13 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Surf City

“We chose to eat here based on their amazing reviews and the variety on the menu. We got there as soon as they opened and was greeted immediately by the attentive staff. They were patient while we looked over the menu to decide what we wanted.I went with the special, which was the “Not so Cajun shrimp” over rice with a green beans. I'm so glad I did because it did not disappoint! It was loaded with flavor from the sauce to the rice to the green beans.Highly recommend!!“

“Had a crab boil for out first meal in Surf City. The instructions were easy to follow. The service at the location was excellent. They walked me through how to cook everything. I steamed it in beer and added boiled eggs to my steamer. It was a feast!“

“We have been coming to Topsoil for years and this is the one of two reliably good places to eat on the island, in my opinion. We've never been disappointed and always leave full.Ironically, never had their oysters, but their shrimp is delicious and we always, *always*, get the fries for the app.Dietary restrictions: Great with allergens to ensure no cross contamination on the menu. We've never requested modifications, though.Parking: Parking can be difficult during on season, but never any problems off season. Be careful where you park, because some spaces are reserved for specific businesses.“

“Was in town for a vacation with the kids and wandered into this place on a walk. It was a treasure. Like something out of a story book this cozy book store is piled high with interesting books, and Knick-knacks. I got lost wandering the place and enjoyed perusing the wide variety of tomes. I knew my wife would love the place so on one of the rainy days I dropped her off there and didn't see her again for hours. They offered delicious muffins, and a nice dose of sarcasm. I really enjoyed the place and would highly recommend this little gem of a shop.“

“Good place to just grab a quick beer after the beach.. good beer selection. Didn’t have the pizza but it looked good! It’s a very small place. And the bartender was definitely an angry elf. Think he had a bad day but it was carrying into his serving skills.“

“Enrique truly is an exceptional waiter. The service he provides is absolutely outstanding, and I have never experienced anything like it at this restaurant. The food and drinks are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. I must say, I absolutely adore this restaurant.“

“Stopped for dinner last min and the atmosphere was great our server was amazing…the food on the other hand was overpriced we thought and I don’t recommend getting the crap cakes as the ones I got had no lump crab and were small and dry. Our server noticed I was not eating them and right away asked If I would like something different which was very nice. I’m here to say I do recommend the shrimp and grits they were delicious with a hint of spiceWe also got the crab shrimp linguine that was good and the fried shrimp was delicious. I wouldn’t recommend the lobster bisque as It was very runny and no pieces of lobster, but the crab dip we got as a appetizer also deliciousBut on all it was a great experience“

“Excellent. A trip to Surf City isn't complete without a stop at Sugar Island for some baked goods. A unique shop with a wonderful owner. Baked goods are always fresh and tasty. Check them out if you are on the island, you won't be disappointed!“

“We love going to coastal every time we visit Topsail. They have a large variety of beer and cider. The service is friendly and quick. They always play sports and good music. But the food is by far the reason we go. Everything we have had has been super and top notch for what's offered on the island. We love the hot honey shrimp, wings, jalepeno nachos, burgers, wraps, tots, fries and more. We love the tastiness of the food. It's amazing and 100% worth a trip when visiting Topsail. You can also get your food to go and sit anywhere in town.“

“Good, friendly service. The service was fast and our food was out quick. They weren't real busy, but it is still April so the summer crowd isn't here yet. I'm sure the service will keep up with the crowds if the servers I saw tonight were any indication.The food was fine but it was not as good as we had hoped it would be. Nothing I would really rush back for. It was fine, but not great.Parking: Parking was ok tonight, but it is early, no where near summer season. I can see the lot getting full quick during peak season.“

“Oh. My. GOODNESS! This place was SO GOOD!! The food *Mouth Watering!!* The service *Debbie was Super Sweet!!* We started with Mahi bites ? and then had the grilled Mahi with crab cakes with cheese grits, Yummers! And last and BEST of all was the Key Lime Pie!! You HAVE TO save room for this!!! We WILL be going back at least one more time this trip!! Highly recommend!!!“
