We were in for a dinner on Sat evening, and while the place claims to be a restaurant, it is more like bar with giant sports monitors and bar style food (hit and miss, really, after sampling a few dishes). Service was friendly and quick enough, but the bar music was super-loud, so basic conversation was a problem. Location is very picturesque within a stone throw of Wharton State Forest.

I always love coming here! Our server was super nice but maybe kept forgetting about us? Not sure what was going on. But after a long wait for drinks, food, check we decided to go to the bar for some drinks and walk around and then I noticed I had lost my keys, when Ed the front guy (bouncer) noticed we were looking for my keys he then started helping us look all over the place for them he was the sweetest! I finally found them on top of the front desk. Thank you Ed for all your help!

I went to Sweetwater with a friend for their Christmas Walk-through & dinner. We drove an hour to attend & my friend even called ahead to make sure it was accessible the same day. It was advertised as running on a Thursday eve From 5- 8:30. When we arrived none of the holiday wonderland attraction was lit up or available to enjoy. We were a little miffed because nobody mentioned that it would be closed that evening due to ‘windy weather'(not). The restaurant decor was very festive tho & it was trivia night, so we decided to stay. It was also prime rib night but that was a little disappointing also. A woman at the table next to me sent hers back citing it was cold. When she got it back it was overcooked. I hoped mine would be done properly, but alas…also reheated and overdone. I didn’t complain since the night was already less than we planned. Then we played trivia. It involves a remote control & while I was getting some answers right, I had no points. I told the game leader my remote was not working properly but he ‘shamed’ me publicly and said it was my answers. 1/2 way thru, with still 0 points I insisted he check it. I was right. It was broken…so he said it was the 1st time ever & that never happens, so he gave us 150 pts. But he did not retract his earlier snub & we were not able to bounce back, lol. The whole night became laughable and we chalked it up to “Piney-Problems”, lol. The Jersey devil must’ve cursed the place but our Christmas spirit shined brightly, regardless!

Stopped in to our usual summer spot this winter and noticed a positive change since the last time we were here. We tried some new menu items, including the crab cakes, which were so delicious! We will be back again soon!

I attended on December 11, 2025 for dinner and the walk-through light show. I have celiac disease and although they have VERY limited choices that I can choose from (in which I was well aware ahead of time), the gluten-free roll (for a cheesesteak) was AWFUL. The restaurant was not busy at all as it was a Thursday night yet my family of 5 got their food delivered at all different times. At the conclusion of dinner, imagine my surprise that to use to the bathrooms, you have to walk OUTSIDE (it was 30 degrees) only to find the women’s bathroom door open a foot, 2 of the 5 toilets were clogged and disgusting, the refillable soap dispenser cartridge was disabled and sitting on the sink. I don’t want to even think about if the service members even washed their hands after using the bathroom themselves. When I brought the condition of the bathroom to the manager, also mentioning that my bill was $125 and how if Sweetwater is going to open year-round, they need indoors, acceptable bathrooms, the manager only took off 20% after I strenuously encouraged her to view the condition of the bathrooms herself. She should have comped the whole meal. Then, as I inquired about light show, the waitress said that because of the wind they canceled it for the night. Not one person mentioned that until we were ready to go through it. Save your money. Go see lights and enjoy a better meal elsewhere. Will not be returning anytime soon.

Just left this establishment and returned home, such a terrible experience there today.
We arrived and were promptly seated (good so far) I ordered the chicken parm with vodka sauce and fries my wife got a chicken cheesesteak with chips.
First the service was so bad we sat for the longest time before even being acknowledged and it really wasn’t crowded. Finally we placed our order (it took forever to get to us) my chicken parm sandwich was room temp at best and the chicken was so over cooked. Either they burnt the chicken or their fryer has old dirty oil because the sandwich tasted awful. My wife’s sandwich came with house made chips and they were burnt and very bitter tasting the same as my sandwich. When getting ready to leave the server asked if we needed “boxes” I responded one box only for my wife’s 1/2 of sandwich as mine was awful and I wouldn’t be taking it. After waiting 10 minutes for the box we decided to leave without taking anything. While waiting for the box we noticed our server sitting at a table chatting with friends. I’m out a total of $71 but I’ll never return there again. Terrible food, Terrible service but nice job on the Christmas decorations!

Sweetwater Marina & Riverdeck is an absolute dream venue! The marina backdrop is breathtaking, between the water views and sunset, it’s picture-perfect from every angle. The space has such a fun yet relaxed vibe, with decks both upstairs and down, giving guests plenty of room to enjoy the view.
Chris was truly amazing to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect and made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. You can tell he genuinely cares about each couple and their day.
The food was incredible, from the cocktail hour to dinner, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests are still raving about it! And the drinks were just as amazing, the bartenders crafted everything to perfection and kept the energy up all night.
For how beautiful this venue is, the price is unbelievably reasonable. You get the full waterfront experience, amazing food and drinks, and a team that truly delivers. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate!

First off I came here just to drink and watch a band. It was a perfect day weatherwise so it was awesome to see all the boats in the marina. Tons of Bikers were here which was cool to see as well (see video). Beer service was quick. I had a great time. Yes its off the beaten path but its worth it.

Sweetwater Marina & Riverdeck is an absolute gem in the Pine Barrens. The staff is welcoming, the marina is well maintained, and the restaurant has great food and a perfect atmosphere right on the river. Whether you’re pulling in by boat, finishing a paddle, or just coming for a meal, it’s one of the best spots around to relax and enjoy the water. We’re grateful to have such a great local business in our community!
