This place was AMAZING! I never came here before they renovated, but the interior is so beautiful and well thought out, so great job to them! The environment, the staff, the FOOD! Absolutely no notes.
We had a variety of amazing apps (not pictured). Started with the tuna tartar, meatballs (10/10 wish I had a second order of them), and the garlic bread sticks. Everything was cooked so well, while presentation was just as great.
Next the dinner. We had a steak, the pork shank, a salad, and a surf and turf (off menu) that was a full steak with clam stuffed shrimp. Steaks were perfectly medium rare and tender, the pork shank was so tender it was falling off the bone (in the best way), and even the simple salad was fresh and tasty.
Now the dessert. Everything is made by either the head chef, the soup chef, or the waitress. Each one is better than the next. Personal favorite: the dark chocolate cake. My girlfriend, who hates coconut, tried the coconut cream pie and said "wow. I might like coconut now". Her personal favorite is the bread pudding bites.
After dinner we sat at the bar and had a couple drinks while chatting with the bartender, who is so attentive and friendly! Lots of regulars and locals here, but it's part of what made the whole evening so lovely! We will DEFINITELY be back!

An absolutely amazing experience! The food was excellent and the portions were great for the price. Everything was beyond what we could have expected! Shoutout to the bread you get at the start, it was very tasty.
Kim, our server, was a delight!

The food here is great,The Bartender could observe just a tad more attention to new faces as opposed to waiting hand and foot on the regular crowd,the place is beautiful.

We wanted to stop in since it had recently opened after it had changed hands and undergone a renovation. It is beautiful inside and out. The service was friendly and the food was good. Even though it was early on a Thursday, the dining room filled up with locals. The menu had a nice selection and there were several specials.
Parking: There is plenty of free parking.
Wheelchair accessibility: There was a ramp in the front.

Once again not disappointed. Heading down to Bayville this weekend for birthday dinner. Can’t go wrong. Forget the no so positive reviews. Twin Jarbors is the best in B town.
Went for a date night 7:30 on a Sunday knowing restaurants are now eligible to stay open til 11pm. Walked in, saw few patrons at the bar and no one in dining area. We thought to eat at the bar, but while we waited to be seated we were yelled at by what we thought was a tipsy patron yelling, "we're closed!". We waited until the bartender appeared since nothing else was said and he informed us that it was the owner yelling they were closed! Zero conversation. Zero apologies. RUDEST THING EVER! And we'd eaten there plenty of times for over 30 years!!!

Food has been usually very good, but on my last visit portions was small ,had sole francese, and fries. Hope this is not sign of things to come.
Atmosphere was very friendly, staff very accommodating. The food was fresh and prepared beautifully.
Eight of us went to Twin Harbors for a family birthday dinner. The first thing we all noticed when we walked in was the air conditioning is woefully inadequate. It was so warm inside, we thought the A/C was set to "Fan". Parking outside can be difficult. The decor inside consists of old dark wood paneling. Definitely dated. When my wife called to make the reservation, she asked about the view and was told the restaurant is "on the water". Not true! There is no view. The main window faces the street and the side windows were draped closed. Another restaurant sits between them and the water. As for the food, it was OK, but not great. The Fisherman's Platter I had consisted of 2 shrimps, 3 scallops, a thin fish fillet, and 3 rubbery clam pieces without shells. Just OK; not great, not amazing, not fantastic, and definitely NOT "The Best seafood in Bayville". The crowd at the bar was rather loud, but when we asked to be moved to a quieter table away from the bar, our request was ignored ...twice! We had to ask multiple times for our water glasses to be refilled. At better restaurants, it's done automatically without having to ask. For all these reasons, Twin Harbors gets just 3 stars (Average).
Based on the excellent reviews, we went. Food was just okay, and the atmosphere was dark and old...needs a renovation. Almost like we went to a different restaurant based on other folks' reviews. Can't always believe what you read, I guess.
Good if you only want seafood. Early Saturday evening they were out of rice and blue cheese dressing. Disappointing.
