Luv the food and there many choices , service and ambiance also are great . Take the time to stop in you will be glad you did .

I saw some bad reviews and was nervous. But the second we walked in, it was the perfect intimate romantic setting for us! We were seated at a quiet section with candle lit ambiance making it feel amazingly special. Our server Joe was such a doll and a sweetheart! He was full of whit and very sassy in the best way! Our food was amazingly cooked and we loved it! Definitely a new favorite spot of ours! read more

We were 3 friends having dinner here. With our reservation, we were seated immediately. It's very pretty in here with exotic flowers sitting on a table nearby. We didn't have drinks this particular evening but the dinners we ordered were excellent. What I have noticed over the years is that the fish menu options have increased and now I truly believe this is a fish restaurant. I never had red fish before and it was wonderful. They also offered grouper, shellfish, cod, snapper, flounder, salmon and others. We were all very pleased and I'm sure it will be less time between frequency on our parts. read more

Bonefish Grill - Lovely dinner with friends at Bonefish Grill in Manalapan - Seafood Near Me - Manalapan, New Jersey

Been going to the Manalapan Bonefish Grill for many years always sitting at the bar. Prices have risen and the food though good is nothing exceptional. Old favorites of mine which I loved like The lobster grilled cheese and grilled tuna no longer are available, and the happy hour specials are less appealing. The rewards program has also lessened in value. The bartender/servers behind the bar are young and well meaning but lack the professionalism of Sissie who was there for many years. We miss her read more

I always get a good meal there. The prices are very reasonable. The service is always good too. I enjoy their pomegranate martini . So good for people who don't want a really strong drink. read more

Hi. We are longtime customers. Corporate This is for you!!!! Bring back broccoli and sweet potato mash! We were extremely disappointed. Spinach was watery and flat. Get it off the menu! Service was great. Rachel and managerial staff superb, but menu is up to corporate and it was not up to par! Fix immediately read more

Took my parents here for their first time and they loved it! We ordered a ton of food which we finished for the most part. I ended up taking most of my entree home as we ordered so much appetizer, I was already full when the entree came. We started off with a few bar bites: calamari, Alaskan cod sliders, and wagyu beef sliders. Both of the calamari and Alaskan cod sliders were made to perfection. Crispy and the calamari dipping sauce was the best. We all right the wagyu beef sliders was a bit too greasy. Next we ordered a bang bang shrimp as this specialty dish we just had to have our parents try. They both loved this one the best. The spicy sauce really made it stand out. We also ordered the crab cakes, delicately made with lumps of crab to its entirety. Definitely fresh crab meat and not out of the can! Finally, onto the entrees, we ordered the Alaskan cod fish and chips, the sirloin steak with garlic mash potatoes and spinach, and the blackened baja fish tacos with mango salsa with a side of spinach. The Alaskan cod fish and chips were a bit hit. Can't go wrong with this! The sirloin steak wad very tough and chewy. My mom had ordered it medium rare but I think it was a bit too rare. After taking the rest home and reheating it in the microwave, it came out much better. Definitely order a medium if you go with the sirloin. The fish tacos were just ok. It could of had a bit more mango salsa on top as the one taco that didn't have enough was a bit too dry. Overall, great experience. It was very packed on a Saturday night so come early or reserve your table. read more

Banging shrimp app always tasty ! Shrimp tacos with mango slaw is my favorite to order. Large Chilean sea bass with a side of mango topping was sooooo good and also tried a lemon butter sauce also. The "large " sea bass piece was very tiny. We were Wondering what the small piece looks like. We also ordered the Brussels sprouts that we enjoyed. We had an adorable waitress Sam who was extremely attentive and shared with us her favorites on the menu. read more

My wife, and I were extremely pleased with the our recent experience at Bonefish grill I Manalapen. We showed up with a party of 6 and they were able to seat us fairly quickly for a busy Saturday night. Our waiter was extremely friendly and attentive, and was able to accommodate all your requests with no problems. I also cant say enough about the food. Everyone enjoyed their meals and were extremely satisfied with the portions. I definitely recommend the muscles and the rainbow trout. read more

