We ate there last night. I ordered a Vermont IPA and the waitress brought a dirty glass , my wife ordered unsweetened iced tea and she didn't bring sugar or Splenda and then when she asked for it she still never brought it. The short rib panini was good though a bit dry , and you can get onion rings instead of fries for an up charge, actually I don't think I've ever had worse onion rings in my life. We also ordered the pork chop it was supposed to have and fig balsamic glaze neither of which was on it . The manager came to ask how everything was and we have no silverware for about five minutes and then she sort of made it the 18-year-old waitress look like it was her fault meanwhile I think it was lack of management. . The manager never checked again to see how everything was . If you want a pretty place go here if your looking for great food or service not so much read more

I have zero complaints. This places was busy beyond belief but the staff was amazing and nothing but welcoming. The bartender (forgot him name) was awesome with recommendations and very friendly. I went with my boyfriend to dinner and a staff member accidentally bumped into me and spilled my drink. The manger came up to us several minutes later and apologized with a free round of drinks. Before we were able to get the free round, our table was ready. The manager recognized us even in the big crowd and then offered us free desserts of our choosing. The food was delicious, highly recommend the scallops! If I could give them more stars I would! read more

This restaurant has a wonderful vibe. It's very calm and quiet and intimate. The menu is perfect for the beach surrounding. The olive oil has special rosemary in it and it's pretty looking but tastes bland. There are cute pillows on the chairs, 10/10 would recommend. The view is very okay, the parking was satisfactory, waitresses are nice and comedic. I'm going to assume the food is good until I try it. I'll get back to y'all about that. I'm back and the food was immaculate. Would come back again. read more

Went to Half Moon Point last Friday evening. First thing we noticed was the sound level inside. VERY noisy. Owners need to work on some sound deadening features. We were able to be seated outside on deck. Nicely appointed, however the seat backs on the chairs are canted too far backwards, making it difficult to sit up and eat. Food; Brussels sprouts were outstanding, oysters on half also a good choice. Ahi tuna tacos were good and three were served. Cali. burger salad would have been better if burger was med. rare as ordered vs. med. well as served. Service; was ok given they are still working bugs out. Overall Half Moon will be a great joint for locals for a casual burger and drinks. Not so much for a nice dinner out. read more

I'm gonna keep this simple. I've been to Half Moon Point three times, each time the same experience. Friendly and attentive staff, interior clean and very pleasing looking but the bottom line, every time we ordered a diverse array of items from the menu all the food was under seasoned, overcook, or over salted but most importantly the quality of the food itself was just inferior. Most items , including the seafood, was from a frozen food source and that's just plain old wrong when your location is the Jersey Shore ( with a fresh fish market less that a quarter mile down the road). Simply put......not worth the money at all!!! Sorry, I wanted to like it, but I just don't! read more

Very pretty place, everything clean and crisp. Food was great. Got the buffalo chicken dip, sweet potato soup (amazing) and crab cake sandwich. My son had a burger and the outside was charred and it was so delicious I wish I had ordered that too! Will definitely come back!! read more

Disappointing service and disappointing food. Service involved having to ask several times for items. We asked twice for bread after every other table appeared to have theirs. The 2 in our party who had soup had to ask for spoons. The one who had steak had to ask for a steak knife. One family member had to ask 3 different staff members for another beer. Re the food the fried Brussel sprouts were delicious. The soups were lukewarm and really should have been sent back. The crab cakes were cool. They were big but there was little lump crab in there. The medium rare steak was like leather. It's a nice clean restaurant with a good range of foods. However if you're looking for good food with good service you'll probably be a little disappointed like we were. read more

It's great for brunch. Lovely views, would recommend for the venue alone and the food is good as well

I thought the food was great! Others in my group weren't as fond. I grabbed the Pork Chop and it was AMAZING!!! Ambience is a little loud, both upstairs and downstairs, but definitely worth a trip to this restaurant. read more

Our party of 6 ate there on a Monday afternoon. The food came out one plate at a time. The kids food came out last and one meal didn't arrive until we told them that one was missing! When it arrived it was burnt beyond recognition. Not sure we'd ever go back read more

Excellent atmosphere, food, and service. The seafood is fresh, the entrees full of flavor, and the desserts delectable. I highly recommend for any date, family gathering, or other special event! read more

