The Point - Sea Isle City — Restaurant in Sea Isle City

Crabbin’ and Vibin’ – A Family Gem Near the Bridge

Our family loves+ crabbing under the 9th Street Bridge in OCNJ—it's one of our favorite vacation rituals. But this time, on the way out of town, we discovered something we should have known about way sooner: The Point in Somers Point. And now it's officially part of the tradition.

This place? PERFECT. We’ve got a big toddler, a big kid, and two teens—so finding a restaurant that hits the mark for everyone is rare. But The Point nailed it. First off, the whole spot is basically built on sand—my kids genuinely thought we were at the beach. Add live music (a hilarious duo playing classic beach covers you can sing to), shaded tables, and tons of space to play? Heaven.

We grabbed a comfy six-top in the sand, ordered lunch, and played giant Connect Four and cornhole while we waited. (Which wasn’t long!) The food? Even better than the vibes. The crab fries with creamy cheese sauce were gone in seconds. The Caribbean crab cake? A whole situation—fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable. Everyone left full, happy, and a little sun-kissed.

We’ll be back for sure—whether it’s a pre-crabbing fuel-up or a post-crabbing victory meal. The Point is...

I waited a while to write this review because I wanted to wait till a little love creeped back in my heart after this incident. A rant doesn't do anyone any good. So here goes. Two months ago my grand-daughter, her boyfriend and some friends went to The Point for a bite to eat and some cocktails. Although they ordered a chicken quesadilla, they were mistakenly served a shrimp quesadilla--which they ate much of before realizing it was shrimp, not chicken. This caused someone in the party to literally go into a life threatening allergic reaction. As they scrambled to get him help, the server and the manager played the unhelpful role of denying that it even happened. While some of them attended to their sick friend, the rest of them were handed a padded bill with stuff on it they didn't order. If you or someone you love has food allergies, or any self respect at all, don't risk going to this place. Mistakes can happen, yes, but mean and rude is avoidable in EVERY situation. By the way, The Point, after a rough night and medical...

Two of the specialty drinks are Orange and Strawberry crushes at $9.50 a drink. The orange crush is suppose to made with fresh OJ, orange flavored stoli vodka and seltzer, well it appears the demand is too much for the Fresh OJ, so they are substituting with a budget OJ and in addition they sometimes forget to put the alcohol in the drink, so you are paying $9.50 for generic inexpensive OJ. I called the bartender on it and he admitted he forgot to put the vodka in the drink, SO BE VERY AWARE!!! We then watched a bartender make a margarita and they did not put tequila in the drink ~ what a ripoff. We were hoping it would be a nice spot for an afternoon cocktail, but it looks like we will be going elsewhere. In addition to the customers getting ripped off, the owner is getting ripped off as we watched a BT take $2.00 for the tip canister from the register when given $11.00 for...
