40 Best Salad Restaurants near Ocean

“I am hoping it was just a fluke but got a pizza from here this past weekend and it just doesn't taste the same. I think the cheese mixture has changed or someone forgot some spice or something. I will try again since they have had the best pizza since Seaview mall.“

“Ate here (Wall)on Feb 15, got the Hornets Nest, awesome! Corn bread and honey butter awesome! Getting the banana pudding to go. Will definitely come back. Girl at the front was friendly and helpful, all I could ask for. That's important to me because at Dave's hot chicken they act like the customer is annoying. Screw Dave's, this is My new place!“

“Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious!

There was a mix-up with my Uber Eats delivery, and my order ended up at the wrong address (not the restaurant’s fault). After letting them know what happened, they re-made my order and personally delivered it to me. That level of care and customer service is rare and truly appreciated.

I’ll definitely be ordering from here again and highly recommend them!“

“Wonderful, friendly owners! Coffee is delicious and the greek baked goods/desserts are fantastic! Bonus... you can hone your greek language skills 🩵“

“Soul Kitchen is amazing! Our students love working with the great staff and always feel welcome and learn great skills and life lessons. The student favorite part of the soul Kitchen experience is of course the delicious food made by Chef Emily and her staff. The Matawan Regional staff and students want to thank Bon Jovi and all his supporters for a great experience and relationship!“

“I'm extremely picky when it comes to pizza. There aren't many places that impress me. This is one that does--definitely one of the best pizzerias in the state, if not *the* best. Small menu, but everything is terrific, especially the salads, the homemade bread, meatballs, and the "plain" pie. They even add fresh basil and freshly grated Parmesan to the pizza before serving. Crust is perfection. Eat there. Don't ruin this perfection by putting it in a box. Great vibe, fantastic staff.“

“Frequent customer, but always blown away with the freshness of their summer menu. The shrimply the best tacos, which was originally on a tostada last summer, was just as amazing, but didn’t sit as heavy as a tostada. Love the move to a light tortilla. The Mexi-Avo toast was so filling and the flavors melted together so nicely. Don’t forget the decor inside is so cozy, boho/havana vibe and perfect for a date or girl’s brunch. 10/10“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing experience at Oaxaca by the Sea! The food was absolutely delicious and everything we ordered 🤤.

We got the Oaxaca Platter, Molcajete, and extra tortillas, and honestly—everything was amazing. The platter was really good, full of flavor, and the tortillas were fresh, which made a huge difference. You can tell they care about quality.

On top of that, the service was great—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish.

Great customer service, great food, and a great overall vibe. We will definitely be back soon!“

“Daisy's Deli in NJ is a must-try spot for its delicious food, especially the comforting, homemade soups, and the friendly, great personable family owned establishment. It's a hidden gem that offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere with high-quality dishes that are both satisfying and flavorful!“

“I just went in there for the first time for lunch, I work nearby. The prices are steep, but I just had the Asian chicken salad and a chocolate chip cookie, everything was delicious. The salad tasted very fresh, and all the items they had looked really delicious and fresh, it was hard to choose. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Popped in on a whim and met staff for the first time. Welcoming, friendly, and immaculate store. The assortment of sandwiches on the menu will please all. Ordered Sloppy Russian, Antico, & Italian… delicious. Big City Sandwiches for sure. Fresh breads. So happy to have such a great deli in town. Will certainly be back soon to try another.“

“Never underestimate places like Usagi. We were looking for sushi to eat tonight on a Friday night, but most of the local places in this area are usually busy and they require a reservation. I made a call to Usagi and they said they had availability to eat. We came right away and we were able to eat delicious sushi. We ordered the spicy miso ramen, and that was out of this planet. Li was a great host, please do yourselves a favor and come on down to Oakhurst, NJ and support a local restaurants!“

