Linguine Clam was amazing and service was great. The restaurant inside tight and was so low lit that many patrons were using their phones flashlight to see the menu. Also the noise inside was very loud. There is some soundboard on the ceiling but definitely need more.

I just came from Ebby’s About an hour ago. What a wonderful experience! I don’t generally like to eat out, because I actually cook for people, myself, and many times lately have been disappointed. I cannot say enough about this restaurant! I have never seen a staff and owner so attentive to its patrons in all the years I have gone out to dinner. Even as the restaurant got quite busy during my time there, the entire staff was on top of everybody and everything. The food was outstanding, the staff was equally outstanding, and the owner is an absolute sweetheart! I highly highly recommend this place.

We had a reservation for dinner and we’re told when we got there that our reservation was only for outside and it was chilly so we needed to wait to get a table inside. We were not greeted with a smile. The owner seemed preoccupied and disturbed. The food was very small portions from the salads to the artichoke franchise. There was a lack of flavor to our meals. The lamb chops were fried like they had shake and bake on them and did not taste like lamb. The meatball was soggy and flavorless. We did appreciate the shrimp artichoke and spinach over Pasta. Overall, it wouldn’t be a place we’d recommend or go back. Sadly, this was a go to place for the years that we lived down the shore. For the record, this is the first review I ever did and I thought it was important to put that out there.

The last couple of times I’ve been there it has not been good. I had the cod last night and it was so dry/over cooked I was barely able to eat it. My husband got the veal parm and it was also way over cooked. The mashed potatoes weren’t even good. I don’t send food back.

SEASIDE PARK: Ebby's is a go-to Italian restaurant and bar with a welcoming, dog-friendly outdoor setup! On one side, you will find a spacious patio perfect for full-service dining, while the other side features a lively outdoor bar, set to expand in 2026! We stopped by for a drink and had the pleasure of meeting Felicia, a bartender who is super cool, fun to chat with, and definitely a highlight of our visit. We loved hanging out, meeting locals, and soaking in the atmosphere. Cannot wait to come back for a delicious meal, drinks, and good vibes!

We had reservations at Ebby’s in Seaside Park for 7:00pm and didn’t get seated until 8:00pm. When they finally sat our group, they sat our group of 8 at a table of 6 missing tw please set an alarm 47 thirty a mo chairs. The restaurant was overcrowded and chaotic, with very little organization. Before we were even asked for drinks, we decided to leave. Instead of apologizing, they said, perfect. At no point did anyone offer a real apology or try to make it right. Completely unprofessional and a disappointing experience. We will not be returning.

Ebbys is my favorite restaurant around. Every dish is delicious and staff is so friendly and accommodating especially the hostess Tina , I can’t thank her enough, she always makes me feel welcomed and truly gives her all to make sure everything is great besides being a lovely person. This restaurant I give a 5 star rating 👍

Upon arrival 15 minutes after they opened, we were greeted by a dour hostess. There were no other customers in the entire restaurant yet she seated us at a tiny table in a side room right next to the swinging doors to the kitchen. Even when we finished there were still 6 empty tables in the room. Every other couple that came in was seated at a table for 4 near a window. Servers were pleasant but food was average at best. Very disappointing since we had heard such good reviews from others.

If I could leave ZERO stars I would. Never in my life have I come across such a NASTY owner who should in no way be trying to run a restaurant. Can’t comment on the food because we left after being treat and spoken to so poorly by the nasty owner. NEVER will I step foot in or near her restaurant especially with so many other warm, welcoming and appreciating places to eat in the area. I hope the next hurricane washes not just the restaurant but the owner as well far out to sea.** Update** please let me be clear about one thing. At no time was our language offensive toward any of your staff or customers. It’s was after we spent $150 on drinks that you tossed us out, even after the bartender and “Billy” said we were not causing a problem. If you are the owner who responded to my review you should be ashamed of yourself for how you treated your never again customers. And if you want to push blame on us.. we’ll take a look back at how many reviews all say the same thing about the owner being NASTY. I guess sometimes people can’t see their own behavior but want to push blame on others.

I have never been treated so poorly at a restaurant before. The owner is rude and disrespectful. Do not go here. There are many restaurants that deserve business. However, this is not one. I wouldn't spend a penny at here after the way that I was treated by the owner.
My party had a reservation, and when we arrived, we were told how to find our table. After going to the table, we saw that there were people seated, we were then told that a mistake was made, and others were seated for our reservation and they were working to find a new table. Mistakes are made, which is understandable in the world, but you should own your mistakes and offer apologies. However, the opposite happened in this case. After being told of the error, I asked if our party could be offered a drink for our inconvenience while we wait. The owner then told me that there was no mistake that had been made and took back what she had originally stated. She then started to speak to me in a manner that I have never been spoken to in a service industry before. She proceeded to berate me for asking for something for free, stating I only want free things. I was appalled. My party then proceeded to spend $150 on 8 cocktails at the bar, waiting to be seated for over an hour. Once my party was given a table, I stood by the table, waiting for the rest of my party to come from inside. The owner walked up to me yelling are you going to sit down or not? I replied yes I’m just waiting for the others. She then sent someone to tell me that I was not welcome there and I had to leave. I would have left immediately at the beginning of this saga, but didn’t want the rest of my party to be effected.
What a terrible way to be treated at an establishment. Instead of offering apologies for the mistake that was made I was treated in a very disrespectful manner. Do not spend your money here. There are many restaurants with good ownership and good people, I’ve never felt this way before, but I hope that this restaurant goes out of Business.

Incredible food, Incredible service, however Manager & Hostess should be updated by Great Employees! Found a piece of Saran Wrap in my salad & manament had an attitude! Seriously?
However Food & Service is FANTASTIC!
Our family loves going to Ebby’s, we are year round customers. The service is exceptional, from the hostess who always manages to be very pleasant and kind, even when it’s crazy hectic to the wonderful wait staff who are always wearing a smile, regardless of how busy it is and who remember us each time we visit. The food is amazing and always good. I generally don’t order my favorite meal from Ebby’s at other restaurants because it doesn’t come even close to their recipe. I look forward to my next visit.

We are fairly new to Seaside Park. This is our third year living here and Ebbys is such a huge part of why we love it. Every meal is perfect. The staff is lovely and they all feel like family at this point. We are treated kindly and the food is consistently amazing! They really go above and beyond even despite very busy summer high traffic times. We have family come to stay in the summers and we always take them here because we know it will be a home run. We love you Ebbys and thank you for making our summers and even off season amazing!
