Lovely birthday dinner! The Brussel sprouts and Nona’s meatball appetizers were terrific, and the lobster ravioli and mushroom ravioli were each fresh and delicious. We ate outside on the upstairs patio bc it was a gorgeous evening- there are only 3-4 tables out there and we were worried we’ would be forgotten, but our server, Giovanna, was wonderful. She was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and restaurant and checked on us frequently- she even put a candle in the key lime pie and sang happy birthday! We had a very enjoyable evening and look forward to coming back!

I had an amazing experience at Morton’s last night. The food was outstanding and the service was exceptional. I had one table in dining area (waiter John) and one table in bar area ( serviced by 1 male and 1 female bar attendants). Service was equal on both ends. Highly recommend

Went to The Smithville Inn for a birthday celebration and it was fantastic. Our server Mike was great, easygoing, funny, but very attentive. Had the French onion soup and it was excellent. We both had the filet tips and they were so tender! We also enjoyed carrot cake and the chocolate cake. Both were scrumptious! Portion sizes were large resulting in us taking some home for another dinner. Would definitely go back again!

The food and cocktails we had were amazing!! Easily one of the best meals we had in Sea Isle. There was live music which was nice but a little loud. The restaurant over looks one of the main roads through Sea Isle which looks nice especially at night. Definitely a must visit in Sea Isle. A nice date night spot!
