hot dog. It the bun was a bit more stable it would have been a blue ribbon winner. Bartender Steve was welcoming and attentive.“

“This place has amazing food in a beautiful location….on the beach! Chef Mike was so gracious and generous when he agreed to have our wedding at his restaurant. The staff were amazing! Food was incredible and if I had to do it again, I wouldn’t change a thing! Thank you for making our day so special!“

“This past weekend I had my baby shower at Catherine’s! Grant and his sister,Alexa, were absolutely fabulous to work with. They were beyond accommodating and communicative throughout the entire planning process. The service the day of was top notch. Staff was very friendly and professional helping the event run smoothly! The food is absolutely incredible, everything from the appetizers to the entrees were fresh and flavorful! If you are looking for a great dinner spot or a local place to plan your next event, I would gladly recommend Catherine’s! Can’t wait to go back for dinner soon 😊“

“There is no reason this restaurant should not be five star! We eat here all of the time, and the food is 100% perfect every time. Perfectly cooked fish, a huge variety of menu items, great cocktails, and live entertainment. Not to mention its waterfront. We absolutely love this Gem of a restaurant, and think you will too! Great for vegetarians and gluten free diners, too“

“The fried calamari is the best!!!“
