   Excellent food. Beautiful views of ocean. Service was good. My husband celebrated birthday and was nicely presented with candle on his choice of desert. Nice.

   We were looking for a nice place to eat for our 41st anniversary and chose Rooneys based on location and ambiance. The food and views were fantastic! Had the tuna bruschetta and seafood cocktail for appetizers, very tasty! I had the mahi mahi broiled with mashed potatoes and asparagus. She had the tuna and carrots, also very tasty. The dessert was gelato in a hard shell chocolate bowl, with caramel drizzle. Good portions were served and we were not rushed. Definitely worth the hour drive and will plan to return!

   LOVE LOVE LOVED Rooney's Came to Long Branch for a girls weekend. Made a reservation for Sunday Brunch through Open Table. The restaurant contacted me to inform me that brunch was unfortunately done for the season and wanted to confirm I wanted to keep my reservation. Their transparency was refreshing and appreciated. We went to check out the restaurant Saturday night and ended up staying for dinner. The food, service and atmosphere was 5 stars. We kept our Sunday reservation as well and were equally impressed. Bravo, Rooney's!

   Dinned here for my birthday wasn’t pleased with seating. They were under construction so the outside dinning was blocked we were sat in the main room it was a decent setting took some pictures. Definitely look at the menu before since its pricy the overall food was a 6/10. I would have rather went somewhere else. Wished they put they were under construction on their site….
