Great experience at Bare Back Grill. The open air layout allows you to feel the sea breeze and immersed in the beach town atmosphere while protected from the elements. The wait staff was a little impatient initially with getting food and drink orders but also very...Read More

This is a great New Zealand restaurant! The Maui Waui burger I ordered was absolutely perfect. You can really taste the difference between wagyu and regular beef. Fries were nice and crispy too. …

Best burger I have EVER had, and I don't say that lightly. The meat was cooked perfectly, sauce was excellent, bun was soft but still grilled. AMAZING. Atmosphere was fun and exactly what you would expect from a place so close to the boardwalk.

Alex, our server was fantastic. Absolutely loved everything about this place. It was packed and I still didn't feel like I was missing anything or had no attention paid to me. Super super great service. Yay Alex

We stopped here for dinner after a long day at the beach. The service was wonderful and the food was fantastic. My extremely picky teenager absolutely loved the tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich. We recommend this restaurant!

Nice location and very very tasty lamb burger. Menu price is on the pricier side, but I would be happy to come back again, maybe try their happy hour or lunch specials next time.
