The combination of sushi and Mexican, while seemingly contrasting flavors, hit different when you're on the Jersey shore boardwalk. It's best to enjoy any of these spots, especially The Break, during the early fall months after all the tourists have gone back up north. Worth the wait read more

Food was good however nothing really stood out . I had the chilaquiles which tasted really good despite all the nachos being soggy however that could just be because I prefer some crunchiness in my nachos. For the price on the boardwalk it wasn't bad. Service was good our server was attentive and kind. She ensure she refilled our water when she saw it running low. Ambiance of this place is to come and get a quick bite or enjoy the live band. read more

Really fun beach bar. We came in to wait out a thunderstorm, and the views were perfect. Bartender was very nice. They make their own chips, but were out today, so we got some sides that rocked. Jalapeño potato salad, garlic broccoli, and, my favorite, chipotle grits. The crowd can get pretty rowdy at times, but that's to be expected given the location. Bartenders and patrons did a good job of shutting down a potential fight. read more

Highly recommend! I came here on a whim with my fiancé, friend and her husband. What a great find! The location was perfect, right on the boardwalk. We had the oysters for our appetizer and the braised short rib for our dinners. The food was all amazing and really hit the spot. read more

Had dropped by The Break for a bite to eat after being on the beach all day. Thankfully there was no wait and we were quickly seated outside. It was a very nice dinner on the boardwalk with a nice a beautiful view. The menu was okay-- had some salads, burgers, sandwiches, and sushi. We started with some beers and drinks and the nachos to start. Nachos were pretty good and the tortilla chips were layered with all the toppings. Our food came out a short time later. I enjoyed my burger and fries and I loved the cheese dipping sauce that came with my fries. My sister liked her poke bowl. Overall it was a pleasant dinner and we all enjoyed our food. read more

Great place for when you want an easy sit down lunch on the boardwalk. Our drinks took about 25 minutes to come out, but our food arrived very shortly after and everything was tasty. The oysters were served with a mango chimichurri which was surprisingly delicious. I would come back during another beach day! read more

Delicious resturant with the best view right on the boardwalk- can't go wrong! Service was excellent and our waitress was super friendly. The food was great- we got fresh oysters, french fries and fish tacos. The tacos were big, filling and the avacado aioli was perfect for the fried fish. I got six fresh oysters and one of them had a pea crab in it! Did not love that at all but also wouldnt stop me from coming back here. read more

Sadly it has declined in food from last summer. Went today. Took awhile to order but the food did arrive in a timely fashion. Ordered some Kind of 3 Dragon sushi roll. Tasty off. Though I ate it the whole time thinking something is off cuz I was hungry. Friend ordered watermelon Jacimi salad and said the jacimi was a poor amount in the salad. Pretty much all watermelon and greens. Other friend ordered buffalo wings. They brought barbecue wings, waitress had to double check if she wrote it right, we'll never know because seemingly 20 minutes went by and no wings. We canceled the order. Waitress tried to say they were not prepared for amount of people. We didn't have to wait for a table. The place was emptying out for the late afternoon crowd, so I don't buy it. They were pretty well staffed. It's unfortunate because I've told people the food is decent. Just wasn't anymore. Seems they are just now in the market of drinks and live music. Which is fine. However the decor is still quite dull, non existent and boring, like a storage warehouse, compared to what once was langosta lounge. Music it is. Food it ain't. read more

Place is pretty big. Inside and outside dining. Ordered calamari as an appetizer which was good. Lobster roll with chips, the roll was good but the chips were over cooked. Lobster mac and cheese my friend really enjoyed and the portion size was huge. I ordered the chirashi bowl- which is like a poke bowl. I really enjoyed it, it was light dish it was just missing some spicy mayo sauce. Cocktails were way to sweet, not worth the purchase. Service was okay. read more

I've visited this spot twice this past summer, and had great meals, both times! The service can be somewhat spotty when it comes to get a table (initially), and they are always packed when I'm there, so it takes some time before a server will come by to take your order. Love the ambiance indoors (too hot for the outside!). As for the food, we had a round of oysters for our appetizer, and then the mussel pot (both EXCELLENT) and I have to say, the Maui Bowl was really really really good. Something about that coconut rice is divine! I would pass on drinking the sake (it wasn't that great), and next summer, I think I might try their sushi (it seemed to a popular ordering choice, from what I could see). read more

