   We went for New Year’s Eve dinner and they were so accommodating. We brought our 9 month old son and they sat us in a corner with a high chair so we didn’t feel in the way. They had a singer that sang a Disney song to my son. 5 course meal was delicious. Owners came over multiple times to check on us. 100% will be going back.

   Our waitress of 17 years was outstanding. The food, all courses, outstanding. Perfect way to ring in new year. Cheers, to those who bring NYC to LBI, we thank you. Best the Bonanni’s.

   Loved it! So charming—Owner Steve and his wife are lovely and the Chef was accommodating to food allergies/restrictions. Can’t wait to go back in April when they open for 2023!! Note: BYO!

   Drafty and cold. Given the extreme temperatures outside you should have increased the temperature inside to compensate for it and maybe you should think about updating windows, heating and insulation in attic.

   This was an elegant, well-prepared meal. There was too much food for me, but my husband managed very well. The octopus was a bit tough. The chocolate dessert was really good. We were a bit surprised, after paying $150 for a meal, to be charged $6 each for coffee at the end.

   We wanted something special for Christmas Eve and we’re delighted to get a reservation at the Gables. Everything about was fantastic. The imaginative and unique five course meal was just what the holiday called for. Many thanks to the owners and staff for continuing to bring LBI a truly special experience.

   Service, cuisine were top shelf. Ambiance in the historic building charming decorated for Christmas, however uncomfortably cold. Perhaps a summer visit may be more enjoyable. The value for the special off 5 course Christmas eve menu was very expensive. Overall beat you’ll find in LBI.

    This is hard to write because the food and service were excellent. But the room was ice cold when we arrived a 5 PM, the time we had reserved and confirmed several times. There was a major cold front passing through, which might have made it excusable in a room full of picture windows, but the vestibule where people were seated and the adjacent dining room were toasty. This should have been a wonderful experience, especially for the $300 plus tax and tip we paid for Christmas dinner instead of a disappointment.

    We had a wonderful dining experience at The Gables. The menu was a fixed price with many options. Our group had cauliflower soup, caesar salad, onion tart, scallops, filet mignon and every dish was wonderful. Substantial portions too. Our server was helpful and very efficient.

    Always an excellent well presented meal! A bit pricy but in the end worth it. Service was good, but could have been as great by filling the water glasses, being attentive to the wine pours ,etc. might be a bit picky but given the overall quality experience of the Gables it would be helpful.

    The Gables experience is beyond compare. My wife and I celebrated my brother’s 67th birthday on Saturday night. It was his first time at The Gables and he was so happy, especially with the wait staff, the wonderful piano player, the magnificent setting and the delicious food. Also, we chatted and laughed with owner Steve which was the cherry on top of the cake. The Gables is easily the best restaurant on LBI and one of the best in NJ.

    Had Thanksgiving dinner and it was fantastic. Great food and excellent service. Really enjoyed the music being played. It was rock songs with no vocals played by orchestra’s. It was played very quietly in the background but very interesting concept.
