fresh seafood, laid-back vibes, and incredible service at shore fresh everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. the lobster bisque was rich, velvety, and packed with deep seafood flavor -- one of the best i've had. the blackened fish was perfectly seasoned, paired with wild rice and cole slaw for a satisfying, well-balanced plate. the whole lobster was a showstopper -- sweet, tender meat that pulled right out of the shell, served with drawn butter and a crisp side salad. and the steamed clams were absolutely delicious, especially with the lemon and dipping sauces. the atmosphere was relaxed and coastal -- picnic-style tables, dockside breeze, and the kind of casual charm that just makes everything taste better. service was stellar -- friendly, quick, and helpful with recommendations. we never felt rushed, and everything came out hot and timely. shore fresh nailed the jersey shore seafood experience. already looking forward to our next visit. read more

Cute spot, casual and friendly too. This place has the freshest seafood and it's delicious. The salads are generous, lobster rolls (hot or cold) amazing and they know how to do fries. The wild caught salmon with balsamic glaze was fantastic. They get packed out in the summer so prepare yourself, but well worth a wait if need be. read more

Had been to other Shore Fresh location near inlet, and enjoyed. Decided to try Bridge Ave location, big mistake. My New England clam chowder arrived COLD, and was chock full of a spice (thyme?) that made it inedible. My wife's hot lobster roll was terrible; instead of having drawn butter, it was full of marinara sauce. Again, almost inedible. We ate outside on a nice evening and the tables were jammed together. Not good. Service was okay, but very slow (waitress apologized for that). On a more positive note, our shared garden salad and my broiled seafood combo were both alright. Not a good experience, won't be returning. read more

Of course I came back to Shore Fresh during my visit down the Shore! The content of my first review still stands, however, I wanted to add a few things. 1) HIGHLY recommend the clams oregano and/or the fried calamari (with buffalo sauce!) for appetizers. 2) Shore Fresh offers a huge selection of soft drinks, ranging from Coke products to flavored teas and Stewart's sodas. There are also many sugar-free and dietary-friendly alternatives of popular drinks! 3) Service was amazing--very efficient, and all the waiters we encountered were friendly and hardworking. That's it! read more

Usually their food is fine. Do not order the hot lobster roll. It was the worst I've ever had. Over cooked, dry, chewy. I did tell the server. She was fine and apologized. They did not take the uneaten lobster roll off the check however. read more

The fish choices are absolutely fantastic! We had the flounder, cod and grouper and all came out fresh, hot and so so delicious! The fish was melt in the mouth good! This place is going to be our go to in point pleasant area. Couldn't take pictures because too busy eating read more

Truly horrendous. The NE clam chowder was goofy, too peppery and salty, the clams rubbery. The lobster tasted like iodine and not pre cracked and worst of all extremy overcooked. My husband ordered swordfish that was extremly overrated and overcooked. My review will not effect its business so I'm being frank. We usually go elsewhere but my husband wanted to try something new. Yuck. The servers were nice. read more

Loud music not conducive to dining! Food mediocre and over priced. I felt like it was a rip- off. Will not return.

Good value, large portions. Friendly staff. My main complaint is that use plastic silverware and serve in the cooking dishes. This may save on back of the house help but for what they charge, you deserve a knife that can cut and a fork that can pick up your food. read more

Casual dining for good seafood. My group enjoyed calamari, lobster bisque, fish tacos and entree specials. Enjoyed it all.

Ok... we're Local's. Such a shame but done with Shore Fresh. Picked up a Fried Flounder sandwich with fries & slaw. It is now $15.98 with tax. Small hamburger roll & 3 1/2 inch piece of flounder! Really? Not for $15.98 people. (Palm Sunday, April 10th, 2022.) Photo below No, I did not eat any first! Totally disgusted by my purchase. I should have driven back to show management. read more

4 stars for the grilled salmon. Salmon is an easy dish but yet it's constantly for the lack of better words "overlooked" in their cooking. This location has one of the best salmon that I've had so far. The grilled salmon to be specific. Grilled with the perfect char that you can smell and taste and the perfect crispy yet moist consistency. The best part is the salmon had the perfect amount of seasoning. I hope this stays consistent in the future. Will be back to get it again. There's ample parking with a couple of outdoor seating and a small indoor dining space(left side). Take out is located on the raw seafood side (right side) read more

last week before 6 we went to the boro location for supper and dollar oysters. My spouse ordered the lobster mac & cheese and I started with a dozen oysters. The place was busy and only one server so we waited awhile for everything. We weren't in a hurry so we understood and were ok with that. At about 6:15 I ordered 6 more oysters. When the bill came it was $3.00 each for the 1/2 dozen. I questioned it I am at their market 1or 2 times a week ordering fish, am a local and patronize them. And it's not the summer. She checked with the owner and we were told THAT'S THE PRICE! I will drive over the bridge and buy my seafood from now on. Last penny they will get of mine and I will share this with everyone I know. read more

