    We stumbled upon this place while craving ice cream with my friends, and we were delighted with our experience. A week later, my husband, kids , and I came and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the food we ordered. Since it's a takeout-only restaurant, there's no need for a server. Sodas are complimentary, and is dog-friendly. The outdoor seating offers a view of the bridge leading to Sandy Hook. They serve fresh lobster and clams, which are perfect for families. Plus, being pet-friendly is a bonus!

    I'm thrilled to have coming back after so many years, the place ambience and food still awesome You can't get a better fish place like Moby's an authentic fish shack !

    Festival Platter (Crab Cake, Scallop, Clam Strip) and 1/2 Lobster Roll

    Overall a good spot. Food has gone downhill in the last few years compared to 5 years ago. Food was decent. Fast service. Good ambiance when the weather is nice on the deck.

    This is supposed to be New England clam chowder clearly they have never been to New England

    Please don't eat the food here. It's a great location. The ice cream is good and the drinks are good, but their interpretation of New England clam chowder was like a watery soup. The lobster rolls had lobster that was very very old and fishy. The steamers came out and had clearly been sitting for several hours. They were ice cold. I won't eat here again, but I may come here and have an ice cream.

    If you want good, fresh, seafood without the fanfare of a restaurant with a wait staff, look no further. This gem has a nice outdoor deck with ample seating. The beer is cold and watching the boats come in and our provides a restful atmosphere with delicious food.

    Fresh clams,  jersey shore,  tradition.

    Moby's Lobster Deck is typically a positive experience for me. You have to keep your expectations in check. Simply put, this is super casual waterfront dining, a la picnic tables, rustic wood deck, a help yourself sort of place. Raw clams, a better-than-average burger and french fries, and a draft beer with waterfront breezes and sun; it doesn't get much better. Yes, the menu has ups and downs, some items are so-so, and some are on the pricey side. But if you have plans for an easy waterfront spot for a raw clam bar, this place will satisfy your needs. Just watch out for the super-aggressive seagulls hovering overhead!

    Second time back was kinda disappointing!! Lobster rolls were smaller and clam chowder was probably at the bottom of the barrel, it was all broth no substance. Kinda sad about this because I had such a good experience the first time.

    The food is amazing and the same quality as bahrs next store! I love the fast service and beautiful views of the river! Favorite place to go in the summer! No wait time and high quality seafood

    Great views from the deck and generally a great little seaside joint. I had oysters and a beer and it was fresh and tasty.

    Nothing to write home about. Just your average over priced fried food shack at the Jersey shore.

    Nothing fancy it's like a snack bar except they sell food. The food is like fast food. If you go to the beach it's a great place for lunch.

    Nice breezy outdoor spot but the food is very disappointing. New England clam chowder is very watery and they have mostly fried food.

    Great fresh seafood in a casual atmosphere with beautiful water views. The steamers, lobster, and crab cakes were delicious!

    Finally made it to Saltwater Social and we will definitely be going back!…read more We loved everything. We had the Peach Tea Bourbon, pork belly Bao Buns, twice fried wings, meatball pizza & the Pork schnitzel with the fresh cabbage slaw . It was all so good! While we definitely enjoyed the food we really appreciated the friendliness of the staff just as much. We eat out a lot & many places have good food but what stands out & makes us want to return is when the staff goes out of their way to connect with the guests and they definitely do that here !

    Our first visit to Saltwater social and it was very good. The place is bright and cheerful with…read moresome comfy cushioned seating along the wall across from the bar with small but intimate round high too tables. It was early Sunday night and the bar was full but the dining area wasn't so we stayed in the bar. Service was excellent, the bartender came around and made sure we were comfortable, handed us menus and brought water. She told us the specials and shortly after our server came by. I was a bit disappointed at the lack of seafood on the menu. My picky girlfriend would have enjoyed some flounder or scallops but they only had a seared salmon and blacked shrimp. The Mrs. Got a burger and it was adequate, nothing to write home about. I got the chicken parm and it was ample and terrific. The tomato sauce was stellar! Sadly I wanted the scallops with risotto. This place has potential, the service is great, the atmosphere is fantastic, plus I know the chef has the chops from visiting his last place, the red store in Navasink. We'll be back but I'll be sure to check for seafood offerings before I go.
