Waitress was friendly, service was quick. But the food was disgusting to be honest. Had breakfast, threw half of it away.

delicious food, place could be cleaner with a more spacious dining area, a little cramped. music is way too loud, a more calmer music played like jazz or some RnB would set the mood perfectly. overall 8/10 for the experience.

We were there the 1 st night they opened 2018. Service and food were excellent. I fear writing this post due to not being able to return for an excellent dinner. I am sure there will be crowds during the peak season. Enjoy.

Omg this place is more than fantastic! The lobster bisque was the best I’ve ever had and I’ve had plenty! My daughter had lobster Mac n cheese which was gone in a blink!! My partner and I both had rigatoni with vodka sauce, mine with shrimp and his with chicken. Both were incredible. Christine was fantastic coming to check on us and chat a minute. All in all a wonderful way to end our trip. We even got extra soup to bring home!! Don’t miss a chance to try this place. You will not regret it!

This is our favorite restaurant in Seaside. The food is always amazing and service is great. We love the mussels Bianco, spa salmon, salmon BLT, blackened shrimp watermelon salad, and seafood Mediterranean. Basically the whole menu! Check this place out, you won’t be disappointed!

Last night we had dinner at a hidden gem in Seaside Heights. PJ’s Place. Right on the boardwalk. Food was so good! Very nice entrees, professional and friendly staff. BYOB. Highly recommend!

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with our dinner. Boardwalk food isn't typical great. A slice of pizza and a good sausage and pepper sandwich is the best you can do on a good day on the boardwalk

I had the short rib and homemade pasta. The pasta was fresh, as they had stated. They had some interesting items on the menu, and the three other people I was with were happy with their dinners.

This is the disclaimer. To occupy a spot in the boardwalk, you must have a large percentage profit. So, my short rib portion wasn't what I may get if I was at a restaurant in my town where they dont have the tremendous rent.

This is always going to be the case on the boardwalk. They had a good balance between price, ingredients, and flavor, and if I was looking to have dinner on the boardwalk, I would definitely go here again.

If you are on Seaside boardwalk and looking for a place to have dinner, I would recommend PJs

What a lovely place. We sat outside and were served in a timely manner. We ordered calamari first which was lovely, then the main course which was just incredible. It is BYOB so come tipsy or bring your own!
