My husband surprised me with a birthday dinner from this restaurant. It was honestly, the best burger and the best chicken sandwich I've had in such a long time. Even the fries and cornbread were amazing! Can't wait to come back!

I don't normally write reviews, but, felt compelled to do so this time. What a lovely experience we (my fiancee) had at Freddy J's! Our server , Brittany, was warm, pleasant, and informative about the various menus. Our dinner was great! I had the half rack of ribs, which come with two large sides, mine being mac & cheese (to die for) and baked beans, also very good. My Fiancee had shrimp in butternut squash risotto. She raved about how good it was. Portions are plentiful at Freddy J's. My half rack was 9 ribs, St Louis style, with a wet rub. Almost forgot, we had A Bang Bang shrimp app.. The shrimp were large and cooked perfectly. We will return again, for sure.

Another awesome experience! Alisha was great! She got us our drinks quickly and had our order in the kitchen pronto. The Brussel Sprouts are amazing. I tried the new BBQ Brisket Sandwich and my other half had the Short Rib Grilled Cheese. Highly recommend!

I’ve gone to Freddy J’s numerous times and most recently decided it was time to leave my 5 star mark on this fine establishment.Their menu evolved over time but their staple items continue to improve as well.The bang bang shrimp is always a great starter and the St. Louis ribs are smoked so well and fall right off the bone.Excellent atmosphere inside and friendly wait staff when I take out.Can’t say enough good things and also looking forward to coming back again!

We went to Freddie & J’s for the first time in July & we found a great new place to eat. The service & food was amazing. We even bought a bunch of their t-shirts which are soft & comfortable. I got many compliments on them. We will be back.

I wish I would have taken pictures, but it all looks so good I dig in right away! We moved into the area last year and we are so excited we found this place. The Brussels sprouts are out of this world, the French onion soup is the best I’ve ever had, and as a huge fan of short ribs I have loved everything I’ve had with them so far (short rib Benny, Mac n cheese, and the short rib grilled cheese 🤤) . Largest selection of whiskey I’ve seen at a bar.

Ate there the other day after magnet fishing in the marina. Food was awesome, I had the Short Rib Grilled Cheese and I absolutely loved it. Washed it down with a couple Yuenglings on tap and I couldn't be happier. Staff / Bartenders were just as awesome as the food. I definitely will be back there.

Stopped in to Freddy J’s for lunch today with my kids and mother in-law. The place is so beautifully decorated. I don’t know where they got the dining chairs, but they are awesome. Super comfortable. Let’s get to the food. My mother in-law had the margherita flatbread, my girls split a cheeseburger and fries and I got the Freddy J burger which was stout braised short rib, crispy onions, sharp cheddar on top of a burger patty. Absolutely mouthwatering. So glad to have found another local restaurant with awesome food. Also, I’d like to add that the staff was all really friendly as well.

My boyfriend and I just left Freddy J’s. We got the Buffalo cheese curds, bang bang shrimp, Nashville chicken sandwich, and my boyfriend got a hot dog. The food was absolutely delicious. Our server Diana was the sweetest. She was delightful. Great great service. Also great bartender Tyisha. You can tell the good is really fresh. Great atmosphere. We live about a half hour away but we will definitely be back.

Had been here a few times for dinner (the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich is my fave), and decided to reach out to them about holding a get-together for our family after a funeral. I worked with Nancy to set everything up for our group. She was super helpful with deciding the menu, how to handle the bar bill, and making sure everything was set up. Everything went so smoothly - our family enjoyed the food, drinks, and the bonding time we had after the funeral. Thank you again.

Newly open, service isn't bad but it's improving with time. Food is mostly really good so far. Interesting menu and flavorful foods. Been there 3 or 4x now and 2 things were overcooked/dry and the rest was absolutely amazing. The service we had Sunday was spectacularUpdate: the new outside area is perfect! They even let us bring our dogs and they brought them water bowls. We love Smitty (server). Food has all been really good. Drinks are fresh and yummy too. Our kids love it. At times the kitchen can be slow but it's nothing crazy... Just enjoy the drinks while you wait!!