I got the chicken Al pastor quesadilla. It was a good portion and it was very good too. It came with pico de gallo and sour cream. The service was great, she was very nice and for our food fast. They also had a live band playing inside. They have a lot of indoor seating and some outside seating too. read more

The food here is great. I had the B.L.T.C sandwich which i thought was pretty good, not too dry. The chips it came with were a little hard but still good. The burrito was So Good! The melted cheese on top is a little messy ( me in the photo lol) but so so good. A little pricey but the vibe is worth it. read more

I came here for lunch before heading to beach. It was perfect that we were able to get right in and sat on the boardwalk. The staff was friendly but service was a little slow. However didn't bother me so much since we were enjoying the scenery of being on/off the beach. We ordered some apps and I had pork roll egg and cheese which was sub par. The pork roll taste as if it was bad and or possibly that it was grilled on same griddle with leftover greases. I did not enjoy the stable of NJ's breakfast meat at this spot at all. I wouldn't say I won't come back because their menu was so big that I want to try other items. Also I loved the fact that they had a live band playing inside read more

This place used to be great and I was a local regular. No more; there's new menu , my favorites are gone and the new dishes are absolutely tasteless. I don't now how they expect to survive the winter when the locals stop frequenting the place. The locale and atmosphere is still there but the quality of the dishes has sharply declined. read more

A friend and I visited this establishment a few days ago. Let me start by saying the food was very good. We ordered some sushi rolls and the buffalo cauliflower. Both were yummy! I also had the white sangria and that was also good. The waitress was sweet. The problem was that the service was soooooo slow !! We easily waited 45 minutes for our food to be brought out. There was a hair in my friends wine glass. We were comped for the hair though. So that was well done. We also went during happy hour and there were only two choices in wine. And only red sangria offered because that's all that was opened at the time. Ok. Usually you'll have a red choice and a white choice for happy hour. This restaurant is only 2 months old. They have potential. hopefully they get the service speed under control as I'm seeing quite a few reviews mentioning this. read more

The best thing was our Server Jake. He was upbeat, profsssional with a great personality. The menu was nice, the food was good. I would say 14.00 for a children's meal is high, but costs have certainly gone up for all restaurant businesses. Sitting outside is nice, so mention that request when you make reservation. Also, Abby at the hostess stand was very nice. We'll be back! Thanks Jake. read more

Stopped here before a show at the Stone Pony Summer Stage. It was our first time since the business changed names. The new menu was really interesting- a combination of sushi, Mexican and American dishes. I was pleasantly surprised to see that a lot of the staff remains the same- they've always been friendly, helpful and full of great suggestions. Nothing in terms of service has changed- food was fresh, delicious and came out relatively quickly despite them being busy. Lots of fresh air, even if you're not seated at their outside patio. I can't say enough amazing things about the Chicken Spring Rolls!! Flavorful but not overwhelming, crispy, and easily shared. The quesadilla comes with fresh veggies (you can also add proteins), loaded with cheese, and is pretty filling! Fun fact: you can order the Lobster Mac & Cheese without lobster (if that's not your jam)- it's sooooo good! Looking forward to returning here to try the tacos and the short rib! read more

First time here, (after it recently re-opened)- and it was quite good! Our server, Libby, was very sweet, quick and attentive. The food (burgers, chips) was fresh & cooked perfectly, and the margaritas were phenomenal! We were lucky enough to have been there today on a beautiful, sunny day, and it was (mercifully) not that crowded. Good day all around!! read more