Fishing village shack atmosphere. It's refreshing that they haven't tried to turn this place into a "fancy" restaurant like most other places with the influx of New Yorkers/ north Jersey folks. Service is generally pretty nice. The food here can be good if you keep it very simple- peel and eat shrimp, lobster Mac and cheese, etc. but the entrees are just passable. The blackened mahi looked great, but was very overcooked. The side of broccoli must have been blanched for 20 seconds because it was still basically raw. Everything inexplicably comes with a side of prepackaged Ken's steakhouse ranch dressing, presumably to dip your fish in which idk, seems disgusting--this isn't Ohio. You're doing basic dishes here- it's not too hard to get them right but they need work. read more

Been loyal customers for 12 years. Kim has always been our server... but the last 2,times we were told that she had too many tables. Unfortunately, Shore Fresh has lost our weekly business . Sorry to say this read more

Popped in during a quiet, sunny winter weekend day to avoid crowds during THE PANDEMIC. Super nice server who was very friendly and helpful. Started with the New England chowder, which I enjoyed. Just wished the potatoes were a bit more cooked - they were not tender and could have been simmering for a bit longer, but overall a nice soup, served hot and fresh with a packet of oyster crackers. For $13, I tried the fish and chips and was pleasantly surprised to be given a choice on the type of fish. I went with the cod. The chips (french fries) were excellent, really tasty and fluffy. The fish was OK, a little bland. The combo came with a Ken's brand packet of tartar sauce and a small condiment cup of coleslaw. read more

Worst New England Clam Chowder I have ever had at the Jersey Shore! Consistancy as if it was thickened with corn starch. No large vegetable chunks or clam bits. It was purchased to go. Once it was home I doctored it with heavy cream and butter to make it palitable. First and last purchase. read more

Is there a no star? Fuck this is fast food. Food is from Sysco or US foods from frozen to fryer to table. The sauces are packaged they don't even fake it. Very disappoint in, ! Shame on fresh food Lies on fresh food read more

Worst food I've had in a long time. Absolutely a no go. I can't begin to describe how pathetic this attempt at a restaurant is. My fish loving kids were disgusted and they eat everything. Horrendous doesn't describe it. read more

Great food and service. Friendly staff and large portions. Everything was delicious.

Lobster Mac Where's the lobster? This is terrible for $18.99. Extremely disappointed do not know how any one would let this out of the kitchen. Bland, not cheesy enough and barely a teaspoon of lobster meat. read more

Enjoyed my quick visit here during the COVID times. Tables were well spaced apart, waitstaff wore masks and provided friendly, quick service. Our food came out piping hot. My fries were the bomb! Not sure if they are hand cut but they were perfectly done. Went next door to check out the market with the fresh seafood which also had a small selection of groceries . Our waitress said all the fish was local. This place would get my return business. read more

*Pre COVID Review* Reminiscing the spread of delicious seafood my friends and I would get before returning back home from the shore. Quarantine, I just want you to know that I really dislike you. I would be lying if I didn't say this is one of my favorite seafood restaurants to visit. Though, far from where I live, it gives me an excuse to visit after the beach. I love the fact that it's a market that converts to a restaurant. I feel those are the best seafood places you can eat. Of the many times I've visited, the food was always fresh (just like their name). Food I always order; - lobster Mac n cheese: super filling and tastes great - mussels: great portion! - fish tacos: love fish tacos so I have to - lobster roll: again, I have to lol served the Maine way (cold with mayo which is super refreshing on a hot day) - fish n chips: batter is not heavy at all - blackened tuna The prices are fairly marked. You get a load of food for what you pay for. The staff is always so welcoming, what's not to like!! Pictured - Lobsta Mac n Cheese, Fish Taco w Fries, Maine Lobster Roll w/ Fries, Buffalo Fried Calamari : $16.99, $10.99, $12.99, $10.99 (listed in order of food) read more

10/10 recommend the fish market! We get all of our fish from here when we can! The people who work there always go above and beyond to answer questions. When you dine in the food is good as well! read more

Stopped in for lunch on a whim. Everything was fresh and tasty. Homemade, great quality at great prices!

