50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Atlantic Highlands

“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Good food :). Good service :). Convenient:)“

“My family of 6 stopped in today after our photoshoot on the beach and we cannot stop talking about how amazing the food was. The coffee was freshly grounded and hot, all of the fruit was ripe and perfect, the eggs were fluffy and my nephew loved the fresh muffins. We’re already making plans to come back to the area for breakfast“

“Always enjoyed drinking Carton beers from my local liquor stores or fiding them on tap at a bar or restaurant. Planed a bike trip along the Henry Hudson Trail, knowing i can finally stop in and visit the tap room. While they had lots of my regulars on tap, always like to try something different and what normally may not be on the shelf locally so I ended up getting a Mode NE IPA. Beertenders were super friendly and personable with great knowledge of the beers on tap. I arrived when thry first opened and had the tasting room to myself until the more people started coming in. Beer was tasty and made for a great way to stay hydrated before getting back on the trails. Definitely plan to do the ride again and will return. Loved the overall ambiance of the tap room.“

“Outside dining on a beautiful day. We had a variety of items from the breakfast section, app section and lunch section. Everything was delicious and fresh. Including tge iced tea.

“it has been awhile since I was in Atlantic Highlands when JUS was still open. I am so glad that I was able to stop in today. The Chia pudding was always a favorite. The pudding used to be served in a small cup by itself. Well now it comes in a bowl with fruit, nuts, syrup and then some .... it was delicious before but even more fantastic now. And sorry, no photo because it was eaten before I wrote this! Yum!“

“We highly recommend Patricia's of Holmdel. We have frequented this establishment with our immediate family of 12 for birthdays, celebrations, and more! The environment is warm and inviting through its modern decor, enjoyable music, lighting, and seating. Tables are covered with white clothes and seating is comfortable whether inside or out. The location is well maintained and clean. The pricing is average for fine dining. The entire staff is exceptional. We enjoy all pleasantries with the staff members. It is evident that care is placed in choosing the staff. Each is professional, personable, and thorough. They make us feel like VIP every time we go, especially when John N. is our server. John N. is extremely knowledgeable of the inner workings of this establishment. We have severe food allergies and dietary restrictions. John N. illustrates such compassion towards us. He is diligent in keeping us safe, and keeps open communication with the chef when we are present. He is so kind and fun, too, in such a way that he feels like a family member. While eating at Patricia's it feels as if we are transported to a family dinner in Italy. Between the welcoming ambience, pleasant staff, and delicious food, we (without hesitation) highly recommend Patricia's of Holmdel. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“My boyfriend and I go there at least once a month , each time we go we are treated like kings and queens !! The staff is excellent well respected and high honored in professionalism!! The food is always excellent and colorful !!! We both are in this field working with adults with special needs , we are honored every time we go there !!! Some restaurants need to take lessons from this place !! If there was ten stars or more that is what i would give them !!“

“Popped in on a whim and met staff for the first time. Welcoming, friendly, and immaculate store. The assortment of sandwiches on the menu will please all. Ordered Sloppy Russian, Antico, & Italian… delicious. Big City Sandwiches for sure. Fresh breads. So happy to have such a great deli in town. Will certainly be back soon to try another.“

“I was here when they first opened. it was not really "for me". Recently tried it again and loved it. I am vegetarian and my friend is vegan. we found options. Really enjoyed the eggplant sandwich. Would love more options (saw on one of the burger challenges a portobello on a burger, so loose the beef and just do the portobello) then I would definitely be there more often. Plan to check out the events that they have in the winter. So nice to have a quality and nice place locally to go out to at night.“

“friendly helpful staff. lots of options, flight is a great way to taste a few“

“We ordered for delivery through DoorDash and I do not like to post bad reviews about anyone. It could have been an off day and it happens. We ordered the cinnamon pancakes, BLT on wheat and the eggs Benedict. I love eggs Benedict, the potatoes were good. It needed a little more hollandaise but the sad thing about my platter was it had half an egg shell. Just please make it better or be very careful. Thank you“

“Great lagers. No food, but the sports bar Baseline Social is in the same building and they do have food. The type of small operation that should be supported.“

“Had Mother's Day Brunch/Dinner Today, as in the past Visits the Food was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 🔥🔥 Its always Great to see & chat with Jason the Owner. I would Recommend Dining @ One Willow always. Never Disappoints😋😋“

“Had the great fortune of trying this Hazy IPA before meeting the owner Kelsey Grammer and watching him pull beer for a few hours. This beer is outstanding! it doesn't have that hoppy bite and has a refreshing citrus finish. Put simply? it's delicious. Looking forward to more amazing beers coming!!“

