They had me at Staff! Wow!!! Great people! So friendly and inviting. I WANTED to eat here because the staff was so amazingly friendly!!' The place is big, plenty of seating but tables are spaced well for privacy and they have multiple rooms so it's not one giant room but several cozy ones. Great selections on the menu! Soups all were awesome! Crabcake was yummy, my ribeye cooked to perfection and the salmon was amazing!!! Great selection of deserts! I was VERY happy here and am greatly looking forward to my next meal!! Btw they do Sunday brunch!!! Hailey, our server! You ROCK!!! Two thumbs up!!!! read more

I've been coming to this restaurant over the past few months, mainly for their Sunday buffet. The food is good overall, but I've noticed a recurring issue with the menu. There have been multiple occasions where items listed on their website were not available at the buffet. On my most recent visit, at least four advertised dishes were missing. I understand menus can change, but if certain items are not consistently offered, the website should reflect that. Better accuracy would improve the overall experience. Just my $.02. read more

I returned here after a long time away. Three appetizers were ordered, coconut shrimp, calamari friti, and an order of wings. There were six coconut shrimp pieces, and they were of appropriate size. There was a solid shrimp to breading ratio here. Twelve wings were ordered with Buffalo and sweet chili sauce. The sauce was on the side, so it was just a fried wing. The Buffalo was a solid, standard sauce, while the sweet chili was sweeter than I would have thought. The wings as a whole were a little small and inconsistent. Some of the ones I tried were a little undercooked, but nothing drastic. The calamari had way too much breading. I feel like some did not even have calamari. For an entrée, I had the Mediterranean Salad with blackened salmon. The salad consisted of romaine lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, peppers, black kalamata olives, feta cheese, artichokes, stuffed grape leaves, cucumbers, and a house made Greek dressing. This was a generous size, especially the salmon filet. It would have been nice for the salmon to have more blackening present but everything else was solid and very fresh. read more

We love brunch here! Wish they had more breakfast options for brunch though as it seems like a lot more lunch options and they're mostly meat so it's not that inclusive if you're a vegetarian. The live omelette station and the cakes are always my favorite! read more

I was at Stoney Brook today for lunch with my group. There were several groups there . The staff was personal, professional and filled requests. The food was exceptional as usual. My group goes to the Stoney Brook several times a year and we always feel as if we are the only group there. The kitchen staff did an outstanding job. The food was served in a timely manner and was delicious. The needs of our group, microphone, US flag, etc was set up before we got there. I cannot praise the Stoney Brook enough. God bless them read more

It's a decent place for lunch during the work week. The food was fine, it seems like it would be consistently decent. I will say the service was spotty. We sat down at 1140 and the server said "we have tea, sodas, and alcohol. Although I don't want to be serving you alcohol this early"- that's a little judgey Also, she seemed attentive and capable, but then she would go missing for 10-15 min. read more

After typing in Top restaurants in the area, this place was there with good reviews. I'm rushing in writing this review so I'll say all the dishes you see in the pictures posted here are delicious. My waiter was Jim, he was excellent with his service. The ambiance is beautiful, it a large place with different rooms to dine or have a private event. I would definitely return read more

The restaurant is very pretty. They had a few parties going on in the other rooms but service was still great at our table. We ordered 4 things from the happy hour menu by the bar and everything was good! read more

My husband and I went to Stoney Brook Grille for a weekday dinner and sat at a table in the bar area. I started off with the french onion soup which was really good, but my husband didn't enjoy the chicken noodle soup. He said it didn't have enough noodles and the bowl was shallow. For entrees, he enjoyed his jambalaya (be warned- it has a kick and can be too spicy for some!), but I didn't like the crab cake sandwich I ordered. There was something off about the seasoning for me. We also split a side of mac and cheese which I would recommend! I bumped my rating up from 3 stars to 4 because our server/one of the bartenders (unfortunately I forgot his name) was very personable and attentive. read more

