Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Rumson

Exactly what I would have expected and a bit better. Classic Jersey shore marina restaurant. Something's are best left unchanged. This is one. Food and service were great

It was Valentine’s Day and was a wonderful dining experience. We were warmly greeted by the hostess. The restaurant has an excellent atmosphere and even though it was busy it didn’t feel crowded as the tables are nicely spaced. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. The lemon drop martini was smooth and tasty. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly and the scallops with spinach risotto were delicious. The peel and eat shrimp were well chilled on a bed of ice. The brownie and ice cream is the best in Monmouth County! It was a delicious and relaxing evening.

The Drifthouse gave us a most memorable Valentine experience. We were seated at a prime table with a view of the ocean and the pool. Although off season, we had the feel that wait staff through top management were there to make this the wonderful time it actually was for us. Mealwas excellent! The seafood platter was fresh and cooked to yield greatest taste. Having to choose between two wonderful pies, the General Manager Hafid Elboji, solved my predicament by giving me BOTH! Serve throughout the meal by Vincent was flawless, anticipating our every need, and resolving it in anticipation. This is a high spot of Jersey Shore dining. I expect to be returning often!

As always, the food was outstanding. We had the blinis and the scallops risotto. Our server Sue is a doll, they all are. She offered us two big chocolate dipped Strawberries with whip cream for dessert. We just had the grandest time gazing at the view and raving about the food. Yes, we are frequent diners, We’ve been coming hair forever, been in the area over forty years. Nothing compares to lunch at the Molly except dinner and breakfast at the Molly!😀. We will be back very soon. One of the highlights of our retirement in the land between two rivers!

We tried Brothers Daly for the first time last night and it was excellent! Our sever Jake mentioned he was new to serving but he did a great job. He was very knowledgeable about the menu, made good recommendations, and was attentive but not over bearing. We ordered a few drinks, a bunch of apps, and split an entree. The soda bread was some of the best ive had and was not dry like the grocery store version. My husband said the french onion soup was one of the best hes ever had and all of our cocktails were delicious. Definitely adding this place to our rotation
