We dine regularly at Cuzin's in Marlboro. We chose the New Brunswick location because it was halfway between our home and our daughter's house. It's located downtown. You can park for free at the Hyatt Hotel lot (Cuzin's will give you a voucher) or around the corner at the Church St municipal lot. The menu is the same as Marlboro with daily specials and an extensive menu of both seafood and steaks. The bar makes some great cocktails. We were a party of 5. We split two appetizers, the Crab Cakes (three mini crab cakes) and the Montauk Calamari which consisted of calamari saute'd with tomatoes, kalamata olives, and sun dried tomatoes. Both were outstanding. For entrees we had a Grilled Salmon, The Angry Lobster over pasta, Twin Lobster Tails, a Chicken Parmigiana made with the "angry sauce" instead of marinara and the Maine Sheet Clam Bake. All were outstanding, the kitchen made modifications that were requested, and the portions were large. We took home a lot of food. We shared 3 desserts and they were all very good.

The food was absolutely outstanding. We had the mahi mahi special and the broiled seafood platter. Both tasted very fresh…very tasty! The service was equally awesome (Caitlin). The noise level however was a bit high. It seems to be a very popular place, and I completely understand why. From beginning to end, it was an incredible dining experience.

My husband and I had a fantastic date night at Cuzin’s! We found convenient paid street parking right out front and, even though we arrived a bit early for our reservation, they seated us right away. The service was absolutely top-notch from start to finish. We loved the crab cake appetizer, the shrimp scampi, and the angry lobster tails. Honestly, our only regret is not trying this place sooner. Definitely worth a visit!

We went on a Friday (07/25/2025) evening and it was super busy as expected. I ordered the paella with seafood and my partner got the red snapper with roasted potatoes and spinach. We both thought the food was excellent! Our server Leo was very warm, attentive and provided great suggestions! Bonus points for having hooks under the table to hang your bag! The noise level was very loud and there was no background music which I think would have been nice and would help to filter out some of the noise. Overall a wonderful experience and we look forward to being back