We went out with our neighbors to celebrate the new year. It was a part of 8. We had no trouble with the reservation and they were quite willing to discuss where we'd be seated with my husband when he asked. We were seated immediately upon arrival even though we were the first to arrive. Our server, Sam was delightful. She was quite willing to answer questions. I started with the Misunderstood spritz. It was very nice. E has the loaded nachos (delicious but messy) and the calamari as table appetizers. There was plenty to go around. I had the wild mushroom stuffed ravioli. It was so good- I ate it all! My husband enjoyed the strip steak special as well as a house Cesar salad. He brought home leftovers. Everyone enjoyed their meals. The portions were generous. Two people had dessert- one chocolate peanut butter and one cheesecake. Both folks enjoyed their dessert. We sat and talked for quite awhile and never felt rushed. All in all a delightful evening! read more

Aways excellent food and service. i often eat ther perhaps three times per week with my son.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Stoney Brook Grill, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was inviting and cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere for a memorable evening. There is occasionally live music, an excellent happy hour and even free bingo on Tuesdays - with prizes people actually want! I typically sit at the bar while I'm here and the bartenders are always extremely attentive and make excellent cocktails. The brown sugar old fashioned was an absolute delight, with just the right balance of sweetness and complexity. As for the bruschetta, it was simply divine. The combination of fresh tomatoes and fragrant basil provided a burst of flavor in every bite. Stoney Brook Grill always exceeds my expectations. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an enjoyable, affordable and delicious dining experience in the area. I will surely return and explore more of their menu. read more

Par for the course. Stoney Brook was packed but thankfully we had a super attentive waiter. The calamari was rather large with not a ton of sauce to match. The French dip sandwich was quite good, but the au jus could have used more flavor. The pulled pork sandwich was rather small but a great addition of the apples. The crab cake dinner was large. The cakes had a decent amount of filing, but generally had good flavor. Nothing fancy. Nothing crazy. Overall decent meal. read more

We went to the buffet today. The food was very good. Prepared perfectly . A large variety. I do think they had to many breakfast items & should have had a few more lunch options. The dessert selection was a nice variety. 5 different cake flavors, apple crisp & bread pudding. I had the crisp & pudding which were served warm & were wonderful. ( could have used a scoop of ice cream on the crisp!). With that being said, everything was good. The service was great. We couldn't have wanted for anything. The restaurant is beautiful in its decor. The front of house was super nice as we were being seated. We have been here many times. Not just for the Sunday buffet . The lunches are great also. A nice selection! We , of course will be back! read more

I really don't enjoy leaving less than stellar reviews but I owe it to my fellow yelpers to express my honest opinions about my experiences. The food was average at best. Flatbread is supposed to be flat, instead it is more like a small square pizza. The chicken dumplings were slimy and the warm spinach and chicken salad was off balance spinach to chicken ratio: for every one leaf of spinach there were three chunks of chicken cooked as if coming from a Chinese food carton container. Service was terrible - from the moment I walked in the hostess was dealing with a job applicant and did not even pause to acknowledge a paying customer who just walked through the door. (Me) The place was dirty, messy and empty at 5:30 on a Thursday evening and of all the empty tables available they chose to sit us all the way at the back right outside the kitchen doors by the bathroom. Beware: The website content terribly misrepresents the establishment feel. I was not a fan and will never return. read more

We ordered dinner from here for a large group and it was very reasonable in price. I ordered the crab cakes dinner which came with jasmine rice and veggies. It tasted like a wholesome meal with the rice and veggies. The crab cakes were tasty (though pretty buttery). I wasn't sure if they were 100% crab or partially filler. They were flaky but also a little mushy so I couldn't tell, but they were still good. Someone else got the crab cake sandwich and also enjoyed it. Others had the jambalaya, nachos and Mediterranean salad. Across the board, everyone liked their food. For the price, I thought it was a great value. I would order from here again if ever in the area. They even sent some bread and butter with the order too. read more

