Came here for an early dinner with my mom! We love wildwood and always heard great things about this place so we decided to check it out! The orange crush was delicious! Their started salad was small and there wasn't much to it. We both got the broiled seafood combo which came with crab meat, four scallops, and three shrimp. You also got two sides! It was the perfect amount of food and it tested very fresh! Will come back! read more

Sunset on the bay is gorgeous and Uries has a phenomenal view but the food is hit and miss - more miss then hit. I had clams steamed in white wine and there was a ton of dry herbs dumped in the dish - amatuer move. The broth had a medicinal taste because of all the dry spice. Fried Calamari was chewy and the marinara that came with the calamari wasn't marinara; it was tomato sauce from a can just opened and poured without any cooking or seasoning. I don't think it even was heated. Hire a quality chef and a good line cook. read more

Abby was the best server ever!! She was so bubbly and sweet and made us feel so welcome. This was our first time in Wildwood and because of her we will definitely be returning! The food was delicious as well. read more

Pretty expensive for the food and the service but overall it was all right. They really could've been more attention paid to our party as it was 12+ people. read more

I was excited to try this place. A little bummer we didn't get an outdoor seat since the weather was perfect but next time maybe. We just did a bunch of appetizers since we didn't want to spend that much time inside. I plan on going back for ayce crabs. Everything was pretty good. read more

Well deserved 5-Star Review for Urie's in Wildwood! Stopped into Urie's in Wildwood and everything was sooo good! Service efficient, Ordered crab balls, a soft pretzel, shrimp cocktail, and bang bang shrimp--and it was all so delicious that we immediately had to order more bang bang shrimp and crab balls. Portions were generous, flavors were spot on, and everything came out fresh and hot. Definitely a must-stop when you're in Wildwood! read more

Food is always pretty good here. Used to love coming for the all you can eat snow crab legs but the price has unfortunately gone up significantly. The most recent visit I got the Seafood Alfredo. The sauce was pretty good and had a fair amount of shrimp, scallops and lobster. My boyfriend had the fried seafood combo which was very filling! He seemed to enjoy it. He got Mac and cheese as one of his sides but was a little disappointed it tasted just like stouffers. I tried their watermelon crush which was a tasty drink. Service was good, not the most upbeat but she took care of us. The atmosphere is always nice because they're right on the water. I'd say it's worth checking out if you're in town. read more

Everything! From the appetizers to the main meal to the alcoholic beverages, everything in my opinion was a major disappointment. It's the second time I went back there and I will not go back over again. read more

Honestly, very disappointed in the food we received, from the appetizers to the main meal. The clams casino wasn't that good, and no bread was given to soak up the juice. My husband got the bang, bang shrimp, there was absolutely no taste to the shrimp , and the shrimp wasn't even spicy. And as far as the steak went, it was overcooked. We got Orange crushes, didn't even taste like any alcohol was in the in the drink, so that was disturbing for 10$ a drink. Overall, the experience was poor, and will NOT BE GOING BACK. read more

Avoid this place at all cost. Over-priced seafood. Waitress has no idea what she is doing. Appetizers came after main entrees. Main entrees were the size of appetizers. See the picture: $45 for 3 pieces of scallops, 2 pieces of shrimps, two bake clams, and one tiny crab cake. read more

Great food. Great customer service. Christian at the bar made sure my food was good and kept refilling my water without Having to be asked.

