50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Keansburg

“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.“

“Simply put, Great . All around Great. Great owners, great food, great prices, Great .. Honestly. IYKYK. Thank you for being there“

“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.“

“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:)“

“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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Had to make a visit at Taco Stop Llc in Rt 35 and I was really hungry. Ufffffff - Pork chops I haven’t had in a while and can you believe D Cesiah Jimenez Burgos, owner made ‘tostones’ and of course the chips with guacamole 🥑. Sent my wife in Florida the pictures. Sorry babe. It was AMAZING! TACO STOP, THE PLACE TO GO WHEN YOU’RE ON THE GO! Recommended 100%+ You won’t regret it!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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😋😋“

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

“We are never disappointed! Look forward to the seasonal flavor text messages.“

“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!“

“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“

“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!!“

“Just because it’s shaped like a bagel doesn’t make it a bagel. I am there every Wednesday morning where I buy 8 bagels. From the glass you can see the giant vat in the back where they ACTUALLY boil their bagels which is the correct way to make a bagel and not just round dough in the shape of a bagel. These bagels are the best bagels I’ve ever had in New Jersey since moving from New York. The woman behind the counter is always so nice. Their bagels for the quality are well priced. I have plenty of bagel spots around where I live but I drive a few extra miles to this place.“

“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.“

“Food is awesome. Staff is like family.“

“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“

“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.“

“Such a cute place, such a throwback, with excellent friendly service and great food! My burger and chili dog completely hit the spot and washing it down with their trademark rootbeer was such a treat! Can’t wait to come back!“

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

“Great local sub shop where you get a nice hearty sandwich for the money (CASH ONLY). Their portions put's the likes of Jersey Mike's to shame. Staff doesn't seem happy and not the friendliest, but hey, you can't have it all.“

“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.“

“Ordered mozzerella sticks and pizza for lunch, for the kids and I; this afternoon. The order arrived very quickly, was hot, and delicious! Pizza tastes like the pies made in Italy! So very good! Support this establishment; everything about this place is great! Mangia!!!“

“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 !“

“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.

THE PRICES ARE PERFECT FOR ANY BUDGET THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! DPW AND I LOVE YOUR PRODUCTS AND YOU AS A BUSINESS OWNER KEEP YOUR ESTABLISHMENT IMPECCABLE!

“The food and service was second to none. The staff very attentive not over bering. A comfy cozy atmosphere. The restaurant is BYOB this is a plus. The portions are perfect size. I can't find enough good to post.“

“This place is amazing! I used to live in Brooklyn and used to eat at Roll n Roaster and Brennan and Carr. Now that I live in Staten Island, I tried this place and it has amazing food! The food there is just as good as Roll n Roaster and Brennan and Carr. I definitely recommend eating here.“

“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!“

“As a Union Beach Resident, I just have to give a shout out to this awesome local pub. Although I visit there often and it has become like a second home where you visit family when you enter, the NYE celebration last night was so fun! The pre fix menu was full of options and the pricing was so fair. The drinks are always served cold and well prepared. Renee and Courtney were up beat and on point and made the evening even more enjoyable. It would not have mattered though who was behind the bar as the rest of the team there are all amazing and professional! If you are in the Bayshore area and are looking for a place to visit stop by and check them out!! BTW, the burgers are really the best in the area !!“

“OMG... Thank goodness a true Diner has arrived! Moved to Morgan's Bluff 4 yrs ago and I was so disappointed with the Ocean diner. If you can't make a good breakfast or a decent hamburger, you're useless to me as a diner! Guiseppe and son Sergio have already made a name for themselves by serving awesome tasting food in abundance, great service in an immaculate and friendly environment. Love the way they come to each table to see if all is good...making you feel comfortable like they've known you forever!! Keep up the good work. Buena fortuna!“
