Nice atmosphere, good drinks, great finger food selection, good service and a wonderful view (of the ocean and patrons).

Some fish has snuck in, but other than that, you’ll find a vegetarian menu full of light faire. The smoothies are worth the trip alone.

If you’re feeling indulgent, this beach-inspired restaurant has a wonderful cuisine to enjoy in a chic atmosphere.  

Named after the owner, fashionable Taka brings authentic Japanese food, including sushi, with the quality you’d expect in a big city.

An excellent place for breakfast with delicious takes on breakfast items. Go straight up Jersey and get the crumb buns and pork roll.

You’ll find this Italian restaurant on south end of the boardwalk. You’ll pay for the location, but you won’t feel cheated if you order right.

American grill meets Mediterranean in this elegant Victorian turned into a relaxing restaurant. Beloved standards are complemented with creative specials.

If you want to eat along the boardwalk, this place has the standard faire to please everyone. Yes you will pay a premium for the location.

A Pricey Italian joint that is better for a group than an intimate gathering. It feels a little old-world Italian, for better or worse.

Big meals and big smiles greet you at this Jersey Shore institution. Think diner food and then try not to think about the calories.
