    Did not disappoint! We (4 of us) have chosen Rooneys several times for holiday and birthday celebrations and tonight was the best yet. Seated at a table with a beautiful view of the Ocean, great service from Danica and visits from management occasionally. All of us were very happy with our dinners. The Crabcakes were awesome, Halibut terrific. Never rushed. Live music pleasant and at just the right volume. We will continue to make Rooneys our go to place.

    Absolutely THE BEST BRUNCH I have ever been to. The food was DELICIOUS, the selection was abundant. We enjoyed it so much, while we were there we booked another brunch to celebrate my husband's upcoming birthday.

    Rooneys Sunday Brunch is by far one of the better brunch buffets I’ve tried in the Jersey Shore area. They are good with rotating some of the signature offerings so if you come back another time you’re sure to find some thing new for your palate. Great wait staff and beautiful Long Branch ocean views!!
