    Good food, service from Robin, excellent it's a tavern located on Main Street in Belmar. It seems cheerful enoug. There appears to be an older crowd so the food must be decent cause older folks tend to return especially during dinner hour. I came here to see the band, NRG. A nice watering hole. 3.5 stars.

    Cheese curds

    This place is very local. Old crowd comin in and hugging the hostess. The bar stretches throughout the place, the restaurant is very long. We sat at a table looking at our menus, watching the open kitchen cook. We were given a pitcher of water and waiting a very long time for our drinks. What seemed to be the owner was a very nice woman taking all the orders. Very frazzled. We got the Blarney Balls, very good and just what u want, Irish nachos, came out burnt, plastic nacho cheese and some green onions, cheese curds, can't go wrong with cheese curds, and the clams. Oh also a bowl of cheddar broccoli which came out cold and we had to send back to be put into the oven. I say this with every bar I've gone to, get bar food. Cheese curds yes, wings yes, our wings were crispy and had no flavor. We had to ask for extra sauce bc they just tasted like chicken. I'm sure their handhelds would be excellent but I didn't partake so I can't say if they were or not. OMG if I hear another fricken plate get smashed. It seemed as if the chef DIDNT wanna be there. Smashing shit and half assing the food ‍. Come here for the bar scene. Live music and loud talking. 5.4/10. Again. VERY NICE PPL!!! Food not so much.

    Drunken Clams - very good

    So many delicious food options! Whether from their regular menu or specials, you won't be disappointed. Service was great and quick and ambiance was my favorite, just a nice dive bar.

    Nightly specials

    I was very disappointed in this tavern. It was 6:15 pm & only 2 people were sitting at the bar. I went because the menu indicated the Wednesday night special was Fish & Chips. Not seeing it, I asked & was apologized too. The waitress/bartender said that they had dropped many of the specials due to the pandemic & she hadn't gotten around to changing the menu online (in 2 years?). I then asked what IPA's they had. Only one kind. My partner wanted Coors Light. It wasn't on tap. We ordered onion rings as an appetizer but the only sauce to be served was ketchup. My cheeseburger was severely underdone after ordering it medium but not bloody. Even after sending it back, it was still mooing. I ate a small end & took the rest home for the dog as well as my partners steak tips that appeared grey. While the bartender was very pleasant it doesn't make up for the food.

    Chill bar, has some pool tables and nice crispy onion rings

    Are reservations necessary?

    not really, obviously being a beach town and the summer it will be more crowded but they have lots of room. also consider the size of your party... we go a lot but were two people so we can almost always sit at the bar. try their 7 day a week happy…

    I cannot speak more highly of this restaurant. We were impressed from the moment we walked in at…read morehow incredibly assertive their service was. We barely sat down and our waitress came right over to open our wine (BYOB). Once we settled in and had a few sips of our wine, our waitress asked us if we had ever been there before (it was our first time) and she clearly explained all of the items on the menu. Before ordering, Lana came over to check on us to see if we needed help with the menu, which showed us how attentive she is to her patrons. We ended up ordering the S2FD, which is a seafood pasta served in a bread bowl and the veal chop pizzaiola. We have been to numerous places in Italy and I have an Italian mother (ssshhh don't tell her) and this may have been the best Italian meal we have ever had. Everything about our food was perfect. I don't think we had a real conversation during dinner because we kept going on and on about how amazing our food was. We took a look at the generous portions when our food came out and knew we wouldn't be able to finish everything...we finished everything. We even ordered dessert, which are all homemade. I also really have to give them props for the appropriate amount of time between ordering and being served. We have had experiences in recent history at restaurants where we order, have two sips of wine and bam our food has arrived. If we wanted fast food we would go to Burger King. We were able to sit, relax, enjoy our bread and wine but without it being too long that we got hangry. You can absolutely tell the food is served fresh right out of the pot and hasn't been sitting under heat lamps for hours. The quality of their food would have been enough for us to give them 5 stars and return but the service and dedication of their staff was phenomenal. Lana was constantly checking in with her customers and helping to clean off and set tables. I have been to numerous restaurants where the owner is present but just sits in the back at a table with their friends. She was so hands on and you can tell that the body moves from the head. The restaurant is small but somehow doesn't feel cramped, so I would advise making a reservation. We want to come back for Lana's Sunday sauce!

The service was excellent throughout the entire evening, and every cocktail we ordered was fantastic. We started with a few appetizers, which were the perfect way to kick off the meal before diving into our mains. For dinner, we ordered the Duck Rice, Schnitzel, octopus, and mushroom skewer. While everything was delicious, the Duck Rice and Schnitzel were the clear standouts. Both were packed with flavor, and the Schnitzel was an especially generous portion without feeling over the top. It was perfectly cooked and incredibly satisfying. To top off the night, we headed downstairs to their cocktail bar, Laylow, and had an amazing time. The atmosphere was fun, the cocktails were just as impressive as dinner, and it was the perfect way to end the evening. If you're in Asbury Park, I definitely recommend checking out Reyla and making a stop at Laylow afterward. Great food, outstanding service, amazing drinks, and an all-around memorable experience.

We opted to sit at the bar because the vibe looked good. I had a lemondrop martini from the half price menu and it was good but a little too sweet. Then I had the Blood Sugar Sex Magic from the regular menu and it was unique and fun. I then had an espresso martini with dessert. I was feeling good after that. We did three appetizers: hummus, falafel, and the halloumi. The hummus had a nice texture but it could have used a little more lemon and garlic. But it was served with a jumble of fresh herbs on top which was very nice. The falafel was amazing. The texture was perfect: very crispy on the outside and light and fluffy inside. Not like the dense falafel you get in some places. It was serviced on top of a delicious red pepper sauce. The server told me it was an old family recipe. The halloumi was fantastic. Very generous and covered in a very crispy coating. It sat in a pool of hot honey. They brought the appetizers out one at a time, which was the perfect way to pace it. We were pretty full by the end so we shared one entrée. We had the lamb kofta. It was cooked perfectly and sat atop a pomegranate labneh. It was also delicious. For dessert my husband had the chocolate cake which was only ok. I had the baklava malabi which was sooo delicious. Great meal and excellent service. Paul the bartender was friendly and made good drinks.

There was never a shortage of grilled meats, with staff constantly rotating through and taking a glance at your table to see if you're ready for the next skewer of goodness that they had. All the meat was seasoned wonderfully and were cooked well, with rare and well options. Our favorites: skirt steak (it was so tender and flavorful), picanha, chicken wrapped in bacon (was so smokey & juicy) and finally, the grilled pineapple. You definitely need to stay until you had a taste of that! My one complaint would be that the salad bar/hot buffet dishes weren't changed out nearly enough, but with all the staff working on the meat orders you can't be that upset with that. They did have some great options on the buffet line, my favorite being the chimichurri that paired wonderfully with the steaks. This is such a great option for when you don't want the commercialized chain feel of Fogo de Chao.

The Pineapple was tasty, of all the meats. The lamb was good, but even the medium was tough. They also had a buffet option that many guest opted for with oxtail and salad bar. The food was mediocre for the price. A nice experience but we go for flavor not just fun. They can add more latin flavors to the meat, it was just meat. I was a bit disappointed being a foody, and most of all a carnivore that likes garlic.
