Reviews for The Atlantic House in Atlantic Highlands, NJ
Josh is the best server I?ve ever been able to mentally comprehend in my brain. If someone was capable of reading my mind for an... hour straight it?s this guy. Food is insanely good. Come here, live here, come back to here?you will not regret. Read more
Was really excited to find a restaurant with a gluten free fryer!! Was able to have fried calamari and fried fish for the first... time in about 10 years. Everything was very good and the waiter was friendly. Nice outdoor seating up top. Four stars becausethey just didn?t have enough staff for a busy Saturday in July. Read more
Best all around spot for dinner and drinks in AH!! Each and every member of the staff is friendly, pleasant and attentive. Great... cocktail list and too many delicious menu items to name. Some of my favorites include the wings, steak bites, pot of clams, andsmash burger! Read more
This was a very pleasant end to the week. The Millennial Chum and I ended up here for a quasi-dinner last Friday night, at her... recommendation. I've passed through Atlantic Highlands before (I think mostly en route to Sandy Hook), but this was my firsttime in the downtown area. We found street parking about a block or two away pretty quickly, and were immediately seated nearthe door upon entering despite not having a reservation (to be fair, it was more high-top, informal seating in the bar area,which tends to fill up after the interior dining area does, but still). Huge points in their favor - as we were being seated,the hostess gave us directions to the bathroom. That is literally the first time I've encountered that, and it's a great idea. Idon't know why other places don't implement that immediately so you don't have customers awkwardly wandering around looking forit, momentarily distracting other staff for assistance. I wasn't too hungry, having accidentally eaten some heavy Mexican foodearlier in the day, so we opted for nothing but apps - cheese curds, thai chili chicken wings and brussels sprouts. Iconcentrated almost exclusively on the curds, though i sampled one or two wings and thought they were fine (I'm not a huge wingperson so don't rely too heavily on me in that regard - love eating meat off ribs, hate eating meat off wings). The curds werevery good. I don't know that I've sampled a ton of them and honestly most were probably consumed at a Chili's, but like almostany bar app, it usually comes down to how heavy they are on the frying. These were fried perfectly, not overdone, and weren'tgreasy as a result. The Millennial Chum was perfectly content on the other side of the table, munching happily on the brussels.I've learned through time and experience that she can be pretty high maintenance when it comes to that particular appetizer, soif she's signing off on them, that's a solid endorsement. It seemed important to sample a naughty bever Read more
Drinks are great. Get drinks here As an appetizer we got their big order of wings and the Mac and cheese? Don?t get the wings... (small and brittle. Almost over cooked and def too small for the $15) Mac and cheese was bland?don?t get that either. Doubleburger was pretty good. I really enjoyed the bacon and ranch on the same burger One really cool thing this restaurant does isthey give you a BUNCH of Brussels sprouts instead of fries if you ask. Fries are good but Brussels sprouts is yummy andhealthy? One thing they could do better is not completely drown the Brussel sprouts in that spicy chili(?) sauce. Maybe adrizzle is good enough. Irish Rita was super yummy Pear martini was excellent too! Waitress was very friendly andattentive. Vibe 5 ? stars Food 3 stars Read more
We visited on a Saturday. After another restaurant gave us an 1hr wait for 12. This place sat us right away. Loved the high top... seats. The food was very good & service was amazing. Very attentive, we werent waiting long for our food nor drinks. I'ddefinitely visit this place again. Read more
4.5 stars out of 5. Lovely dining experience at this modern local eatery. Came on a Saturday night with my children & everyone... was happy. My drink was probably one of the best cocktails I've had in a long time...summery & fresh. I would go back there justfor the cocktail! The prices aren't cheap but the quality of the food & portion size are on par & the server was unpretentious &super nice. Would definitely recommend & thrilled to have this place within walking distance. Read more
Overpriced food, horrible taste, 0 flavor, we had to wait a half hour to order our food, hostess had to wait our table because... the person who was supposed to wait us was just not attentive at all and very rude. Got our food wrong twice. Waiter got anattitude when we told him about it. Hostess was really nice though and she made the experience a little better. Overall theabsolute worst experience and food I?ve ever had in an establishment. If I could give 0 starts I would. Read more