I came here as part of a work dinner and I would love to come back again Godwillingly. I don't remember the appetizers too well but I recall they were solid as well. The food here was amazing! I had the half chicken and the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was amazing. The waitress was friendly, and knowledgeable but I would have really liked it had she read the specials slower and louder since the group was larger. Definitely worth the trip. The parking was easy as they have a lot and the menu prices were fair! The restaurant seemed kind of empty although it being Monday night did not help. The tables didn't feel crowded at all. The dining area was well lit and clean overall. read more

We came here for the first time for a lunch date because we wanted to enjoy somewhere we could sit outside. The food was delicious - elevated, but not in a pretentious way. Just very tasty. I had a spring salad that was fresh and flavorful and the grilled chicken was perfect! The service was also excellent. My husband commented that our server might have been the best we've ever had. We definitely recommend. read more

Love this place. Took my parents here for Valentine's Day and they are hooked. We all had great meals. Alvaro was our waiter and he was really attentive and on top of everything. I had a pineapple coconut margarita and it was delicious. I probably could have had a few more but I didn't tonight. I'll definitely get that again. The owner, Seamus is one of a kind. He walks the entire restaurant and talks to everyone. That is so important. He really wants to be sure everyone is happy. We come her a few times a week now. Do not miss their Sunday Brunch. That is remarkable read more

Omg excellent food, drink and service! Celebrated my sister's birthday and just an absolute beautiful experience! Sam our waitress was an awesome help on making the best choices on the menu, but honestly don't think any choice would be wrong. If you haven't tried this place yet you are missing out on one of the best places in NJ! We will be back and can't wait to try another wonderful dish on the menu!! read more

Stopped here for lunch because of Yelpers recommendations and they were 100% on the mark. Had the super delicious French dip and upgraded to French onion soup with a nice Guinness. Boom! Also ordered the Pulled Pork sandwich. Tangy and juicy. If in the area it's a solid choice. read more

Wow, can I just tell you how amazing their jambalaya is? It is the best I have had outside New Orleans. A hint of spice, the andouille sausage is fantastic. While I am writing this I'm craving the dish. Unless there is an ingredient you don't like order this. The server was wonderful too, we talked about how great that dish is. Friendly place. I finished off my night with Bread Pudding. Again outside of New Orleans the best I've had. Not to mislead it is missing the liquor used in NOLA but tasty even without it. By all means try this place and know they make good food. read more

Really liked our visit! Friendly and efficient service, very professionally operated, and nice ambiance. Poke bowls were outstanding, fresh quality ingredients perfectly prepared and presented. Looking forward to our return sometime soon. May I make one suggestion to the ownership? Even though we were there on an " off time" and the room was not full, the noise level due to the acoustics was quite high. Understanding this is not a "romantic" tulle venue, it was still louder than comfortable. That said, this is a fabulous place, worthy of a visit when in the area. You'll enjoy it for sure! read more

Very nice restaurant, the kind of place I would expect my boss to entertain people at. Pleasant staff, clean and modern interior, classic cape cod exterior. Atlantic style menu, I had the crab cakes and a beer, delicious! A little pricey, but worth it! read more

It's a family business and it shows. They care about the service they provide and the patrons who receive it. During the pandemic they made it very easy to get good food to bring home. The food is consistently good. We've been a patron for a long time. It's our go to place. I'm a big fan of the jambalaya and the burger is also a good choice. The corn crab chowder is delicious. I wish it was a bigger serving. I listen attentively to the specials because there's usually one or two that pull me away from the jambalaya, sometimes! It's a warm atmosphere. Especially in the bar area. The drinks are done well and the price, in todays world, is reasonable. We also had a private dinner for about twenty. Rave reviews from everyone who attended. We worked from the regular menu which was great. It was a birthday party so we brought our own cake. read more

