    Thai noodle bowl with blackened shrimp

    Not sure why this place gets such mediocre reviews. Came here two nights in a row for the Thai noodle bowl with blackened shrimp. Highly recommend. Picture doesn't do justice. Caribbean rice bowl with blackened chicken was also good. Mussels with white sauce were really delicious. Peanut butter chocolate pie hit the spot. Didn't care for their old fashioned but grapefruit royale was really good. Great service and fun bar ambiance. Impressed by the bathrooms too, very clean.

    I've only ever been to the princeton for happy hour/drinks before, and this past weekend we decided to check out the spot for lunch. Unfortunately, I feel that small plates & drinks are the better way to experience this spot...my lunch meal was not prepared very well. Those who ordered from the small plate section had food that turned out better. The broth in my noodle bowl was tasty, and the shrimp were cooked well, but there was so much of the broth that the noodles became completely soggy and I just avoided eating them. The wine list was good and the service was fine, so I think in the future I will stick to coming for just drinks/apps. The ambiance also was very dark and didn't feel like a daytime lunch spot. Food: C- Drinks: B Service: B Ambiance: C

    Quickly sat for a weekday lunch with a party of 10+ at a nice big square table seating us all together. Fast service and great food with perfect portions!

    The food here is usually good, but unfortunately service can me hit or miss. They are often short staffed, which is a shame as the establishment is beautifully decorated.

    We go to the Princeton every Friday night and it's awesome! The bartenders make the experience! The food is great and so is the atmosphere, but the bartenders will make your night! Ryan ,Drake, Michael, Pat, Jeff, Matt and Jacko are At++ on service and friendliness! They are all the best!

    The servers are extremely overworked but the food is very good. Portions are small and overpriced.

    Summer Salt in concept, is an exciting, inventive meal, with a focus on locally sourced…read moreingredients. In reality, this was a grossly overpriced meal for a lot of hit/miss items and rather small portions. To start, we reserved the covered patio. The chairs were wildly uncomfortable with no low back support. Service was friendly and attentive, always refilling waters and clearing plates. I do appreciate how the staff acknowledged our special occasion and even printed a keepsake menu. This did not go unnoticed. Now for the food: You pay $95/pp for a 4 course meal. 6 small (shared) plates that are merely 1-3 bites per small plate, per person, and an entree and dessert of choice per person. $95 pp wouldn't be horrible if the small plates were executed properly and if you got more than 1 small parm crisp and 1 small fritter per person just as an example. The portions were laughable, and this was moreover a tasting. Some items needed simple basics such as salt and acid to round them out. The beet salad, green beans and fritters were severely underseasoned. The star of the show was the linguine and clams. We both ordered this. This portion was appropriate. Again, for the small salads/bites, a pasta dish per person and a slice of cake per person, a more appropriate price point would have been approx $55-75 per person contingent on your entree (there was also steak and fish). The lemon mirror cake was a nice ending to the meal and we appreciated the complimentary coffee. We left with the general consensus that it was good, not great, nor memorable, and felt we overpaid for the quality and portions. Of note: this is also a BYOB.

    This definitely would have been 4 stars for the beautiful decor, friendly staff, and interesting…read moremenu. The pre fixe menu was good, though not a lot of food per person. The spot on the water with the view of the dunes is gorgeous. I don't mind paying for an expensive meal. But over $100 a person for average portion size and no drinks (it's BYOB) is crazy. For that reason alone I wouldn't go back. I need at least one martini to justify paying $130 a person.
