Best Restaurants for Groups in Long Branch

It was our anniversary and the service and respect given was *****! Thank you Trama and staff for a great experience! A special shout out to Sean! I’ll be BACK!

Overall very good food and drinks. Service was excellent. The DJ kept the music volume at a level you could talk with your group without yelling. Atmosphere was great. Reservation was easy to get even on a Friday evening.

My nephew, who’s been a chef on private yachts for decades, was visiting and wanted to dine at an oceanfront restaurant to celebrate his dad (who passed awsy one year ago). We chose Rooney’s, never having eaten here before. We were not disappointed. The atrium, where we were seated, had a wonderful view of the ocean and the room was very comfortably heated, in addition to feeling spacious and elegant. We started with the baked artichoke appetizer…with a little more of the tasty bread, it could have been a meal! My vegan husband had the Spicy Rigatoni (unfortunately the only vegan option) which he said was great. I had the pan fried bronzini with sweet chili sauce. And even though I rarely like fish, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The sides of mashed Gouda cauliflower and crispy Brussels sprouts were amazing. My nephew- chef loved the lobster roll…except for the fact the roll wasn’t toasted and buttered, which he felt was a real mistake. Overall, our experience was top notch. We will be back!

Always excellent! Happy Hour provides great wine by the glass at low prices and delicious appetizers. Highly recommend the steak tartare and for dinner, the risotto. Dessert should not be missed!

Wonderful service and excellent waiter. Food was delicious and bit pricey. But, you’re at the beach. What can you expect!
