Jamian's Food and Drink — Restaurant in Red Bank

Jamian's has been a favorite of ours for many years.  The food is ALWAYS great.  We've kept their teriyaki wings on rotation in our freezer the entire pandemic (great for those nights you find yourself down a netflix rabbit hole at midnight).  In fact all their take out has been wonderful this past year.  They even offer "road soda's" which are mixed drinks canned to go. Our favorite is the sangria. So good! The service is also top notch.  We've seen familiar faces within the entire staff for many years...which says it's obviously a great place to work.  Their support of live local music dominates in Red Bank if not in all of Monmouth county.   We spent many evenings there watching bands in a packed house booming with energy and music.  So much has changed since the pandemic.  But I think Jamian's has really rolled with the challenge successfully.  They have taken every precaution possible to make sure patrons are safe dining inside.  And for those of you (like us) not quite ready to go inside...they also have an awesome back patio.  Two in fact.  One is covered with a bar and TV's.  The other is open with about a dozen picnic tables painted fun reggae inspired colors.  They are very diligent in sanitizing all of them in between customers. Heaters and even a projection screen really make for a fun, comfortable (and safe) night out.  But we sure are looking forward to those musical packed houses again...

Came to Jamians for the first time Saturday night with two friends. We arrived about 9:30. By quarter to we had a table at the window. Nice. Our server came I've to ask what drinks we wanted. We ordered a wine, a beer, and a water. I asked for a menu too. She then brings our drinks to the table one at a time (?). Afterwards I look at the menu and decide what to eat. While we were talking I saw the server come through the crowd and look at our table then turn away faster than I could wave to get her attention. This happened twice. Finally another server approached and asked us if there was anything we needed. I told her we would like the sausage pizza. She then told me the kitchen was closed. It was now 10 after 10. Needless to say I was upset as I had a menu handed to me in time to order but no server to take it. I did not know the kitchen closed at 10 and the server should have told us right away so we could get our order in. To make things worse we had no dinner anticipating eating there. Because the lack of food we cut our stay very short. And if I ever decide to go to back and I will be sure to eat...

We were meeting a few friends there for a birthday just two hours ago. We got there and were expecting a good time with some friends but not expecting the disrespect that was coming our way. After arriving we wanted a place to sit so my mother’s boyfriend goes and talks to the manager for a table and a few chairs. We had grabbed a table and were waiting for chairs after a while I had asked my mom’s boyfriend for a chair not knowing the man had told him to wait. When my mom’s boyfriend had grabbed one chair for me to sit the manager with a very rude attitude and no mask on and very close and aggressive like he says SIR I TOLD YOU WAIT. My mothers boyfriend didn’t take that very well and respectfully went over to the manager and spoke to him. The manager continued to be disrespectful and not listen and finished the argument with I’M NOT SERVING THEM. In the span of 3 minutes we were greatly disrespected and embarrassed. If you plan on going be aware for the horrible customer service. 10/10...
