    Grilled Rib Eye Steak
    London E.

    I had my birthday dinner there last night and the food and the service was AMAZING! The restaurant is small but quaint and intimate. The vibe is cozy & the service was excellent. My family and I had had the fresh bluepoint oysters as an appetizer and they were phenomenal! I had the lobster bisque soup and Greek salad to start, and pictured below are all of our various main dishes. My Chilean sea bass was good, but the chickpea/ mushroom fushion was really odd and I could've done without that part of the dish since it came with sautéed spinach and potatoes. Overall, the service was excellent and I do really recommend this restaurant if you're in Westfield NJ and looking for a great seafood spot.

    Branzini

    Excellent meal at this long-time Westfield spot. It's a storefront restaurant, with a dining room to the left, and one in the rear, with the kitchen central. BYOB so don't forget to bring your favorite wine. As the name would suggest, the menu is heavy on seafood, although there are a few options for the landlubber. We had the advantage of visiting with a couple who have been coming to Limani for years and are on a first-name basis with the team. Needless to say service is impressive. Warm bread is served immediately, with olive oil for dipping. Crusty, fresh bread and nicely seasoned oil - the perfect start. I opted for one of the specials, Bronzini. I chose the de-boned version. The fish was perfect. Crisp skin on the outside, tender and juicy flesh on the inside. A wonderful medley of spices enhanced the sweet, flaky white fish. It's served with roasted potatoes cut into chunky logs and wonderfully garlicky sautéed escarole. Mash up those potatoes to soak up the white wine sauce and juices from the escarole. Yaaaas! Others ordered crab cakes. 4 large cakes to the order, adorned with scrumptious remoulade sauce, with a mound of garlic mashed potatoes, and that sautéed escarole. No filler in these crab cakes, it's all crab - encrusted and fried to a brown crispy perfection on the outside with chunks of succulent crab on the inside. To celebrate a birthday at the table, the house comped us small slices of baklava. Delicious filo layered with chopped nuts and honey. Their prep here isn't too much honey, so the result is both sweet and tart. It's a disappointment that I don't like closer to Westfield - this is the kind of place to return to again and again, to experience everything on the menu. Go! You'll LOVE it.

    Whole grilled pink snapper. 2.6lbs

    This Greek restaurant is top notch. A great byob with excellent selection of fresh seafood prepared in a variety of ways. I went with one of the specials of the night, pink snapper ( it wasn't cheap but you have to just splurge once in a while.) I had it grilled whole which was just perfect. This was exactly what I was hoping for when I ordered it. The restaurant itself is a bit noisy but I was eating during prime dinner hour on a Saturday but it was not overwhelming. My server Alex was fantastic and very personable and attentive and always made sure to check if the table needed anything. I def look forward to coming back again.

    An amazing experience. We are in town for the first time in over 30 years. Our hotel was a block away from this restaurant. From the clam chowder to the escargot to the coconut shrimp to the whole pink snapper to the delicious sorbet were terrific. The owner took time to make us feel very special. Certainly the highlight of our trip. GO HERE! You will not be disappointed I promise.

    Lobster Bisque Soup
    Mary M.

    First of all, this restaurant DOES NOT have a bar. They have a wine list, but you are able to bring your own liquor (hard liquor, beer, and/or wine). My mom and I shared a bottle of sangria, AND we were able to take it to go when it wasn't finished. It came with fruit on the time and a pitcher of ice. It was BOMB.com! I started with some lobster bisque. DELICIOUS! This was so good that my mom got her some to-go. Nice pieces of lobster and the soup itself was radiant in flavor! The caesar salad was pretty good but the croutons were salty. Sans the croutons and it's everything you need it to be and it doesn't need any additional dressing to go with it. My mom also ordered the clams casino and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I ended up getting the stuffed shrimp. The shrimp was stuffed with real crab meat almost like crab cakes without filler. I am going to get this EVERY TIME I come here. The mashed potatoes tasted like they may have been instant but I would get them again or possible sub them out. I like the vegetables, also. It was something different! The restaurant looks so cute on the inside. My mom had seen it from the train and the back makes it look like a regular0degular restaurant but it's quaint and smells wonderfully when you enter the building. We were pleasantly suprised. I will be back when I'm in NJ.

    Mid-week specials 6/26/24

    It's been awhile ... A few months to be exact. Our community has been doing a dinner club for about 3 years now. We were a group of 14 for our Wednesday night get together. Mid week they have a specials menu that is 3 courses. This includes appetizers, salad and your main course for $59. For our apps, she had an eggplant & hummus dip that is a little spicy. I chose the zuppa Di Mussels. Next up, we both chose that watermelon salad. Our main courses were the grilled ribeye for her cooked medium rare and I chose those warm lobster rolls. We actually split the key lime tart for our dessert ( which is extra) along with a cappuccino. In our group 10 of the 14 ordered off the specials menu. One that didn't ordered the soft shell crabs and she was very happy. Service by Alex was excellent. For parking, they have a lot right across the street that is free after 6 PM. Of some note, they are BYOB, but have a small wine fridge in the back of the restaurant. Cost per person with a tip about $80. As always... Enjoy:) USC#19

    Went on a Wednesday midday. The (I assume) owner, was very pleasant, gave us each a complementary flute of wine when I said I had brought my mother out for a birthday lunch. We also got a complementary cup of the lobster bisque which was delicious. We both ordered the London broil. It was quite pricey, had good flavor and good quality seafood but I expected a bit more for the price. Overall, good food and great service. Would recommend.

    seared scallops over sun-dried fig, marsala, and caramelized apple
    Michael K.

