Sea Bright Fish Company

Located in the storefronts that were devastated by the storm in Sea Bright, NJ, Sea Bright Fish Company has a relaxed atmosphere, with the owners and their family working as the staff. While the place may not look fancy, let me emphasize that the food is truly outstanding. You won't find elaborate, tiny presentations here—no minuscule strips of fish adorned with sprouts precariously placed on a grape tomato. Instead, you can expect deliciously prepared seafood served in generous portions, with whole fillets of your chosen fish. The stuffed clams are the best I've had in 30 years (and they actually contain real clams!). The scallops are as sweet as candy, and the shrimp are firm—not injected with water like some other places. If you find yourself in Monmouth County and appreciate seafood, you must stop by this gem. They also have a seafood market where you can purchase meals to go, and it's BYOB (with a wine store just two doors down). In a time when many local seafood restaurants are declining, this spot stands out and makes the rest seem lackluster.

Amazing food excellent service. I'm a firm believer that attitude is everything when it comes to running a business and the men and women at The Sea Brite Fish Co. Truly care about customer satisfaction. They were very accommodating and respectful. Not to mention the food was unbelievable. Attention all readers!! Give yourselves a break and try this place. You'll love it.

Excellent food. The prices are right. We also opted to grab fresh shrimp and lobster tails to take home and cook ourselves and the prices were very good.

The menu offers an excellent selection of food. I tried the fish tacos, and they were among the best I've ever had—very fresh and flavorful. My husband and I shared the calamari fries, which were fantastic. He thoroughly enjoyed his fish and chips sandwich as well. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable for fresh seafood. The staff were extremely friendly. We will definitely return!

We brought the family out for dinner tonight and found something for everyone—delicious options for both seafood enthusiasts and those who prefer land-based dishes. The staff was incredibly warm and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed for the wine and beer we brought along. Thank you for a lovely evening; we’ll definitely be back!
