“Been coming here since it's opening. It's a good place to have a delicious sandwich with a cold draft and enjoy the music of talented musicians.

This year, the service and kitchen staff are back in sync. The menu choices are perfect and the food is very good. Sometimes when it's a busy night, the bartenders also work as wait staff and take table orders for food and drinks. Service is slower so expect to wait on those nights.

We enjoy Taco Night Tuesdays and Open Mic. We also love Trivia Nights and the live music on the weekends. We hope to see this wonderful local establishment stay around for a long time! It would be even better if they could expand the building. Perhaps another floor with a wrap around balcony to take in the amazing water view. Overall, we highly recommend this fine establishment. It's truly a great place to eat, drink, and tap your feet to some good music!“

“The staff is incredible. They do not serve desert, BUT they are affiliated w Copper Canyon which is next door. The bartender told me if I got dessert from them I could sing happy birthday here.
I called the copper canyon, and that only did they give me dessert, but they delivered it on a plate with candles over to gaslight! Thank you to the bartender at GL and server at Copper Canyon who helped me 2-28-26!🎉“

“Wow the pizza was amazing. Love the thin crust, the sauce was good. Just yummy. Next time I’d only order just pepperoni cause the bacon was just ok. We ordered an appetizer of fried ravioli (skip appetizers, just get pizza. Trust me) the vibes of the place were great after a day in the ocean.“

“Came with friends to Portside to surprise my friend, Michael Cappetto, who was performing that night. Was never here before but I have to say the food was awesome, as was the entertainment! Michael is an amazing singer / guitarist and I highly suggest going to Portside to see him and have some fantastic food!“

“Really friendly bartenders, fun atmosphere & always consistent good food make D’Arcy’s a place I keep going back to.“

“Fun venue and delicious chicken fingers!“

“We love coming to our local Applebees especially since we always get Sage our favorite waitress! She was absolutely fantastic and always gives us the best drink and food recommendations and always has such a kind demeanor and attitude and is always a pleasure.“

“What a pleasant experience we had here with our kids. Food was delicious, the food came super quick. The waitress was incredibly nice and accommodating (thanks Cynthia!) giving our kids the best restaurant experience. Best meat kosher restaurant.“

“Fun place to watch sports. If you are not a fan of loud places then this is not your spot. Recommend take out. My husbands burger was very good. Tasted fresh and delicious. The black bean patty was just okay. Could have been cooked better in the middle but was decent. The French fries are the best. Always a good time. Crispy and flavorful!“

“Smitty's has been there for years!..family owned and operated!..cheap prices, if its not in stock they will order it for you so its there when yu go back...very personable people, they know your name and your usual drink of choice...they really make you feel welcomed!..highly recommend stopping in, im sure theyll have what youre looking for!“

“I had the Cajun chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The bartender Jennifer turned me on to their French fries and just like she said they were also delicious. first time being there I will definitely go back if I find my way up there again great place good food cold beer nice people.“

“**Over the years even though 6/10 I’ve had to make sure I tell them that I want my food fresh when I go late night it’s still a great vibe/quick eats spot!**

YESTERDAY and the time before this location got it more than right! My mother is in town and she is one to impress. Our dinner server Christine was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond for my families visit. Everything was Fresh, Nothing needed to be sent back. I tried the Sesame Salmon Bowl which was absolutely DELISH! 10/10!

We even tried their new Don Julio drinks which were very tasty! (& you can take that cup home).

-Slight Con- was the limited amount of Chips originally received with the Spinach Dip; but even then they took care of us and gave us extras right after with no extra charge!

Thank you Ocean Applebees for an amazing experience.“

“First time here and I wish it wasn’t love loved this place everything was beyond perfect and delicious food drinks (wish I took pictures but when something looks and smells that good u don’t think of pictures)service definitely coming back.“

“Stopped at Val's Tavern because we had a 2 hour gap between a wedding and reception. Service was excellent and so was the food. Our server, Gabby, went above and beyond when we needed some Tylenol. HIGHLY recommend Val's!“

“love it here and the people“

“Got married in Vegas then threw a celebration with family & friends. Couldn’t have been more perfect 💕👍🏻“

“Great place to hang and watch a game or two.“

“We love MJs so sad our Tinton Fall closed but Mary and I (Resurfaced) played an awesome show at the great Neptune location to a packed crowd. Bar was wrap around big!!! Bartender and wait staff were awesome, we will be there again soon. The salmon was best I had in a long time, an amazing smoked crust broccoli and mash wow loved it. Can’t wait to go again soon.“

“Great food and service in a relaxed atmosphere!“

“My friend groups loves coming here! The decor is so fun with trinkets and quotes all over the walls. You are bound to find something new every time you go. There are a few areas that you can hang out in - the chill outdoor patio, the indoor tent where you can enjoy the music, and the indoor bar area where a lot of the action is so you can really hang out based on your mood. The free pizza ticket with every drink is the cherry on top. The line can be quite long but it does move fast and will be worth it in the end!“

“The food is only average, but the service was exceptional. Sandy, our server, was so warm and welcoming she really made our time special. We have been here several times over the past few years and this is the most fun we had (even though we couldn't win a race).“
