We stopped by a few places in the area and they had the best looking menu. The coconut shrimp was the best I have had and the main course didn’t disappoint. They have great Margarita options and the serving team was great.

You must try the lobster roll! Great experience with amazing, friendly service and consistently outstanding food. Jerry is wonderful and you can tell he takes pride in the restaurant and its food which makes all the difference. Highly highly recommended!!

Had made a reservation and was promptly greeted and showed to a table. Our server Whitney was funny and efficient. All of us enjoyed the food and both Jerrys stopped at our table to check on us. We will definitely return.

This is one of the best seafood restaurant I had in long island. Everything is delicious and fresh including Cole slaw, pickle etc. My wife for the first time loves pickles. The seafood is absolutely delicious and fresh. The steamed vegetables are the best ones I ever had. Fresh tender with slightly sweetness. The owner is so friendly and has absolute pride in his business.

Food was delicious. I got the Jerry's famous lobster roll with waffle fries. After a long day at the beach, it definitely hit the spot! All the wait staff were friendly and helpful. Jerry even stopped by to see how our meal was. We would go back when we visit the beach in Long Island again.

Near the Aquarium, but tucked away overlooking the marina, we’re glad we found this place. All of the seafood was fresh and perfectly prepared. It’s a casual fun place for the whole family. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and helpful. The owner, Jerry, stopped by every table to check up, always a good sign. We’ll definitely go back.

Friendly staff...great food! Decor and ambience are nice but nothing special but the menu items were tasty and a good amount of choices. We ate here twice and enjoyed both times.

For a local family/friends seafood joint, this place is very good. Yes, the service is friendly but a little slow - its Long Island. Yes, the parking is scarce - it's Long Island. But the food is very good and the atmosphere is relaxing and fun after a busy day.

We had an early dinner after checking in to the Hyatt next door. Our waitress was the best (wish I remembered her name) and the chef came out to check on us. Food was great and we felt welcomed. Food choices from pasta & seafood, to wraps & burgers. Would definitely return if we were ever in the area again.
