“Beth is hands-down one of the best servers I’ve ever had. From the moment she greeted our table, her energy, professionalism, and genuine personality stood out. She was attentive without ever being overbearing, and she anticipated what we needed before we even had to ask.
My order was perfect, the timing was smooth, and she checked in just enough to make sure everything stayed on point. On top of that, she was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience feel effortless.
Beth is truly an asset to the restaurant, and you can tell she takes pride in her work. I’ll absolutely be returning, and will be asking for Beth every time.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review for Beth“

“We have a great time when Chef prepares food as we the participants get to ask questions about products, recipes, etc! He makes the presentation fun and we always learn something new! Cinco de Mayo dishes were spectacular! Love this place!“

“I Just wanted to thank the staff at TGIF today. Came in today with my family (4 kids) and the hostess came out and said sorry it took awhile but I figured the kids would like to eat in the room and I set up a movie for them! Then the same lady came in towards the end and gave them all cups filled with small goodies. The kids had such an amazing lunch there and the atmosphere the way it was decorated was so nice. It was just such an unexpected experience and I wish I knew the woman’s name to thank her more but I just wanted to let her know how much we appreciate her time, effort, and how much the kids really had a great time!“

“Ate there today for the first time. Lunch was delicious and the coffee was great. Definitely will be going back.“

“Great spot! We come to the area for a few days each year, and this is our go-to lunch stop. Everything we’ve tried has been great and perfect to take with us for a day at the beach. Consistently fresh, quick, and reliable. Highly recommend!“

“I have to give it to this place, it does not look like much sitting inside Fantasy Island Amusement Park in Beach Haven LBI, however with the expanded seating area and some pretty cool menu items like ribbon chips drizzled with bacon and sour cream and cheese and pulled pork sliders, it really hits the spot! I was pleasantly surprised how good it was and how clean the seating area is as well. Staff is really friendly as well. Make it a point to grab something to eat here while visiting!“

“We love all that Mainland has to offer! So much family fun, delicious food, and great atmosphere.“

“First time here this past Tuesday. The food was phenomenal. I took a friend from Brooklyn and she was very impressed also! We got the local oysters, New England clam chowder, Flounder picatta and the roasted chicken dish. All excellent!!“

“Love this place, but was very disappointed in the happy hour oysters on 7/9/25….. very small….. other than that, everything else was great“

“I must say I am very impressed with how well this restaurant handles themselves during busy times during the holidays. The wait was 2 hours but when I got in and ate the service was phenomenal and food came out quickly. Highly recommend this restaurant when heading down south.“

“I celebrated my birthday with my sisters at The Gables last night. It is clear that this restaurant knows that a dining experience is more than just about the great food. The ambiance and charm of the restaurant with its meticulous attention to detail translates to understated elegance. Their staff—my experience felt like we were the only ones in the restaurant and they had nothing else to do but take care of us! Our server, Cathy, was so warm and unshakable on a rather busy evening. The room managers strolled throughout the room making sure that every person was seen and noticed. It’s the nicest place I’ve ever dined. Thank you for a truly lovely evening!“

“You have to try the ranch fries they come with potato wedges but no get them with regular fries. To much potato with the wedges and takes the other flavors away with just potato. Food is amazing especially the scallops wrapped in bacon, and the seafood bisque. Been coming here for years and will continue with many more years.“

“Went for dinner. Food was very good. Pretty quick service. Out of season. Was a bit cold inside even though it was in the 60s outside and the front door was opened. The acoustics are bad. Kids screeching resonate through your ears and down your spine.
My dish was meant to have asparagus risotto, but it was white rice. 😣 Service was excellent.“

“I’ve been dying to try this place since seeing it featured on Triple D and it did not disappoint. Great atmosphere and the food was off the charts. Definitely try the snapper turtle soup. I also had the chipotle shrimp salad sandwich which is a home run.“

“Food and service very good“

“Had a great dinner, pistachio crusted halibut was one of the best pieces of fish I've ever had out at a restaurant , Ryan was an excellent server. Drinks alittle on the pricey side, but a great date night!!“

“Had a wonderful retirement party there on 06/07. Everything was perfect. From the table settings to the personalized menu. The servers were excellent and the food was outstanding and got rave reviews from our guests and family. Calloways has always been a favorite of mine and now has many more. Thank you to the owner and all your amazing staff. And I think you have a few more converts to your Paul Bunyan Bloody Mary’s. They were yummy.“

“Excellent food, excellent service“

“You've got to enjoy Thursday at Allen's Clam Bar. A 12-ounce broiled or fried lobster tail and 2 sides for $29.99 is just as amazing as Chef Craig's other creations. Great food, great service, and a fun time at Allen's will make your day.“

“Food is superb! Service is excellent! Very clean & nice atmosphere. I’ve never had a bad meal there!“

“Just a seriously good meal in a very friendly and comfortable spot. The chowder is not to be missed and my usually very picky 4 year old (seriously, sometimes he rejects pizza) absolutely loved the chicken finger kids platter.

We will absolutely be back!“

“Great food! Great pricing.! Staff is phenomenal! Always so pleasant ,attentive, and accommodating!! Love to Pardi Hardi w/Nardi's!“

“My wife said she though the California wrap was delicious. She has never said that before about take out food. My chicken tacos and the kids food, pizza and a hamburger was great. I thought it was a bit expensive, but not worried about that if they keep the quality as it was. Everyone ate everything. Fresh and not greasy. Good job.“

“Food was great!! Service was excellent!! We will be back! Thank you“

“Fun atmosphere, great desserts, wide variety. Highly recommended!“

“Best place to get a meal you want some wings from regular to medium to very spicy they got you covered whatever you want they have even though it’s just a buffalo wild wings go they literally have everything you would get at there real restaurant y’all should try it out“

“WOW! Truly what a great time at the Marlin!! The food was fantastic and the staff was even better!!!! The bar back, Evan, was such a nice person and worked super hard. The kitchen expo Mike was extremely helpful and answered our questions with the ut-most confidence. What a great establishment!!!! We will be back!!“

“We went out to breakfast early this morning. It was right around 7:15 am.whike walking into the restaurant, I immediately started laughing at the music that was playing. It was Rick James' . ..Give it me baby...When we were seated,I had to ask our server about it. She said it was I heart radio playing. The restaurant had a few customers because of the early hour. Honestly, I don't think anyone else even noticed. The food really was very good...all of it! The atmosphere was a little odd for that early in the morning though.“
