Fabulous food. Ate at the bar and had incredible salads and halibut. Loved everything. Atmosphere is fresh and fun. Can't wait to go back.

We ordered the country salad which was big enough for the both of us to split. Also the braised short ribs in a spicy barbeque sauce which was excellent. You didn't need a knife to cut it. It just fell off the bone! The parmesan truffle fries were also delicious. Great food & great service!

A gem. I would drive the three hours from Central NJ to eat here again. We had the pork belly, oysters Friskafella, pepper crusted filet of beef and truffle fries from which you could smell the earth coming off of them. The service was efficient and unobtrusive, and the atmosphere ordinary. Oh, but the food..... No better way to end... More

This is the second time my wife and I have eaten here and it did not disappoint. My wife started with the pork belly which was very tasty. Then she had the short rib for her main course which was so tender and delicious. I had the oysters and the seabass, both of which were excellent. It's not cheap so... More

I love this place, go there a lot. The menu is excellent, food is wonderful. Even without the original owner, Dennis, the place is great. Consistently excellent food.

We had heard that they had a 25 on Zagat, and had to check them out. We had a tremendous dinner! The calamari was perfectly fried and delicious. The oysters Friskerfeller was delicious. My boyfriend had the rib eye, which was a little on the rare side for medium rare, but was delectable. I had the duck, which was the... More

While my boyfriend and I stayed at Ruby's Cove for my 28th birthday, we ate at Frisky Oyster. WoW! He had the filet mignon and I had the duck! Several days later and we are still talking about the food! Oh and the decor is simply amazing. When you walk in, you feel like you in an upscale restaurant in... More

Me and my husband have dined at the Frisky Oyster on numerous occasions. We have never had a bad meal. The chef/owner is fabulous. He is a pleasure to speak with when he is front of house, and he makes phenomenal and creative dishes in the kitchen. His desserts are divine. The waitresses are all well versed in the menu... More