I was very surprised the 1st time up to the 5th time being here, I used to work in a restaurant when I was younger and now when I go out I tend to be less criticial and its not needed here, yes its busy at times but they do their best to get you seated, food is always awesome, try the calamari its cut and battered right there, drinks outstanding just about everything here is outstanding read more

Very noise in bar area, can't even hear to give your name for a table to wait- waited over 30 min for a table! Rude hostess! read more

Half Moon Point - Seafood Near Me - Point Pleasant, New Jersey

My husband and I have been here several times now. Each time we have had different complaints mostly about the quality of food and the service. One time we went and our lobster eggs Benedict came out without the eggs and a small piece of lobster. The tuna bites are small and overpriced. They do make a pretty good Manhattan so if your just looking for cocktails it's ok. I wish the had more local beer like Frye. read more

Clean, frendly loud atmosphere. Great for large groups because the noise level. I went with 12 people and we all loved our food. We are from North Jersey NYC area where we tend to be food snobs and I thought this place on on par with some of my favorites up north. They did an excellent job designing and decorating the place (top notch). Our waitress could have been a bit friendlier but that didn't take away from the excellent food. Pork belly appetizer is a must! Enjoy! read more

We could have gone anywhere this weekend and came back twice! Go up to the 2nd floor bar- Make sure Mitchell is working he'll take great care of you... I love getting old school customer service from people. Though young this guy was fantastic and even gave us soem great ideas on the menu! This place has it all when it comes to dining. The filet's were awesome then the 2nd night the tuna was prepared perfectly. I know it's not on the water, which I think you overpay for but if you need that have early cocktail somewhere then head over here for dinner YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

I really wanted to like this place. It's very loud and a bit stark. The drinks were very good. Had the truffle risotto and the flavor was good but the rice wasn't cooked through. We ordered 4 burgers and they were all cooked well to burnt. We ordered the medium to medium rare. Very disappointing. read more

Average food. Loud dining area. Lively bar area. My scallops...chewy and one was even a bit "fishy" so returned to the kitchen for replacement. Second try the first two were perfect and the third one was again chewy. My husband's beef was a bit over cooked. Caesar salad was good. Cheesecake was delish. read more

Delicious food great service! Bobby the Bartender makes awesome martinis! Love the decor. It's bright n pretty here. Must try!

Came here around dinner time on Sunday, got seated right away. Excellent service and the food was perfect. Have to get scallops when you come here. read more

We were at lunch today. 18 ladies seated upstairs. Our waitress was Sandy. Sandy was great. All our meals were served at the same time. No one had a complaint. I recommend the chicken BLT salad. read more

Very good. Walked there. Need to go a few more times. Very close to home. Had Lobster grilled cheese with Tomato Bisque soup. Really good. Great Beer selection! read more

Visited this restaurant recently with friends and had a lovely evening. Very nice atmosphere and top notch food. It is a little loud due to the large, open dining area, but it didn't detract from our experience. Will visit again! read more

So happy to have another new good eatery located in the Bay Head/PPB area We went practically the 2nd week they were opened. We had 6 people and had made reservations and we were seated immediately. It was crowded and noisy but we expected that since there is a large bar. But we love it that way. Our waitress was very accommodating and answered a few questions for us regarding the menu. Food was very good and there were many options to choose from. read more

Cute restaurant and ambiance. Bar area, high tops and regular tables. Super friendly and attentive waiter. Quality food, especially the popular lobster grilled cheese and smoky tomato soup. Variety of menu choices. Takes reservations, although they weren't needed on a Saturday afternoon. read more

My boyfriend and I were pleasantly surprised last night by this place for our first time there. We walked in last night and it was crowded by the bar and no hostess so i was already like let's go somewhere else.. but then we walked up stairs and sat at the bar there and had a great experience! Our bartender Maureen was the sweetest person and gave us great recommendations on what to order which was the prime rib panini which was awesome. We had a great conversation. We need more bartenders/server like Maureen. We will be back! read more

Excellent Sushi so delicious great burgers ... love the atmosphere .. just wish they had blue cheese lol Wing without blue cheese wings are good but need this Hopefully in the future they ad this to the menu. Love the atmosphere Servers are always nice . read more

Salmon first time arrived well done and dried out, second time raw, didn't wait for a 3rd time. Fried chicken, thick breading and crisp but no flavor. No clue why this place gets more than 2 stars. App special was terrible, mac n cheese that came w/chicken was really bad no cheese not creamy just bad. read more

