Don't Get Sand in Your Wine

Beachfront Italian cuisine. Sirena Ristorante.

Tucked away next to a group of high-priced condominiums above shops and other restaurants, this place is a little expensive for our general price range, but not abnormally expensive for upper class beachfront restaurants. Anyway, the food is really delightful and, on a Wednesday evening, the service was quick and friendly.

The mushroom ravioli was yummy and the view out onto the cold New Jersey shore was really peaceful after what had been a somewhat hectic day. When at the Holiday Inn in Long Branch, NJ (seminar hosted at Monmouth University), this place is only a short 5-10 minute drive away. Beware of the crazy left/u-turn setups in this small town; you've got to use arterial "exit ramps" in advance for either of the afore-mentioned turns. It's insane and will probably also drive you that way.
