    Mel M.

    BELMAR: we are so excited that Anchor Tavern now welcomes leashed, friendly pups on their outdoor patio! It is the perfect spot to relax with great food, refreshing drinks, and your furry friend by your side. Dogs are welcome at the tables along the fence and should stay near the fence for everyone's safety, since this is a popular restaurant. With an eclectic menu, lively vibes, and a prime downtown location, it is a great place to enjoy a meal out with your pup!

    French onion soup - delicious!

    After lunch, we stopped at Beach House Brewery for a beer, and I'm so glad we did! It was a very…read morebusy brewery with a fun, lively atmosphere. We grabbed seats at the bar and each had one beer. I had the Mermaid Tears IPA and absolutely loved it! ‍ It was flavorful, delicious, and definitely my kind of IPA. My husband had the Rose Tattoo, which he really liked--but he liked my beer better! I definitely recommend stopping at Beach House Brewery if you're in the area. Great atmosphere, good beer, and a fun place to hang out!

    The Beach Haus Brewery appeared to have rave reviews and a dedicated following, so it definitely…read moreseemed like a place that we would want to explore since we were in the neighborhood. When we arrived at the three-story space, we immediately headed up to the rooftop first. The top floor was open to the elements and overlooked a strip mall just below, but with a further gaze, we were able to see the Shark River. There was a bar and a few tables, as well as a lounge area with couches and cushioned armchairs, which we were thankfully able to snag. The layout was fun and allowed us to converse with other patrons sitting across the coffee table from us. The one thing I did not love about the roof, however, was that it functioned as almost an entirely different venue. Meaning that they had only a few small plates for food options and very few beers on tap. They did not even offer flights, but focused mainly on cocktails. Fine, I had a mixed drink with mezcal, Aperol, and watermelon, which was an excellent smoky and sweet margarita, but I had wanted to sample their beers since it was a brewery. After our initial round of drinks, we decided to head down to the second floor, rustic taproom to sample more of their menu. The place was packed with diners, but, since we did not have a reservation, we were nervous that we would not receive a table. Thankfully, two seats opened at the bar, so we grabbed those. Unfortunately, by that point, I did not want to drink anymore, so I did not get to try their beers (except a sip of the Swell, which was a bit too hoppy of a hazy IPA for my liking), but I was hungry enough to get a dinner entree. The friendly bartender took our order and ensured all of our customizations were noted, but the food still wound up awful. I had selected the Tzatziki Salmon with the yogurt sauce on the side. The fish was cooked well, but way too heavily salted. It was served with orzo that was overcooked, dry, bland, and stuck together in clumps. I was shocked they even served something that looked so unappetizing. There were also a bunch of roasted brussels sprouts that had a funny flavor and appeared to have been previously frozen. Then, when I thought it could not get any worse, the tzatziki seemed curdled, so I was glad that I had ordered it on the side. My partner's burger came with a single piece of bacon that was all fat and not even remotely crispy. While the food was terrible, the service was nice, and I really enjoyed my cocktail and the vibe at the Beach Haus Brewery, so I decided to give it 3 stars, but I am clearly being generous.

Like nachos but they use kettle chips rather than tortilla chips. A baked Reuben dip (a special)--so cheesy and savory! A soft baked pretzel--perfect for sharing. Came with a spicy mustard! Then came the real Irish classics -- Irish sausage rolls--thick sausage wrapped in a pastry, a great comfort snack. Shepherds pie--a mix of ground beef and lamb. This was savory and perfect for a cold March day! Fish and chips--the BIGGEST fish ever and it was so light and battered well. And if you're a sandwich person, you have to try The Rail Bender which was a huge sandwich with mouthwatering beef brisket, and came with a savory au jus for dipping. For drinks, we went full Irish with their St. Paddy's day specials: Irish Lucky Charm, Irish Maid, and a Jameson Orange Creamsicle that tasted like dessert. If you're looking for the perfect spot to celebrate St. Patrick's Day all year round, this place absolutely delivers. The service was warm and friendly and was a welcoming place in Spring Lake!

The brioche bun was nothing special. The bun in the picture on the menu looks so much nicer. The one I got was Undercooked and should've been toasted. Apparently you can only get the french fries on the dinner menu. My wife got the chicken salad wrap and I thought that was good. Nice crispy bacon inside. The brownie was good for dessert not necessarily worth eight dollars Overall, we were happy, probably would not go back

    Visited Cave Bistro off the recommendation of a friend, and also DDD (iykyk)…read more I've frequented many DDD Restaurant's in the past, and they always seem to be very crowded. So just to be safe, I did make a reservation right when the restaurant opened. Seems to say I played it a bit too safe, I was the only one i there for the first 20-min.! In any case, then dining area was very bright and open, and I was seated near the window, which I enjoyed. I tried three foods, appetizer-entree-dessert, here's the breakdown: 1) Appetizer: Pan Roasted Achiote Octopus ($22) which has Shaved Pickled Carrots & Onions, Chermoula. For 1 person, this was quite substantial and a delicious start to the meal. The octopus wasn't tough, it was cooked perfectly, with a nice char-grilled flavour. Paired up with the accoutrements, it was a 10/10 way to begin my meal! 2) Entree: Grass-Fed Beef-Roasted Marrow Burger ($26) which has Raclette Cheese, Caramelized Onion-Tomato Jam, Fresh Baked Gluten Free Brioche Bun, & Beef Tallow Fries. Why 4-stars? Because of this item. The day I arrived the restaurant was trying their new "Baked Gluten-Free Brioche" on me, apparently I was one of the first --- the bread was dry AF, lol! I loved the burger --- the marrow taste, the raclette cheese --- I sing their praises, but wrong day to test out the "test bread"! It ended up on a Yelp Review. Hopefully the bread-recipe has been improved on after this review. PS: The onion-tomato jam perfectly pairs with the richness of the marrow burger. 3) Lastly, I ordered for dessert the bread pudding. They don't put their desserts on the menu, but if you ask the server they will let you know what the restaurant has for the day. I believe it's seasonal as well. It was average at best, good ---- but didn't stand-out. Overall, I'd totally recommend a stop-by if you're in the area! It's always awesome visiting these sites features on DDD, and tasting for yourself the hype behind their food!