Loved it here! We were thinking it wouldn't be that great since it's so new, but we were wrong. Great wings! Best we have had in awhile. Amazing white sangria! Loved our Greek wrap and Cobb salad. Desserts were to die for too. We got the chocolate bomb. We will definitely be going back! read more

Polite staff and this is the best restaurant in the Point Pleasant area. We ordered several entrees and we were not disappointed. Kudos to the kitchen staff for a great job! read more

My husband and I really enjoy coming here for lunch. I love the Caesar Salad with blackened shrimp. We just shared the mac and cheese with short ribs. AMAZING! Couldn't stop saying how good it was as we were eating. My son loves the Pork Belly appetizer. Shrimp cocktail is also wonderful. The bar tenders have always been personable and fun. The outside space is fun too, although those chairs really need to be replaced as they aren't comfortable. You can't really lean back because the backs are tilted in an odd way. Other than that the dirty martinis are always good, decent wine choices too. New beers are always on the menu. All in all one of our favorite spots. UPDATE just reduced to 3 stars. Lunch on Saturday ordered a Caesar salad. When the salad came out it was lacking in lettuce. Like a side salad amount of lettuce. I had to send it back to ask for more lettuce because this is a main course salad. If you're skimping on lettuce that's a bad sign.The shrimp were not hot as if they were sitting around. So they had to remake the salad. Went there again today (Sunday) for lunch and had the same salad. Same amount of skimpy lettuce hardly any on the plate and the shrimp were mediocre, as if they sat in the window a long time. It took forever to get our lunch, there were four people in our party. Every time someone left, the front door slammed so hard we all jumped out of our seats. Terrible. The door needs to be corrected. The waiter was smug and arrogant. When we told him we would need separate checks he looked at my husband like "so what I could care less". Very odd. Normally the wait staff is very kind and professional. Slowly becoming one of our less favorite spots. Maybe there's just a glitch and this is not going to be a continuous problem with the food and the door noise and the attitude. read more

Service was sub-par, and the place wasn't even crowded! I ordered the Quinoa salad, and it was okay, nothing memorable. My husband enjoyed his turkey sandwich, and the rest of our party seemed to enjoy their lunches as well. I can understand the complaints about the noise level. read more

Just keeps missing and three strikes your out. We were seated in front room along back wall underneath very bright high hat lights. Had a great waiter and asked if they could be possibly dimmed. He said absolutely, but had to check with manger (who we never saw). When he came back to take our order said manager would not dim the lights. Strike 1. He then informed us they were completely out of the Prime Rib special (it was only 6:30PM). He said Monday is the special night and they always run out early. Strike 2. After we decided on different entrees, the food runners brought out the salads we had ordered, and the entrees at the same time. I asked why they didn't bring the salads first, and of course they had no idea. Strike 3. Really want to try and like this place, but consistently misses the mark. read more

I'm surprised by all the negative reviews. My wife and kids have been here about a dozen times with only one issue ( two overcooked filets which were immediately replaced)and then we were comped dessert. We have had a variety of good meals and the staff is always accommodating to our at times unruly children. read more

The food came at a perfect sequence with the correct interval of time between apps and the entree. Our waitress was fantastic and was very kind. I highly recommend the cross country chicken savoy. Hope you enjoy. read more

Stopped in for lunch here for the first time. I had the salad topped with a burger and it was great, the burger done perfectly, med rare. I'm eating low carb and it's hard to find a place that has this on the menu, so HMP gets bonus points for that. They had a good craft draft beer selection too, so I was very happy. Service was very good too. The interior is nicely designed, modern looking, with a nice fireplace. Recommend giving it a try. read more

Food not the best gentlemen walking around not the friendliest prices a little high for dinner it's off-season

So i started the evening off fine.... food was perfect no wait great customer service overall a 10/10 dining extravaganza..... but then this buss boy with his bushy eyebrows and his juul came up to me and told me he's a better three point shooter in basketball. Can you fucking believe the nerve of this fucking kid..... talk about a fuckin square read more

It's a great place to have a bridal shower! I went to one and I'm having one for a family member soon. Great food, nice atmosphere. Can't wait to go there again to eat! Nice staff too. read more

This restaurant has the potential for being really good. We have been here a few times. So the atmosphere is consistently comfortable but noisy and the drinks are good (cosmos are a bit weak). One time we came the waiter was inexperienced and awful, my food was very very salty, one entree was cold...always very noisy! Clean up the details and this will be as great as Willies! Please put some curtains up we want to be able to have conversation when we are with friends! read more
