"The kids are staying home and ordering in (they’re actually probably sneaking out with 10 of their friends who are back for the summer), and you want to go somewhere for a nice date night. Check out Yellowfin, a small BYOB seafood spot in Surf City with candlelit tables and white tablecloths. Start with the crispy flatbread topped with slices of avocado and local tuna, and then get the scallops and risotto or perfectly-cooked halibut with lump crab." - alison kessler, regan stephens, matt tervooren, tonya russell

Food was okay but way too expensive for the quality. But besides that, when I checked my credit card statement a few weeks later, I was alarmed to see that I was overcharged by over $200. When I attempted to contact the restaurant (4-5 times), I got no response. We figured out that on the $122 bill with a 20% tip ($24.40), the server entered $244. If you decide to eat here, keep your receipts and check your credit card statements because a waiter leaving at the end of his shift with an extra $244 should've noticed. And so should the manager.

Tried this place on a whim for adult night out...did not disappoint in the slightest! Amazing service the staff is on point! Had the beet salad,calamari, and tomato special to start and was to die for. The pizza,halibut,tuna and scallop special all were perfectly prepared and delicious! Thank you

We have been coming to LBI since the 90s. We just ate here for the first time today. From the time we entered to the time we left the service was amazing. The decor is simple but elegant. The signature fried tomato was interesting and delicious and the rare tuna was the best I have had. This place is a gem.

Food was good. Really liked the tuna pizza and the seared tuna. Service was really good. But the vibe in the restaurant was interesting. Catering to boomers in the suburbs.

Lovely hostess/owner Great wait staff. Extremely attentive. Pretty room, though a bit tight. Tasty food However, extremely over priced. Yikes!

Food was good. However our waiter,Gabriel, was a huge downer. We had a girls weekend and he was actually rude and killed the vibe. Likely won’t return even tho food was good and is BYOB

Made a wait list reservation for the evening. Responded in 4 minutes to the email text about an opening and 40 mins later told I lost the spot because more than one person handled reservations. Instead drove to Buckalews for a marvelous dinner! We now have our favorites!!

French-Asian modern style seafood cuisine that is mainly seafood with some vegetarian options and steak entrees. The food quality is superior and the food is fresh. All the fish is fresh out of water, and prepared with a keen sense of artistry that both the aesthetic principles of the plate itself and your palate will be savouring each morsel. The signature dish since 1997 is No1 Yellowfin Rare seared Tuna slices served over Yukon mashed potatoes infused with wasabi, flash fried bok choy, and a drizzle of miso vinaigrette. Another favorite is pan seared Halibut, miso sticky rice, garlic braised yucca, and finished with a lemon preserve demi glaze. Last but not least, panko crusted heirloom Fried green tomato, topped with thin layer of guacamole and lobster-jumbo lump crab salad piled inches high over the top of the fried tomato. This a treat to die for and it’s not something you will find anywhere. The ambiance is exclusively high end, white table cloths, candlelit rooms with very experienced servers who are extremely knowledgeable about all the different dishes and foods that mightn’t be common to the average person. Friendly and welcoming, they will be reciting the specials whilst opening your bottle of wine or champagne that you brought on your own. Note there is no bar here (as in many restaurants along the jersey shore especially long beach island). Reservations are a must during peak season (memorial day to Labor Day). You may get, on chance get a seat by walking in, if it’s not already fully booked. The interior is a beautiful shade of gray, with lots of mirrors to enhance the visual space of the room. It is a smaller sized venue, sporting only about 16 or 17 tables. Parties of 8 are usually the maximum number that they can fit at a table. Definitely a romantic place, certainly not child friendly, or a place that you want to get a “quick bite” after the beach. This is a place where you want to go with your adult friends or your significant other, dress nicely (neatly casual at least) and enjoy the food and company. Yellowfin is very Manhattan-esque, like a hot spot in soho or the upper west side. It would be safe to assume that the prices are equivalent to what you are getting. Appetisers range from $16-$28, and entrees range from $28-$75. But it’s worth every penny!!
