    Nardi's is our go to place with friends visiting or just a quick bite. Prices are reasonable , food is very good and the atmosphere is great. Friendly staff and customers. I recommend Nardi's all the time. When we go for late night I don't mind the cover charge because I know the bus is available. It's great to see an island institution still keeping it real.

    Chicken Florentine sandwich.  My sister said it was delicious

    Came here for dinner with my family during off hours. Well we were back the next day for take our back to Long Island. Food is so delicious. The staff are funny and attentive. They have the electronic lotto machines. I won 10$. I'll be a staple come the summer. Great food, great service good vibes!!!!!

    Fried chicken samich. Tzatziki and pickles are practically hidden by the massive amount of chicken !!

    In the winter they get a solid crowd to come out on a Friday happy hour which has a legit $9 and under list of bar favorites. The guy on acoustic guitar was great.. didn't catch his name but played those soft rock hits from the 70s 80s 90s and more. 98.3 WMGQ would have been proud. It got late so I caved and got some food. Fried Chicken samich with tzatziki and pickles was awesome and tremendous. Get that , any of their tacos and a bowl of chili with raw onions on top.

    No trip to Long Beach Island can be complete without hammering back a few cold ones at this classic trapped-in-the-50's-style watereing hole.

One I received my plate it was very obvious it was from frozen. Part of the tuna was cooked through and part of it was partially rare and the texture was not from fresh. I could also tell also by the coating which was supposed to be blackened was pre made. For the price of the plate I would expect better than upscale diner food which is the category I would put it under.

There is an indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is very nice and well spaced out. We sat outdoor, but I could see indoor. The layout looked very nice and pleasant older style decor. The server was very knowledgeable, friendly, and just the right amount of attention not to bother us, but not to leave us at any moment waiting It is a BYOB which we didn't know. They do have some wine you can buy by the bottle we bought a bottle. It was OK. The food overall we found to be very good every step of the way the bread that they gave us to first starter was good then the appetizers. My daughter had the Barada salad, which was very good. I had tuna bites. They were excellent. For our main course, I had Cory's combo which is a seafood combo of flounder, scallops, crabcake, and shrimp. All of these I found to be very good. The crabcake in particular was full of lump crab, and not too much of the filler. It was very well done. My daughter had the black and prime rib with baked potato. It was excellent perfectly cooked nice and tender flavorful. My wife had the fillet which she frequently orders when we go out to dinner, this one did not disappoint the texture the way it was cooked the flavoring. The sides were all excellent. We were very happy with this last minute decision and hope you find it to be the same! Good luck. I very rarely give five stars, but had a hard time finding a reason not to. Good job.

We also had scrambled eggs, a biscuit, hash browns and a lox bagel. The rest of the food was good but not stand-out like the pancakes. They forgot my order of bacon and then charged us for it, but they removed it from the bill when I informed them. They do not allow strollers inside. They said we could either leave the stroller on the porch or sit outside, so we chose to sit outside. It was a nice day anyways and they have umbrellas over the tables for shade. I did think it was weird that no strollers are allowed. Haven't seen that before and it didn't feel very baby-friendly. Overall, I'd still recommend LBI table.

The vibe is super chill and relaxed and everyone was very friendly to us from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. They also have a great outdoor backyard area! I would have loved to sit out there if it wasn't 100 degrees the day we went! We will certainly be back for that alone. The menu is super enticing. We literally wanted to order one of everything but finally settled on the tuna poke and the broiled seafood platter with the chowder fries. The tuna was fresh and flavorful and a very generous portion. The broiled seafood platter was the star of the show for us. I loved getting to sample a little bit of everything. The crab cake and the scallops were the standouts for me. I could have eaten a platter of those alone. And don't even get me started on the chowder fries. Fresh hot fries with a mound of clam chowder on top with pieces of bacon. Literally what's not to like? The chowder here is one of my favorites. It's made with pork roll and long hots - a true Jersey chowder and a more unique take on the traditional. Terrace Tavern also has a fantastic cocktail menu. There's a huge variety and truly something for everyone. The Pink Flamingo was excellent - fresh watermelon juice, basil, st Germaine, and Prosecco. It was the perfect summer drink on a hot day. We will definitely be returning to try some more of the menu!

The staff were rushed and rude and even the customers seemed unwelcoming. More recently, just a couple months ago, I went against. Figured it's been years and maybe I just had an odd bad experience. This new visit was just as bad. The person taking my order again seems rude, as if me eating there was an inconvenience to her summer vacation. As we waited for food I asked for a cup for water which they seemed surprised by. Upon getting my water another customer was annoyed since they apparently also asked for water and it wasn't clear who the water was for. The staff seems annoyed by both of us. When the food came, it was bland at best. My hot honey chicken waffle looked like no effort was take. The waffle looked like it was warmed up in a toaster. The chicken wasn't much better. I suspect it was a restaurant demo meal that they just warm up. The hot honey...none. Just a generic breakfast syrup. I asked if they had hot honey but the staff looked confused by the question. Apparently they haven't had hot honey for weeks yet they still had it on the menu. I had to settle for a hot sauce that they probably use on chicken wings...which also wasn't that great. Bad ambiance. Bad customer service. Terrible food. Of the places to eat o n the island, this is easily my least favorite.

Listen, before I get into this review, dear reader, you must know I'm someone who loves salt. I'll scarf down a whole bag of snyder's pretzel pieces (nearly 100% of your daily sodium value) at once! I love it so much that I won't be shocked if it's a problem by the time I get to my own "60th" birthday. Never in my life did I expect the jump scare of a salad so salty it made me nearly choke. My mother got the shredded cabbage salad. All of us had a bite. It was like mainlining Morton right from the blue container--a rush of adrenaline, a shock to the system. A stomach ache. My mother sent it back. I tried to enjoy my Caesar salad and my sister-in-law tried to enjoy her green salad, knowing hypertension is a slightly better fate than being branded a 30-something New Jersey Karen during peak vacation season. But it was so bad that surely it had to be mistake and they didn't know! It wasn't like this other times we were here. We should do the kind thing to tell them. So we made the mistake of telling the manager. And this is the reason I'm coming out of Yelp retirement to write this review. The manager alleged we were LYING, saying it was "quite odd" all three of us wanted to return our uneaten salads--send in Sherlock Holmes! We've got a mystery on our hands. They didn't eat their dinner because it made them feel sick. When I asked if she seriously just accused us of lying, she walked back and said "well, the chef said this is not a mistake. This is exactly how it should taste. And maybe every restaurant is not for every person." Quite honestly, I have never been to a restaurant before where I couldn't eat my meal--and then was scolded about it! I can't even recall a time I have sent food back. And after reading the reviews, it's confirmed I'm not alone. I will say, they did take the salads off the bill, and the server (not the manager) was lovely. I gave it one star because--in between contemplating a $45 kids meal--there was enough salt in the food to make my one year old nephew finally speak. Guess what he asked for? "Water"
