18 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Monmouth Beach

“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!“

“We were looking for a vegan restaurant to stop at about halfway through a drive from Bergen County to a shore point and found this place on Happy Cow. It did not disappoint! Food was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive, and the portions were large. We ordered the mac & cheese with coconut bacon and the Reuben sandwich. Although we were full we ordered two desserts to go because they looked so delicious . We ate them later on at home and they were delicious as well! We got the slutty brownie and the chocolate chip cookie. We will definitely visit again when we are in the area.“

“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!“

“Super delicious Italian cuisine, excellent dessert menu, super ambiance, free parking and to top it all off; you can stroll the boardwalk to enjoy the cool sea breeze of the Atlantic Ocean.“

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

“A must when in Monmouth County. Thin, pastry like crust that has the perfect crisp, antipasta chopped or not, New England clam chowder to rival Boston. It is always busy and filled with both regulars and Bennies, anyone who manages to find this hidden gem along the Route 35 bridge by Belmar, will keep coming back. If you're bold, take their t-shirt challenge and eat an XL Pie to go home with pride.“

“What an absolute delight and surprise! Chef Salil personally brought the day's special dish for us to try. Remarkable and memorable. Explained the menu to perfection. The food so fresh and made daily in their kitchen. We will be going back often.“

“I love the atmosphere of the Bradley Brew Project! It’s such a great spot to meet up with friends for a local beer and my favorite right now is the Jersey. Also a fun place to bring some games with a small group of people or pick up food to bring over there to enjoy with your bev of choice! Grateful to have this cute, dog friendly brewery right in town 🙌🏼“

“The food is so good in Marandola‘s restaurant.“

“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.“