    Had the shrimp cocktail ($19) for four large but dried-out cocktail shrimp. Also, crab cakes ($29) for two tiny 2" crab cakes which tasted like paste and were served lukewarm. Don't order this. Entrées were the seared scallops over sun-dried fig, marsala, and caramelized apple ($44), five nicely-cooked scallops with a tasty fruit compote. However, the sautéed garlic spinach accompaniment was slimy and drowning in oil, and the steamed carrots were cooked to death. Did not eat. Also had the grilled swordfish with chili-lime sauce ($34). The fish was good but the mashed potatoes on the side were unseasoned, desperately needing salt, and soupy, like instant mashed potatoes. Did not eat. None of the desserts are made in house. Had a slice of N.Y. cheesecake ($10) which tasted like frozen from the supermarket, and not Junior's. The decaf cappuccino was watery with little coffee flavor. Would I come back? I don't think so, this mediocre BYOB meal for two was over $150, plus tip.

    Grilled Oysters with Basil, Garlic and Pecorino Pesto
    Michael E.

    I'm a little late in posting this review, so some of the dishes we had were seasonal specials and might not be available now (sorry). It's been a few years since I visited the Limani Seafood Grill in Westfield, and I was happy to see that the restaurant has expanded its footprint, which was originally a bit tight. Now, while not a huge space, there are more tables and there's adequate room between them. Clearly, the restaurant is still a popular draw, as every table was filled. Our group started the meal with a Classic Caesar Salad and the Grilled Oysters. The salad was perfectly serviceable, but not particularly special. The Grilled Oysters on the other hand were outstanding. They were four Long Island Blue Points, that were shucked fresh and oven grilled with basil, garlic and pecorino pesto. If you're a fan of Oysters Rockefeller, you'll love this. For mains we had the Grilled Atlantic Salmon and the Soft-Shell Crabs. The salmon was an ample portion and cooked perfectly. It came with roasted lemon potatoes and sautéed escarole. The soft-shell crabs were an absolute standout. Each order came with two jumbo Maryland crabs, roasted lemon potatoes, sautéed green beans with garlic oil, and a side of chili-lime sauce. The crabs were true jumbos and were available fried or sautéed without flour. We chose the sautéed preparation and were thrilled. The crabs tasted like they had been harvested earlier that day and were delicious. I don't know how they achieved the crisp texture without using flour, but it really allowed the flavor of the crabs to shine. The chili-lime sauce that accompanied the crabs was sweet, citrusy and unexpectedly spicy. I haven't had soft-shell crabs with a sauce like this before, but it was creative and quite good and serving it on the side was the right choice. I regret not taking a picture. For dessert we all shared something called Galaktoboureko (I had to write it down). It's a Greek semolina custard, that's baked in filo dough and covered in a light lemony syrup. It was absolutely fantastic, and I'd definitely order it again. The service throughout the evening was attentive and friendly. Our evening at Limani Seafood Grill was wonderful and we look forward to returning.

    Shrimp stuffed with crab.
    Jeannette M.

    This is our 7 place when celebrating colleagues. We ordered the tomatoes and mozzarella and calamari for apps. For dinner, I ordered the shrimp stuffed with crab, mixed vegetables, and mashed potatoes. It was very good. For dessert, I had the carrot cake. Big slice and great taste. Service was a little off. The waiter forgot to clear plates for apps before bringing out dinner. Someone at the table asked to substitute the vegetables for something else, and they didn't. He had brought out the wrong dessert for me. Everyone is entitled to an off day. It's still a great place to enjoy seafood.

This restaurant looks great. There is a nice counter area to order, a really nice seating area inside and even outdoor seating. Some of the decor makes you feel like you're in a household's kitchen. By the cashier there is a table you can wait at complete with local newspapers. It's very charming. This was my first visit and I ordered my food to go. I had two key dishes. The first was hummus with falafel, which is very standard for me whenever I go to any Mediterranean place. When I opened the take out box at home I was really surprised. Most places give you a good amount of hummus, but here it was basically a thin layer. Kind of like a layer of mayo on a sandwich (maybe a tad thicker). Then on top of the hummus was a huge layer of pickled vegetables and tiny pickles. This was a surprise. I've had hummus orders from a lot of restaurants before and I've *never* seen this on an order before. Then the falafel balls were on top and well...they were really dry and didn't have much flavor. Now, sometimes you can cover that up by just coating the falafel in hummus, but there wasn't enough hummus to do that. The dish was just disappointing all around. The other dish I tried were the Lemon Potatoes. They were good! The lemon flavor was strong and they were cooked well. Not the best example in the area, but they would do in a pinch. At some point I'll give this place another try. Maybe this was a fluke (at least I hope so).

For apps, we decided on the: Hummus - how do you properly judge a Mediterranean restaurant without trying their hummus, and this was creamy, decadent and served with some fresh pita. Grilled Calamari (with roasted red pepper, lemon, evoo, capers, red onions) - very nicely cooked, not rubbery at all Grilled Octopus (with roasted red peppers, fava puree, capers, onions, red wine vinegar, arugula, evoo) - if octopus is on the menu, I'm gonna have it. For my entree, I got the pan-seared scallops with cauliflower puree, quinoa, spinach, heirloom tomato. Loved it. Cooked perfectly, loooved the silky puree...just a solid solid dish. All in all, EVOO definitely deserves to be on the Millburn/Essex shortlist when looking for nicer places to dine out. Can't wait to get back and try some more of their menu!