Just left and sat at the bar. Had a terrible experience. Bartender is clearly not trained properly. Puts his fingers on the top of the straw, no napkin under the glass, martinis tasted like juice ) no alcohol and did not frost the glass. I was charged 1 extra time for a drink. Will not be returning here. read more

My dinner tonight was THAT good that i felt compelled to take the time and leave this review. This is hands down one of the best salads i've ever had. They cook the salmon to perfection (i like to ask for a center cut) delicious light dressing. It's phenomenal. Highly recommend. Also, Catherine was our fantastic waitress. read more

Very poor service last night at Bonefish in Manalapan. Waiting time for drink and dinner was unacceptable. Had to ask multiple times for iced tea to be brought to table, then waited over an hour for our meal, with server not bringing our salads until after the meal. On top of that, she said they only had one dressing - for a restaurant, really? If she would have taken some responsibility I would not likely write this review but GenZ servers need to have an understanding of customer service if people are paying for a SERVICE. I would hope Bonefish does a better job training and creating a good dining experience in future. read more

I've never had a negative experience at Bonefish. Service is always fast and incredibly polite. I just had to leave a review today to rave about the new Tuna Poke Bowl. This was out of this world. The combination of the flavorful rice, crisp cucumber, fresh greens, and melt-in-your-mouth tuna really made this dish stand out. I'm hoping they keep it on the menu for as long as possible! Highly recommend! read more

Was hesitant to come here considering the mediocre reviews. Now having eaten there, not sure why. The food was delicious. My mom had the lobster tail and crabcake combo. I had the scallops and jumbo shrimp skewer. Both with spinach and whipped potatoes sides. Everything was delish. The potatoes are addictive. Server was very nice and accommodating. Sat outdoors with heatlamps overhead. Will be back. read more

Bonefish Grill is my favourite restaurant around New Jersey. Their standout items are their red sangrias, bang bang shrimp, and their wagyu beef potstickers in my opinion. Everything from appetizers to entrees are always hot and fresh when served, and is always cooked to perfection. They value their customers and are always willing to make things better. I always get their shrimp pad Thai, but they went a little heavy-handed on the sauce once. They made sure to take it back and have their chef correct it and were so incredibly kind. Could not think of anything bad to say about this place, I definitely do recommend checking it out! read more

It's hard to go wrong at Bonefish, and I've always enjoyed my meals here. The atmosphere is classy without being pretentious; they have a good bar, and you can get a great selection of seafood. The ambiance is nice with dark wood and eye-catching decorations. The last time I was here I decided to buck the trend and try the Lobster Roll, which is on their seasonal menu, and it didn't disappoint. At the end of the day, when I want something a little less mainstream, Bonefish hits the spot. read more

Bonefish Grill - Lobster Roll - Seafood Near Me - Manalapan, New Jersey

Complimentary bread and oil. Delicious. The bread seemed to be freshly baked. The texture was representative of the textures of a sour dough bread. Bang bang shrimp. The succulent shrimp shined with a lovely, light and crisp coating paired with a creamy, tasty sauce. I got the sauce on the side. Cold water lobster tail. Yukon potatoes were the best part of the dish --crunchy on the outside, moist and fluffy on the inside. We only got 4 little ones though. Snow peas were wayyy too greasy. Lobster tail was mediocre; it was almost overcooked, so the texture was a little too tough. The flavor was decent; it went well with the melted butter. I wish it was juicy. Strawberry shortcake. The shortcake was not great, but still edible. They get points for providing plenty of fresh strawberries. Service was excellent. Our waiter was very quick to service us but he forgot one of our orders and some requested lemon slices. But when we reminded him, he recovered by bringing our orders shortly after. I still think service was great because our food came out fast. We told him we were planning on watching a movie later and he gladly stated that he would speed up dinner for us. I would say he accomplished that. read more

The martini was terrible; the stake was bad, but the lobster tail was ok. I will not come back

In a few words: the service is better than the very reasonably priced food. Everything we ordered looked good and tasted pretty well, but was too salty for my taste, especially the sides. Bang bang shrimp was spicy for only one bang. Food: 3 stars Service: 5 stars read more

