This is such a great little place. The food and staff are top notch. The atmosphere while endearing is very loud so be prepared.

We have been 3 times and everyone always loves it! Food is wonderful as well as the fine dining service. Definitely plan ahead as you will need a reservation to this hot spot!
We weren’t feeling up for dining out but still wanted to enjoy a nice meal. Jay’s staff was helpful, kind, and prepared our order perfectly. The food was as beautiful and delicious as if we were there in the restaurant. Dine in or take out, either way it will be a great meal.

The food is excellent. We had corn & crab fritter app, pad Thai, and the steak dinner. I am only deducting a star bc they charge $25/ per person to cancel a reservation. Being realistic, sometimes things come up, and, yes you may have to cancel and should not be stressed about making a dinner reservation nor be penalized. Their business is busy and the spot would get filled. My only complaint.

While the food was enjoyable, our experience was overshadowed by the fact that they didn’t allow our very small car seat/stroller attachment in the restaurant. There was plenty of room, and I’ve never experienced anything like this before. Not only were we not allowed to wheel our infant up to our table, but they asked us to leave our stroller outside. My husband decided to walk the 2 blocks to the car so it wasn’t left unattended. We had to struggle to take turns holding our squirmy baby and it just felt like we were so unwelcome. I’ve eaten at smaller, better, fancier restaurants with children and we always make it work. If you would like to eat above average food, in a tired and stuffy setting, then this is the place for you.

The hostess Jamie (like other reviews) was disgustingly rude to the point she criticized my 10 month old nephew. Please save your money and don’t eat here. Our waiter was amazing.

Had a great meal. Food was excellent and service was very good. It was very loud. It’s sometimes hard to find very good restaurants in beach/vacation towns but Jays is very good. I do wish it wasn’t so loud.
Fantastic as it always is great menu choices and specials

We recently dined at Jays on Third and while the food was very good, it didn't quite knock our socks off. The main drawback was the portion sizes, which felt overpriced for what we received. Our server was attentive, very pleasant, and nice, but she lacked the detailed knowledge of another server who worked in the same area. Her explanation of the specials was brief, and she forgot to mention a particular special that we might have considered.
We ordered the ribeye entrée, which was excellent and prepared perfectly, and the halibut, which was tasty with a great presentation but disappointingly small for the price. The restaurant was full, and reservations were necessary, indicating its popularity. However, it’s worth noting that everything, including fresh bread and salads, comes with an additional charge. Typically, we don't eat much bread, but this time we did to avoid leaving hungry.
Overall, while the food quality was commendable, the pricing and portion sizes left something to be desired. This was our most expensive dinner while visiting the Jersey Shire. One of the highlights of our day is the place we choose for our evening meal. Great thought and preparation goes into coordinating and scheduling our dinner plans. Reservations are booked weeks in advance so we know where we are going. We choose high quality, upscale dining venues. This was our second visit to Jay’s in 3 years.

This was our first time dining at Jay’s On Third, and I would recommend it for a nice date night or occasion dinner! We had great service and the food was really delicious as well. We had the pad thai and the halibut options. The pad thai is by far the best I have ever had and would absolutely recommend! My husband had the halibut and he really enjoyed that too. My only constructive critique is that I feel the inside could be more modern/updated!

First time at Jays and we LOVED our meal. Katrina was our server. She knew her stuff, checked all the boxes with our food allergies, and served a perfect meal. The pork chop was perfect, the duck was amazing. From start to finish a delicious experience!
Best dinner I ever had !!
