Outstanding service and food. We def found our new favorite breakfast place. Menu is amazing, it was difficult to choose. I had the wheel house omelet and the home fries with onions and peppers.. excellent. Looking at the lunch menu, we already canât wait to come back for lunch soon. Portions are huge, prices are great, and staff are super friendly.

Very nice large menu, lots of things to try. Our pork chops were nice and tender. Very busy on Fri night we were there. Not a lot of tables, large bar, very small liquor store in the front.

Had lunch on a cold Saturday afternoon. Fun decor (recycled cell phones on pop art bas relief and odd pots/pans/kitchen equipment hanging/suspended from walls/ceilings). Concise menu, and Iâd imagine the kitchen crew does it all well. I indulged with the chicken banh mi sandwich with fries. OMG! Tasty and tender chicken in a flavor-packed sandwich. Fries were crispy, but salt âflakesâ were too heavy-handed. Hubby enjoyed his chicken Caesar salad despite the dressing being too heavy. (It also seemed jarred, not homemade.)Word of caution: âsmokeâ from wood-fired oven causes breathing issues for those with pulmonary difficulties.Glad you enjoyed your food and visit. Everything in our kitchen is made from scratch so next visit if you have any concerns please ask for Kathy or Bernadette so we may help.

Fantastic!I catered for a 50 person corporate event and everyone in the area recommended ordering from this Diner. Everything exceeded my expectations!The owner John is a easy to work with and is very serious about his food and it was amazing. My guests came back for second and third rounds and honestly it was the highlight of a very long day. We ordered both appetizers in the afternoon and a full dinner later in the day and everything came on time, perfect temperature and was just great tasting, high quality, great food. Thank you John and the staff at Sand Castle!

Predominantly fresh seafood, with other comfort food options. Fresh Lemonades hand squeezed daily. Great New England Clam Chowder. All desserts made in house. All made fresh from scratch.

I have driven by this restaurant for a couple of years, without giving it a second thought because of the location. Was finally persuaded to try by friends. Interior ambiance is homey and welcoming, belying its outside appearance. Crusty bread and seasoned butter were served immediately. The menu, which probably changes weekly based on the seafood market, was varied with entrees, sandwiches, and price points. (âNo substitutions,â the menu warns, so be sure you like all the components on the plate.). Our table started with clam chowder, Brie and fruit spread (big enough for the whole table of four) and buffalo cauliflower (also big enough for the whole table). Mains were fish and chips, tuna poke bowl (leftovers for the next dayâyum!) and baked loin of cod. All food was luscious and wonderful! Portions were generous, prices very reasonable for the quality of food. BYOB. Work past any misgivings about the curbside appearance and GO.

Itâs about the food here because the setting is still pretty dated. Started out with the date and cheese board which offered some excellent Mediterranean flavors. Mom had the flank steak and my wife ordered a grilled tuna. Mine was the Jersey clam bake. Except for Momâs fries all were excellent. My broth was especially good for dipping. Saved room for the house made baklava that did not disappoint.

I recently had breakfast at Shut Up & Eat and it was a blast. The service is great if not a little (intentionally) surly. You have to go in with the right attitude and you'll have fun. The menu is extensive but not much for vegans. I had Avocado Toast (without the eggs), home fries, and a side of potatoes. The food was nothing special but the coffee was excellent.
