After waiting more than ten minutes for someone to return, our server finally appeared--not with what we needed, but with the check.

The menu speaks for itself but the specials are always amazing. For appetizers we had their famous meatballs and mussels oreganata. Both phenomenal and having the large mussels prepared this way was a home-run. Wife got the Pasta Nicolo with shrimp spinach tomato spaghetti in a blush sauce and I opted for their take on Surf and Turf. Sorry no pic of pasta, the wife was very hungry lol. Aged NY Strip, sautéed broccoli rabe and fried potatoes with 3 shrimp oreganata and a lobster tail. Magnificent meal. A must try while dts and a byob establishment as well. Pete and Nicole thank you for another amazing evening.

Wifey and I saw this place yesterday and decided to give them a try. We showed up about 5:40 and…read morewere seated right away. The hostess sat us in the bar area, which was fine, but seemed an odd choice. Our waitress came over for a drink order before I had even picked up the menu. My wife quickly ordered the Ginger Minty Paloma and I had an Old Fashioned. Wifey's drink was amazing and tasted like 14 more. Mine was just ok, but when you drink them fairly regularly there's not much you can do to make them 'different.' We decided to just split our food. We ordered a Wedge Salad - they put a balsamic glaze on it and it was REALLY GOOD. This came very quickly. We split The Rocco Pizza - vodka sauce, cheese and pieces of fried chicken cutlet. Unfortunately, this was a miss for us. The taste was fine, but neither of us liked the crust and wasn't hot enough. Didn't seem like your normal 'brick oven pizza.' We also split a 'small plate' of linguini and clams. This was just ok as well. The fresh clams were great, but the others were pretty chewy. The whole plate also needed salt. Service was pleasant and fairly quick, but the food was overall just ok. The place itself looked like it would be pretty fun if I was in my 20s. There was a band setting up and I bet the place gets pretty loud.

The crowd was mostly over 60 which is nice since no kids were there but I'm 45 and it wasn't as lively as I would have liked. The bands playing were good too but the atmosphere felt a little flat. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable either. Not my cup of tea for hanging out but I'd go back for dinner.

We were pleasantly surprised to find Klee's Bar and Grill open. We were seated and our waitress was very friendly and helpful. She brought our drinks and took our food order. I ordered a Ruben sandwich with fries and a cup of chili. While we waited there was live music being played by a one man band from behind the bar. He was entertaining playing classic rock and not to loud that you couldn't talk. Our food came quickly and was very delicious. My sandwich was served open faced and piled with meat. The fires were hot and fresh. I was also impressed with the hostess who was cleaning tables. She really wiped them down good with disinfectant spray and then wiped the chairs as well. There is nothing bad I can say about this place and would highly recommend it.

Our bartender was excellent and after hearing I was vegetarian, she recommended the eggplant sandwich. The eggplant is thin and perfectly crisp. I low key wish this was an eggplant parm or dressed with some type of sauce, but it's delicious on its own. Last night we went Klee's and the food was good but the service was exceptional. Our waitress was extremely attentive. I got the eggplant sandwich with fries which I almost forgot about (I don't know how). Their fries are crisp and incredible. My mom got the meatloaf and instead of mashed potatoes got fries. Instead of broccoli, she got green beans. The portions were huge and she was very happy with the substitutions. We also got dessert which we regret not sharing because their portions were huge. She got the chocolate peanut butter pie and I got the apple crisp. The apple crisp was stacked. Both were good! Next time we will definitely split dessert because we were stuffed. I highly recommend checking this spot out. Oh if you are in the mood for lighter food, their nutty pear salad is so refreshing and yummy! I will definitely be back!

Was grateful we found this place as it had a huge rooftop dining area over looking the beach. Very scenic! However, there was hardly any service provided. We had to put the tables together ourselves. Tables weren't clean. We had to find a server as they were huddled around the bar for a while. Ordered food that took a while to arrive, in piece meal, and even missed my kid's meal who was waiting for so long just to realize they somehow missed her order. This wasn't acceptable as it wasn't even a busy night. :( On top of that, our pitcher of water was empty so someone threw scrap straw wrapping in there. When asked for more water, the server just refilled the water without noticing the garbage. Food was pretty decent, sushi rolls were good and my seafood pasta w/red sauce was good. It truly was the lack of attentiveness staff that brought the rating down.

Best Bar in Seaside by Far…read more It's a bar, it's open early (7am), it's dimly lit, drinks are reasonably priced, and strong. This is a goto in Seaside. It is open late all season long.

Serving any customer after 1 am if consumers aren't able to finish the drink that they paid and tipped for is insane. If you want to be out by 2, then maybe the time of closing shouldn't be 2:00. Bouncer snatched drinks directly out of myself and my friend's hands. Every employee was extremely rude when telling us we had to leave. Each and every one of them had crazy attitude saying they had every right to close when they wanted to. That is okay, but don't say you have a last call if it's instead warning to get out. Bouncer was a mess as well. The bouncer was most likely the most unprofessional person I've ever encountered.
