20 Best American Restaurants in Asbury Park

“I was here for a show next door at House of Independents. Stopped in, had a really nice pint and a pizza, killed time waiting. Great staff, place was busy. Recommended!“

“We stayed for our anniversary and had an incredible time. Overall the friendliest staff and the best food! We were happy to celebrate our anniversary there and we are glad the St. Laurent was part of our memory! We will be back!!!“

“Food was excellent and great service“

“I went to the Robinson Ale House on June 29, 2024. Service was excellent. The waitress was wonderful. My husband and I had lunch. I had a T-bone steak special , he had meatloaf. They were excellent. We had key lime pie for dessert. Really good too. We were seated outside on the side because we needed shade. Planning another trip in August. I can’t wait to try the Drunken Clams this time if it’s still on their menu. I hope I get the same waitress. If they still have the T-bone on their daily special I recommend you get that. I had mine medium rare. Quite pricey but well worth it. The rest of the menu is moderately priced. Good generous sized portions. Definitely recommend. 5 stars“

“This place was so cute and simple and just what you want need a in a diner. I love coming down the shore in Sept & Oct. we stayed at the Asbury Ocean Club and walked across the street to this adorable diner. They serve great food & drinks. We had an omelette and home fries and the food was very fresh and home fries very crunchy! I loved my cup of tea. They had a variety of flavored teas as well. 10/10 recommend!“

“Came for brunch. Half our party was running late and ended up being even later than we realized, but the folks at Toast let us hang out at a table with coffees without making us feel like jerks (we felt like jerks taking up the table lol but the Toast crew was incredibly chill about it). The food was great too! Got the crab hash special.“

“So I dont normally do cafes or places to eat on strips that are considered to me "little hole-in-the-wall" dining areas. Myself and my wife happened to just be hungry and wanted a quick bite to eat I must say I was highly impressed considering my last experiences with places like this have not been well. I think I have found a new place to get my breakfast in the morning while my wife has to run her errands. The owner I assume is who I dealt with and he was very nice and had a great personality. I highly recommend this Deli and Cafe to anyone who is in the area.“

“We had a great experience. The service was great. The drinks fantastic the atmosphere was amazing. We will definitely be back.“

“The Watermark goes above and beyond at all times! They did an unbelievable job hosting our wedding reception. From inquiry to execution, Russell and his staff made a dream come true for my wife and I. We will never forget how amazing a night we had. We discovered it before seeing a show at the Stone Pony and instantly loved everything about it. Once we learned they hosted weddings, it was a no brainer. All of our guest loved the food, the atmosphere and the amazing staff. Thank you Watermark…we love you. Whether it’s a cocktail and a small bite or a full blown wedding, the Watermark is sure to impress. Do yourself a favor and check this AP landmark out…you will 100% love it.“

“We love this place! The food is so creative, atmosphere is amazing, staff is the best around. Couldn’t have asked for more! Absolutely delishhhh! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great atmosphere great food“

“Great wedding venue! Great food drinks and atmosphere!“

“I want to give credit where credit is due. I ordered food using Grub Hub. The order was canceled with out my knowledge by Grub Hub. I called the restaurant to see what happen because now it was too late to get any other place to deliver. The owner and employees were so kind, they made sure to deliver our meal themselves. If you want good Caribbean cuisine and great service check them out. They went above and beyond!!!! Thanks again to Mark’s Place!!!“

“I just had the best Cheeseburger that ever had at the Bond Street Bar and Grill that is tucked away and almost hidden on 208 Bond Street in Asbury Park, NJ. The It is a small bar and grill with a dark almost mystical ambiance on a small one-way street. The bar has a warm and welcoming personality featuring great food, good vibes, friendly staff all in an inviting space of a classic pub atmosphere.“

“Love this place but they keep taking food and drink away before I’m finished. Annoying.“
