Borghi's By The Bay

The food was absolutely amazing. The place is comfortable and cozy. You feel at home and the food is like home cooking from my childhood. The meatballs melt in your mouth. Everything was prepared to perfection. Thank You Dino! You and your staff made my family feel like your family! We can’t wait to come back!!! Even desert was Amazing!!! Thank you!

Borghis offers excellent food and service as a chef owned and operated byob at the shore in Avalon. The food was great. Fresh fish, large portions, and great sauces. Cold bottled water and warm bread is served with the meal and the main courses come with a small house or ceasar salad. There are dinner specials in addition to the printed menu items. The resturant has both indoor and outdoor (covered patio) seating. The resturant is on the smaller side - looks like approximately 10 to 15 tables depending on how they are configured. You can call to make a reservation and they accept credit cards for payment.

My son George was working here during the summer so we met him here for dinner. It was outstanding and a must try if your in the area. The food came out hot and stayed hot not to mention it was delicious. All the desserts were homemade and one was better than the next! Usually don't give ALL 5 Stars but when you deserve it you do. Highly recommended Byob! Tell Dino that George sent you! Dino is the owner and his boys also work there. Top notch family and outstanding restaurant and staff!!!! Thx again for everything.

This place has a lot of charm and the servers and owner are exceptionally welcoming and accommodating and prompt. The owner answers the phone personally when you call - love that. The food has some high and low marks. Salad is nothing fancy and you’re served a bottle of water rather than a glass which is a little bizarre but certainly not unsafe or bad quality I suppose. Just odd. It’s BYOB as many places are in this area- keep that in mind. This place measures up locally, and for a really friendly vibe and pretty good food you should totally come here. It has way less pretension than some other spots nearby and frankly similar quality food - at lower or similar prices. That’s cool and I can appreciate that. It’s not trying to win awards in NYC- different environment here. Not many seat

Absolutely the best! It’s a culinary experience- not just going out to dinner. The chef pays attention to the details and timing and you can tell. Everything I’ve ever had there has been off the charts amazing. Dino and his wife care that the guest experience is top notch. Chef often stops after guests finish eating to check in on their experience. From the cold and fresh salad, warm baked bread, the mouth watering lobster ravioli (that sauce is to die for) to the warm delicious pound cake - with a side of vanilla ice cream - you will be craving that food until you eat it again. A must visit when you’re in this area. John & Melissa
