The Barge Restaurant and Banquet Facility

I went to a holiday party for a group. There were 3 other parties going on in the resturant, so service was a bit stressed, however everything was excellant. I had the barge special and the crabmeat filling was REAL crab meat , I had nice large pieces of leg meat not the process crab sea legs made of fish and fillers that many places try to pass off as crab filling.
My only concern was the restrooms were freezing. Seriously not just chilly, but felt like there was no heat in the room at all.

I’ve been here twice calling for a reservation seating was available wonderful greeting when I arrived and all servers / waiters very polite, very willing to make sure your every need in met all done in an impressive timely fashion food was amazing oysters Rockefeller for a appetizer and for our main course was stuffed lobster and also the variety of seafood over linguine is my recommendations but we were so full and satisfied that we could not order coffee or dessert but maybe next time we’ll start with coffee and dessert very reasonably priced portions are very nicely put together. Oh did I mention the sangria came cold and really hit the spot Hope this helps. Keep your taste buds dancing have fun. Enjoy.

A very quaint spot for lunch and dinner on the waterfront with a great view of Staten Island and the Raritan Bay. Clams casino made with whole clam, not chopped. The quality of the seafood is outstanding. The service is excellent. Highly recommend.

We were pleasantly surprised!
The place looked a bit tired with worn carpet, and for that probably hasn’t changed since it’s hay day or generation ago. But it was cleaned with white tablecloth. We were, understandably, blown away by the quality of the food that came out.

The calamari appetizer was fried to perfection. The portion was generous and the marinara sauce tasty. It filled up the two of us before we even got our entrées.

The burger was cooked just as I requested and tasted fresh with good quality beef. Even the kaiser roll on which it was placed was fresh and complemented the burger.

The seafood combo was good and came with a choice of potatoes. We chose home fries. They will cooked well with some crispness not rushed out like some restaurants

I was impressed with the quality of the food. The scene of the Raritan Bay is also impressive, and it appears that in the warm weather there is probably outdoor seating. I definitely recommend this place for the quality of the food which is, after all, why are you go out!