I love everything about this restaurant. That woman who took our orders and Randy dining room when this large party of 15 people showed up was amazing! I don't know how she did it. The food was so reasonably priced and such delicious Lee fresh seafood. We had all kinds of orders of different menu items at our table. And everyone of us enjoyed every meal. It's a BYOB joint and we had wine and good cheer and good friends and great service and great food. I enjoyed the broiled seafood platter even though the crabcakes were a bit over fried, everything else was delicious. We had pasta with shrimp which received high marks. The salads were made of fresh,crisp veggies. The seafood bisque was disappointing. It basically taste like stock with very little cream and even less seafood. That would be the one thing I wish they had done better. The bathroom was OK. That could've been nicer. But overall really no complaints. The prices were right. The sea food was fresh. The service was good. I would eat there again. And again the woman who took care of us that night was exceptional. read more

Ordered takeout. I ordered the seafood pasta special with pesto cream sauce. It was super flavorful. I highly recommend this if it is on the specials again. My husband got the seafood scampi. Very good but he likes mine better. Portions were huge. Love this place. read more

Food and service are great. Prices very reasonable. A mainstay shore restaurant. One of the best lister rolls around

If you love fish and chips, look no further than the shore fresh seafood market in point pleasant! Both a fish market and restaurant, this small business is local and delicious. You've gotta try the perfectly fried, flaky cod! Delicious!!! In addition, we ordered the new England clam chowder which was very good and the lobster roll. Their lobster roll is as on the menu.. Lobster salad on a hot dog roll. Not quite my favorite, but I've never received so much lobster for only $10.99. Not quite sure how they do it!! Overall, we'll be back next season. I'm sure that it will be a crazy wait during warmer weather! Happy that they are open year round!!! read more

Less then 1 star! We ordered everything at once. My daughters soup came out about 10 min later. Waitress never checked to see how soup was btw she didn't like it cause it had tooo much pepper in it. Waited at least 45 minutes for our dinner which I understand if busy but wasn't that busy at that time. I ordered a crabmeat lobster tail what I got was a very tough rubbery lobster tail with a chunk of fried crad meat stuffing sitting on top lol. I also ordered pasta for the baby and a side of broccoli for the baby asking if they could please make it soft being the baby was going to eat it and well when they came out the broccoli was anything but soft and pasta was aldente. Asked to speak to manager and showed him all things that were wrong and he decided to discount check. Meanwhile we really haven't seen our waitress ,she never checked up on us! So his final decision is to give us a 10% discount on our check lol which means we got the broccoli for free lmao so my daughter went over to him asking why he didn't just take the broccoli off the check mind u I told the waitress that I needed it extra soft being the baby was gonna eat it. He finally took the check back and took off the broccoli and just dumped the check on the table and walked away!! I've worked all my life in food service and I have NEVER experience such shit like this!! Never once did he address the fact that the lobster tail was over cooked! I have never ever left a revue let alone a bad revue but being a server myself I would have taken the meal back and had a manager take the meal off the check! I wasn't looking for a free meal only for a meal that was edible! Manager was unprofessional and waitress really lacked and btw watched the said waitress table sitting behind us getting up and getting his bottle of soda! I guess her outside tables were more important then her inside tables! read more

I give this a five as we prefer old school fish market restaurants; menu from our youth plus updates, family friendly service, classic dishes. Incredible NE Clam Chowda. Fine fish cake, a fav item of mine. Updated dining room, good parking. Highly recommended. read more

The stuffed clams oreganata were a great starter. The fried shrimps were a great size and delicious. Fish and chips are a hit. The service was fantastic, staff kept the table clean, food did not take long to come out. The place is kept very clean. read more

Totally not a fan! We spent $100 for 4 lunches (fried scallop sandwich, 2 lobster rolls and an order of fried shrimp) and they were bland! My fried shrimp sandwich had no flavor at all and no dressing even though when we called they said it has a taco sauce on it. Fries were bland, practically raw and cold and no salt. The lobster rolls looked like they were put into a blender. My wife asked for extra ketchup and we got none! No napkins or utensils but it came with Cole slaw that I guess we could eat with our hands or just pour it into our mouth. But it was hot and bland as well. If you are craving nursing home style food then this is where you should get it from. read more
