Dinner for two was over $250 with no alcohol. Steak special was $90; shrimp dish was $60. Completely overpriced; rushed by waiter thru the meal. Will never go back.

Have dined here numerous times over the past 10 years. Prices have skyrocketed and menu has become limited. Appetizers are geared to selling pricey items. Entrees have become limited and not even a bread or cracker for the table. We arrived for our reservation promptly but were told we had to wait as our table had patrons who had not paid their check. We were seated 25 minutes late, we were fine with that. Clearly the servers were told to try to rush us. Waiters didn’t give us much time to review menu speed talked through the specials and we asked to have more time to think our choices over. We did order received our meals and after we were done and the check arrived the waiter had the nerve to ask us to hurry up and pay another party was waiting for the table. When we complained how rude this was for a $300 meal for 4 the hostess said it was the waiter who shouldn’t have done that. The waiter came over to apologize and told us the hostess told him to hurry us up. If you want to eat in a noisy rushed place that pretends to be NY on LBI go for it. Clearly they are cutting back and in need of better profits with the extremely high prices and limited service and help. They lost a repeat customer.

The food was very well prepared and tasty. Way over priced . $60 for an average size piece of halibut over a bit of spinach. Duck was enjoyed by others I was with and at a better price point (still high $48) Menu is always the same. Nothing particularly special, but all good. Service was good. I would suggest this place if the price doesn't matter or it's a very special occasion and you need a more upscale place. Otherwise, save your money. Eat with regular folks (e.g. not the Love Ladies crowd) and save your money for a really special meal that matches the price.

As always the food was delicious but that’s why I’m so disappointed with my meal! The special offered was 4 blackened scallops with a corn and lobster succotash with asparagus and artichoke. Both my husband and I ordered and received only 3 scallops. I personally had one 1” piece of asparagus and not even one piece of artichoke. Nobody asked how our meal was because it clearly was lacking ingredients. It was so delicious but I left hungry! And the cost per entree was over $60 each. Come on! Don’t say it’s 4 scallops and serve only 3! It will be a long time if ever that I return. We were basically ripped off. Not cool!!!!

My family and I have been coming here for over 10 years now. Yellowfin has always been consistent between the service and their unique dishes. The staff and their ambiance has always drawn us back every Summer. Highly recommend!

A cute swanky, easy cool vibe with a great sound system and exceptional delicious food… tuna pizza is cleaver and well thought out…scallop special was light summery and very plump… waiters did not let a water glass go empty .. we will return… end your meal with the peachy crunch!!! Yummmm Fresh tuna and bok choy is a staple??
Been going there since 1998 there is no other restaurant that compares on LBI. Yellowfin has the best food on the island no matter what you order its the best. Actor Ray Romano was eating also the same time I was dinning in July 2023.

This restaurant was a pure disappointment. As one who frequents fine dining, I was surprised at how poorly the service and food was. The staff was obnoxious the food was fine. They acted liked we were lucky to be there. It was very overpriced and they have no liquor license. The restaurant is small and cheaply decorated. Nothing special at all. Would not recommend.

Food was good, service was excellent, but portions were very small and WAY too expensive for LBI. I had scallops (one of the specials), got 4 small scallops served with corn and a little lobster, $65. Really??!! They were tasty and well prepared but I hate places that try to be fancy and upscale and are basically a ripoff. Many other better, cheaper and more fun places to eat in LBI. Not recommended and definitely not going back.

Loved the tuna, lobster salad special and the halibut. Brian is a great server. Will be back 2X in August.
