Just got back been there since 6 was told half hour wait no problem and accurate on that… the sauce was horrible and tasted like metal very gross when my wife mentioned it to the server she said she wasn’t going to take it off the bill but she wasn’t the customer how did she know there wasn’t anything wrong with it? I didn’t like it the food was bad. She had a bad attitude. We had to wait over an hour and a half for our food with no check ups. My wife asked the server kindly how much longer that my 2 year old was getting restless because she is hungry and the server ignorantly said I don’t know. Didn’t even bother to check. If your gonna charge $18 for just spaghetti then you should be making it fresh as advertised. Sons food was cold, didn’t even offer or serve with tarter and the fish was way over cooked, meatballs were cheaply made just gross. Learn how to handle complaints when you have the chance. Don’t waste the hard earned money here, definitely don’t recommend

We go back here for a family meal every year. Its old-school Italian at the beach. They no longer take reservations, which I thought was odd. We had a party of 6 and waited about 30 minutes. There were some large parties going on at that time as well. Apps and salads were good and entrees were prepared well. Dinners now take about 2 hours during this difficult time for restaurants. They are doing a good job.

This is listed as Italian Seafood restaurant. They have a great selection of common Italian dishes and many unique ones with seafood blended in. I have had many over the years and they are always excellent. They staff is friendly. Prices are in line with all shore restaurants. The atmosphere is a little dated but acceptable. Wine, beer and mixed drinks available. If you want to move up a notch in shore food stop in here.

I stumbled upon this restaurant many years ago. Haven't had the pleasure of being back since 2012. Well that changed on Saturday. Our server Tiffany was amazing. The food was amazing! Exactly how I remembered! Thank you!!!

A client of mine referred Alfe's and happy that my family and I stopped in for dinner! Service was great and food was tasty. Our waitress, Candace, was extremely friendly and offered great recommendations off the menu. Highly recommend this place!

A great restaurant to visit while in town. While it is located under a bowling alley, you'll never hear any noise from above. They have some of the best NE clam chowder around and give the Lobster House a run for their money! Their Caesar salads are amazing and I love the steamed clams. My go to dinner is the Shrimp Scampi over Linguini and it always comes out perfect. I suggest the early bird menu as they can fill the restaurant fast!

Nice place for Italian food. It an old fashioned ambiance, but not dated. We appreciated the spacious seating with plenty of room between diners. The food was very good and our waitress was fantastic. Recommend the "Jackie" sauce, loaded with seafood.

Horrible!!!!! Our waiter Giovanni very good, nothing that happened was his fault. We had an hour wait to be seated, no problem, after we were seated we waited 2 hrs. for our food. There’s no prices on the menu. My linguine and clams were filled with sand.($26.95) Another dish, grouper Jackie tasted disgusting. Only a bite was taken and the rest was left. A $44.95 dish. Just leaving my true review. Will never go again. I’m leaving a picture of the receipt so people can see how much the dishes are

We dined at Alfe’s through a hotel promotion offering a discount. The waitress warned us that we were limited to the early bird special and the portions would be children sizes. Rest assured the portions are more than adequate and come with a cup of soup, salad, entree, and dessert. The quality of the food is excellent! My shrimp scampi was delicious! The salad was delicious! The portions are what I would consider full portions. I highly recommend Alfe’s! Please remember to tip based on what the full menu price would have been before the discount.

We came here for dinner around 8 pm while spending the weekend in July in Wildwood. We were seated right away in their covered outdoor area which was comfortable in the cool night air, though out table was on a noticeable slant. I ordered the Taste of Italy, a sampler of their pastas (gnocchi, stiffed shells, ravioli, and spaghetti) and my partner ordered the grouper special with Jackie sauce (white wine, butter, seafood - shrimp, scallops, crabmeat?) Our meals came with a house salad in house dressing, a rich italian/parmesaen sauce, evenly coated over each bite with large chunks of juicy tomato, shaved parmesean, and iceberg which was very good. We also got a complimentary basket of Italian bread, a sliced sesame loaf with whipped butter and olive oil with capers, red pepper, and olives for dipping. Between the appetizers and entrées, we were served a complimentary scoop of lemon sorbet, topped with a sprinkle of zest as a palette cleanser, which was a nice refreshing, cool intermezzo. The fish dish came out nicely, a large thick tender steak portion with a bright, slightly thick, and savory sauce. The rest of the shellfish was cooked to perfection, not overdone or rubbery. Overall good, but nothing so amazing as to justify to $50 MP. My dish was served topped with a hearty meatball and a chunk of Italian sausage. The pasta was cooked to a pleasing soft bite, but not quite al dente. The ravioli was the highlight with its slightly sweet ricotta cheese filling and the stuffed shells a close second. I enjoyed the gnocchi, which was pillowy and not super dense as to be too toothsome. The red sauce was a bit lackluster, a slightly savory, reduced tomato puree with tomato paste (ala 'plain' tomato sauce), without any balancing sweetness or aromatics e.g. garlic/dried herbs. Definitely on the acidic side, disappointingly one dimensional like warmed up sauce from a can. I would have preferred a more mellowed out pasta sauce, tempered in tartness with mirepoix or at the very least sautéed onion. For our two mains we waited for over 30 mins between courses. However, the portions were sizeable, and we took home enough leftovers for a second (and maybe even third) meal.

Food was mixed. There certainly was a lot of it. The bread and salad were great. The calamari were great. I would get this again. Main courses produced mixed results. Our waitress was a sweet heart. Overall it wasn’t bad but i am interested in trying other options.

