Customer Reviews
Had a lovely atmosphere and great food. The manager and Rodrigo, a food runner, made the experience better. We only saw our waiter once. Service was subpar for the price. It's definitely a great place to come for good food. Lobster Mac and cheese, turkey club, fish n chips, and crab cake sandwich were very nice.
We had a fabulous experience enjoying the beautiful ocean view and the fresh seafood !!! Started with garlic clams and grilled Buffalo octopus… followed by the lazy lobster scampi and grouper risotto, it was amazing! Very fresh seafood. Highly recommend! Also waiters were extremely friendly. Thank you for an amazing Sunday afternoon experience.
So where do I start? I guess I'll start with, do you see this view? It's unbelievable! The food was great, I highly recommend trying everything, as this was my first experience, I know I'll be coming back. The wait was worth it, we ordered two rum buckets while we waited and enjoyed the beautiful weather and scenery. The rum buckets are awesome! Give them a try. On my next trip I plan on trying the sushi, it looked great. The sushi chefs know how to make a good looking plate. This spot has easily become one of my go-to spots while down at Sandy Hook. Next time I'm about leave the beach, before I pack up and head back to the car, I'm calling ahead and checking the wait time and getting on the list. Do yourself a favor and try this spot.
My sister and I cane here after a day at Sandy Hook, and were looking forward to a good meal. We weren't disappointed. We sat right by the water and had a wonderful waterside view. We started off with cocktails, the mango daiquiri and the blue river, which were very good in liquor strength and size for the low happy hour price. Next, we moved onto stuffed crab and killer oysters for appetizers. We both ordered the Inlet Cafe assortment of grilled seafood. It was very fresh and flavorful. To top it off, we ordered dessert which is reason enough to come here (also for the oysters). The apple tart and smore sundae were sensational, and a marvelous finish to our wonderful meal. Our server, Laura, was friendly and helpful with menu suggestions and drink recommendations. This place had an upbeat
Bartender was awesome. We got to see the menu online before we were seated. The waitress was nice. Food came out fast and hot and fresh. Price point was completely fair.
