50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Manasquan

“What a great time! I'm not sure why some reviews say ride staff. I didn't see that at all. Tables are a little toght but not that bad. Service was exceptional and they have a TON of gluten free food. Save room for dessert. Only thing is go early or you'll be waiting even though you have reservations and BYOB. Can't wait to go back!“

This was the first time any of us have been there and we will for sure be going there again. Kudos to Lubrano’s. Thank you“

“Most amazing Roman Style Pizza. The owners are so genuine! Their food is exceptional and they treat every customer like family! Highly recommend!“

“As someone who is both vegan and gluten free, this place was like heaven on earth. They labeled everything so clearly and had such a wide variety of options of baked goods. Rivals the famous Vegan Treats bakery of Bethlehem, PA. I only wish that they had more savory offerings.“

“Your Gingerade was amazing!!! Is there anything beside honey, lemon and ginger in it???“

“Very good vegan food, many selections, friendly servers.“

“Vegan or not, it’s worth checking out this cute spot. We ordered the porkroll egg and cheese sandwich, the buffalo tempeh mac and cheese, the bacon, hashbrowns, french toast sticks, and a cold brew. As some other reviews mentioned, they did change some items on their new menu but there was still a good variety. I felt that they did a good job recreating typically non-vegan dishes. Our favorites were the Buffalo Mac and cheese (really good) and the French toast sticks. The worker running the food out to us was very kind and attentive (blonde hair, dark makeup). I didn’t feel that we had to wait long for our order. The decor is very fun and themed. They were out of a few things we had inquired about, but we aren’t nit-picky. I would come here again but would maybe call ahead to see what’s on the menu because I still see the old menu listed online and it’s since changed quite a bit.“

“Just ordered for the first time to surprise my wife . She is extremely happy . The nox. Tail tofu platter and jerk Tofu are amazing all the sides were great and the portions are perfect !! Thank you ! We will be back“

“This place was delightful! My omni best friend found it researching places she could take me, and we were both floored by how good the food was.

Plus- they have vegan tiaramisu, y'all!!!

Adding to the charm was a lovely, sweet employee named Jordan.

Highly recommend!“

“I can’t thank the staff at B2 bistro point pleasant for making my daughters wedding shower absolutely perfect. The service attention to detail food and bar service was exceptional! Samantha the coordinator was amazing!!!“

“Delicious food excellent customer service“

“I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. since the day they opened, inconsistent with food and drinks. one day the sliders are medium, the next well done. one day your $16 martini is full, the next it's missing the top inch of the drink. one day the pizza is ok, the next time is soup. last time the service was just ok. tonight she was great.“

“Creative menu, excellent food and the staff was attentive. Highly recommended.“

“One of the best vegan spots in the state, I'd say the best in the county but I'm biased. I've eaten here!!! The owner is an awesome human being, she's constantly creating new, fun dishes and their signature crunchwraps are always killer! Generous portions and amazing cookies and baked goods to make sure you leave stuffed. Do not sleep on this spot!!!“

“My boyfriend picked up my ice cream cake last weekend (March 2nd) and the cake was AMaZINg! It came out better than expected. The cake decorator did an incredible job at making his idea come to life! It was vanilla, with chocolate peanut butter and chocolate drizzled on the side. It tasted delicious! We will be back for future cakes. Thank you!“

“This is the quintessential turning point for me. Its both the first one Ive ever been too and probsbly my favourite one too.

Its got the best atmospherr comparative to the one in brick and the one in freehold(?).

Regardless this chain is a staple of the Jersey shore and rightfully so.“

“The Apple Pie Ice Cream was the best ìce cream I have ever tasted.“

“Kimchi Mama is AMAZING! The food is bursting with authentic flavor — the kimchi, bulgogi, and pancakes are must-tries. Service is warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Easily one of the best restaurants in Asbury Park. Can’t wait to come back!“

“This was my very first time trying Indian food, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I went with a good friend who guided me through the menu and helped me choose dishes that were flavorful without being overwhelmingly spicy. The owner was also incredibly kind and took the time to make sure I had a great introduction to Indian cuisine.

The food itself was amazing—every dish was rich, balanced, and full of flavor. It gave me the chance to really enjoy something new without feeling intimidated. The service was just as impressive. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and genuinely wanted me to enjoy my meal.

The restaurant itself was spotless, comfortable, and welcoming. The atmosphere made me feel relaxed and set the tone for an unforgettable first experience with Indian food.

If you’ve never tried Indian food before, I highly recommend Tandoor India Restaurant. They’ll take great care of you, guide you through the menu, and make sure you walk away with a full stomach and a smile. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Drove down from Bergen County the other day. Let me tell you, it was worth the trip. The coffee cake just melts in your mouth. Many other delights in this bakery. The brownies looked amazing. They also have a nice selection of gluten free items“

“Yet another reason why 502 Bakery is my bakery of choice. Woke-up Saturday morning (4/12/2025) craving crumb coffee cake. Arrived at 502 Bakery a few minutes before 9AM, but when I approached the door the sign said, "Sorry We're Closed!" I did not realize they opened at 9:30AM. So I went back to my vehicle to wait 30-minutes until they officially opened. LOL... Wait?! Yes, the crumb cake is that good! Not more than 2-minutes later, I looked back from my vehicle to see the neon 'OPEN' sign on! Rather than having a customer wait they chose to open early. 502 Bakery's customer service matches the quality of their product. Thanks 502 team! See you again soon. Gerald S.“

“Food was excellent and great service“

“Incredible ice cream, awesome atmosphere, friendly, professional, fun and delicious 😋“

“This pizza was absolutely amazing! The dough had that perfect classic Italian style—crispy on the outside yet soft and chewy inside. The sauce really brought everything together; it had rich flavor and just the right balance, though slightly on the salty side. The cheese was kept light, letting the dough and sauce shine through instead of overpowering them. Altogether, it felt like an authentic Italian pizza experience. Easily one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a long time.“

“One of the best around. We come every year.“

“The food was spectacular, great service, quick to get seated even though they were super busy. Not a single note.“

“Really good food and great staff. Place was clean and accommodating. Yolo French roast was heaven. 🥵“

“EXCELLENT... food was AMAZING!!! large portions- we were stuffed!!!“

“I have been going to Ada’s for probably close to a decade if not longer. I am familiar with Ethiopian cuisine and she truly delivers every time. While I can’t speak to the other cuisines I have learned over time that her heart is in every dish. The doro wot is top! (Well it all is). The AP location is lovely. I can’t wait to go back, and that is coming from a Californian.“

“The food was delicious and our server was excellent. We will be going back. Plus a byob is always nice.“

“We visited the juice Basin on a trip to Asbury Park. The smoothies were amazing, service was friendly and helpful. It was a hot day and a long walk to get there. Was able to stay as long as we wanted too, to cool down. Very Much appreciated!!! It was a long walk from the beach, but was worth the trip.“

“I don't...lousy service...manager that calls customers names....when she made the mistake. Unprofessional. WILL NOT GO THERE AGAIN!“

“While we were too early to try anything off the menu, I wanted to thank this business for opening their doors (and bathroom!) to the people at the Pride Parade. The gentleman at the counter was sunny and kind and let everyone in. Most other businesses did not. We already have this place earmarked for our dinner after our next beach day. Thank you for being excellent humans.“
