The wait staff is clearly professional
and well-equipped to explain the ingredients in each dish. The
menu is varied and for the most part moderately priced. I did
notice, however, that the beef dishes were quite pricey. One of the
beef offerings was twin filet mignons with gorgonzola cheese.
It was extraordinary and well worth the price - however, I could have
done well with just one filet; unfortunately that was not offered on the menu.
Breads and salads were excellent. A shrimp dish with
horseradish sauce and fresh vegetables was very flavorful but the
shrimp were a bit overcooked. I must say, however, this was my only
complaint. Desserts were above average, and although we
enjoyed our coffee at a leisurely pace, we were never made to feel
that we were being rushed.
This restaurant should be added to your list for good, pleasant
dining. -Jersey Shadow-

Kelly's
Tavern - Walking into Kelly's Tavern in Neptune on a recent and
very cool Saturday, I was struck by just how crowded this
bar-restaurant was and how diverse the patrons were.
Being very hungry this was a very good sign and lifted my
expectations for this down-the-shore eatery. Located just beside the
new Belmar bridge, this traditional Irish Pub is full of good
service, great food and a fun laid-back atmosphere. You might
have to break out a flashlight to read the menu, but it's well worth
the effort.
For me to rave about a place, it can't break any of my top 10 things
not to do while dining out and this place not only met but exceeded
my expectations even though it was quite dark inside. My hot
pastrami sandwich was served right away and very hot. In a word,
it was awesome... so awesome, in fact, that I will go out of my way to
go there in the future. A buddy of mine had your basic
cheeseburger and raved also about how good it was. The prices
are fantastic and the service is quick, friendly and competent.
I've not said this before in any of my reviews, but I highly
recommend this place when in the Belmar area, and I'm quite sure that
you won't be disappointed with this jersey-shore pub experience. -Jersey
