Best Casual Restaurants in Keansburg

This was our first visit here. We were originally attracted to it because the great Motown themed band, "Motor City Revue", was playing here at no admission or cover charge! Amazing!! They are great and kept the place rockin' and dancing all night. As an added special bonus, the ambiance, food, drinks and service were really good. They also honored a special request we made through Open Table. We had a great night at a reasonable price. We'll be back.

Had another wonderful meal, cocktails and date night l. Loved the holiday decor and for the first time sat in the covered patio area-we usually reserve a bar high top. Our waiter was attentive, friendly and paced our meal as requested so we were not finishing appetizers when our entrées arrived. We started with our favorite appetizers- crispy bbq ribs and the bread with ricotta. Ribs needed a bit more sauce but were excellent. My husband tried the Bolognese (he usually gets short ribs) which is offered in two sizes. Delicious but we expected the larger portion to be big enough for leftovers but portion was just enough for him. Scraped the plate. I had my usual, the organic chicken. Crisp and juicy as always. Overall a great meal and experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The salmon and tuna tacos were fabulous. We both had short ribs and they were delicious. Dessert was also a treat with the key lime pie. Our waiter was extremely accommodating.

Always consistently excellent food is always cooked to order and the service is great Our server Kristen is always happy and a pleasure to be around We love Elli’s it’s our go to for a relaxing delicious breakfast or brunch

Semolina is always our first choice when we come back to NJ. As usual is was phenomenal!!! The coffee crusted venison carpaccio was tender and delicious. I had the squash angolotti that were plump and the creamy sauce has just enough truffle and pepper notes. My husband had the spicy octopus ragú and it was light and flavorful. Finished the night with a hefty pot de crème that was perfection. Trish was out server and she was attentive, witty and efficient as the dining room was filling up punctuated by Bryson and Jillian who made sure we had everything we needed. once again walked away full and happy!
