Uncle Vinnie's Clam Bar

Jennifer Loughran

I hit up Uncle Vinnie’s for a quick meal before headed home and had the most wonderful experience. The vibe is welcoming, the little necks were spicy and delicious, and the Scallops were caramelized to perfection. Such a cool and laidback but hustling vibe. Dying to try their raw bar selection. Next time!

First time at Vinnie’s tonight and what more can I say than 5 stars. Food is impeccable and some of the freshest seafood I’ve ever had. Add great service on top of that and you have an amazing restaurant.

Where do I begin. What a great place! If I could give it ten stars I would. From the moment we walked in and we’re greeted by Lou, the owner, had drinks at the bar served by Anthony, and had Mike as our server it was second to none. Food was out of this world. Soft shell crabs, great appetizers, nice wine selection. I wanted an obscure after dinner drink that is almost impossible to find and they had no problem making that for me. This is just a great local hometown feeling place. Not the first time I’ve been here but it felt like I was a regular that comes here often. That’s just the way the place feels. Old school, great feeling place. Let me add this. Being a US Marine, I have a special feeling for Raritan whereJoe Basilone is from. A decorated Marine from world war II. Being a Marine myself it was great that, Mike, our server was also a Marine. In addition, Lou, who was not in the Marine Corps, gives wonderful support to the Joe Basilone parade that is done every year and has received special recognition from the USMC for his wonderful contributions to that event. Our 2 hour dinner for my daughters birthday lasted over 4 hours and we didn’t want it to end. If you want a wonderful old time experience in a local neighborhood restaurant with great food, this is the place to go!!!

Great local spot if you are in the mood for seafood! I had heard about it and was also recommended to give the place a visit. The food was amazing and fair priced! The atmosphere was very relaxing and we had no trouble finding parking. Glad I came here, definitely won’t be my last visit either! I am also passing along the recommendation on this place! 5 Star all the way on this place!
