Spicy Garden — Restaurant in Manasquan

My kind of place: Great food, affordable prices, extremely friendly staff, nice decor, clean and spacious restrooms, and importantly, open pretty late and willing to seat new customers even 20 minutes before closing time.

I got a hot green tea and seafood curry. Portion was very decent, with a lot of tender sea scallops, shrimp, battered and fried chunks of fish, and half a lobster tail, along with a large variety of perfectly tender-crisp veggies. For the price I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of seafood. My dining partner got another seafood dish with chicken and veggies that was also very nicely prepared.

My only complaint is the Thai pop music piping overhead is not really my thing, but the volume was sufficiently low to basically ignore it, and it's probably better than just dead silence. Overall great value and a healthful, relaxing meal. Also BYOB, another plus for locals. For us city folks, it's a nice place to grab dinner and skip the traffic on the way home after a day...

Highly recommend! I was craving Thai tonight and the place I normally go to - which is quite pricy - had a 40 minute wait even for my takeout order/not dine in. So, I Googled and saw Spicy Garden come up nearby. I hadn’t heard of it but was willing to try - and I’m so glad I did! The woman I ordered from was so sweet on the phone and in person. It was nice to interact with a friendly voice and face. I was astounded by the portion size of my pad Thai! Much better value than my other place, and cooked to perfection. All the vegetables weren’t too crisp or too soft - just right in between. The tofu was flavorful, and the noodles were covered in sauce - just how I like them, not dry! Price was more than fair, and I’m very happy to have found this gem! Will definitely be...

Spicy Garden was an accidental find and is now definitely an all time favorite! An Asian Fusion menu that will delight your pallet! The food is all made to order and absolutely delicious! The owners are very welcoming and totally attentive to the customers individual tastes. it’s truly a hidden treasure which I consider a great find and I believe you will too! Give it a try, I’m sure you’ll love it! It’s definitely a family favorite in my house as well as for my friends who have become...