If I can give this place zero rate, I will. We stayed for half an hour Nobody came to serve us or even welcomed us. I decided to leave. Before I left I reported that to the manager. Imagine what was his response : he doesn't care. read more

Bonefish grill is good as far as the seafood, not the sides. We started with the bang bang shrimp which we love, be prepared to drink lots of water if you cant handle spicy food. The atlantic salmon was very fresh and the mango salsa was good as well. The sides were alright which I expected. The potatoes au gratin was more like velveta macaroni and cheese except it was potatoes with a few soggy breadcrumbs, i would suggest a different side. The spinach was bland... I come here about once a year, its definitely worth a try and they have a good menu selection. read more

Bonefish is one of my favorite places to eat. Since the Middletown location shut down (which I still can't figure out why!) we thought we would try Manalapan location. Never again! This place was ridiculous. The hostesses at check in were rude. They told us 50 minutes for the two of us. But I watched as 4 other parties were seated before us but come in after us. I guess it's "who you know" at this location. After finally being seated the waitress took our order but didn't come back once. (She was too busy running around cleaning other tables so more people could be seated at her tables) typically the manager comes over and says "hello" and "how was everything" not in this location! The server came back just to drop the check. The only good thing about our visit was the food, it came out hot and it was delicious. The coffee was served lukewarm. Not coming back to this location ever! read more

I ordered the "new" Colby salad, which in the past was amazing. This was ordered today for me & my son. We were so disappointed. There was not enough dressing, very little avocado, mango & blue cheese. It was just thrown together. Not sure whoever the person was that prepared it was looking for short cuts. Will never order it again! read more

I'm diving back into my roots today. I stopped for lunch & took a break from Uber driving. I was undecided where to stop & what I wanted until I saw Bonefish Grill. While looking at the menu, the Island Bowl popped out at me from the lunch menu. Every possible texture & flavor is in this dish. The rice noodles have a slight bite to them, a little bit more than al dente. For added crunch, there are Chinese egg noodles that offer a texture difference while shredded carrots & diced mango not only brighten the dish but give it a sweet flavor. Another level of sweetness with a tiny kick is the sweet, spicy chili sauce. The seared sesame tuna gives this dish the salted yet toasty element from the sesame seed crust. The only thing I would say doesn't belong in this dish are the mixed greens. I find myself picking around them to get to the other delicious elements of the dish. read more

If you want food poisoning this is the place to go. Went to bonefish on Thursday night only to be greeted with an entree that included fried shrimp that were expired! Not only did they taste off, but the managers wouldn't even acknowledge it! Why eat here if you're going to get sick!? Better off at Applebees or Wawa. Simply put. read more

Food is like higher quality fast food. Gotta say the pictures of the meals on the website look nothing like what is served.

My daughter and I went last night for dinner. We ordered the mixed grill for two. One shared appetizer-2 salads-3 sides And a combo of fish and steak. Everything was delicious. Plenty of food. The service was great! I highly recommend this restaurant!! read more

Went Bonefish grill for a dinner very nice setting sat in a booth food was very good and exactly made what was ordered, however the waitress was least caring about removing used dishes from table serving main course without clearing salad dishes and not refilling water only removing after being prompted by myself very annoying.I just found they do not employ a server to clean or refill water. It is little things that make a dinner pleasant and comfortable and that extra touch was not present. read more

Sadly I had a horrible meal here the other day Ordered the ceviche app because I had it before at another location and loved it but this time it tasted like they took over cooked shrimp and mixed it with lime and cilantro. Pretty sure that's exactly how it was made. Then I had the bacon wrapped scallops app as an entree and they were way over cooked and while I hate to use the word "disgusting" it's the only word that comes to mind. Honestly I don't know how they felt comfortable serving the food they brought to us and had I not been with a group of people I would've spoken up but I didn't want to spoil the evening. read more

This review is for the great service. As explained in my photos, they messed up my order and I am usually one that hates to complain but I had to, otherwise I spent a lot of money for a dinner that didn't satisfy me or my family. The price is so so expensive and I don't recommend this place if you want some good seafood or meat because it is still a chain. Chains usually only worry about the money they make and have the workers do all the work for them. The manager however deserves a raise. That guy was amazing. read more