My boyfriend and I visited Freddy J’s for the first time this weekend, and we’re hooked! The atmosphere was relaxed, the staff was friendly, and the food was affordable and delicious. We LOVED the nashville hot chicken sandwich and apple brown betty a la mode! We’ve been telling anyone who will listen how much we enjoyed this bar. You’ll definitely see us again! 🙂

I don’t typically write reviews, but my experience at Freddy J’s was absolutely amazing, the service was friendly and efficient, the scenery was calm and home-like. The food was absolutely delicious, chicken and waffles was a success. All tied in by the lovely owner coming by each table thanking us for stopping in. Definitely will be returning.

Food was great for our first try at this bar! Nice size food portions! Nice atmosphere! Great customer service for dine-in and takeout. We ordered wings (Asian Glaze and Bourbon) , Short Rib Mac and Cheese (REALLY GOOD), and Apple Dessert with Vanilla Ice cream. Will definitely be here often.

Went to try out the tavern tonight with my wife. Had a nice time. Server was good and food was very tasty. Had smoked meatloaf, baked beans and potato salad and corn bread. Dining Area was almost full and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Watched some TV. Will definately be going back again.
Lots of luck with the new business.

Freddy J’s is a new favorite spot! I’ve been in to eat 3 times so far and each time, everything is fantastic. The bartender is excellent and the food is always delicious. The restaurant itself is also beautifully done and I love the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend the french onion soup and the short rib mac and cheese! 🙂

This past Saturday was our first time here after hearing all the fantastic reviews, we decided to check it out.. We we very happy with the service and the food was above top notch.. I had the caramelized brussels sprouts and the loaded fries with the pulled chicken. My husband had the steamed clams and bang bang shrimp... Everything was beautifully plated and the portions were large enough to bring some home for later.. It was a very friendly atmosphere ... We will be back for sure!!!!

Service was excellent and Freddy's has a nice atmosphere! This was our first time in and we plan to be repeat customers. They do have a nice selection of bar drinks. I am a little undecided on the food, the corn bread was good as was the coleslaw and the wife enjoyed her cob salad. I was disappointed with the Cuban, but this is not Florida so I knew going it it would be hit or miss. My wife and I both agreed that the brownie with ice cream dessert was great. Prices are very reasonable and you do get a nice portion size. All in all I would recommend Freddy's as a place to get a good meal along with great service. Pretty sure I will be rating it a 5 in the future as more of the food is experienced.

I'm In love with this place. Service is great!Very nice decor with hipster/rustic/warm feel, definitely something I haven't seen in Mays Landing yet.Food is delicious, you can tell it's very well handled, super fresh and high quality ingredients. Fries were crispy, not oily and seasoned to perfection.Some of the dishes needs a dash more of salt, like the beef patties and potatoes salad. Also if the menu says it the food better show it. I got the Mays landing special, comes with shredded pork ribs, arugula and ricotta spread. I got mixed greens not arugula (still good because it was fresh), and the ricotta"spread" was so thin I never saw it or tasted it. The meat it's soft and had very good flavor but the hoagie absorbed most of the juices so it was a little dry. Needs more spread or the salad some vinaigrette.They have a good selection of beers, Drinks menu sounds delicious, specially the pineapple jalapeno Margarita and Mules. But I'm pregnant, so I'll have to wait to try does.Over all, these are little things that won't stop me of going back. The owner is super nice, I wish they do very well with their new business. Let's support local!!

The food is amazing!! If I could give this place 10 stars I would. The short ribs mac & cheese has the most incredible flavor. The tacos el Pastor is is perfect. The meatloaf (pictured) with collard greens and shrimp salad. These collard greens are hands down the BEST collard greens you will ever eat. My new favorite place.

Excellent food, great atmosphere. We really enjoyed our first time here and will definitely be back.
I would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. Their menu is the perfect length with the perfect variety. The staff is very serious about COVID precautions and it was very reassuring. The food itself- AMAZING. Must have appetizers would include the bang bang shrimp and caramelized brussels sprouts. For entrees, the short rib mac and cheese and Philly melt were also amazing. Finally, the creme brulee was fantastic. The menu prices are completely reasonable.