The other day I took my mom for an early dinner. I ask for real butter for crabs. Which I still do not get we all know that real butter hardens after a certain amount of time and his brother never did.. I even handed the server packets of real butter to melt in a dish. Also, my crabs are very cold. Usually they are warm when you get them out at a restaurant.. our cocktails were water and I hate seasonal restaurants doing this just to save money. We are local residence. We had the worst experience we thought after not showing up for 10 years. There would be a difference, but absolutely no.. I really don't think anybody should go here. Joshua was not a great server at all. Our salad was even raunchy looking. He didn't take anything off the bill didn't care about our complaints.. every time I ask for something it took 20 minutes. He only had two tables. read more

Bottom line... there's nothing wrong with it here. Thankfully we ate during early bird hours for a better price. I went for the fried flounder since it was advertised as local and it tasted fresh enough. People at the table seemed to enjoy the crab cakes. Sides were prepared well and service was attentive and friendly. But I can't say that there's anything special here that would make me want to come back. It was good but not memorable. read more

Urie's Waterfront Restaurant - Fried Filet of Flounder - Seafood Near Me - Wildwood, New Jersey

Great place for the kiddos, arcade games in the front. Huge bar inside across from the arcade, then a huge deck with outdoorsy sitting and another bar. The outdoor seating is covered so even on a rainy day you can enjoy the view. They do have an early bird meal option that comes with 2 sides, salad and rolls. We had a larger party of 8 and we were sat right away outdoors. Waitress had a little mix up with one of our drinks but to be honest I don't think she as old enough to drink so besides that the service was good and she was attentive. Salads, apps, rolls and dinner all came out in a good timeframe and was good. They have a kid menu and highchairs. Downside: Parking lot was a bit crowded as it appears 3 restaurants share the same lot. read more

Me and my fiancée took a trip down the shore and she wanted to stop here for dinner. She's gone here several times with her grandfather, and wanted give my take on it. We were greeted by the staff right way when we walked in. They had an open bar both inside and outside. The view outside was beautiful. When we were seated, our waiter Ben took our orders and made sure we received everything in a timely manner. He was very professional. We both ordered the crab legs special and it was delicious. It was a little on the pricey side, but it was definitely worth the price. They also have an early bird menu if you get there at opening, if you're looking for a good deal. When I come down to Wildwood again, I will definitely come back here again. I recommend it highly. read more

A very chill spot by the pier with an arcade for the kids at the front and bar(s) for adults. Service was wonderful, hardworking servers and attentive hosts, which makes it better. The only reason for the low rating is the taste of the food however, respectfully, I felt like the Mac and cheese was equal or even less than that of Kraft Mac and Cheese. The French fries were doable, cold but edible. I ordered the fried shrimp which was to be safe however still felt like I was eating 10% shrimp and 90% batter. The salad with the entree was probably the best thing. The soda/ginger ale taste a little funky? My group of 9 enjoyed the food however felt like this place will make you full; rather than give your taste buds a dance battle. To each their own on taste of food, however for me it's a miss. Ambience however was lovely. Also my nephew's snow crab boil had corn that was white/pale yellow which was giving me an impression that it was frozen. read more

Went for dinner on Sunday night. We each got the sirloin with baked potato and green beans. Steak was ok at best. Each meal also came with a small side salad and a roll and each meal was $40.00. We each had one beer. After tip- bill was $120.00. A lot of money for a so so at best meal. I won't be going back read more

..many years ago - fresh out of HS - I went with a couple'a friends to Wildwood & as the keeper of the Mobil Travel Guide® (there was no Yelp/Internet back then) I narrowed our 'big dinner choice' between what was then called Urie's Fish Fry & the Lobster House in Cape May - I chose the latter for us...beginning a long run of spending more time in CM ...sooooo anyway - fast forward to now - after countless visits to Cape May County and curious about the alternate timeline, I finally decided to stop here - especially since after 45 years it's still here! Located in a great spot, just off Rio Grande, we showed up about a half hour before sunset on Memorial Day. No issues getting seated with a good view of the water. Drinks came quickly & we placed an app order which admittedly took awhile as did our entrees ...but it seemed to be a small staff working a holiday ;) the app wasn't the best I've had, but the Steak & Tail entrée was pretty good as was my Girlfriend's Shrimp Scampi (I managed a sampling;). Always enjoy dining by the water & this experience was a good one - any regrets not coming here before?...nah - but I'm glad I finally checked Urie's out. I'm sure it would be a great place to hang out on the weekends! read more