“I tried it for the first time yesterday and the food was great. Had the s’mores donut and cookie ice cream sandwich. Asked Grace at the register questions and she replied with detailed description, was very helpful and friendly. They also provide a punch card for the visits for a reward and offer Monmouth University students a discount. Good cuisine and amazing customer service. Definitely would come again and try more options :)“

“Stopped by the newly opened Gigi’s in Long Branch on my way to the beach. First off, loved that they have a parking lot which didn’t stress me about finding a spot cause I was going to have that adventure when I headed to the beach. I ordered the grandma’s pie and garlic knots! The grandma’s pie had pesto on it and I am a s***** for pesto!! Love the crust style being crispy. Hands down the best garlic knots I ever had! Don’t sleep on this place. It’s 3 blocks from the beach, easy parking and they deliver. I look forward to some pasta dishes on my next visit! Other key likes of mine was the aesthetic, it’s beautiful Inside but decorated to make you feel outside. I was very impressed with the kid friendly atmosphere of the chalkboard wall, beanbag seats and they even have juice boxes on hand for the kiddos. They also accommodate our tweens and teens with a pizza wing mural for their insta! They really thought of everything. The whole staff were so accommodating and genuine. Thank you Tommy and Faye for a great experience.“

“We ate at Franny’s yesterday after attending a scouting merit badge class nearby. Everything was amazing. We communicated ahead of time to ensure they could accommodate our party of 16 and were able to place our order ahead of time too. Everything was seamless as we walked in with a table ready and the pizza immediately arrived fresh from the oven. The pizza was a perfect crispy thin crust and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. The staff was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I’ve been a customer since they opened, and I still get excited when I sit down to a Love Bowl (tempeh and spicy peanut). The owners are dedicated, hardworking, and their food is delicious and satisfying. Updated from previous review on 2026-05-15“

“I can't say enough good things about this place, obviously a waterfront beach bar has an amazing view and cool atmosphere, they're constantly hosting events, live music, which attracts a great crowd as well. And by the way, in my opinion as far as bar food goes they're top tier. Not just burgers and chicken fingers but kabobs and short ribs and things you typically see as bar food. Awesome bar food, get a spot on a couch in front of a fire pit next to the water with live music... hard to beat that“

“Their homemade soft serve is amazing. I love the pumpkin and banana flavors!“

“Best pizza and service!!! Amazing wings, salad, everything!!!“

“This is the cutest location weve been to yet. Really friendly staff and awesome vibes coming from this place. there's nowhere to really chill but you shouldn't be hanging there for too long anyway because there's too much life to live outside“

“A passionate owner is the first step to a successful business and you have that here. Great pork roll and coffee is a plus. Highly recommend this place.“

“10/10 service , the lady at the register always remembers my order & she’s extremely welcoming , I always get the vermicelli salad with the beef short rib & the fish sauce is sweet and savory , if I could I’d eat hear all the time ! As you can see super satisfied with my meal and I even got extra !“

“Another amazing dinner at Elli’s! The staff is so friendly, the food amazing and the atmosphere is so cozy. Will be back again!“

“fun venue with creative Space.“

“I am leaving a production catering review. My Kitchen Witch provided catering to a large production crew and security where I work (a large historical building on Wall Street). I couldn't believe how quick and professional that My Kitchen Witch was in set-up, the meals, and the breakdown of their service. The food was excellent, especially the pork carnitas and Mexican street corn! I definitely highly recommend and would love to head to their cafe in Monmouth Beach, New Jersey!“

“Yummy My breakfast eggs and greens with avocado was amazing !“

“If you are looking for a custom cake that looks amazing and tastes delicious, I highly recommend Cups & Cakes in Rumson. Denise and her team created a wonderful cake for our daughter with her college logo/High School grad. Everybody loved it! They go above and beyond to make your vision a reality! Thanks, Denise!“

“Looking for a place to celebrate your birthday? Undici restaurant is the place! The food, service and atmosphere was fabulous. I was greeted with Happy Birthday when I checked in. The table was set with a Happy birthday card. After a splendid meal and a dessert with a birthday candle, we were treated with Champagne and Meletti. Thanks for making my birthday so spectacular!“

“great sandwich selection. delicious and fast service.“

“We came to the restaurant tonight for a friend’s retirement celebration. More than 20 of us and they were fabulous, start to finish. The food, service and location were exceptional! I’m including a picture of my tropical salad. It was art.“

“Really cool farmhouse vibe here, super chill and cozy. The specialty drink menu is packed with fun drinks. The Coffee Break and Apple Cinnamon ones were straight-up awesome.
The bartenders were legit so nice and knew their stuff. The guy hooked my dog up with a bowl of water and even washed it before which was honestly the sweetest thing ever.
It would be better if food was available!
Great spot, great drinks, dog-friendly as heck. Will be back for sure!“

“Excellent service. Friendly atmosphere“
