The service was outstanding. Jorge took care of our every need. The pace of service was terrific. The halibut was prepared perfectly and we both enjoyed it. The Mr Barry salad was very good.

The Good and the Bad The Good: Beautiful restaurant with beautiful views of the Navesink. Elegant set tables with fine stem ware and tablecloths My Salmon entree was very good. French onion soup very good. The Bad Entering the hotel there is no one to greet you and direct you to the restaurant. We came in through the bar and the wrong door because of this and the person who finally helped us turned out to be our waitress. The restaurant was busy but only one waitress and busboy and two other young girls walking back and forth. The waitress who was very nice was also busy bussing tables so less attention paid to the diners. Lack of attention it took sometime for her to take our dinner order. The chef needs to train someone on the grill. The $45 veal chop looked more boiled than grilled and the cut might not have been the chop cut. Also needed seasoning and a proper char. The veal was gray and sad. The $47 rack of lamb was not a rack but a bunch of skinny baby lamb chops without seasoning and not properly grilled. Also sad looking. While we were eating a young couple sat nearby with the guy wearing a backwards baseball cap. In a formal dining room there should be a minimum dress code without baseball caps but they probably don't want to lose the customer and yet it probably cost them 7 other customers who are turned off and don't return. We made it a birthday reservation but the dessert didn't have the little candle

I had heard good things about the Molly Pitcher Inn brunch for years and was excited to finally try it, but unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We were seated in a separate, empty room away from the main dining area, and when I asked to sit in the main area instead, I was told seating was assigned — though this wasn’t explained clearly. We came with three children (ages 12, 12, and 13) and were given a breakfast menu, but our waitress seemed overwhelmed and inefficient, making multiple unnecessary trips and leaving us sitting with only drinks for over 20 minutes while our food order wasn’t even taken. Meanwhile, the main dining area seemed equally chaotic, and it was clear the restaurant was severely understaffed despite having two hosts at the front. Overall, this was not the brunch experience I had hoped for, and sadly, I won’t be returning.

As always, the food and service always meet our expectations! Never disappoints. The staff were excellent and went above and beyond…one of our party was in a wheelchair and the staff did not hesitate in assisting, getting from the upper level to the window table. We were willing to sit above, but they insisted that we sit window side, especially since the was a large party up there! Having said that, I think it would be much more compliant if in the occasion when needed, there was a small portable(removable )ramp to allow easy access to the window seating! Thank you!

Normally, the food at Molly Pitcher is excellent, however, this time, not so. We were there to celebrate a birthday and an anniversary. My husband and I were married at MP last year. My food was served cold. He received the wrong entree, and my sister was served a sauce to go with her steak that tasted like water that was discolored. Very disappointing. Our server was very distant, and did not seem to be concentrating on us. She seemed distracted. The manager did make amends, and removed the steak dinner from the bill, and my sister ordered another entree. Once my entree was warmed, it tasted delicious. My husband's correct entree was also delicious.

Very elegant atmosphere, beautiful view of the marina. But it is also unpretentious with very friendly, helpful servers.
