“Wow! I love veal. The last time I had veal this good was at a small place in Brooklyn with about 8 tables. That was about 45 yrs ago. I was like 10 years old. Some people call it milk fed, others call it abuse. Whatever you call it, if you love veal, this is the place to go. AMAZING!!!“

“I recently learned about Pietro's through being a delivery driver with DoorDash and wanted to order food from here. I live in Manahawkin, so I am normally eager to try something new. I ordered a pizza here today, along with Calamari, and the food is not a disappointment. Will come here again in the future.“

“Super nice employees, out of all the pizza on LBI this takes the cake. This pizza tastes and is on par with NYC styles. I’m from Long Island and honestly just as good! They have Dr Pepper and also tons of nice sauces like Valentina and tajin which are the best toppings for pizza if you love spice like me. Give this man your business, I will be back every time I’m on LBI! Such a great vibe, true beach town feel place without sacrificing quality or being fake. Nice view outside of the restaurant of the bay. Unlike the other pizza places on LBI this place has slices! Every other place gave me a face if I ask if they did buffalo slices! Go check this place out tasty and classic slices!“

“Pies on 9 South catered our wedding this past weekend…. 10/10 recommend! The food was absolutely amazing! Almost a week later, we’re still hearing from guests about how delicious everything was. Brandi was so easy to work with—kind, attentive, and her portion recommendations were spot on. The entire experience was smooth from start to finish. We’ll definitely be ordering from them again for any occasion we cater in the future!“

“As new Barnegat residents, we stumbled upon this gem while exploring our local businesses. The mussels marinar did not disappoint! My fiancé ordered the soft shell crab franchese, and was also very pleased. The bartender, Trish, was friendly, attentive, and made an amazing espresso martini. We will definitely be East Bay Italian Grille regulars.“

“If you’re heading down the Shore and craving something simple, satisfying, and reliably good, Shady Rest Restaurant continues to be a go-to for locals who appreciate classic comfort food done right.
This is the kind of place that doesn’t need a lot of fanfare. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, with that familiar neighborhood feel that makes you instantly comfortable. It’s not about trends here—it’s about consistency, and Shady Rest delivers on that time and time again.
On my visit, I opted to take something to go, which is always a great test of a kitchen—because if it holds up outside the restaurant, you know it’s worth it. I tried the sweet potato bisque and the Manhattan clam chowder, and both were excellent in their own way.
The sweet potato bisque was smooth, rich, and full of flavor. It had that perfect balance of natural sweetness and savory depth, without being overly heavy. It’s the kind of soup that feels both comforting and a little indulgent at the same time—especially on a cooler day.
The Manhattan clam chowder, on the other hand, offered a completely different profile. Light, tomato-based, and packed with clams and vegetables, it was fresh-tasting and well-seasoned. It didn’t feel overly salty or thick, which can sometimes be the case—it was clean, satisfying, and exactly what you’d hope for from a classic version of this dish.
The fact that both soups traveled well and still tasted this good says a lot. Even outside the restaurant setting, the quality held up, which isn’t always easy to do.
Beyond the food, Shady Rest has a reputation for being a welcoming, easygoing spot—somewhere you can dine in, grab a drink at the bar, or simply pick up something to enjoy at home. The outdoor space in warmer months adds to its charm, giving it that true Jersey Shore feel.
Service is friendly and efficient, whether you’re dining in or picking up. It’s clear this is a place that values its regulars—and keeps them coming back.
In a world of overcomplicated menus and trendy concepts, there’s something refreshing about a place like Shady Rest. It knows exactly what it is: a dependable local restaurant serving comforting, well-prepared food.
And sometimes, that’s exactly what you’re in the mood for.“

“We have been going to Black Eyed Susan's since their prior location across the street when it was BYOB and I can't believe it's actually gotten better in terms of menu and the cocktail menu is amazing too. With the addition of Marigold this summer they've reached the next level. We hope to rent it out next year for a private event. Could not recommend it enough if you're on Long Beach Island (or even if you have to drive the bridge)“
“This Giant Zeppole filled with Cannoli cream and topped with Nutella was Absolutely Amazing! I shed a tear of Happiness after taking my first bite.“

“Our waitress Kristen was AMAZING! So sweet and prompt! The food is always off the charts delicious! But the hostess, Wilma, was awful! She was Rude from the moment we walked in! Claimed she didn’t have our reservation (which we made 3 days in advance) they DID make room for us, but she didn’t treat her staff well, and we witnessed her putting them down and arguing with them! Not a good roll model at all! All in all good Italian food though!“

“We stopped in here after our last evening of training at OCBJJ and the staff was super friendly. The owner made our pizza and was very hospitable. I would rank the pizza we had in my top 5 pizzas of my life. Was huge, and very delicious. If local or visiting you need to do yourself a favor and stop in for the best pizza in Jersey!“

“I'm 61 and buy Dominos maybe 4 or 5 times a year. Recently moved to this area and ordered here once before and pizza was ok. Ordered a pie here today and it was probably the best pie I've ever gotten from a Dominos anywhere. Great job all around by the workers at this site.“

“Went there last night for dinner. Had the pickled vegetable, the romaine salad and the clam pizza. This was more than enough for 2 people. Everything was good and it’s nice to have another year round option in Barnegat Light“
