North Jersey offers a diverse, high-quality seafood scene, ranging from upscale Mediterranean-style fish markets to casual, beloved neighborhood spots.
Situated less than 2.5 miles from MetLife Stadium, Biggie’s has been a neighborhood institution located off of Route 17 South in Carlstadt and is best known for its clams-on-the-half-shell and wide selection of beers on tap. My partner, our friends, and I have been to this family-owned establishment numerous times and decided to have dinner last night. The reservation was easily made via OpenTable.
Upon entering this casual vibe, we were greeted by the host. There is a lively sports bar side full of TVs and a dining room side, where we got a booth immediately by the window.
Their menu has a wide array of options, rivaled only by the countless photographs and mementos that fill nearly every inch of wall space. There are many sandwiches, a half-dozen salads, thin-crust pizzas, and a substantial range of pastas.
For starters, we decided on two dozen East Coast oysters on a half shell and Steamed Mussels with white wine butter broth. A side of Italian bread was brought for dipping.
As a main meal, we opted for the Turkey Chili, Baby Back Ribs, Fried Calamari, Caesar salad, and Fries.
The food was excellent and delicious, using the freshest ingredients. The portions were healthy. The staff went out of their way to make one feel welcome, creating a friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Our server was Hadiyah. The price was reasonable.
The Garden State’s seafood scene is a testament to the state’s rich maritime heritage, offering something for every palate, whether one’s a regular or a first-timer. This is why people keep coming back week after week.
Went in the middle of the week in the late evening so it was very quiet it would be interested to see what it’s like on the weekend or if a sporting event is on.
The kids had the best time and are still talking about the fresh French fries, which they confidently claim are “the best in the world.” My grandma ordered the lobster roll and oysters, and everything was incredibly fresh.
I have to say, the service was absolutely flawless. There was a small issue with the bread on the shrimp po’ boy, and the staff was immediately on it. Multiple team members checked in and offered to replace the bread right away. I told them it was totally fine, but the fact that they were so attentive and genuinely wanted to make the experience better meant everything.
A special thank you to Camron (hope I’m spelling that right!)—you truly made our dining experience exceptional. We live far away, but this place is absolutely worth the trip, and we will be returning. Thank you again for such a memorable meal!
SO I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was EXTREMELY disappointing. The food was served cold, which made it clear it had either been sitting too long or wasn’t properly prepared. Cold food ruins the entire dining experience, and it was especially frustrating given the prices.
The manager “Steve” offered to re make my food, which we all know what happens when we send food back, so I kindly declined.
Really that I went out, and spent $57 on ice cold soup, luke shrimp sandwich, and a ghastly chicken sandwich. (wouldn’t feed to my dog)
Hopefully this is something the restaurant can improve moving forward. Not like I would ever know because I would never come back.
Steve, we do appreciate the 20% you took off for the lack luster meal. He was kind of aggressive and not warm.
Sam was a great waitress with proper service, can’t say anything about her.