Wow! What happened to this place? The local Bonefish went down hill fast. We returned for the first time since COVID last nite. My wife pointed out that there was something off on every item brought to the table. Cocktails served with flat carbonated beverage, food not served hot, fish overcooked, crab cakes were a ball of mush. The lemon butter sauce tasted "fake". I do have to say that service was good, we were put off when we complained about the flat cocktail, our server James, said, "I could bring you another, but it's coming from the same tap so it's going to me flat too". While I appreciate his honesty, there is something going on behind the scenes that had our waiter "step out of character". What I noticed that there was no managers circling the restaurant asking if everything was to our expectations. Perhaps a cost cutting measure but something I always appreciated that made this chain restaurant a cut above the rest. I'm not rushing back, sorry! read more

I am usually here to get a drink before I go back home, but the food I purchase here is decent or a miss. I usually get the mule and a random appetizers like the Bang Bang Shrimp or the Mussels Josephine. The mule is quite refreshing, but sometimes it get a little sweet for my taste few times. The Bang Bang Shrimp is more like a filler for me, it is probably use fried shrimp coated with spicy mayo. The Mussel Josephine is honestly just mussel bathed in butter, which is delightful. Unfortunately sometime the mussels are not fresh and dried up, which helps me kill my buzz after my mule real quick. read more

I'll say. it up front: I don't like chain restaurants. Eating here reminded me why. Cookie-cutter corporate decor, located next to a big box appliance store. College-age kids who work there until they start their real lives, not career wait staff. Small corporate menu. Portion sizes calculated to the fraction of an ounce. Obnoxious music playing too loudly, but not loudly enough to drown out the screaming and coughing little children who are numerous. People streaming back and forth past the table. Not an enjoyable dining experience. You could have a table outside and look out on the scenic parking lot, breathe the aroma of exhausts and enjoy the sound of commuter buses and trucks on beautiful Route 9. Get the picture? I couldn't wait to finish and leave, which didn't take too long, considering the portion size. I had a soft-shell crab. I didn't know it was legal to keep ones that small. If not for the crabcake stuffing, there would have been no meat on it at all. The mediocre sauce on the side would hardly have filled a thimble. When I have soft-shell crab at good seafood restaurants they give 2 or even 3 for a portion, if they are that small. I have eaten at 3 other BFG's, but somehow this one really turned me off. I'm still hoping to get a good seafood restaurant in this area some day. BFG isn't it. Update 1/8/17: I went for takeout, since I got a gift card. (I would never spend my own money in this place.) Got their fried Alaskan cod fish and chips. When you peel away the big mass of greasy batter, there is a skinny little strip of fish inside, which might indeed be cod. If they labelled it honestly, it would be "fried dough with a bit of some kind of fish in it." It was supposed to come with malt vinegar, but there was lemon and some tartar sauce instead. The fries were ok. It wasn't the worst I have ever had, but certainly not the best. read more

Let me state that I'm being generous with the 3 stars. Let me start with the good. Place is nicely done inside and our server was very good. Was attentive and did his job well. On to the food. The app bang bang shrimp came out quickly and was pretty tasty. The dinner is another story. First of all, the menu seems very limited to me from what i remember in the past. It has been a few years since I've been to Bonefish and I found the selections here rather disappointing. for a place that is called "Bonefish Grill" you would think the menu would lean a little more to the seafood side. Not the case. There is a section where you can order various types of fish that are wood grilled and you select a sauce from the choices on the menu. Truthfully, I wasn't crazy about any of the sauces so I tried to play it safe with mango salsa on the side. I had the grouper and with or without the sauce, I wasn't thrilled with it. It came with some chick pea side which had a strange taste and the steamed vegetables were just not happening!! My son had the same thing with the pan asian sauce and basically felt the same about it. My wife had the tilapia which was much better than what we had, but still nothing you would go running back to have. They do give you warm bread and oil for dipping which was pretty good. The dessert was a macadamia nut brownie with ice cream . Not bad. I mean how the hell can you screw up a brownie and ice cream??? While it was far from terrible, we wont be running back any time soon. This just wasn't the Bonefish we remember from a few years ago. read more
