Great experience every time I've been there. This time, it was the cubano and a margarita for me l, the trout and a glass of Chardonnay for my wife and we shared an heirloom tomato salad Topped it off with an amazing lemon meringue pie and a cappuccino and an espresso. Oh, almost forgot the biscuits. Amazing! Get 'em!

The negative reviews for this restaurant are laughable. If Gulfstream is anything, it is predictably excellent. I have family from far and near that must dine here every visit; if not for their shrimp cocktail with homemade tartar sauce alone. Additionally, the fish sandwich, the burger, the New Orleans barbecue shrimp, and the Ruby Star Salad--OMGGGGG! This restaurant far surpasses Oceans 48, which recently opened (but I reeeally don't want you to know that bc it will be an even longer wait). Things to know: No parties over 4, it's beautiful and classy here where NB's billionaires and housewives like to hang out, and my personal passes are the ribs (don't care for the mustard sauce), house salad, or Dover sole (it's fine, but nothing to write home about). Order the biscuits at happy hour, the dips and artichoke when available, and extra croutons on the side with the clam chowder .

Took my wife several times but this last time we went a guy stared at her the entire time. It was beyond creepy.

I Was in the area and we were hungry. Arrived here without a reservation, and the wait was 15 minutes. Nice update decore inside friendly waitress. The food is good, appetizers are a good addition to your meal. It all went well with a red glass of wine: My evening here was enjoyable. Good service and waitress.

Outstanding dining experience on every level. The food, the staff, the ambiance are all first class. We were seated on the patio and immediately offered a beverage. Cameron (?), our waiter was really friendly nice. His service was efficient and non intrusive. I had the wedge that was served with a delicious thick blue cheese dressing and amazing homemade croutons. I tried the fried shrimp special that was delish. I believe he told me there were five shrimp per order and I received four. I've eaten at Gulfstream many times and it never disappoints. Can't wait to return!

I love the energy at Gulfstream! We stopped in without a reservation and got a spot at the bar. The restaurant is beautiful, the staff is warm and the food was delicious! The Cubano sandwich was exquisite with perfectly balanced meat and dressing. The ahi salad was delicately flavored and delightful! Definitely a return is required.

Food as always is good, simple, delish. This is the second time here and had the gulf coast fish sandwich which came out flakey and crispy and delish! Rounded it off with tres leches desert. Had to as it is phenomenal! Service is great here! TIff C. was fab and a good sense of humor to boot! And the place itself? Cozy, classy and well organized as one fine restos should. Verdict is always yes!

We had a reservation and were seated but at a table with chair bs our usual booth so that was a little sad but our server was Charlie and he was friendly, knew the menu and gave great service. We started with some cocktails and wine - loved the Frank family merlot and the refresher, crisp martini and a kir royale. I normally love the oysters raw here but wasn't a fan of today's variety so went straight to entrees. We had gulf coast fish sandwich and fries and the New Orleans bbq shrimp. Yum!!! Ended with a hot fudge sundae. The setting is nice as always however there was a table next to us with their kid on a device at full blast - pretty obnoxious but I suppose the nanny got the night off. Maybe they can regulate devices or suggest that to parents.
