Stella Marina Restaurant & Bar

"Nice restaurant appetizers were ok, the calamari was tough. My short ribs were dry and their was no sauce. My wife's veal was cold. The service was very good. For what they charge for dinner all the food should be on point. We won't be going there again any time soon."

"Stella Marina is in an ideal location right on the beautiful boardwalk in Asbury Park. The location alone keeps it busy. The atmosphere is much more elegant than I had expected but it's still chill and relaxed. The food was good here. Menu is heavy with Italian inspired dishes and seafood. The calamari was tasty. The shrimp scampi arrabiatta was really good. The drinks were disappointing. I would visit again."

"This place is situated RIGHT on the shoreline. Very beautiful atmosphere. The temperature is perfect today.. this is not a burger and beer type of place. The food here is excellent as well as the service.. they have a pretty extensive drink menu here which is really nice if you want something other than just beers.. I would definitely eat here again."

"Everything we ordered was excellent...one item was better than the next. The bruschetta was the only item we were disappointed in. (There was no flavor/seasoning/oil). View is fantastic and our server was attentive, polite, friendly and prompt. The short rib was melt-in-your-mouth. A bit pricey, but will come back."

"We were there for a reception and had a limited menu so I cannot speak for the main menu but we enjoyed everything we had. The room is great with three sided windows. And you can't beat the view of the ocean from the second floor. They also had a deck we could enjoy, even in the winter, and take pictures from. There was also room for a band and dancing without feeling crowded. I would recommend this restaurant for a party."
