   Just back from a lovely lunch at Scarborough. We three enjoyed our crab cake and chicken soprano choices, along with nice wines. Great desserts of flourless chocolate cake, pumpkin cheesecake and tiramisu. Our server (I think, Alana?) was wonderful. She was perfectly attentive and didn't rush us. The holiday decorations are spectacularly charming and really put us in the Christmas spirit.

   Tyler was a very attentive server. The menu is very limited. Food was good but not worthy of the prices. The decorations do not hold a candle to Charlie’s in Bay Head. This is a nice place for a special occasion but if you want entrees under $50, this is not the place to go.

   Our party of 4 was seated at a table for 6. We had made a reservation weeks earlier. Our caesar salads were terrible. We were served soup spoons for desert as they said they ran out of regular spoons. Three out of four disliked their entrees. Our waitress had an attitude. There were tables left uncleaned for over a 1/2 hour next to us and wern't cleaned up till we made a comment. Don't think we ever be going back.

   We arrived early for our reservation. Restaurant was packed. It is beautifully decorated for Christmas and felt very festive. The servers and bar were slammed so the service was not quite up to par. My husband wanted to taste a glass by the wine prior to making a decision but server talked him out of it bc the bar was so busy he may have to wait a while to get it. He ordered the glass and it was fine but it was disappointing to know that they couldn’t accommodate the request. I ordered a regular old fashioned but got the one that was a fall special on the drink menu. Again, I settled for this drink bc I didn’t want to wait however long to get a new one. The portions have definitely shrunk and the prices are the highest they’ve ever been. We got the scallops special, $56, which had about 6 small scallops with crabmeat layer under them and a few asparagus on the side. Portion was on the smaller side and was just ok as far as flavor. The other dish was a fried black bass over shrimp risotto. The fish was pan seared and had a nice light crisp finish. However, the risotto had no shrimp at all. The menu description included shrimp but there were no shrimp in the dish. Still it was very tasty. The NY style pumpkin chocolate cheesecake was also average. It was a pumpkin cheesecake with a chocolate drizzle and a dollop of whipped cream.

    Tgis was my first visit to this establishment and I LOVED it!! We enjoyed a cocktail special at the bat before dining. The food was OUTSTANDING!! The pricing is more Midtown Manhattan than Monmouth County but I don’t mind paying for good food. Well done!
