Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Oceanport

This is my new favorite restaurant. Love the charming rustic decor. I feel like we’re in the Pennsylvania countryside when we’re here. The service is phenomenal, the server and the support staff are there whenever you need them. Very friendly and attentive. Now, the food. Absolutely delicious. Best rice balls ever. Honestly, I never liked rice balls until these. Crispy, cheesy delicious! All the salads are exquisitely composed. The way the greens are sliced and perfectly dressed. We had the tricolore with roasted butternut squash (finely chopped) with crispy shallots and cider vinaigrette. I’d had the halibut with lobster cream sauce and lump crab last week, which was a large fresh piece of flaky moist fish. Someone at the next table had the shrimp scampi and I already knew I had to try it this time. It was without question, not even close, the best shrimp scampi of my 50 years. The sauce was the perfect combo of wine lemon and butter. The shrimp were cooked perfectly with a crunchy breadcrumb topping. Oh, the Brussel sprouts side is also a standout. Dessert, don’t bother looking at the menu- just get the graham cracker gelato with a cappuccino, You’ll thank me later; I promise.

Live music was great tonight! Group was called The Banjos.

On a busy, busy night, Christmas Eve, we didn’t feel rushed for a second, Dalton was terrific, handled our weird questions with ease and grace, she was a lively and lovely part of our time at Brothers. If we weren’t in the Christmas spirit, it wouldn’t have been for long. The bar, restaurant and outdoor space are decorated for the holidays, not an inch or dollar was spared, absolutely spectacular, tasteful and joyous decorations everywhere. Magnificent, really. We inhaled oysters, so fresh, perfectly shucked, could have eaten another dozen (and then some), delicious wines and cocktails, then three delish entrees including special. No room for dessert. A perfect night, will be back. And back again, thank you!
