2 reviews for Jakeabob's Bay Inc
Great little place right on the water on Raritan Bay in Union Beach. Beautiful views of Manhattan, the Verezanno Bridge, even Brooklyn if it's clear. When the weather is nice, the tables are on a pier right over the water-very cool. They just opened a tiki bar and will have live music most nights, great place to hang out on a summer night.
We hadn't been there in awhile and the menus have changed........my favorite combo "peel & sqeal" (ribs & shrimp) is no longer offered. However, there is an extensive menu, lots of seafood, steak, chicken, pasta. Gigi's famous ribs are the best-very tender covered with a sweet sauce that has a kick. We also got a special, a scallop & crabmeat scampi over pasta that was excellent. I've gotten steak here in the past and has been great. Entrees do come with salads-most are priced between $17-$25. Sangria is big here, several people had pitchers on their tables-will try it next time. Desserts are very good, I recomend the chocolate lava cake.
The downside of eating outside are the bugs-as the sun went down, tiny little bugs were everywhere and very annoying. The cintronella candles on the tables don't stay lit with the wind............maybe tiki torches along the railings might help.
Nice, casual place right on the water with very good food.
Not great but not terrible. Some of the shellfish was not totally washed so that there was some sand in it. A little too crunchy for my taste. Setting is great.
