The service was superb and the food was very elevated and well done. I will definitely be a regular at this gem.

I /we went there for drinks and appetizers during happy hour after work. The atmosphere seemed great at first, then we placed an order and began to eat and drink. Our server was great.👏🏽👏🏽 then I noticed that we were being observed by either the owner or the manager who proceeded to approach our table after 15 minutes while we were slowly eating and trying to take in the vibe then asked us were we taking a break from eating as if we were taking up space and time.🤦🏾‍♂️ I explained that I was waiting for another drink and his response was ok are you sure that you don’t want to go plates ? I felt uncomfortable and unwelcomed being that I was already being taken care of from the server and didn’t understand why I was asked if I was taking a break like I was taking too long to eat ,We were there not even an hour when we were approached . We felt like we were being hurried out. 🤷🏽‍♂️ I m not pulling the race card but it was an unwelcoming experience for me/us..

Don’t like leaving reviews but I was really excited to try this place out. We got the chips and dip to start which tasted fine, but we didn’t taste any of the caramelized onion in the dip. The steak bites were decent with the sauce, but they tasted like they were microwaved. I got the Mac burger pizza, which tasted pretty good on the cauliflower dough, but it’s more of a really thin gluten-free flatbread. We were really excited to try the general tso fried chicken sandwich. Long story short it Tasted like it was leftover, not crispy, and really dark meat like stuff that shouldn’t be sold. Anyways, the waitress was nice to take it off our bill and we had no problem with the service, she was very nice and attentive. Sorry but hopefully we can try again in the future

I picked up today and got the chicken parm and white pizza, but the atmosphere was really cozy inside, they have holiday decor too if you want to see some of that, and front desk reception was welcoming :) great first time

Do not sit in the bar area, they totally don't care about you, this place is definitely mismanaged

Solid above average. Less options than a diner, but more interesting fare. Uneven service. Uneven food preparation and presentation, but not BAD. Just OKAY. Very little to differentiate it from a half dozen similar eateries in Toms River.

I've been meaning to post this review for awhile now, but it kept slipping my mind. Went here in early fall on a whim & we were not disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious, with quite a few unique items on the menu! We could have gone there for just the Milk Bread alone though! That stuff is so amazing & we had to talk ourselves out of buying extra to-go after getting like 3 orders while we dined in.

Everything from the smash burger to wings and ribs were delicious. Big portions too. Definitely going back soon. The waitress and wait staff were great too

37 Eats in Toms River absolutely blindsided me—in the best possible way. You walk in expecting “another local joint,” and instead it feels like someone took a diner, a bistro, and a food scientist, locked them in a room, and said “figure it out.” The menu hits that sweet spot where you can order anything and not feel like you’re gambling with your stomach. Flavors are bold without being obnoxious, portions are generous without being cartoonish, and every dish tastes like the chef personally tasted it, nodded, and said, “Yeah, that’ll impress the locals.” It’s the kind of place where halfway through your meal you’re already planning the next one—dangerous, but in a fun “I earned this” way.

Service? Fast, friendly, and actually paying attention instead of doing the fake “everything OK?” drive-by. The vibe is relaxed but not sloppy, and the room somehow avoids that echo-chamber chaos you get at other busy spots in town. They clearly care about getting the details right—seasoning, presentation, even the temperature of the plates. You leave feeling like you got your money’s worth and then some. Bottom line: 37 Eats is the kind of place Toms River should brag about. If the rest of the food scene had this level of confidence and execution, we’d need a waiting list to get into the entire town.
I only complained was the flatbread which wasn't made with marinara sauce, so that's a particular thing to me specifically, I just thought it was somewhat tasteless. But the calamari was definitely above average.

I stopped in for lunch and was just going to have a salad. But they had some specials and one of them was butter beans with some sauces. I asked the waitress about it and she said it was pretty good. It was great! I also got a bowl of potato leek soup. In the picture you can see the focaccia, it looks small in the picture but it was the size of my face and it was really good. So much food. I made dinner out of the leftovers.
