Visited here after a day on the boardwalk in Point Pleasant. Our waitress Kelsy was very friendly and attentive. Started with Spicy Garlic Shrimp , wife had Lobster Bisque. Then I had the Stuffed Shrimp while my wife opted for the Flounder Francaise with Colossal Crab. Food was amazing! The view of the boats docked nearby was nice.

Food was good, just don’t get a steak. I ordered a medium filet mignon and got a well done literally STEAMED FILLET, had a bite and couldn’t finish(just had the mashed potatoes and broccoli it came with), it’s the worst I’ve ever had and I’ve had burnt steak before lol. Other than than, it was an okay experience, wouldn’t come back tho.

14 oz Ribeye steak on delicious potatoes with lobster on top. All was good but the lobster needed some flavor. Service by Danielle was excellent.

The service was good, the view is very nice. The food, however, was not good, especially for what you pay. 5 of us had different dishes, but we all basically said the same thing. It was bland, overcooked, and dry. I had king crab legs, which were overcooked, dry, and even with the butter on the side, it wasn’t flavorful at all; sesame tuna same; Snow crab legs same; broiled seafood platter same; apricot chicken was a bit more flavorful with the apricot sauce but still overcooked and dry. Lobster bisque was ok as well as key lime pie. It’s unfortunate that such a nice-looking location with an awesome view would have food that is sub-par. We were disappointed.

We had the shrimp cocktail and the broiled seafood with Manhattan clam chowder. Everything was delicious. Corn fritters were really good too. The waitress was excellent. She was extremely attentive and very eager to be sure we were happy. Will definitely return.

Had dinner here week before Memorial Day with wife and two kids home for summer from college. Made reservation for 6, but plenty of seating available when we arrived. Vincent was server and he was new, I believe, but we wouldn’t have known if he hadn’t mentioned it. Meaning, he was an excellent server and was very attentive. Atmosphere was great, food was even better (although a smaller extractor fork would have come in handy to pull the meat from lobster claws). Desserts were outstanding. Vincent made this a super experience for us all.

Went to Happy Hour in the bar. Sat at hightop. Ordered house wine charged one house and the other full price. Ordered oysters and spicy shrimp. Would have liked to order soups, however, the bartender not only never came back but actually looked down when I went over to bar. She attempted to speak to the person at the next chair, who pointed to me, to make her look. What awful service. No idea what was wrong but we won’t go there any more. YUK.
