New American Restaurants near Ocean City, NJ

“Great Experience, highly recommend you visit“

“We really enjoyed our family dinner in front of the fire place. The service and meal were both great.“

“We live year-round in Ocean City and live exclusively on all the incredible, amazing delicacies at ANEU, 55th Street, for lunch and dinner. We wish this location was open all year but at this time they are open during the summer only. There is thankfully another ANEU location in Margate which currently is open all year, so I will be ordering through the main Paoli location and pickup all our food at the Margate location here https://aneucatering.com/ocean-city-%2F-margate. The reason we love ANEW is because everything is real, whole food ingredients, with no added preservatives, chemicals, etc., and is top quality all hand made daily by their incredible chefs in-house. They have the most amazing variety of proprietary recipes from breakfast, to lunch, to dinner items. The salads are out of this world and not available anywhere else, only at ANEU. You can even choose from pre-cooked, uncooked, or frozen for many of the lunch and dinner items depending on your schedule. Also available fresh daily are custom pastries and desserts to die for. They even have breakfast sandwiches! The staff is amazing. Somehow the ANEW culture of friendly, professional, customer service still exists at its finest throughout the entire staff. A special shout-out to Deanna in the Ocean City location for her contribution to the top-notch service that you are guaranteed to experience. I could go on and on, but to make a long story short let me close by simply saying that ANEW is by far the "BEST IN CLASS" in South Jersey and we are customers for life. Thank you ANEU for everything you do. See you next summer, and until then I'll be ordering through the main Paoli store and pickup in Margate.“

“I liked the fries which were gluten and dairy free. The location was crowded by seagulls who are only worthy of extermination. This ruines the atmosphere of the place. They were quick and helpful though.

Vegetarian options: Potatoes is vegan

Dietary restrictions: Dairy and gluten free minus the cheese

Parking: So its on a boardwalk and parking on the boardwalk is illegal

Kid-friendliness: The seagulls would eat your kids if they were small enough

Wheelchair accessibility: There is ramps onto the boardwalk but i would not advice they come here as they will not be able to out run the seagull“

“We were there yesterday (Friday 28th)….,,, game day of course it was busy that’s expected .,,. Put our name on the list for a seat weighted and watch the game of course for three hours to find out our name was taken off the list somehow….. we are not a complaining type. I understand it’s game day things happen. It gets crazy completely understandable. Still had a fun time watching the game. !!!!! …….. but I like shout out a big thank you to Mike one of the managers there forgetting us a table and being so kind to us….. Thank you again from your Scranton Pa peeps!!!!“

“I have never had a bad experience at this restaurant. The food, along with the staff are the best. Enjoy.“

“Great service fantastic food . Soups are delicious nostalgic atmosphere“

“Donna was amazing! She was very nice,warm, and provided great service. We enjoyed the dinner overall. The lobster risotto was just ok which was disappointing BUT everything else was delicious. We had the crab cake appetizer, lobster and shrimp scampi, ny strip, and mac and cheese. Thanks for making this a fun and enjoyable experience Donna!“

“Jessica is the epitome of a true bartender. Friendly, attentive, and always one step ahead with a refill, she kept the energy upbeat and welcoming all evening. During Happy Hour she was the only bartender working for quite a while, yet she handled the crowd with ease and kept the entire bar running smoothly. Her personality, professionalism, and hustle made the experience exceptional. Jessica is the real deal!“

“Food is very delicious! Service is amazing! Mexican steak quesadilla with rice and scrumptious watermelon lemonade is the best meal! 😋❤️ #TeamGyrosandGreens“

“Since I cannot cook right now, my Chef friend Amy Phillips Manzione from Stir It Up in Northfield has been providing our meals. She changes her menus weekly and the food is delicious. From Citrus Salmon to sweet potato burgers, lentil loaf, beef gyro, eggplant dishes, turkey burgers and chicken spinach meatballs-the entrees are delicious, healthy and a lot of gf and vegan items, which is rare in this area. Her side offerings are amazing-sweet potato wedges, blue cheese slaw, jicama citrus salad, aloo potatoes and blueberry protein bars. The desserts are perfection, from the mini key lime pies(mom’s favorite) to the peanut butter cookies, which are so good I only order one at a time…. She also does special holiday menus So, if you are in the area, or driving through on your way to the beach, stop in and pick up a great meal! And I need to tell you how we met…. Just a few months into the pandemic, I had a 3 day gig in AC. After the first night. I was feeling awful enough to go to the ER. I didn’t expect to be kept overnight for testing. I didn’t know Amy, I had only been in her shop once. I decided to call to randomly see if she could cover my gig-explaining the situation. She accepted without hesitation and then would not let me pay her for jumping in. I was blown away. Because, who does that? She didn’t know anything about me. So, in addition to her talent as a Chef, she is an incredible human 💕💕“

“Fast Service, Food is absolutely delicious, and Friendly Staff“

“A great place to go at the Jersey shore. The staff and customer service is excellent not to mention the food. Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Went for an early dinner with friends. We were greeted and seated quickly, had a tough time deciding from all the yummy possibilities. One of our party had the tuna wrap, one had the falafel salad, one had grilled cheese, and I had “The Stu”. We were all very pleased with our choices and the service. We will definitely be back again!“

“When I decided to go there it didn't have much expectations. I just saw it on Google maps and wanted to check it out.
They offer a variety of authentic German beer. The food is mostly more German inspired than authentic, but the Bavarian Pretzel is actually very authentic.
The staff is super nice. I recommend checking the place out if you're ever in the area“

“You have to go and get served by Luke! Amazing bartender, very friendly, put up with my drunk self lol and made greats shots and drinks! Luke, I’m sorry for harassing you all night 😂“

“We enjoyed the Thanksgiving buffet this year and it was lovely. Our servers were accommodating, kind and cheerful. The food was great. So many options! We would recommend this to our friends and we are definitely considering going again next year.“

“food was amazing i will definitely recommend it“

“Come here often. Food is exactly what you’d expect for a spot by the beach, definitely get the fish tacos. There is a tall blonde who works as host but she has also brought me my food before. She always has a smile and exceptional service. Thank you“

“Bartender's (Tom, Kate, Mira, and others) are wonderful! Been coming here for over a year. Good bar food, cocktails, and ice cold 40oz fresh bottled beer in a ice bucket with a frozen glass at an amazing price. Short walk to the Havana Tower and Parking Garage....perfect for us when we just want to kick back and have fun in a sports bar setting. Located on 2nd floor in The Quarter above Carmines. Highly Recommend this Bar!“

“the fried mozzarella is just a dream“
