We were really impressed by the location. The Food shack is located right on the beach which is the perfect way to enjoy a lunch on a Summer day in Point Pleasant. They have lots of umbrellaed outdoor seating, and some benches in the sun, so there are options for everyone. They also have some indoor seating, and the inside is adorable. We ordered a swiss grilled cheese with tomato on top, and a BLT. Each item came with pickles and a bag of chips. Each item was priced reasonably, especially considering typical Jersey Shore pricing. My grilled cheese was great. The bread/cheese/tomato ratio was perfect. The cheese was gooey, and stayed gooey even as the sandwich cooled. The bread on the grilled cheese was crispy on the outside and still soft and warm on the inside. I didn't know what to expect from a small shack on the beach, especially with something as simple as a grilled cheese, but I really enjoyed it. The BLT also had a gread tomato/bacon/lettuce/mayo ratio and wasn't too greasy. Overall I will definitely be coming back!

Cali Bowl w cherry tomatoes and avocado over hash browns and my choice of eggs HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We were hungry so decided to go for breakfast and coffee unfortunately the coffee was a big miss for us. Watered down, not much flavor and they were out of oat milk which we usually prefer. Luckily they took care of that for us which we appreciated. Now the food. Highly recommend! I got an egg white omelette. They were out of the home fries so substituted a hash brown. One in our party is gluten free so that was a bummer to know the home fries are gluten free and she could have had them if they were in stock. She got a burrito on a gluten free wrap which she loved. We also got breakfasts sandwiches, the bacon was awesome and perfectly well done and the patty melt with a fried egg added on which our friends devoured. They also got it Billy's way with syrup and sriracha which they loved. Definitely would come back. Our server was really sweet too.

The menu is flat out one of the best I've seen in years! So many amazing choices from savory to sweet, creative fun names for everything, outstanding choices, tons of options for every palate.

The pancakes are next level, all of their omelettes I've tried have been dynamite, favorites include the French Onion Omelette, Reef & Beef and Juan in a Million.

Unfortunately, I felt VERY sick almost immediately after eating. I can't say for certain what caused it, but since my dad didn't try my burger and felt fine after his meal, I suspect mine may not have been cooked properly. Despite that, I enjoyed the atmosphere, drinks, and overall experience. I'd definitely give this place another chance, though I'll skip the Mr. Beautiful Burger next time.

Since the original owner sold, the new owners have far exceeded our expectations! How could our favorite spot become even more exceptional? Well, the food is even better than before- pancakes have been perfected, the new fresh squeezed OJ, and even the South west skillet improved with the attention to detail- they have evenly distributed the chorizo in a way that makes every bite balanced and smooth, which was not the case prior! The friendliness of the staff and the owner,specifically, is amazing. They really want you to have a good experience and clearly are passionate about hospitality. They even have a "take one" ticket on their cork board for those who can't afford a meal- someone can just receive. My family will only get our breakfast at Sandy's bc there is no one who has breakfast potatoes that remotely compete, skillets that knock your socks off, a breakfast burrito that is satisfying AND filled with flavor, pancakes that look and taste like heaven, sandwiches that fill and taste flavorful and fresh-- need I say more?! Oh and they will be adding green juices and parfaits!! I am so happy we have our perfect neighborhood spot!

The chicken noodle soup tasted foul--almost as though the soup pot hadn't been properly cleaned between uses. My mother ordered a fruit cup with her meal, but the first thing they brought her was French fries. When they corrected the mistake, they brought out watermelon, pineapple, and banana slices. While the fruit itself would have been fine, the banana was already beginning to brown, which made it look particularly unappetizing. Unfortunately, the problems didn't stop there. The French toast was limp and undercooked, and the French fries were hot on the outside but cold in the middle. The experience was bad enough that we noticed another customer at a table across and diagonally from us take one bite of his burger, put it down, get up, and leave without eating any more. By the time we left, we hadn't been able to eat much of anything. We ended up stopping at McDonald's on the way home because we were still hungry and needed something we could actually eat. I understand that mistakes happen in restaurants, but this was far beyond a single mistake or an off dish. Nearly everything we ordered had a problem, and the overall quality was extremely disappointing. Based on this experience, I would not return.
