POINT PLEASANT BEACH: visiting The Ark Pub and Eatery is one of the best dining experiences we…read moreever had. Fantastic service, food, and we love their space. They have great people and management who really care about the customer experience. The Ark puts an emphasis on local and work with family run NJ businesses to provide the freshest ingredients. They offer a farm to table menu with seafood, burgers, sandwiches, salads, and more! A great cocktail list, full bar, and over 100 beer offerings including from NJ breweries. They also offer lunch specials seven days a week! Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed at the back outdoor patio that has a Key West vibe and fully covered on top by a tent. They are also allowed inside with a beautiful pub/tavern feel with woodwork and dim lighting. Olivia was our awesome server and was attentive, friendly, and gave Brie lots of love. There are TVs to watch the game, events throughout the week, and if you bring your own freshly caught fish, they will cook it for you!

The one got our order wrong for our but we didn't mind. It's pretty loud so he most likely misheard us. Steak tacos Salsa is just chopped tomato's but good favor and the guacamole is good. Classic. Not too garlicy. Overall it was good. Kinda bland and chewy. Cali burger Burger is good but a lotttt of salt. Fresh cut fries are good. Crispy and good fresh potato flavor but caked in thick grain salt.

We had a great experience here! We got here at around 2:15pm to kick off our day at the beach. Even…read morethough the The Food Shack closes at 2:00pm, the server behind the counter was very gracious and still took our order (and the orders of some people behind us) without complaining. We were really impressed by the location. The Food shack is located right on the beach which is the perfect way to enjoy a lunch on a Summer day in Point Pleasant. They have lots of umbrellaed outdoor seating, and some benches in the sun, so there are options for everyone. They also have some indoor seating, and the inside is adorable. We ordered a swiss grilled cheese with tomato on top, and a BLT. Each item came with pickles and a bag of chips. Each item was priced reasonably, especially considering typical Jersey Shore pricing. My grilled cheese was great. The bread/cheese/tomato ratio was perfect. The cheese was gooey, and stayed gooey even as the sandwich cooled. The bread on the grilled cheese was crispy on the outside and still soft and warm on the inside. I didn't know what to expect from a small shack on the beach, especially with something as simple as a grilled cheese, but I really enjoyed it. The BLT also had a gread tomato/bacon/lettuce/mayo ratio and wasn't too greasy. Overall I will definitely be coming back!

Even the wait time here is pleasant. My wife and I had to wait 40 minutes for our table but didn't mind a bit as we soaked up some sunshine and listened to the smooth guitar sounds coming from the guitarist playing outside. My wife had a breakfast sandwich that she loved. We split a spinach salad and I had a tuna melt on sourdough with a side of crabby fries. My sandwich was grilled perfectly. Tuna with melted cheddar and light, crispy buttery sourdough made for a great sandwich. TFS is seasonal only so their last day is October 26 this year and we plan on visiting again before they close for the season.

Shipwreck Grill delivers excellence from the very first moment--starting at the bar. Bartender…read moreSteve makes everyone who sits down feel genuinely welcome. He's beyond attentive, knows the menu inside and out, and clearly takes pride in his craft. His Old Fashioned is the best I've ever had--and I've had them everywhere. The martini is equally impressive, with that perfect cloudy glow that only comes from a flawlessly balanced shake. A phenomenal start to the evening. The food more than lives up to the experience at the bar. Every dish is precisely prepared, beautifully executed, and made with abundant, high-quality ingredients. You can taste the care and consistency in every bite. Without question, Shipwreck Grill is one of the best restaurants in Monmouth County. A true standout and a place I'll return to again and again.

One person in our party had an allergy. No alternatives for side dishes were offered. They just offered him a protein on a plate; no sides. When we asked if we could sub the French fries (allergy safe) for the side offered with the meal (it was either mashed potatoes or a pasta/rice and it was not safe) we were told no, but we could pay for a side dish of fries. We just felt like they were not super accommodating; they would have been fine putting a protein on the plate with no sides and calling it a day. Though our meal was very good. I don't think we will go back due to how crowded the space felt and not being able to accommodate allergies.

Something as simple as including it in the confirmation text would be a game changer for an experience. Nonetheless the food and service were nothing great. Strongly recommend getting the poached pear salad, great portion as well (we split it between 3 guests) the calamari was very fresh and light (I know even for a fried item you could taste the lightness) For our meals we ordered the scallops, the lobster special and a chicken pasta (modification) the seafood quality is absolutely palpable and the accompaniments are very well thought out. The food lacked salt but that's an easy fix. Will definitely be back (with a bottle of wine!)
