Best Live Music Restaurants in Long Branch

The BD is a gorgeous spot which we visited for the first time last night. The bar is impressive and the drinks were amazing. The service was also impeccable however the food was inconsistent. The asparagus and fish were excellent but we found the fried dishes mushy and cold. Hopefully just an off night - we will be back to explore more items on the menu.

My husband started the evening with a Blanton's bourbon on the rocks which is normally not available at many restaurants in the area. It was a generous pour! I chose the Margherita mocktail which was quite good! We shared the mezze platter which was full of flavor. We especially enjoyed the eggplant caponata & whipped feta, which was unique to this dish. My husband had the braised short rib served over mashed potatoes. It was perfectly cooked in a red wine reduction. I had the blackened Mahi Mahi with bok choy & roasted potatoes with a sweet & spicy sauce. The Mahi was also perfectly cooked & delicious! The bok choy was tender & tasty! While the sauce was flavorful, it was too spicy for me. The highlight of the evening was our server, Cory. He was attentive, but not overbearing. He was personable & knowledgeable about the menu & menu specials, which the Mahi Mahi was. He was wonderful!! Our only disappointment was the delay in being served our main course. Corey checked in with us several times, but there was still a delay. Apparently, there were several large parties & perhaps the cause for the unexpected delay. Since the service, food & surroundings were a plus, we will give the restaurant another try. We'll certainly request seating in Cory's area.

Great service and food!! The staff is friendly and makes great suggestions. I will be returning

Outstanding experience. Good food and service Ms Kwang was wonderful. Very attentive with a great attitude. We will certainly return when we are in the area.

This was a lunch to celebrate my brother’s retirement from being a United Airlines pilot for years. Our server was excellent. She was attentive to all of our needs and very pleasant and added to the celebration. Thank you for a great time!
