Energetic tavern featuring a raw bar, seafood, steak & cocktails, plus live weekend music.
"Old Causeway isn’t technically on LBI, but before you insult our geography skills, know that we already heard it all in sixth-grade homeroom, and it still belongs on this guide. Not only is it the last turn before the bridge, but they also have a private shuttle that you can call to take you to and from the island. As the name suggests, there are steaks and oysters on the menu, and while you won’t be upset ordering either here, our favorite thing to get at dinner is the karate-chop pork chop doused in a pineapple-soy glaze. You could also just come for Happy Hour from 3-6pm, have a few drinks at the bar, and eat some spice-rubbed wings and jersey devils, which, for the uninitiated, are deviled eggs topped with fried oysters." - alison kessler, regan stephens, matt tervooren, tonya russell

"Live music on the weekends is the time to go to Old Causeway (1201 East Bay Ave.) — named for the bridge it sits next to — but it gets packed, so go early for dinner and then head to the bar. Oysters and beef are coupled here in wood-fired steaks and burgers topped with fried bivalves, but the rest of the extensive menu is filled with American classics and lots of seafood. It’s always a good time, which the owners are well aware of — if diners drink too much, they can always hop on the restaurant-provided shuttle home." - Stefanie Tuder
