Joe’s Crab Shack can’t compare! We were originally going to go to Joe’s but then I came across this place. The portions are incredible! It is a lot of food and I think the prices are great! More than one person can feast on a combo! The bar is really good and you don’t get watered down over priced drinks. Menu selection is excellent and everyone should find something they can enjoy. We had a hard time choosing. Believe it or not the dessert was good too! The place is clean and the atmosphere was nice and mellow with everyone enjoying the company they were with. Our waitress was very attentive and patient as this was our first time she carefully explained everything to us and gave us time to decide. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for great seafood and a nice night out. Parking can be tricky as the lot is shared with nearby businesses and this place is busy!

Love this place. Honestly, I used to travel to city island from central nj for seafood. Not anymore. It’s not on the water but the vibes, the food and the staff are great. This has become a hidden gem in NJ. I enjoyed everything with the exception of the fried scallops. Those are not as good but the fried shrimp, fried fish, seafood rice, sweet potato fries, garlic noodle, seafood soup and steamed crab legs and shrimp are good. Give it a shot!

Customer service was nice and fast. The food was delicious. Our server answer all the questions I have about the menu, and was able to describe the level of spicy on the sauces. The spicy island combo sauce is really, at first you don’t feel it in your tongue but then it kicks you and your ears are now burning and itching lol. A most go definitely.

The food was absolutely amazing!! I really enjoyed the seafood fried rice and the shrimp in garlic sauce. I also tried the Dungeness crabs in Island sauce (not pictured) and it was okay. The service was also great! We were seated very quickly and I like that they’re open late!

A friend of my wife suggested this place. We drove pass here a million times never even knew this place was there. We came on a Monday evening was seated immediately not to many patrons were there the server came right over placed or order. All I can say is I was pleasantly surprised. Food was absolutely amazing! My wife who’s sort of a picky eater love it so much that she suggested we eat here every Monday now! Keep up the great work see you again soon.

Went to this place for dinner on a Saturday night. The place really got a good partly vibe. I tried their popular seafood items. All food were good. I would say better than I expected. Specially, they have good seafood fried rice. The place located on a popular street on main ave and got parking in front and on the street. I would recommend this place if any one has apatite for seafood.
