I've been here before and have enjoyed many a meal here but this time it was so so- the lobster nachos were great and fun. My steak was overcooked but well seasoned and my scallops were sweet and perfectly cooked. Sadly, my daughters salmon was dry and under-seasoned. Another child in our party ordered crab legs and we were all shocked to see that it came with nothing- just the crab legs- no veggies, no potato. We were not served bread when we sat down- usually we are. The waitress looked familiar, I sure we've had her before but she seemed very unfamiliar with the menu. She did compliment us on our kids outstanding behavior (they were pretty good that night). The restaurant was not busy at all when we arrived around 8pm. Kind of an off experience for this place as I've eaten here many times before. I left disappointed this time around. Too bad- I used to really enjoy Park Seafood!

I came here with my daughter and her friends - the outside is deceiving you need to go in. In fact staff and the police staff eat here. The oweners are from SC and are a delight to speak to. I had pulled pork that was good. The mac and cheese bites were out of this world. I finally had decent sweet tea. My daughter got the shrimps that were delicious and get the fries. We did not have a bad dish here. I hope they come back next year.

We were in Lavalette looking at rental properties and decided to stop at the Crabâs Claw for lunch. The waiter mentioned they had fresh-caught scrod, so we both ordered the beer battered scrod sandwich. It arrived hot and tasted delicious! It was accompanied by fries, also crisp, hot and delicious!There arenât a lot of shore restaurants open in Winter, but the Crabâs Claw does it right?

Had "take out" for lunch here and it was very good. Chicken sandwich and a salad. I wanted to add quinoa to my salad (which was an option on the board) but they where not sure any had been made at lunch. When they asked the chef he did not know what quinoa was. I thought about slowly backing out of the restaurant as if I had walked into some kind of flashback before quinoa was popular. Nevertheless lunch was delicious.Returned with a party of 8 for dinner a few days later (with reservations). The menu is not extensive but very appealing. Prices are not cheap but being a BYOB they make their money on the food.I ordered the Fried Eggplant Burrata appetizer ($15) and the Premium Reserve Pork Chop ($28) and an order of the Truffle Fries ($7). I also asked about getting a half order of one of the pastas since they looked so good. Being Italian... pasta is like religion. I've got to try it. Waiter said they don't do that. I asked to talk to the owner who knows a friend of mine. The waiter said he would ask him to stop over. He never came and the waiter never acknowledged that they wouldn't accommodate my request. The eggplant app was very good, like a Napoleon. It was crispy with tender cheese and delicious sauce. Very very good. The truffle fries tasted great. But didn't need ketchup on the side. Why ruin the truffle flavour????The pork chop was thick and juicy. A smear of sweet potateo, some apricot and a couple of brussel sprouts but I was left envious of those around me who had pasta.I tried the mushroom pasta ribbons. Good, but the flavours seemed more asian than Italian. I also tried the bucatini pasta which was pretty good. But my heart was still longing for the orecchiette with sausage and broccolini. I went over to the waiter and ordered a whole portion since they didn't deign to sell me a half portion. It was delicious. Even after the pork chop it was not a problem to finish the plate... especially since the chop only came with a smear of stuff.Dessert was a cheese cake made by some local "girl"? We tried it and it was a very good ricotta cheese cake. Light and tasty. Overall this place is a refreshing change to the usual fare on the shore. It's good quality in a hip decor with good food. It's upscale in a beachy way without the pretentiousness of some of the old school Italian restaurants around here.

We were both in the mood for fish but after reading some reviews we both zeroed in on the lobster dishes. I had the stuffed lobster my boyfriend the paella. Neither dish disappointed, beautifully presented & very tasty. Although my boyfriend said the paella was nothing like heâd ever had before (weâve had in Spain as well as Newark Portuguese restaurants) he said it was delicious. The inside is not much to look at & the outside seating is very simple as well with picnic tables but the food is the real star here!

Another season of solid Italian seafood favorites. Started out with hot antipasti featuring best calamari, decent shrimp and ok breaded clams. Wife and mom had the shrimp oreganata while I went with the flounder. The latter was superior but all tossed with a flavorful pasta peppered with garlic. Table service attentive and setting always attractive. Be sure to get there early to avoid lengthy wait as some patrons never seem to end their meal.

Made the detour to Seaside Heights after a mobbed Six Flags caused us to exit before even dealing with Saturday crowds. Drove into Seaside Park and saw a lively Bum Rogers.Greeted upon opening the door and was seated immediately. They have a huge menu but also restaurant week so we opted for that. We each had a crab cake app, prime rib and the Connecticut lobster roll for the entree, and apple cake and bread pudding for dessert, all for $36 each. The spiked Arnold Palmers were quite refreshing. They just finished a new batch of bread pudding which was piping hot and awesome!Jeffrey provided solid service, music was at an enjoyable level, and tvâs all around kept college football nearby. They do have a lot of âgoodâ here, including a separate bar area in case the bar scene isnât your style, and another back bar and private event room for groups. The kitchen is in view but behind a glass wall which really keeps the heat out of the dining room. Free WiFi for guests and a follow up email asking how your experience was really the best way get feedback. For November (11/2) the place was basically full all night but servers and bussers and hostesses work on-stop to turn over tables and keep things moving. Restaurants make the same mistake over and over and cut front of house staff to save payroll dollars but Bum Rogers has extra on staff and turnover means more money for everyone. Open year round, we will stop again. Thank you for your visit and your awesome review!
