Marblehead Chowder House NJ

NJ Turnpike Exit 5 & the 541 corridor desperately needed a good restaurant and bar and finally got it.

Marblehead serves fresh seafood prepared to order any way you chose. My blackened Rock Fish was flaky, delicious, came with two sides and worth $24. My whiskey pour was generous and served by an attentive bartender. Definitely recommend.

We totally enjoyed our first visit here after seeing glowing reviews on Open Table. One of the top ten places to visit in Burlington County. And if you want to know what it’s like to visit an Ogunquit, Maine restaurant on the water this is the place. Without the water, of course.

Joan was our waitress and no mater what your age is she will give memories of mom. She will attend to your every wish with a smile and a funny comment. We love Joan.

Now before you say the crab cakes look anemic let me say it’s all crab with very little filler, mostly seasonings surrounded the lumps. And it is extremely filling with your tartar or cocktail sauce. I got the Chef’s Vegetables and the bride got the Crispy Sweeties both which were great. I would pass on the Cesar Salad. Good but out of a bottle.

Be sure to try the Lobster Bisque. Hearty and delicious and very filling. Do not eat too much bread which is warm and fresh.

No room for dessert this time. We signed up for the Captain’s membership card to get discounts in the future. Believe me, we will be back because it will take a year to try that menu!

Full Seafood menu. The food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend the shrimp and scallops with the lobster risotto. Could not get enough! They also had the best french onion soup I've ever had! My only problem is they would not give me the recipe. Haha! This is the place to visit if you love Seafood. I can't wait to go back and try the lobster tails!

We were seated in the sun room which I loved because it was nice and bright. Our server Bernie was very attentive, he knew what recommendations to make and was very knowledgeable. He offered up additional information about music on Mondays which was appreciated. Overall everything was great. No complaints.

The service and atmosphere are the best thing. We went during trivia night and happy hour, definitely recommend that, tons of fun and really brought out the atmosphere. The service was phenomenal as well, our server Yuran, was amazing and the food was brought out so quickly. The food is not the best food you have ever tried but not the worst either, it’s definitely above average. The clam chowder soup is definitely worth the try though along with hot crab dip. The prices are fair and not unreasonable for the type of restaurant.
