Reviews for The Smithville Inn in Absecon, NJ
The wasabi tuna entree, bacon, and salmon lunch won ton apps were delicious. Burger, a little dry. Server could be trained... better at carrying drinks. Like martinis or white wine. Otherwise, very cute, charming and friendly place. Read more
My husband and I went there on Friday night with another couple and were treated with professional care from the valet parking... attendant, the hostess, the manager Russell and our server Brianna..The food was delicious and the piano player was veryentertaining also all the staff was very attentive to keeping our water filled and tables clean. We had prime rib and the Tunadinners and French onion soup all very very good and the homemade toasted coconut cheesecake was one of the best ever a musttry. Read more
First of all, this restaurant is in a beautiful spot surrounded by quaint shops, and the atmosphere is fantastic. The three... stars are for some of the best wait staff I've been helped by, great appetizers (and some of the best French onion soup I'veever had), good dessert and very well-made drinks. Unfortunately, the entree I got was very strange and disappointing. Theseafood scampi (which was mussels, shrimp, scallops and lobster on fettuccine) was smothered in a very odd, thick, starchy,salty substance which was not reminiscent of any scampi I've ever had. It was more like phlegm, had a very worrying smell andflavor (I was worried it was off), and was not enjoyable. Next time I will get a steak and hopefully that will make for a 5-starevening.

Had a great dinner experience at The Smithville Inn! The staff was awesome, very accommodating and helpful. There were 13 of us... and service was perfect! Food was delicious! No one at our table had a bad meal, everyone loved the food. For some, it was theirfirst time at the Inn and said they can't wait to come back. Read more
Wonderful experience! I'm from the area and have not been here in a long time. Our waiter Mike was fun and knowledgeable. Always... had a smart quip about something going on at our table. Read more
A quaint and cozy restaurant within a beautiful and historic shopping area. Waitstaff service was friendly and attentive (though... the manager was throwing a bit of a temper tantrum when we arrived. Frankly rude to a customer asking a question). Soup was roomtemperature but flavorful. Entree portions were huge and tasty. I just didn't like the feeling we were a hindrance for making alate reservation, which the manager definitely did. Read more
