The best seafood restaurant in Wall BELMAR NJ the owner Vincent is a man that is dedicated to the business Love Greg
Food and services were great . Food tastes really great. Will have to come back and try shrimp salad!
Good stuff would recommend to any friend. The market is very neat and has a variety of fish to choose from. They also provide takeout and have healthy options.
We have been dining here for many years (in previous location next door too). We usually eat here about once a month between May and November (Winters in Florida). Great food at reasonable prices and large portions. Great service every time. Casual, cool ambiance. Not pretentious like some more expensive places, especially those located on water. A place locals know and love. Where we can bring our favorite wine and have delicious meals. Last evening, we dined here early. Dayana was our attentive and friendly server. We both decided to order seafood specials. The only problem was deciding which ones, the write up on each sounded delicious. Anyway, we had Monkfish Milanese, $32.99 and Halibut Componata $35.99. Both dinners very fresh fish, expertly prepared. We told Dayana to give our compliments to Chef Garcia. My previous review 8 years ago was 4 stars. Back then, I foolishly thought that a restaurant should be fancy, tablecloths, etc. to get 5 stars. Now, I realize that attitude is ridiculous and Mr. Shrimp definitely rates 5 stars.
Great food. Big portions too! I also love the different fries on the varying seafoods.
Cool place. Cool vibe. We went midday on a weekday so it was kind of dead. They had some cool lunch options. My coworker and I both got the fish and chips. They were pretty good. Not OMG I need to eat these everyday good. But they were solid. Service was good too.
Convenient for me, as that corridor is full of other spots I frequent often. Cheerful bright space, clean (as it should be), average pricing, above average quality. I have hosted a party of 14 once and they managed it well.
Good food, good service, even in the off season. I come here as often as I can with a friend of mine who lives in the area. It's become something of a tradition. The crab dip to start with is phenomenal, and it is also a fish market in the back. If buying and cooking fish isn't your thing, then the BYOB restaurant might be more of your thing. I love that the shore has places like this. We started off with the buffalo shrimp, the seafood risotto special, and the fried calamari. When a place also serves the tentacles is a good sign. Entrees were the surf and turf and the Alaskan King Crab dinner. I also recommend the clam pot dinner. Mangia! Buy some extra crab dip in the back on your way out. If you come during the summer season expect a wait, but it is worth it.
