"Just had an amazing, delicious dinner! Thank you for the wonderful dining experience!"

"The food was very well prepared and tasty. Way over priced . $60 for an average size piece of halibut over a bit of spinach. Duck was enjoyed by others I was with and at a better price point (still high $48) Menu is always the same. Nothing particularly special, but all good. Service was good. I would suggest this place if the price doesn't matter or it's a very special occasion and you need a more upscale place. Otherwise, save your money. Eat with regular folks (e.g. not the Love Ladies crowd) and save your money for a really special meal that matches the price."

"As always the food was delicious but that’s why I’m so disappointed with my meal! The special offered was 4 blackened scallops with a corn and lobster succotash with asparagus and artichoke. Both my husband and I ordered and received only 3 scallops. I personally had one 1” piece of asparagus and not even one piece of artichoke. Nobody asked how our meal was because it clearly was lacking ingredients. It was so delicious but I left hungry! And the cost per entree was over $60 each. Come on! Don’t say it’s 4 scallops and serve only 3! It will be a long time if ever that I return. We were basically ripped off. Not cool!!!!"

"Food was good. Really liked the tuna pizza and the seared tuna. Service was really good. But the vibe in the restaurant was interesting. Catering to boomers in the suburbs."

"French-Asian modern style seafood cuisine that is mainly seafood with some vegetarian options and steak entrees. The food quality is superior and the food is fresh. All the fish is fresh out of water, and prepared with a keen sense of artistry that both the aesthetic principles of the plate itself and your palate will be savouring each morsel. The signature dish since 1997 is No1 Yellowfin Rare seared Tuna slices served over Yukon mashed potatoes infused with wasabi, flash fried bok choy, and a drizzle of miso vinaigrette. Another favorite is pan seared Halibut, miso sticky rice, garlic braised yucca, and finished with a lemon preserve demi glaze. Last but not least, panko crusted heirloom Fried green tomato, topped with thin layer of guacamole and lobster-jumbo lump crab salad piled inches high over the top of the fried tomato. This a treat to die for and it’s not something you will find anywhere. The ambiance is exclusively high end, white table cloths, candlelit rooms with very experienced servers who are extremely knowledgeable about all the different dishes and foods that mightn’t be common to the average person. Friendly and welcoming, they will be reciting the specials whilst opening your bottle of wine or champagne that you brought on your own. Note there is no bar here (as in many restaurants along the jersey shore especially long beach island). Reservations are a must during peak season (memorial day to Labor Day). You may get, on chance get a seat by walking in, if it’s not already fully booked. The interior is a beautiful shade of gray, with lots of mirrors to enhance the visual space of the room. It is a smaller sized venue, sporting only about 16 or 17 tables. Parties of 8 are usually the maximum number that they can fit at a table. Definitely a romantic place, certainly not child friendly, or a place that you want to get a “quick bite” after the beach. This is a place where you want to go with your adult friends or your significant other, dress nicely (neatly casual at least) and enjoy the food and company. Yellowfin is very Manhattan-esque, like a hot spot in soho or the upper west side. It would be safe to assume that the prices are equivalent to what you are getting. Appetisers range from $16-$28, and entrees range from $28-$75. But it’s worth every penny!!"
