Best Seasonal Restaurants in Manasquan

Party of 6 for Christmas Eve. Dinner was fantastic. It was busy but the service was great. Great ambience and lighting. Curated cocktails. Noise was well controlled. Food was the star of the show. We were there at night so I can't wait to go back for lunch to see the views of the ocean from the dining room.

We do not normally go out on holidays. And are not fans of price fixed menus….we just like to order what we want but the menu and meal was phenomenal. Such a great experience. We did not feel rushed and Santa popped in!!!!

Though it was a busy Christmas Eve, our server, Haley, provided wonderful as did Paul and Arturo. My husband I shared the Beet & Arugula salad and Shrimp Cocktail. The sauce served with the shrimp was fabulous, spicy with a nice kick of horseradish. The salad was lightly dressed with a champagne vinaigrette along with goat cheese…yum. For entrees we ordered roasted pork tenderloin with mustard sauce and shaved Brussels sprouts along with the Braised Sort Rib over garlic mashed potatoes. For dessert we finished with Banana Tart. Food is consistently delicious and inventive.

The food was awesome very cozy. Setting noise level is only allowed due to the loud mouth that was sitting next to me. Can’t wait to go back. It was awesome.

Never had a bad experience at the Grand. The salad starters are always great and the red lettuce salad we had last night was no exception. Delicious and ample. I had the duck and wife the ‘ ol reliable burger. Both were excellent.
