“ This and Mud City next-door, their sister restaurant, are my go to spots to on my way home from AC. On my last visit, I wanted a little bit of a few things so I got a single crab cake, fried green tomatoes, and Jersey deviled eggs. Unfortunately, the crabcakes feel like they're getting smaller every time, I wouldn't mind paying more for the larger portion they used to give. I also find the FGT are cut too thick for my liking, but they are tasty. The deviled eggs are always amazing. ”
“ A local favorite of ours. LOVE the food here. Awesome experience. The appetizer was amazing with the fried oysters on top. Service is friendly and fast. Desserts were also plentiful and we brought them home to have later on in the evening. The restaurant itself gets very busy so I'd make a reservation or go early like we do. Bar was packed when we left. ”
“ Always a great time there We try to make it every trip down to LBI.. I love their mussels ”
“ Amazing seafood, but amazing all around food. Eaten here many times for both business & personal, and it hits all 5 stars every time. Only downside, no reservations. But it's worth the wait! ”
“ Best oysters on the Jersey Shore. Great happy hour prices. Even though the place is always busy, we have always been able to secure a High Top near the bar or seats at the bar. Service is always great. Very good cocktails and beer selection. ”
“ Great service & a very popular place! We shared the crabcake appetizer . We ordered the lobster tail and a filet mignon. Included a mushroom dish and brussels sprouts. Everything was absolutely magnificent and fresh.. so flavorful! Absolute heaven! Adorable, nostalgic beach, decor, and photos ! ”
“ The best part about this place was the service. Great and friendly people. Great vibe and hangout place for food or drinks. I had the pulled pork sandwich. It had a bbq taste to it which wasn't but I usually like mine more on the sweet end. My friends had the Rueben and forgot the other thing haha but it was lobster with fries. They both loved there meals. A bit pricey but would go again. ”
