Summer is here !!!

Hope everyone is enjoying the warmer weather as we approach the busy season....

We are thrilled in the kitchen as The Garden State's bounty is increasing as we go further into the summer months. Look for menu changes in multiple areas. Strawberries, all sorts of leafy greens, asparagus, herbs, and so much more ! Check out our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/#!/AtlanticBarandGrill for updates on what's local on a weekly basis as well as specials and upcoming events.

We now have local Scallops and Alaskan Salmon on the menu as well as baby Pennsylvania Lamb Porterhouse steaks, Prosciutto Americano from our friends at La Quercia in Iowa and domestic Blue Crab Meat for our Crab Cakes....

We will change the menu again slightly about mid -July when we start to get corn, squashes, peppers, tomatoes and carry that menu until the farmers tell us there is no more.

In other news.... We were so happy to be a part of two great events this past week. The Barnegat Bay Festival in Island Heights and the "Red, White, and Brew" Charity event at the Toms River Country Club.. Great to meet some of you face to face and appreciate your positive feedback on the changes we are making at the restaurant.

Hope to see you soon!