All Hype, No Quality - Spend Your Hard-Earned Money Elsewhere We paid $60 for entrées that came out cold, dry, and with the same uninspired sides for every plate -- either mac and cheese or bland boiled "vegetable of the day." Service was just as bad: our table was still covered in dirty appetizer dishes when the mains arrived, so the food sat on a tray while we waited for them to clear the table. Then we had to wait again for clean utensils. Nobody ever checked on our table -- and it's obvious why. They're too busy to care, and ownership clearly has no interest in quality or customer service. High-end prices for cafeteria-level food and high school-level service. Believe me, don't waste your time or your money. PS I I love my dogs and I wouldn't serve this food to to them !! They should be embarrassed serving this food do better people work hard to be treated this way. read more

8/17/2023 I honestly wouldn't have even considered going back here after the abominable experience last year. My friend, who has a home in the beautiful Grande, gave Uries a second chance and she really enjoyed it. If it wasn't for her I would've assumed they would be shellacking customers again this year. My husband predicted Uries would feel the pain of their stupid business decision of last year eliminating early dine, eliminating salad, choice of sides and eliminating bread too. I think they are still suffering. There was no line in peak season and the restaurant wasn't busy. I got prime rib it was good but needed au jus sauce. Our server, Matt was excellent. My party was happy with what they ordered. I'm glad I chose not to burn my Uries shirt last year because the shirt selections are pretty bad this year. I will probably go back if they continue to hear the customers. I think a lot of business will be lost for good because of the fiasco in 2022. read more

The main attraction of this place is that it's right on the water and has nice views at sunset. Service was great, our server kept checking on us and was attentive. Entrees come with salad, bread, and choice of two sides. I ordered fried crab cakes, which were delicious as was the baked potato. The mac & cheese was a bit cold and reminded me off Wawa mac (if you know you know), which I do like except not when I'm at a restaurant! We had orange crushes, which weren't anything to write home about. read more

So I went here against my better judgement as I'd seen the many reviews panning the food etc. My daughter really wanted crabs so we went. There was a bit of a wait so we waited. We were texted saying our table was ready but then had to wait in another semi line to be seated. We unfortunately were seated in an area with a table of about 4 young girls and 2 adults. The girls were not only extremely loud but the one kept tilting her chair and making the legs smash the floor over and over again. I thought something was banging above us until I realized. What happened to keeping your children at bay while out and having consideration for those around you?! I know children are children but this was nuts. I asked to be moved after ordering drinks because there was NO way I could deal with this or should have to while having dinner. (Never thought this would take almost 3 hours). We were moved however our waitress changed unfortunately. The first one was nice just like our new one. So the new one comes over and asks if we need drinks we advised we already have drinks. She asks about ordering. We ask a few questions about things on the menu. She advises us, we order. 3 of us got the broiled seafood combo, 1 got the chicken parm the other the all you can eat snow crabs. She advised that the crabs would be the first to come out and was that okay. My daughter said sure thats fine. We also ordered mozzarella sticks, crab balls and mussels. While waiting we see people get bread also just having drinks so I ask for bread she brings us bread this was after us sitting for a while and we are hungry. We wait and wait and wait. The waitress comes by and says I'm sorry we are waiting on your mussell's. We say I thought you said the crabs would be out first. She says no usually we bring the apps out first. We were super confused as she totally just contradicted her original statement. Mind you the crabs are all you can eat and she now has very limited time to get her monies worth as it is $90. Finally they bring out the sticks, mussels and balls. The mozzarella sticks literally taste like grease and 4 of the 6 had absolutely NO cheese in them. At this point my hsuband was starved so he just said screw it and ate them. The balls left a lot to be desired and the mussels were good. Finally my daughter gets her first batch of crabs. She is eating them at a rapid pace as she doesn't have a ton of time to enjoy and get her monies worth. We then get our side salads they were super skimpy but I ate it I was starved. Then I wait again. Finally our main meals come out. I'm like this looks ok even the flounder which I advised I didn't eat and asked for a substitute such as another few shrimp or something and was told THEY DON'T do that. So I start eating the shrimp have NO flavor nor does the flounder. The scallops were OK but had to be drowned in butter. I didn't really like the clams casino or deviled crab. My daughter's fiancé agrees and says she isn't eating hers the entire things has NO flavor. My son says I'm starved I have to eat something and eats his. My husband ate his chicken parm as he was starved as well and literally refuses to complain about his meal at a restaurant but he also wasn't thrilled with his. My daughter liked her crabs but literally was skarfing them down because it took almost 40 minutes before she got her first bowl. I tell our waitress about the issue with the 2 of our meals. I had eaten some scallops and shrimp but told her they had no flavor but I was starved. Also told her that the other person wasn't going to eat theirs to please remove from the bill. When she gave us the bill she said we were able to remove hers and yours. When I looked at the bill I noticed they had only removed half of mine.. We trully should have just left after waiting way to long for anything to arrive at our table. When all was said and done half of us still had to leave here and eat something else as we didn't have dinner and were less than satisfied with anything we were served. Bottom line Urie's don't let children run all around the place. Serve food in a timely manner and at least serve quality and savory good not the flavorless stuff we received. Besides my daughter's crabs the entire meal should have been comped. I would personally skip this place just a heads up!. read more

