Restaurant Review

The reason you come to this the Jersey Shore restaurant is to experience the unbeatable ocean view from the inside bar and the outside Tiki Bar eating area. It's a great place to come if your want to enjoy a leisurely drink for dinner at the bar and aren't interested in gourmet food. The bar is set up against a huge glass window looking down on the beach and the ocean. It's a 4 star view, the best on the Jersey Shore, which largely makes up our 3 star Decor rating.

Sad to say, this Jersey Shore restaurant has a chef that hasn't yet mastered the art of cooking seafood. The seafood selections tend to be overcooked and dried out.

Owners, Karen Marzulli and Chico "Mister C" Perrotto, relocated their establishment from Deal to Allenhurst, just north of Asbury Park, in 2006.

The large dining room's decor is weathered dark-wood paneling, with many bamboo potted plants placed around. If you are looking for an ocean view as you dine, ask to be seated near the front of the room otherwise you lose the benefit of coming to Mister C's.

The servings of food start off on a good note with good, warm bread and a good complimentary salad with honey mustard dressing, then it's down hill from there.

For starters, try the Tuna Tartar, the Fried Calamari, or their special soups.

For dinner entrees, stay away from the the seafood dishes and the filet mignon. They tend to be overcooked and dry, especially the Tilapia, and when available, the special Wahoo Steak.

Try the Rigatoni Norma tossed in herbed tomato sauce topped with dollops of fresh ricotta, and fresh basil: and the Penne Vodka with spiced vodka pink creme sauce over penne.

For desserts, try the Toll House cookie or the Key Lime pie.

They are family and kid friendly and have a children's menu.

The service is very friendly and attentive.