My mom, sister, and I grabbed lunch here on a Friday after wedding dress shopping. My sister, the bride-to-be, had called in a reservation and requested outdoor dining as we had read they have outdoor seating available as well as heat lamps. When we got there and mentioned sitting outside, the hostess seemed very confused. It turns out that whoever took the call had forgotten to make note of that, and therefore, they didn't have outdoor seating set up. The hostess took a few minutes to set up a table, chairs, and a heat lamp for us which was really nice. We felt so bad inconveniencing her! I wish the person who had taken our reservation had left a note about our request! I had the salmon Poke Bowl for lunch which was delicious and so filling. It was loaded with salmon and all the veggies you can imagine. I loved the seaweed salad mixed in. It was such a colorful and satisfying meal! I was very impressed with the portion size and plating. The Mediterranean salad and chicken teriyaki bowl that my sister and mom got looked very good, too. We were all given bread prior to our meals which was certainly a highlight. It was definitely freshly baked and the herb butter it came with was incredible! We shared some sort of fabulous lemon and raspberry cake for dessert. We were all quite full from our entrees and hesitated about dessert, but in the end we were glad we ordered it! Perfect way to end the meal. Although I cannot comment about indoor dining, I did walk inside to use the restroom and the restaurant appeared to have been following all Covid restrictions. All staff members were wearing masks, tables were easily at least six feet apart, and I saw hand sanitizer at the front of the restaurant for customers to use. If I end up back in this area, I would be happy to return for lunch or dinner. As the weather warms up, I hope the outdoor seating area will be better organized! read more

Very noisy, lots of hard surfaces and the sound bounces around. Even though it was sparsely occupied, I couldn't hear my wife or the waitress. If you are hearing impaired, go someplace else. Food was good but it could have been warmer. I had the Vegan burger and my wife had the grilled chicken BLT; we both had the Shore Fries. Service was friendly and we were greeted promptly by the waitress but we had to wait a long time for most things. I would go back to give them another chance but only if they do something about the noise level. read more

We were there for brunch on 11/24/24, meeting up with about 15 members of a club to which I belong. I look forward to buffets as my experience has always been good. This was not. The buffet was set up on tables around the bar. Everything except rolls and most desserts were in large hinged chafers. There was an omelet station at the end of the rest of the foods. I couldn't believe that the first four chafers offered the same food that you get in a Holiday Inn with your free breakfast - crumbly scrambled eggs, dried out pancakes, undercooked bacon & little sausages. As I started prowling around the area and checking out the offerings, I became more and more disappointed. There was variety but everything looked unappetizing. There was nothing without a sauce or dressing. There were only rolls as a bread choice with the butter on the opposite side of the bar. No bagels, no toast, no muffins. I wanted a slice of cheesecake and the bar tender rushed over to slice and serve from the cake. He gave me a slice of about 1/4". I asked for another. I didn't see a cookie or anything that didn't come from a supermarket icebox. Why was this place so crowded and incredibly noisy? There was plenty of drinking. As I said, the buffet was placed around the barroom on tables against the wall. Two people could barely fit to walk past each other. I wouldn't care how crowded it was if the food had been good. The ambiance was poor. The food was poor. The service persons were friendly and brought tea and coffee. They were easy to wave over. The positive: it wasn't more than an hour from my house and super easy to find. There was plenty of parking. And...this may be weird, their ice water was delicious. It was not flavored or anything like that but I noticed how good it was. The facility was clean. Price: $29.95 for adults and $16.95 for children. We would have been better off stopping somewhere and getting a nice bagel with cream cheese and lox. I love the club people but I could barely hear anything due to the din in the main room. This has got to be the most unsatisfied review I have ever written. read more

This was a great last min find on our way home from Peddlers Village. Our waitress Josephine (pretty sure that was her name) was the best we'd had all weekend. Jerk pulled chicken quesadilla was great from the specials menu. My wife loved her Tuna poke bowl. I wish I wasn't driving 2 hours or I would have tried their Sangria special. Great staff, fresh ingredients and a clean place. Next time I'm passing through I'll definitely be stopping in again. read more