I went there for steamed crabs. They had small, medium, large and jumbo, but they would not serve the jumbo at lunch time only after four. Which truly did not make any sense. And the rum punch had a bleach aftertaste it was not worth it. I sent it back. The bang bang shrimp was nothing to brag about. I wish the food was better because the woman who was singing was doing an excellent job. read more

This is hands down the worst resturant I've ever been to in my entire life. First I received a stale beer then I got a New England clam chowder and it tasted like I was sipping salt and the clams were from a freezer bag. So then for an appetizer I got the mussels in the so called white sauce and it was the worse quality mussels sitting in a dirty dish looking liquid. Then I get the crab cake entree that came with Mac and cheese and fries and first off the crab cake was all dough and the crab was most likely imitation crab then the Mac and cheese was worse then the craft Mac and cheese you make in the microwave and lastly the French fries even sucked. Prices went up horrible I don't know who's paying for this place. To top it all off I went to the bathroom to throw up halfway through the dinner. I wouldn't wish my worst enemy to eat at this place. read more

I'll give 2 stars for scenery, it would be one for service and price. Meals showed up 25 minutes apart, expensive, weak drinks, I walked to other end of table of 10, my plate was taken away with half my meal left. In at lunch time, 2 shrimp scampi were ordered, they said they are out of lunch shrimp scampi.....really, put 2 less shrimp in and 10 less strands of linguine, then you have lunch size, wtf. They want to churn the tables. Restaurant is owned by large investment group that has several restaurants in the area, tourist trap. To add insult, the blue claws were overcooked, meat was stuck to claw shells, short order cook on the crab steamer...tourist trap... read more

We ate here last week. It was awful. My daughter and husband got the prime rib and both were full of gristle. I got lobster and it was very tough, I couldn't cut it with a steak knife it was so tough. My baked potato when I cut it open was black rotted on the one side so I showed waitress and sent back. My veggies were good tho! My granddaughter got chicken fingers and she didn't like them said they were like rubber. Very disappointed and won't have to go back. Very high price for not good food. Get better quality people!!! Two seafood meals last week and both stunk. Very sad read more

I have been dreaming of the Tuna Diane since my son got it on a trip to Wildwood years ago. We finally went back this summer and it was out of this world--just like I remembered.