Picked this place because they had reservations available for the holiday week. We got there early and grabbed a drink at the bar. I would not recommend getting any wine as it was almost double the price for a glass as it would be at a normal restaurant. The bar service wasn't great. It was pretty empty yet we still waited about 10 minutes before any of the bartenders even acknowledged us. Once we got our table, the food was ok, but not great. We were a party of 4 but they only gave us 2 menus. I got a sushi roll which was good. But others in my party got the tacos and they were overcooked and dry. The waitress was fine. Overall, it was fine but not great. read more

decided to stop here to have dinner and drinks on the boardwalk. very happy we did! ambiance was nice, right on the boardwalk with view of the beach. service was a bit slow, but it was very busy, so understandable. either way, the food was amazing! very fresh and tasted soooo good. i absolutely loved my atlantic salmon and shark bite drink. the coconut rice was also delicious as were the plantains on the side. there was so much on the menu it was hard to decide. i will definitely be back to check out more of the menu! food was pricey but as expected for the boardwalk. at least it was worth it. read more

Sat outside and service was excellent. 2 sushi dishes and a salad. All dishes good ! The Dragon and spicy tuna was fresh with good protein to rice ratios. Will return ! read more

Customer service was bad, food was bad, paid a lot for NOTHING. The only "good" thing is you have the beach as your view.

Menu isn't as good as old restaurant (Langosta) has a sold out feel, and over priced fried food cause of location.

Not sure about these bad reviews because we had an amazing experience! We stumbled on this place and had the fish tacos, the steak quesadilla, the fidelity roll, and a couple of drinks. It was all delicious! Service was great, nice and attentive staff. Our drinks came out less than 5 minutes after we ordered them and the food very shortly after that! I also loved the music they played, so great. Will be back! read more

Went here on a Friday night and had a wonderful evening out with friends. Warm and welcoming atmosphere and everything we had was very good. Thank you to the bartender, Erin, for turning us on to her favorite drink, which was like a creamy Mai Tai. So so good! Our waiter, Matt, was awesome and had some great recommendations. For appetizers we had the Tiger Roll, a Spicy Tuna Roll, and the Chicken Spring Rolls. All were delicious. For entrees our group had a variety of the tacos (steak, tuna and shrimp) and I had the Tuna Chop Salad. The tuna was very fresh and cooked perfectly (sesame crusted and seared rare). The light dressing on the salad below was delicious with the tuna. All who had the tacos also had nothing but good things to say. Prices were reasonable, service was a little slow but good, and for the last 1/2 hour we were there we got to listen to a great band. They have seats inside and on the boardwalk outside. I always liked Langosta Lounge but thought it was a bit pretentious. The Break has a much nicer vibe than Langosta Lounge did, and a great menu with awesome drinks. We will definitely be going back! read more

I recently visited The Break, and I had the pleasure of being served by the wonderful Katelyn. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure that our dining experience was top-notch. The decor was both modern and inviting, with a color scheme that perfectly captured the essence of the nearby coast. The open floor plan was perfect for enjoying the beautiful view while dining. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing dining experience.The food was also absolutely delicious - every dish we ordered was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. I especially loved the vegetarian tacos. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Thank you, Katelyn for an amazing meal! read more

I guess I should have expected the prices based on location, but even $30 for a burrito is steep -- and I live in NYC. Two different draft beers were out, service was slow despite the fact that it wasn't busy, we had to ask 3 different people to get our table napkins and cutlery, and they added extra charge to use a credit card (which isn't communicated up front). Food and portions were good. Convenient spot when you're on the beach but I wish I'd just gone to a food stand on the boardwalk because even that was more affordable than this place. read more

Love this place! Tuna here is super fresh & love the mix of sushi & Mexican food. This yelp listing should have more pics, hype & branding because this place is super awesome! I been to parts of Southern California beach's like clockwork in my life & this place transports me there has that southern Cali vibe love it. I wish they had carton & few more local beer options on tap but not a deal breaker. I felt we really got our moneys worth here, the sushi rolls are a great large size, I honestly like their sushi better than TAKA. Anyway cheers well done & awesome menu, food, staff, atmosphere! read more

Meh. The only good thing I can say about the place is it's a great location right on the AP Boardwalk. I was hoping since Deal Lake Bar and Co took over that the food and service would have improved from Langosta. Sadly they have not. It's overpriced for underwhelming, under seasoned food. read more
