Restaurants near Ocean Gate

“Just had Easter brunch and it was one of the best meals of my life!! Try the chicken and waffles and the stuffed French toast bother are to die for. We love Rosie’s !”

“Best donuts around! The staff is also super nice and helpful. Last weekend their employee (owner maybe?) cared enough to notice we had to go outside while waiting for our order because my son was having a meltdown and took the time to bring out our donuts while checking to make sure we're OK. Even helped get my daughter seated outside so she could enjoy her donut while I managed my son. They care about their customers and they care about making top-notch food/desserts. We'll be back again soon, and thanks again!”

You can tell they really care about their guests. The food was top notch—everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully done. Definitely a spot I’d come back to and recommend to anyone looking for great food and an even better atmosphere.”

“OMG. This place is fabulous. I was there for a Pidyon HaBen. They had superb apps, insane Rib-Eye & DelMonico steak and scrumptious desserts, along with open bar, slushes and ices. The staff was attentive, professional and prompt. And just incredible vibes. I would definitely come here again. Just invite me !!”

“Jennifer was fantastic! She is very friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant. She went over all the new menu items. I ordered a special drink and she went out of her way to see if the bar had the ingredients to make it. She paid a lot of attention to us as appropriate. We appreciated her thoughtfulness and great service. PF Chang has fabulous food we loved everything.”

“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.”
