Review The Wharf - Wildwood

The oysters & steamers were fantastic! My fiance had the seafood risotto which was also delicious! My stuffed seabass was over cooked unfortunately but still yummy. The dessert shooter I had was strawberry shortcake and I loved it. My fiance got the chocolate mousse. The service was a let down. Our waiter didn't inform us of the specials like I heard other waitresses give. The starters (raw oysters & steamers) took over 45 mins to come out so that was a little aggravating. When we wanted refills on drinks it was hard to get because our waiter wasn't coming to check on us. We saw the food runners more than him. I will definitely come back for the food & atmosphere.

Wonderful ambiance sitting on the deck on a warm summer evening listening to live music while looking at boats cruising by. Service was attentive and friendly. Drinks were fair. We had a mudslide and a Margherita. Both were served in plastic cups and were expensive and watered down. Recommend sticking to things like bottled beer. We shared an appetizer of coconut shrimp. There were 6 small shrimp which arrived hot and fresh, if a bit overcooked. Since we wanted to enjoy the ambiance of the deck, the menu there was limited to mostly sandwiches and bar food served with plastic silverware and on plastic dishes, guessing because of being on the deck. We both chose shrimp fra diavolo. It was served hot and fresh, and very spicy. The pasta was overcooked but OK. We both really enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the live music. But the food was just fair, portions were small for the price charged. We paid over $100 before tip for 2 drinks, 1 appetizer and 2 entrées. This place could be really great if the deck menu was better, and the food was prepared better.

Seated quickly outside on the deck on a Monday early afternoon. Beautiful view of the water. Lunch Server was excellent. Drinks and food came quickly. Crab burger and fish tacos were terrific, if a tad pricey. Worth it for the atmosphere though. Free ample parking. French fries cost extra when they ask if you want them or chips. Overall, we would recommend and will return.

Casual dining or a more elegant setting are both available here. Right on the water with pleasant staff. The shrimp poboy was excellent as were the oysters which they had 3 varieties of. There is nothing to complain about here and I promise you won't regret your visit.

This was a special on Friday Aug 25th 2023. There was so many different types of seafood the waitress did you know some of the. Our waitress was awesome. I love coming home for vacation.

Great atmosphere! We went there when Loose Ends played (Wednesdays 6 to 9pm) they are good! Food is yummy too and service is kind, fast, and friendly! Definitely recommend. We go here all the time when we are in Wildwood.

We went to the Wharf to celebrate my mother in law’s birthday. While her jersey family had been there a million times, I had not. Saturday afternoon, beautiful day out, we got a table on the deck and I headed straight to the bar. As soon as I walked up the bartender shook my hand, asked my name and said “Ian, what are you drinking.” First impression A+. The frozen margarita I got was great. Later on we ordered some appetizers and they too were A+. The Bay Fries are amazing and the Philly egg rolls are the very best that I have had. Our table also ordered the fish tacos which looked amazing and I was told they were great. On top of the great food and great service the band playing was great too. Good tunes, people having fun and dancing. Everyone was so nice and just having a great summer day. I would definitely recommend hanging at the wharf.

My boyfriend and I came here and I had the steamed clams, absolutely phenomenal. Our waitress was Emily and she was amazing, very on top of everything, never had an empty drink, brought the check as soon as we asked. Food came out very quick as well. There was live music, great band and very interactive, made the atmosphere better than expected. They also had a girl waking around with jell-o shots which topped the entire experience. Bill was better than anticipated as well, for each of us ordering seafood and 4 drinks total it was $80 before tip. Definitely will be back soon, if not within a couple of days!!

GO AT SUNSET!!! The view is stunning. The standout item is the mashed potatoes 😋 We've been here many times and it's always been GREAT. It was very good this time as well. The seafood cakes special were quite special. The clam chowder was really good. We ordered the tomahawk steak, but they were out 😕 The salmon was substantial and done absolutely correctly. The filet mignon was good. The stuffed mahi mahi was "very, very favorful with an excellent shellfish topping. The risotto was very creamy and full of vegetables". The fried seafood combo was "lightly breaded and done to perfection". Cocktails were refreshing, margarita was "quite tasty". Keylime pie dessert was lucious. Kim, our server, was HUSTLING, but remained an absolute delight and full of great recommendations.

Great place overall. Waitress was fast, food was delicious, it's right on the water so does get crowded. We had live music which was nice. Only reason I gave 4 is because we were literally crammed in like sardines. It was very hard to get out of my seat and my granddaughter was right next to the water and had to climb over the chairs to get out. You do seat yourself though, so I recommend picking your table carefully. Otherwise a wonderful place for all ages!

The food here was good, the service our server Nicole was awesome , great atmosphere for your family and the kids all around great experience

Food and drinks were very good; lots of variety on the menu; outstanding views of sunset.

Spectacular views of the back bay and sunset. Good service with solid food choices.

Went with the kids, had a great time. Apps, dinner and drinks were great. We had the Cheese steak egg rolls, excellent. I went with the crab cake sandwich, also excellent. They had live music, Rachel and Ty, they had the kids up and dancing. It was a lot of fun and we will definitely be back.

Great place! My party went to see the Paul Moore band on the deck. Although crowded, we did find a good table. The cleaning crew made sure each table and seat was FULLY clean before each new dinner was seated. They were there almost as the previous patron left and not just a little wipe. Every chair and the whole table was wiped down with full size towels and lots of cleaner. The servers were also great! Our server, Kerri was right there to ask for our orders and kept checking throughout our stay. Even with the crowd on the deck, she was able to get all our orders filled quickly. The food was good. We had pizza and burgers and salads. We had a fine time and will be returning. I recommend this place for good food, good entertainment and fun.