We went last night for salads & were disappointed. Her Cesar salad had no cheese on top and stale croutons. My antipasto most likely was true Italian, but had almost no lettuce. I guess I’m use to an American style salad with a good plentiful lettuce base. The tuna seemed right out of a can. We did turn away the bread & oil but it might have been the best part of the meal. Our favorite place to eat Italian in town is Little Italy’s, Wildwood Crest. Their antipasto salad for two (same price) is the last picture. You decide.

I went with my family (two couples) on a Saturday evening. The food was amazing. The prices are reasonable considering they give a lot of food, including salad and pasta with your plate. I choose the “blackened sea bass” (pictured). My wife grilled sea bass (pictured). Both were delicious. They had live music. Good service. And they close late considering the area (most restaurants closed at 10:00pm). I definitely come back to these place.

From salad to dessert, the food was delicious. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was very comfortable and relaxing. All in all it was a wonderful dining experience.

If I could give no stars I would!!! The last time we were here we had a very nice experience, our waiter was a younger man and he was the only reason we wanted to come back. just shows service means everything. Our waitress (Patrice) was completely rude and inhospitable. I asked for a side of limes with my water she proceeds to walk up to me with three slices of lime on a skewer and stood there waiting for me to take it instead of serving them in a bowl or plate. When filling up our water glasses she decided to reach over us instead of filling them from across the table. Also taking things without asking if we were finished. No manners at all and inattentive. Didn’t ask us if we needed anything or desert. Not to mention, they have no prices on their menu you have to have a mobile phone to scan a QR code if you want to be directed to their website which has completely different prices than listed on their menu provided by google. Which I was rudely responded to when inquiring about why the prices were different. She said it could’ve been from 5 years ago……. Well, shouldn’t someone be checking up on that and updating it? If you are sensitive to sound do not come here either as it is very loud and I had to sit through dinner with my coat on because it is so freezing in there. This was the first time ever eating out where I didn’t leave a tip. Rude service rude management and an upsetting experience for my girlfriends birthday dinner. And Watch out for the “hostess” manager or whoever the large woman is at front because she was nasty too. I think her name is Susan? Not worth coming here at all. The only nice thing I could say about this place is they have a very nice bartender. P.S. they charge 4$ for paying with a card. Not to mention how overpriced their items are that isn’t even worth it. No wonder they try to hide it from the menu. 13$ for 4 pieces of shrimp cocktail? 32$ for shrimp with pasta?! It’s a good thing we didn’t ask for extra salad of bread as they charge an extra 10$ ! Charging high prices for low quality food and service.

This restaurant is amazing! Food is delicious, every dish is good! The house salad is a must! Good service.

This place was amazing. It was worth the wait. It has a big interior with just the right amount of lighting. The food was amazing. They first brought out this fresh bread with what seemed like fresh whipped butter, and olive oil on the side. With the best salad I have ever had in my life. If salad tasted like this, I would still not be skinny because i will overeat. As an appetizers we ordered steam clams in a white sauce. This was food heaven. The clams were cooked perfectly. For the entre, I had chicken with a cheese on top and a mushroom sauce. I forgot the name. Over linguine pasta. It was delicious. The chicken was tender and full of flavour. The pasta was perfect, not over cooked and not under cooked. Oh! The drinks. They do have a bar, which you see when you walk in. And then we had dessert. One of the best tiramisu cakes I've had. It was over all amazing. The best italian restaurant I've gone to. Definetly worth the price. We were expecting a heftier bill for our meals, but the prices were very reasonable. Edit: more photos.

The food was OK, the service good, the atmosphere not bad. The hostess was fairly miserable. Hence the missing stars. The waitress was very nice. She made a nice little birthday dish for the birthday girl in our party.

I highly recommend Alfe's restaurant. My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner.

Stephen was our server he was so nice and accurate and on top of things ! The hostess sat us right away . The salad was great not like any I’ve had before , water was refilled constantly, bread was warm with butter and dipping oil with olives and peppers in it ! The Jackie sauce was amazing and our sorbet in between to cleanse palates was different but good ❤️ didn’t have room for dessert but would go back again

Highly recommend visiting this restaurant if you're in the area. The food does not disappoint!!! You get an incredible salad and bread with dipping oil to start with. The oil has peppers, black olives, and capers. It's so good!! The bread is freshly made and slightly warm. And the salad dressing is one of a kind. Then you're served a lemon sorbet intermezzo which is excellent. The veal Jacki was to die for!! Absolutely incredible meal. Do yourself a favor and visit Alfie's, you'll be glad you did. The service was excellent too and the ambience is nice. Definitely a place I will be back to again.

First and foremost, the food here is AMAZING. The "Alfe's" salad is incredible. We have never had bad food here. Trying to get a table, especially with a large party is difficult. They don't take reservations and they're not especially accommodating. The atmosphere is Italian restaurant, not beachy. But to reiterate, the food is FABULOUS.

Me and my friend had gone out for a quick celebration night, the restaurant overall seemed nice but had a 40 minute wait time and the restaurant was almost empty, our waitress was extremely nice her service was amazing (we didn’t Remember her name). THE FOOD WAS HORRIBLE I got the Alfredo it tasted like nothing, my friend got the fish and she also thought it was bland even when she did put the sauces and lemon on it. I didn’t even finish my Alfredo I took it in a to go box because I felt bad wasting food. We also got dessert and it was ok between the both of us we dropped about 100$ and the experience wasn’t worth that much in our opinion. We wouldn’t go again.
