Saturday night walked in welcomed and accommodated super fast to a great high top in the bar area. Sweet Natalie was our amazing server for the night she was quick, smart very cute and made for an all around great night along with her side kick Riley who helped for any requests that we needed. He is so adorable and very tall ! Met Lori as well who might have been the manager she was very nice had a nice chat. Food off the charts. Delish! Fun night with everyone can't wait to go back. Jenn the owner is very lucky to have such hard-working and pleasing staff, give them all a big raise! Only thing I would suggest is dim the lights a little in the bar. See ya soon!

We have eaten here a few times. The food is always good. I recommend the pork chop with peaches. For lunch, we had the onion soup which good and filling. My wife had the corned beef Reuben and I had the steak sandwich. Both were delicious. Our waitress was friendly. The restaurant has booths in the bar area and a formal dining. They offer a 5% discount for cash payment. You must tell your server you are paying by cash.

Love this place! The people are great when it comes to service and very friendly. The food is very well made! we didn't have a long wait at all either. The ambiance isn't anything that amazing. Just simple but still nice. I feel everything helps that the decor isn't such a huge deal.

Lefty's is one of our LaSt of its KInD aROuNd Barnegat AnD if yoU havNet beeN gOoOO! The owners are younger and know how to differentiate between the older and younger crowd in Ocean County, there is daily Specials and music on the weekends! The prices and portions of food are MORE than generous and have YOU tried the lobster bisque soup?!? It's any Seafood dish for me from here but especially the garlic clams which again is an incredible PORTION for about $14 ! The coconut shrimp as well are lively and affordable for their size! The service is impeccable and cleanliness is above all the rest I have to say ! The servers are never on their phones or with bad attitudes and always laughing and making great conversation - the way it should be in any friendly local establishment ! I would HiGHLY recommend LeFtYs for AnY HoLiDaY ReSeRVaTiOnS , group dinners , couple outings or just a bite for !
