    Delicious oysters
    Masumi T.

    This was my first trip to LBI, and I didn't always feel welcome everywhere we went--but this place was a huge exception. Despite having a very cranky 2-year-old with us, Kevin went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. I asked for fries first just to get something in my kid's belly. Then we took our time ordering the rest. While we waited, Kevin brought over buttons and toys to keep my son entertained. When I mentioned that he had seen a balloon earlier and really wanted one, Kevin blew up a kitchen glove for him. That kind of thoughtful, above-and-beyond service is rare. Truly phenomenal. The ambiance was relaxed and welcoming. Everyone, including the other customers, seemed chill and friendly. While they don't have a liquor license, I was able to enjoy a small bottle of rosé, which was perfect for our early Mother's Day celebration. Food-wise, we started with a dozen oysters, which were so good we ordered more. You can't go wrong with focaccia with burrata. The crab birria tacos were messy and I couldn't really taste the crab, but they were still tasty. All in all, a wonderful atmosphere with great food and even better people. I'd absolutely go out of my way to come back here.

    Got amazing lobster roll and mussels/langostinos takeout from this place and it was beyond delicious. The food was ready on time and perfectly packaged. The place looks cool to hang out in as well and can't wait to return.

    Mussels in garlic white wine sauce

    We have passed Dock and Claw over the years saying we've got to eat here, but never quite got to it. Well this year I was determined because I was wanting to try the Korean Duck wings. Well we finally made it and I'm so mad at myself for waiting so long. Yep, I got my Duck wings and they were amazing A sticky sweet bbq sauce that then catches you by surprise with some heat at the end. Delicious. My wife had the mussels in a garlic wine sauce. The mussels were plump and perfectly cooked. The garlic and white wine sauce was a garlic lovers dream. It comes with a wonderful bread slices to help you soak up that amazing broth. This is a busy tiny place, so come prepared to have a little wait. For us about 15 minutes. But the staff are very nice, food comes quickly, and the portions are plentiful. When I come back next July I will make sure Dock and Claw is on my have to go eat places.

    YUMMMMY Dock Burger and Lobster roll!

    Yummy lunch of shrimp cocktail, Dock Burger (best burger in LBI) and Lobster roll. Great place to come, especially on a cloudy day!

    We were told to use the QR code for the menu. I personally wanted steamed clams and that is why I was there. I also ordered the side of Mac and cheese. I originally wanted to get the fish tacos but was told it was too much food. Oh well- another meal in my future! They can sell wine but do not have a liquor license. The house white was not good. My friend got the clam chowder. I only tasted it but was very impressed with how flavorful it was. I got the clams and they did not disappoint. Lots of delicious broth and bread for dipping. The Mac and cheese was creamy too. Loved the French fries. Very casual eating outside.

    The Chicken or the Egg

    Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? It's all yours anytime of the day. We opted for breakfast (although they…read moreare known for their wings). The young man who was our server was very friendly and helpful. The decor was seaside diner. Ordered at our table...a large western style omelette, fluffy and full of the extras, a French Toast egg sandwich (clean plate club), a plate with a pancake, over easy eggs, home fries and toast, all cooked perfectly. I had the triple decker grilled cheese with bacon and tomato (I think it was called the Happy Waitress), so good, bacon perfect. Recommended!

    Stopped in at Chicken & Egg while in LBI with some friends. I ordered the Redneck Benedict, which…read moresounded like a fun twist on a classic, but it ended up being just okay. The flavors were a little bland and the chicken was cut too thick, which made it less enjoyable to eat. The home fries that came with it were also disappointing -- they seemed reheated rather than freshly made, and just didn't have that crisp, flavorful kick you hope for at a breakfast spot. My friends had different dishes, but their reactions were similar -- nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. We all left feeling like the food was a little underwhelming overall. The bathroom was serviceable but not especially clean, and while the service was fine, it wasn't anything that stood out as particularly attentive or warm. On the positive side, the decor was pleasant and gave the place a nice atmosphere. Honestly, that was probably the highlight of the experience for me. If Yelp allowed half-star ratings, I'd give it a 3.5 just for the vibe. All in all, Chicken & Egg isn't a bad place, but it didn't really impress. With so many options around, it's not somewhere I'd rush back to, but I wouldn't call it a total miss either -- more middle of the road.

    The Beach House Restaurant - pats pasta

    The Beach House Restaurant

    The beach house is a very nice restaurant in LBI. We have come a few times to eat here for dinner…read morefor the past few years. Our waitresses have always been very attentive and kind. The food comes out relatively quick, you get bread & butter and family style salad to eat while you wait. I do love their effort to include vegan entrees, and this is hard to come by! I always get the vegan Pat's pasta with beyond sausage - broccoli, sun dried tomatoes, garlic and oil, you really can't go wrong. It's always very good and they give you a good portion. My only "gripe" is that it's pricey. BUT you are in a pricey area! So that is kind of to be expected. Overall I'd say beach house is a solid option amongst many in the southern end of the island.

    We were really looking forward to visiting the Beach House but it was underwhelming. Their wine…read moreselection is limited, but I think you can bring your own stuff. The food is just okay, nothing to rave about. The calamari special app with kung pao sauce was our favorite. It tasted fresh and the sauce was delicious. The tuna special bites were also good. Our entrees were underwhelming. The swordfish special was overcooked and the side of rice had no flavor. The shrimp pasta was ok- the shrimp was good, buttery wine sauce was also good but the broccoli was mush and tasted like it was frozen. For the prices we expected more elevated meals, especially compared to other restaurants in the area. Everything was just ok, not what we expected from a seafood restaurant on the island. Our server was nice and checked on us an appropriate amount of times. The ambiance was also nice with the patio table and nice sunset behind us. We may give it another try for brunch but probably not worth visiting again for dinner.
