Although it wasn't very busy, service upstairs was fairly slow, and several nearby tables also seemed to be waiting a while for food or checks. For drinks, we ordered the Boardwalk Lemonade, which was sweet and refreshing, and their version of an Aperol Spritz, which had a beautiful presentation. My dad's Baked Brie Burger was delicious--the fig jam paired perfectly with it, and the waffle fries were fried to perfection. I ordered the Mr. Beautiful Burger, which tasted great at first. 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.

ONE THING; The loudness of place is RIDICULOUS, the TV volume is so LOUD that my I-watch sent me a warning message. The bartender said it's loud because the game is on.

For my entrée I had the strip steak with Frites. I'm not typically a steak person, but this was amazing. You could literally cut it with a fork. Delicious. My husband had the pan seared scallops and said they were wonderful. Our other friends had fish dishes and said they were top-notch. The desserts were delicious. We had banana Foster, flourless chocolate cake, cheesecake and crème brûlée.Flawless. Chef Bass came over to our table and was so friendly and lovely. After we ate all of this mountain of food, he found out that my husband loves pasta Bolognese. He ran into the kitchen and insisted my husband try some lol it was great. Just a wonderful experience as far as service and delicious food and wonderful caring ownership.

I was looking forward to trying this restaurant, but then things change rapidly…read more Let me tell you my experience, when attempting to pull into valet parking lot being the only one, a patron was trying to get out of lot, I sat there for 15 minutes with the parking attendant doing nothing. Strike 1 Then we entered on time for our 7 o'clock reservation, a young girl checked our reservation and proceeded to go and ask an older woman (I assume in charge) can over to us and said you can wait outside your table is not ready . Funny thing is there was a table for 2 already set. Strike 2 So we went and sat outside, about 5 minutes later two people entered the restaurant and were immediately seated at that empty table Strike 3 Dining is not just food, but customer service is as important. Trust me don't waste you time or money at this place Ralph

This is the first time I've ever been to Shipwreck Grill, which is crazy because I've grown up in…read morethis area. I've always heard good things, and I thought the food stood up to the reputation. The restaurant was packed on a Monday night, which was probably a good sign for what led to a delicious meal. I really enjoyed the roasted oysters topped with yummy breadcrumbs. My daughter enjoyed a sushi appetizer and wedge salad with blackened tuna that she claimed was delicious as well. Our other dinner partner enjoyed his halibut. I really loved the show-stopping, gigantic jumbo lump crab meat risotto. It was very filling, but super delicious. The food was rich and, in some ways, basic, but executed perfectly. I added some of the street corn and that really made things even better get this dish. You won't be disappointed. The atmosphere was busy, if not hectic. Our table was in the middle of the room, next to a large family with little kids. One was seven months old and the other was two. That seemed like a bit much for a dinner with these price points. It's not an inexpensive restaurant and certainly not a family-vibe Houlihan's. We had mixed feelings about the atmosphere, but I kind of thought it was cool--a really pretty building with some rustic charm.

He's beyond attentive, knows the menu inside and out, and clearly takes pride in his craft. His Old Fashioned is the best I've ever had--and I've had them everywhere. The martini is equally impressive, with that perfect cloudy glow that only comes from a flawlessly balanced shake. A phenomenal start to the evening. The food more than lives up to the experience at the bar. Every dish is precisely prepared, beautifully executed, and made with abundant, high-quality ingredients. You can taste the care and consistency in every bite. Without question, Shipwreck Grill is one of the best restaurants in Monmouth County. A true standout and a place I'll return to again and again.
