50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Highlands

“Phenomenal catering menu with beautiful food presentation!“

“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“

“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.“

“Always a Good time and Great food Epic scenery“

“We love going to the proving ground. The food and vibes are great. The service is equally great. But they advertised live music at 8pm that didn't start until almost 9. We left after 1 song because for us it was late. Please stick to your advertised schedule.“

“Great place. A diamond in the rough for sure. Casual and relaxing.“

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

“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!“

“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 !!“

“Absolutely love this place! Our waiter was amazing and very knowledgeable on everything on the menu. Yes EVERYTHING!! I personally don’t like beets but everyone I was with said they were to die for. Meatballs were amazing. The tomato sauce was so yummy. Mushrooms I would label as vegetarian steak. Beautifully charred. The sausage and peppers pasta dish is my favorite thing on the menu. I love everything about it. Pasta is always perfectly cooked. I can’t say enough good things about this place!“

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

“Best coffee & danishes in NJ, hands down.“

“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.“

“Took the dog to the animal hospital nearby and stopped in for a cappuccino. I was impressed with the operation, and the different type of coffees and preparations. Definitely a great place for coffee.“

“1st time ordering from here. We tried the Cobb Salad to go. Owner ran out of Blue Cheese but asked if we wanted an alternate cheese. Was still delicious! Very fresh and tasty! Portion size was good. Owner was also very friendly. Even though Keansburg is desolate due to the season, this restaurant is still open and it's worth the trip to either eat in or order out from here. I recommend giving them a try if you haven't already.“

“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.“

“VPT is always solid- great food, really solid cocktails and we had a great server last night though I forget her name- sorry!! I could just go for the apps and a salad but the specials are always interesting and the burgers are freaking delish.“

“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 :)“

“Mike, Marion, Kevin and everyone there are friendly and the beer is awesome!“

“Food is Amazing . Always bursting with flavors! I door dash from my work frequently and never disappointed only impressed“

“Came in for breakfast. Anthony was my server and he was great. He was Knowledgeable and accommodated my dietary needs. He checked in from time to time and I will request him when I return. The food was fresh and prepared well and was nicely presented.“

“there big burgers, home made fresh mozzarella cheese sticks, and hot wings I had mild kids had hot, home made mack and cheese on the money, 💰💰“

“Excellent atmosphere and great food. We were a group of 13 and Tatum’s Table was more than accommodating. We were served promptly by a courteous and friendly staff. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Great job!!! Thanks again.“

“We’ve been coming to Carton Brewing since they first opened their doors, and it’s become one of our favorite places to spend time, now with our family, too. They’re always putting out new beers to try, and we never leave without grabbing a few to take home. The people here are genuinely great to chat with; Dave especially made us feel completely at home. We just love it here!“

“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“

“Overall, great ice cream. One of us had a brown sugar dough flavor that was great. The other had Peanut Butter Palooza (sp) mixed with plain chocolate. The plain chocolate was bland and not very chocolatey. Service at Tinton Falls was quick and friendly.“

“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“

“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.“

“Good Karma Cafe is our nearby special occasion spot. We like everything that we get from there, and we have tried at least half of the large menu at this point. However, our family favorite is the tiramisu cup. On multiple occasions we have foregone birthday cake in favor of those tiramisu cups. Delicious.“

“This restaurant has amazing food and the waiters are very kind“

“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!“

“Awesome service. Cool environment.“

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

“Had breakfast at Johnnys this morning. Great sandwich, good prices and got to me Johnny. Five stars“

“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!“

“Great area.,Great friends.Great service...Food.Notta so much..overall Good Time.“

“great sandwich selection. delicious and fast service.“

“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!“

“Undici Taverna rustica is literally AMAZING. It expresses the passion and the food&wine knowledge of Vic. it has been unbelievable have a dinner there, 16 hrs of flying to enjoy one of the best pizza I have ever had, even better than a lot of pizza in Italy.“

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

“Excellent service. Friendly atmosphere“

“So happy you guys reopened, a staple of my childhood! Best bagels at the Jersey Shore hands down, and now they offer delicious homemade spreads! I got the mini with Veggie cream cheese and that will be in my weekend rotation from now on. Also the entire place is sparkling clean. I can't believe its the same place. Bravo!!

Vegetarian options: Limitless veggie options!“

“My first time ordering catering food for the holidays from Simply Sofrito I was nervous. The food was delicious, and Yasmin was so kind and took the time to take my order, addressing any questions or concerns I had. They even delivered my catering order all the way to my home and took great care with it. This is why I came back to order for Christmas because I knew we weren't going to be disappointed! The food is made with natural ingredients, and I can really tell the difference... it tasted so good. I loved all the food I ordered from Simply Sofrito; my favorites were the guineo escabeche, potato capers pasteles, empanadas, and the coconut flan. If you don't eat meat, she does have vegetarian and vegan options. I definitely recommend Simply Sofrito if you crave Puerto Rican dishes. I would love to eat at the restaurant sometime too!“
