    Eggplant parm
    Aubrey J.

    I had a great experience here as a member of a large party! The food was surprisingly good because this place from the outside seems like a cookie cutter Italian pizza joint. I am picky about having my eggplant cooked all the way through, but I was so happy with my eggplant parm that was perfectly crispy! The service was also attentive and very child/family friendly. I would be happy to come back again if I return to the area!

A mixed drink with a great pour size, and a bottle of soda was $12 - which is cheaper than most venues considering it was a full bottle and we go to keep the cap and the mixed drink was large. We saw "The Carpenters", which I saw a while back at the Algonquin theater. I wanted to see the show again because it was so good, but this show was like listening to the B-side of a 45. I can't even tell you how disappointed I was that they didn't play many hits. She sang covers from other artists and not so popular hits. I personally found it strange the way the show began with the guy running the strand, coming on stage with a piece of paper talking, and then having us stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. I have no problems saying the Pledge of Allegiance, but I just found the whole thing odd. I've never gone to any other musical event or show where they had everyone stand up and say the Pledge of Allegiance prior to the event. I also had a rude person seating us. I thought I had bought center orchestra, but it turned out that I bought center tier and when I told him I just wanted to look at my phone to verify what I had purchased because I thought my tickets were wrong. He got nasty with me and told me that's what your ticket said that's what you bought and I told him to just give me a minute so I could just look it up on my phone to verify and it wasn't like he had anything else to do or he was seating anyone else I didn't ask him to wait with me. I understood that my tickets were for the tier, but before I climb the stairs to the top, I wanted to make sure that I got the correct tickets from Will call, but instead of just letting me be, he felt the need to argue with me when there was no argument to be had, and him finally walking away, saying whatever. Other than him all the other people working there were great. This was just one experience but normally I never have any problems there.

Waking up to a fresh snowfall is always a gift--made even better after an exceptional New Year's Eve at The Waterfront NJ Restaurant in Lacey, NJ. This year marked our 35th consecutive celebration with our best friends the Fays, a tradition that grows richer every time we gather. The ballroom was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and the band "Slap Happy" delivered an outstanding performance. With the drinks flowing, at one point, we even found ourselves at the microphone, adding our own spirited contribution to the night. While our table was a bit close to the stage--and the volume certainly matched the energy--the music, dancing, and drinks created a vibrant, festive atmosphere. Angolina, our server, was outstanding, helping to elevate the evening from the moment we arrived. Warm, attentive, and effortlessly efficient, she kept the celebration flowing. We began with our first round of drinks, and I made sure to savor my final dirty martini of the year. After three rounds and plenty of laughter, Angolina returned to take our dinner selections. Jeanne Marshall Schrader chose the jumbo shrimp stuffed with crab, finished with a luxurious lobster‑sherry cream, and served with rice and vegetables -- $35. I opted for the Zuppa D'Pesce: a beautifully prepared combination of jumbo shrimp, sea scallops, crab meat, little neck clams, and mussels in a spicy marinara over linguini -- $42. Carolyn Fay and Bob both selected the GF filet -- an 8oz center-cut topped with compound butter, accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes and a side of demi‑glaze -- $42. It was a flawless New Year's Eve--excellent food, exceptional service, lively entertainment, and the best company to welcome another year together.

Needless to say we ended up with some great photos at the end of the day. You're not going here though for the view. Sorry I had to. Anyways we only ate off the buffet menu that they had prepared. The selection was suprisingly minimal compared to others that I have been at but the price was less than those bigger ones. The quality of the food was 50/50 and the presentation of it was just the same. They had a really great potato dish with red peppers and onions. Wanted to put some ketchep on the side of that and for some reason that was only at another table in a completely different room. The salmon and the chicken were very well prepared but the eggs were not that great. Like I said you had a 50/50 chance of getting something that you were going to like. The dessert was about the same and there was enough choices that you were going to get something that you liked. The service was really what took this place down a notch. Which is strange because it's a buffet so it should be really hard to have bad service. The drinks that we ordered were a pain to get refilled and the plates were not getting taken from the table almost at all. We would have a bunch of empty glasses of water at the table and one of us would ask the server to fill it. She would come and fill that persons glass and walk away. So we realized that we had to tell the server to fill all the empty glasses. Problem was we had to keep doing this they wouldn't just do it. We had to ask each time. It's water it's free and I get that but to have to keep asking for a refill so weird. I wouldn't mind going to play a round at this place sometime and then try the regular sit down menu. Just don't know if this place was really that much of a stand out that I would go back. Would probably say worth a stop if your playing a round and in this area specifically.

Lobster Lounge is a bi-level seafood restaurant with the top level overlooking the water. We ordered oysters, coconut shrimp, and a giant pretzel to start and I ordered a cold lobster roll. Pretty decent food - I think the apps were the star of the show here. Our waitress, I forgot her name, was super sweet and accommodating. They have high chairs for children and stickers were given to the kids at my table. Would recommend if you're visiting the Jersey Shore!