Part of me thinks that when my partner and I came for an early dinner we were the youngest people here. We both got a bit of a giggle from this since we're not super young ourselves. I looked up reviews for places to go with good shrimp on the menu. From the reviews this was the place that was open that we went to. And it was not what I expected at all. We were seated in what felt like an open air patio right by the water. Because we got there so early we were able to get a table right on the water. They do have sun shades which helped keep the glare out of our eyes. The menu had a variety of things not just seafood. I will say most of their kids menu for my 2-year-old consisted of fried items which really didn't tickle my fancy. But the waiter helped us navigate that which we really did appreciate. My partner who is not always seafood forward opted for steak and potatoes. It's his main go-to so of course I didn't really expect anything different. He did say that he was thinking about adding on crab cakes if he was still hungry after the steak. I decided to go big. After reviewing the menu I decided that the seafood Alfredo was what I was getting. And man it was delicious. I could not believe how much seafood was in it and the taste was incredible. It had a lobster tail, scallops, and shrimp in the dish. I will let you know that I did not eat all of it and I was able to take some home for the next day. For my daughter we got the peel and eat shrimp the 1 lb appetizer and that fulfilled her delicious need for shrimp. Or shrimpies as she calls them. I wish I would have left a little room for a dessert but after eating my meal, what I could of it, there wasn't any room. I would suggest going early to get a nice table by the water. The view was spectacular and the food was pretty great too. read more

You know what's interesting? Urie's wasn't my choice for brunch at all, of course it is due to the mediocre food reviews. Me and hub wants to revisit a restaurant we dine at last time in Wildwood but they were only open during dinner time. We were starving so we chose Urie's instead. As we enter, the hostess told us it would take 30 minutes, I was like great because they have a mini arcade room where the entrance is at. We spend our wait time inside the arcade room winning many items, at least my little one had a great time in there lol. Most of our entrees were mediocre, nothing to oohs and aahs about except for one. Can you guess? Well it is their crabs in a garlicky fingerlicious sauce. I had order 6 and wished I had order more! Definitely a MUST try if you like blue crabs. read more

*BE WARNED: CHARGES A 3.5% CREDIT CARD FEE* Came here for dinner on a weeknight. We didn't have reservations and requested a table for 6. There was a slight wait. Thankfully there is an arcade you can wait in which my kids enjoyed. We were seated shortly after. We sat out on the deck on the water which is really nice. We put in an order of shrimp lejon as an appetizer. We then ordered our entrees shortly after. I ordered the Urie's crabcakes as my entree. Probably about 20 minutes later, our entrees came out. We never got our appetizer and didn't say anything because didn't care at that point. All entrees came with complimentary rolls and a salad to start. You could pick from a bunch of different dressings for salad and I opted for the raspberry vinaigrette. My entree came with two sides and I got the mac and cheese and French fries. My crab cakes were a good portion, flavorful. They did have a good bit of filler but for $32 I thought it was a good deal still. My husband got the tuna Marie and we both thought his was great, better than mine. My kids split a kids meal. The chicken fingers looked really good and not just frozen ones. Their kids meal also came with an ice cream. Overall, we had a pretty good experience but I personally wouldn't come back because they charge a 3.5% credit card fee. I personally am against businesses doing this at all and puts a bad taste in my mouth. But, if they are going to do this it should be made extremely clear beforehand. I checked their website after leaving and there is absolutely no indication on their website that they do this, nothing saying the menu prices are actually cash prices etc. They only have it on their physical menu and at that point what are you going to do once you are already seated? Too late to take out cash. Feels like a bait and switch and a bad way to treat customers. read more

Massive restaurant with mediocre Assembly line food. Soup wasn't hot. Corn on cob was horrible; like it had been boiled hours ago and sat in water. Urie's was crowded and short staffed at the end of season but our server was pleasant and apologetic. Not likely to return. read more

