48 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Barnegat Light

“My daughter and her husband had their wedding reception at the Daymark on 10/27/2018. There was a nor’easter the night before into Saturday morning. There was flooding everywhere! Management and staff did an incredible job rearranging the room since we had to change the wedding ceremony to inside, instead of at the Lighthouse. The food and staff made it a memorable night. Everything was perfect! Thank you to all of the Daymark staff!“

“Kept driving by this place and finally got to try it out last week. As a Chicago native, I can tell you this is what I've been looking for the past 3 years of living here. The crust does not explode in your mouth like a bunch of tiny little splinters, it's softer and doughy. The ingredients and cheese are not skimped out on either, they are fresh ingredients and plentiful at that. The only thing I would change is more sauce, but I can do that myself next order on my own. Leftovers microwaved is a no go but air fried it's just like it came out of the oven all over again. In a Jersey full of Luigi's, pick Marios, you won't be disappointed. I suggest adding the wings into your order as well, best take out wings I've had from a pizza shop, super crispy breading and juicy interior.“

“The chowder was absolutely incredible. 5 stars. Our lunch was great. Not a person in our party walked away unhappy with their choices.“

“I go to the Forked River Diner often. The food is incredible. Every menu item I have ordered is excellent! The staff is very friendly and the prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend it!“

“The Sub of the shore. Fantastic!“

“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.“

“I got to say for sorrows is good real good quick delivery times they're honest if they say a certain time they're there but you got to be careful because when it shows up it is real hot real hot and really good food excellent“

“Great food - both the pizza and dinners. Salads are great too - a lot in them including hard boil eggs, roasted peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, green & black olives, onions, and of course lettuce - delicious! We highly recommend it!“

“I have been going to Marchioni’s for years! Actually the first restaurant I fell in love with from moving from California way back in the day. The chicken Marsala was always my go to favorite and now it’s my sons! My husband loves the homemade stuffed shells and now I’m in love with the salmon piccata and the pizza is always perfect! Yum, now I am thinking about it that’s going to be dinner tonight! The owners are amazing and so is the staff, one thing that stands out is the customer service, I recently came to pick up my order and the driver noticed I forgot my bag with salads and brought it to my house without me prompting it ( didn’t even know it was missing yet- and then it hit me to leave this long way overdue review) He made it to my house before I did! I really love love love Marchionis for the food but also for the amazing people making it all happen! Thankful to have them in our community! Andiamo Mangia!“

“We ordered one of their party trays for a 21st birthday gathering & it was a HUGE hit!! Not only did it look amazing, it was so fresh & delicious! We will definitely be ordering again!!“

“Love their food and friendly staff. One of our go to places on the Island!“

“The best quesadillas and tacos we’ve had in a very long time. Fabulous everything!“

“Fair sized restaurant/bar. Three sided bar with really nice bar seats. A parallel dining room. Local oysters were really good. Has a big draft beer list. Brunch menu on Saturday and Sunday’s offers $10 mimosa or bloody Mary’s for the first one then they’re $2 after the first one. Brunch is from 11am to 230pm.“

“I’ve been coming to JT’s bagels since they opened and it’s literally the only place where I’ll get a bagel from! Consistency is key. I moved away 5 years ago and I’m officially back in Jersey for good and they’re still as perfect as I remember them! I would literally crave them. My 3 year old was born in Hawaii, a little local boy. He had his first ever, Jersey bagel from JTs and LOVED it! Needless to say, this is the best place to get your bagels from!“

“Great food ,great people“

“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!“

“This is a great example of a classic new jersey bagel Cafe. I love it. I moved away from NJ years ago but I go back several times each year and one of my favorite things to do is grab breakfast from a place like this.

Tip: get an extra egg on the breakfast sandwiches otherwise it's too much bread.“

“loyal customer for years but the order takers need to pay more attention to the orders over the phone.“

“I was in my way to my son's football game and have about an hour to kill. I looked around and found this place.
The place was crowded with people eating and the food looked delicious. Too bad I didn't have time to grab a bite to eat. Beer was cold and service was very friendly. Would recommend if you're near the town.“

“I was visiting family from NYC, and decided to get some dinner. Wasn't sure what to expect...but was very pleasantly surprised. Quick, tasty and everything I wanted. General tso was better than any I've had from other places around here. My go to from now on.“

“Great dinner with my husband. Lovely server!!“

“Wanted to shout out the Joeys delivery guy who went above and beyond last night. We had a scheduled delivery time for 7 pizzas for a kids beach bday party but an accident on Long Beach Blvd was holding up traffic for a long time with no end in sight. He walked those pizzas 6-8 blocks to us instead, no questions or complaints. Super professional. Lots of respect and a major thank you!“

“Today after a day at the Beach we went here for an Early dinner. The food we had was AMAZING; Delicious, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The service to our table was awesome where we received everything we wanted. The atmosphere was great too. I’d recommend them to EVERYONE!!!“

“Still the best clam chowder and you cannot tell me otherwise. The bread bowl is toasted perfectly. Good bands and entertainment. Staff is always nice, decent selection of beers and alcohol. Good food overall. Our staples are the chowder, potato skins, and wings but have had their sandwhiches which have been good as well.“

“We ordered dinner last night, and it was great as usual!! Our food arrived quickly, and it was hot and delicious! We love Ray’s wings (hot and honey are our favorite) and pizza! My family has been ordering from Ray’s for over 5 years, and I don’t think we have ever had a bad meal… everything is consistently good! Ordering is easy and delivery is fast!!“

“Cannot rave about Giardino Sul Mare enough! Excellent service all around from the staff members. If you want delicious Italian food in the area, 100% check them out!“

“Delicious food, great service, friendly atmosphere and the bloody Mary is the BEST. My husband's and my favorite date place to go ***** 5 stars.“

“Most people order to take out from this restaurant and pick it up themselves but i ate inside the restaurant which has tables, chairs and the service which are all basic and functional. My dish was served in a paper plates and with self serve plastic utensils. I ordered the Spare Ribs Combo which includes an Egg roll and fried rice. The portion was very very nice size, the taste of everything was excellent, honestly if you want great tasting Chinese food, it's here. Don't hesitate, and i will definitely be back for more.“

“Unique spin on your favorite sushi rolls - loved the Chilean sea bass specialty roll! Highly recommend Zen for fresh and delicious sushi! Great customer service too.“

“Had a great stay for our first time here. Professional and extremely nice staff. Beautifully decorated for Christmas! Kids loved the pool.“

“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.“

“We were celebrating a bon voyage with 5 other friends. We waited a bit for our reserved hibachi table but not too long. We were started off with a house Japonese salad and a bowl of miso soup which was outstanding. I had a sushi sampler for an appetizer, the tuna was fresh and good. For our main meals we had the filet mignon, shrimp, chicken and fresh white tuna served in the standard hibachi style, complete with grilled vegetables and grilled rice with the whole typical hibachi chef show. Everyone seemed happy with their food with the shrimp maybe being the best, tuna was a bit overcooked. The place is quite loud during rush hour with people celebrating birthdays at almost every table. All in all a fine experience, pretty much what you would expect from these types of Japonese restaurants.“
