“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!“

“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.“

“I brought my 3 generational family (party of 8) for our nice family meal, along with my service dog. We had a fantastic experience! First, we got there around 4:45, and unknowingly found out that you get a free side salad and drink if seated before 5pm. This cut about $25 off the bill, which was a blessing! The food was good and the atmosphere fantastic. At the end, we chatted with the owner, Mr Giuseppe, and even got to take a family pic of 8 with him outside the restaurant. Thank you so much for such a great family meal!“

“Simply amazing! Perfect food, service and view. The best restaurant at the Jersey shore.“

“While vacationing in Ocean City with my family I stopped by to grab something for dinner one night. Ordered the Mega Colossal Crab Cake, Shrimp and Crab Roll Up, and Lobster Bisque. Everything was delicious. The owner Chris was a super-nice guy as well. If I lived in the area I would be a regular customer at Capt'n Chucky's.“

“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“

“Custard was pretty good. We wanted to go to a la mode but the line was wrapped around the building at 9:30 so we figured we’d try something new.

We got gelaties and custard.

-4 flavors of water ice & 2 flavors for custard…chocolate and vanilla.

It’s CASH ONLY.

Water ice is chunky and not like a Rita’s but still good! It works for a quick treat.“

“Everything is delicious 😋“

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

“We had a reservation for 7:15 on Valentine’s Day, arrived and checked in around 7:10, the hostess was so friendly and calm considering how packed the little vestibule area was, she said there was a little wait but we were still seated by 7:25, which was perfect. Our waitress, Kimmie was amazing! Obviously it was a very very busy night, kitchen was a little backed up, and they were out of most steaks but we were just enjoying our time together. Kimmie made sure we had a drink or food in front of us the entire time and checked in often. The bussers did a great job making rounds and clearing dishes within minutes of us being finished. We had a great experience and will be back to dine here again.“

“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.)“

“great food, love the poke and hawwaiin chicken is always a favorite. Best crab cakes around“

“First time stopping in for takeout and I left with a lot of respect for this place.

When I walked in it was clear the entire operation was being run by one person. The owner was cooking, handling orders, answering the phone, and managing the counter all at the same time. Her young son was sitting up front doing homework. Every time the doorbell rang, a friendly voice from the kitchen welcomed people in even before she could step out.

There were several customers waiting while I was there and she kept everything moving with calm and professionalism. It was a reminder that behind many small restaurants there is a family simply trying to make it work.

The food was exactly what good Chinese takeout should be. Fresh, hot, and consistent. Sadly that bar is not always met these days, but it was here.

It also made me think about how different every small business is and how hard many of them work just to stay open. When you walk into a place like this, remember it may be a takeout counter to you, but it is also someone’s livelihood and, in this case, part living room and homework station too.

Kudos to the mom who is simultaneously the owner, chef, cashier, and entrepreneur. Keep it up, and maybe let your customers know your name so we can yell hello back to the voice from the kitchen.“

“Kathy and Nick are always inventing new, interesting events to make folks proud to call our town Somers Point HOME.“

“Andrea Trattoria catered our wedding in Sea Isle on 9/24/2022. The food was absolutely amazing! It was without a doubt the best buffet we've ever experienced. Tino worked with us to make sure we had a wide variety of apps, salads, and entrees. We requested Gulf shrimp and he was able to make that happen for us! Thank you, Tino and team at Andrea Trattoria!“

“Great meal and service by Gina. The pumpkin raviolis were incredible and light.“

“Great food and entertainment. Terrific, friendly staff. Love Levari's.“

“The servers and managers are not educated with what's in the food. Got sick after going to Oar House Pub and the server saying they have a gluten option for the burgers when they don't. Ended up in the hospital and manager Amy C. can't even say simple sorry and is just an argumentative person. The person below was our server“