First impression...ambiance...the restaurant was a bit dark, but I got over it. Our waitress was lovely, very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I started with oysters. They were the biggest I've ever had. They had manhattan clam chowder, New England clam chowder and a corn chowder on the menu...I didn't k whip to pick...but I didn't h to choose because they had a flight of soups and I got to try them all. I wish all restaurants had this! For my main meal, I had the 1lb mussels in marinara from appetizer menu. I loved my meal. I would go back. read more

This might be the worst restaurant in the tri state area. Not only is the food horrendous, but the management (short haired woman) is somehow even worse. Save yourself the minimum of $70 a head, you could make better food on your electric motel stove top in 15 minutes read more

I ordered the blackened tuna with sauce on the side, but it arrived covered in sauce. The blackened seasoning was mostly salt, and after just two small bites, I couldn't eat it. The green beans were fresh and cooked perfectly, but they were smothered in butter, which made them inedible for me. The baked potato was the only part of the meal I enjoyed. What surprised me most was that our waitress never asked why I didn't eat my entrée or take it home. For the price and reputation of this restaurant, I expected much better quality and attentiveness. read more

Restaurant is very nice and clean, however i was told the wait was 20-30 mins and waited 45 mins. Then was seated at 8:12 after being told the table was ready at 8. Seated next to a group of children that were slamming their chairs. We got our drinks and asked if we could be moved due to the disturbance. Table was changed at 8:20, it's now 9pm have yet to be served our food that we ordered when we first sat at 8:20.. i had to ask at 850 for some bread thankfully it came right away, took 40 mins to get the appetizers... got mozzarella sticks, 6 in total with only 3 having cheese in them! Mussels in white sauce were okay. Dinner was not brought out until about 9:40 and they "close" at 10... 3 orders of the Broiled seafood combo and had absolutely no flavor. All you can eat snow crabs were very good and are the only reason I'm even rating a 2 star. Waitress was nice and accommodating as well but definitely not worth it. Would not recommend. Will never be back. read more

Unlimited crab legs, unlimited crabs, all you can eat crab legs-that's all my hubby and son kept talking about during our 6 day stay at Cape May and Wildwood Crest recently. They are both die hard fans of crab legs and well Urie's was on their go-to list. We attempted to go twice and there was a two hour wait both times. (There was No way we would wait 2 hrs with a kid.) Lastly on our final night there, we decided to go to Urie's early. We arrived at 4:30pm and we got super lucky! It was also a Monday night which was an extra plus! We got in right away and out server was super sweet informative, quick and attentive. She wAs a doll! I am giving this place a 4 because we really had a peaceful experience and it was my son's favorite part of the trip. My hubby wasn't too thrilled with the thin crabs legs. According to him, they lacked meat but what do you expect for $51 a person for unlimited crab legs? He also wished they offered a price for kids-like an unlimited crab leg price less than the $51-JUST FOR KIDS. I guess not many kids are crab eaters. LOL needless to say, they both opted for the unlimited crab legs. Both my son and husband did enjoy them. The refills kept coming to our table. We didn't even have to ask for a crab refill-our server must have been keeping an eye and wanted to make sure the boys were happy-they totally were! I ordered the crab cakes as appetizers and the early dinner special-the crabcake. Yes. I love crabcakes! My cakes were good but the Mac and cheese I ordered on the side were gross. (I chose them for my son and he didn't even like them!) the tools they offered with my meal were very meh and the veggies seemed frozen. I really wanted to have a lobster roll but they were out-my luck :( Overall, I enjoyed my crabcakes. I would return and try something else next time. The view was nice, the place isn't fancy by any means but if you enjoy crab legs and enjoy sitting on the water then check this place out. If you want a romantic, delicious innovative meal-then you will be disappointed. read more

Disappointing. We had a group of about 15. While the prices were reasonable, the ribs and crab legs were dry/overcooked. The crab cakes were more filler than crab. The service was ok. They were friendly, but very slow getting our check. And unfortunately they do not split checks for large groups. Overall, we were not impressed. The kids enjoyed the arcade, though. read more
