Based on happy hour only. Last summer I had walked by while a band was playing outside and thought…read moreI have to come back and check this young band out. Well took me a good year but finally got there. A hot Wednesday night. The band was setup inside due to impending storm. The place was not busy, not sure why. Maybe early? Anyway sat at the bar. Maybe there were 3 other folks there, a group of 4 or 5 sat at small tables by the band with their cute dog, great to see a dog friendly place like this (inside and outside). They have a great happy hour menu. Very good options. The band was very enjoyable (Duke Hill). Will definitely be back for more happy hours.

There were lots of beachgoers, but nobody in the water. The hostess was so welcoming and nice. Our waiter was attentive. We split a beet salad! Perfection and tasty. Fresh and so fine!

Service was quick and good, we start with the charcuterie board(too small for the price) and after we got Duck a la orange, Steak Frites, beef Bourguignon all of them were great .

There was no one at the host stand and no sign indicating "please wait to be seated". Eventually someone sat us. About a half hour later Mrs P had to pull aside a man acting as if he was the lead to have someone take our order. That took another 20 minutes. The kitchen took equally long to get food out. No doubt as woefully understaffed as the dinning room. I and Daughter P ordered fish and chips which the menu clarified was fried cod and French fries. Instead it came with chips. That's crisps to you and me, Rusty. They tasted exactly like Terra Vegetable Chips found in the supermarket. Dead match. And they were dead stale. Daughter2 P's mozzarella sticks were so late that I nearly thought they would arrive for the next meal. Our water was never refilled despite several requests. One was placed with the would be lead. This jerk turned to near by bus boy, snapped his fingers and motioned for him to get it. I dislike bad leaders. Particularly when they end up covering my table. We should have left during the interminable time it took to order. I implored Mrs P to leave a negative tip for the full amount and then pay the bill plus 5% just to make a point. But the lead would not understand the message. Or even see it with his head so far inside his sphincter

Listen to the reviews... this place should not be in business…read more We made a reservation for 12/30 at 8:15pm for 4 people including a toddler. When we get there, Nashon, the guy who claimed he was in charge for the night stated that since they were getting ready for NYE, we had to choose from two table options. Wait for it... a bar table or a booth that could seat 2 people. I had to go back and forth with him to tell him that wasn't going to work and we needed a table to fit four people. He says "it's going to take a while", because they were setting up for NYE; mind you, setting up for NYE was forks + knives on the table. ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS REMOVE THEM OFF THE TABLE. Eventually after me complaining, he sat us at an appropriate table. Then we get the food and guess what... there's a hair in my husbands burger. At this point, we wanted to speak to someone in charge to get our frustrations across and we ended up meeting Nashon again who we had to go back and forth with for about five minutes. Not once in this five minutes did we get a god damn apology. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! EAT SOMEWHERE ELSE!

I will chalk it up to being "busy," although I have never been there when the restaurant was full. The number 1 draw is the view.

The venue is beautiful, located right on the beach. Public paid parking is available all around. The staff was very attentive during the entire reception. The cocktail hour offered some appetizer stations and white glove service apps. Though I wish they had more of a variety. The dinner served was good, but the salmon was covered in too much sauce for me. My husband enjoyed the filet mignon. Desserts were served on two platters per table along with a slice of wedding cake, coffee and tea. I would like to return to dine at their restaurant.

Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed inside their posh space and at the outdoor patio in front of the building. Just one rule inside: do not put a water bowl on the floor.

Open every day starting at 3pm for drinks and the kitchen opens at 4pm for food. Happy Hour is Monday-Friday from 3-6pm. Check their website for other specials and events! We love grooving to the DJ they have on Sundays in-season.

Official "Benny" here - so take my review with a grain of salt…read more (Us Northerners are a shady bunch!) We came here the summer before, loved it. Came this summer and... liked it. (The honeymoon is over, I fear.) The menu is eclectic - pizza to sandwiches to seafood to an impressive list of beers, cocktails and mocktails. The pricing is a bit too high but what else would you expect in the heart of the boardwalk, right at the main 'corner' where countless people are constantly walking past? The servers on both visits were superb. The restaurant definitely has a cool look all around... outdoor seating, a large bar inside, plenty of tables and a cool 'snug corner' that has a lounge/library vibe to it. (Weirdly enough on both visits they gave us the exact same high-top even though there was plenty of seating in all the other corners of the joint.) For every hit (the BLT sandwich) there was a "it was okay, I don't think I'd get that again" (fish tacos) and for almost $20 to hear, "the crust reminded me of Ellio's frozen pizza" was deflating. (Next summer? We might see what else Long Branch has to offer...)

I was highly upset with the service provided here at the end of my Baby shower. I have paid this venue almost or more than $4,000 to rent here. We had to take HAD to take our own garbage out and then gave us a problem about where we placed the garbage when we weren't provided CLEAR instruction on where to put the garbage. NO once said theres a specific bin to put the garbage in. Nothing is labeled outside that says 10PRL only. Both of the garbage bins outside the venue say MAZZA. Then they threatened us that we would be fined because we put the garbage in the wrong bin with NO CLEAR instructions, until we are ALL in our cars about to leave the venue. Long story short, DO NOT BOOK HERE. Then the day before our event because we had extra people they told us we had to pay an extra $750 and saying we have to pay by 3pm like we weren't going to pay them. If my baby shower wasn't yesterday , I would've canceled the venue and moved it to another place where my money would've been appreciated. Also it is not handicapped accessible. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME with this place it is A COMPLETE RIP OFF !!!