“This was my first time here. I'm visiting from Pennsylvania. It won't be my last. We ordered dinner to go. We had Chicken La Nonna, and Housemade Rigatoni. Everything was light fresh and delicious. The portions were large enough to have some for lunch tomorrow. Fresh bread was excellent. Now let me tell you about the Creme Brule cheesecake. I can't. It was so good that even I am speechless. I may have to go back tomorrow for another piece. Absolutely delicious. The staff was very friendly and the service was great.“

“Yesterday was the first time my fiance and me went to the salad house! The grilled chicken with buffalo sauce was fire we loved the Buffalo poppers the salad was so delish! We can’t wait to come back! They have food for the kiddies to next time we will bring the kiddies!“

“I visited The Herd Juicery and was totally impressed. They have refreshing fruit bowls and juices, and they serve hot meals that are gluten-free and plant-based. For anyone who has celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's nice not having to worry about gluten cross contamination. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Even my husband loved his bowl and felt full afterwards without needing to take a nap. The smoothie bowls were a perfect guilt free desert!“

“Great place ! Music and TVs for the games outside what can be better at the beach !“

“Nice little place in Red Bank for Thai food. Good service, and my order came very quickly. Nice people and I enjoyed our conversation. I ordered the Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) with Calimari and Spring Rolls. Not knowing how spicy their dishes are, I asked for medium hot and was a bit disappointed it was not spicy enough. Good flavor, but it could have been quite a bit hotter.“

“Delicious food & great staff. I actually have a problem. a new addiction. I'm seeking help. No really. Delicioussssss stuff. 😍“

“Visited Cluck U for the first time today- and they have a life long customer! Andrew had piping hot FRESH food to us in 5 minutes. While my husband and I were eating Andrew sat down and chatted with us about the history of the city, restaurant recommendations and even spoke to us about new facilities they’re building in the area. This morning was rough as we had issues checking into our hotel, but we are so glad that the first place we went to (suitcases in hand) was Cluck U. It easily turned our morning around. Thank you Andrew for the great food and pleasant conversation!“

“the complimentary wifi is always welcomed when patronizing any establishment. as a first time visit to this location, it was very bright and open. i got a pick two for lunch and was asked abt my beverage but not if i wanted bread or an apple. perhaps they didn't have apples. idk🤷🏽‍♀️the bread i didn't eat bc i already had bread for my sandwich. i would have been nice to be asked my choices. the same way Ashley asked abt my beverage choice. it's always nice to be asked.“

“Just had dinner here with my husband and son. We enjoyed everything. The service was great. Everyone very friendly, welcoming, and professional. I highly recommend the Apple salad with grilled chicken! My son LOVES Benny's pepperoni pizza....We had a great time and will return again❤❤“

“The dinner menu is the best. You can’t pick a dish that isn’t delicious.“

“Father’s Day weekend breakfast at the local Panera was a delight. The manager personally serviced our party of three with a chipper demeanor. The music was family appropriate making the atmosphere very serene. I will recommend this lunch spot to my friends and family for a cozy little lunch.“

“First time here and loved it! Everything tasted great! Ordered in person to go. I was amazed by how fresh, delicious and fully stocked everything looked. The restaurant itself was neat and clean, would eat in next time. Kimberly helped us every step of the way and was very helpful, amazing service. Will be back soon.“

“Authentic Mexican food , the price is really good“

“Clean, nutritionally dense, & consistently fresh & delicious at stupidly amazing prices. Thai Peanut Wrap & The Roots are my fave. Get the steak add on, broths ROCK!“

“Very good bbq spot. Giving the ribs a 8.6/10, half chicken 7.9/10, Brisket 8.7/10, Turkey 8.5/10, and pulled pork 8.5/10. Mac and cheese bites were excellent, Cole slaw was standard, bacon wrapped poppers were tremendous, and cornbread was a little dry but fine. Also the chili was incredible. Portions were great and the Service was top notch and they were very friendly. Looking forward to coming back.“

“One of my favorites ever since I was a kid. The chimis are just unbeatable. Chips and salsa (free!) are fresh and out of this world. Prices seem high, but not compared to anything else in red bank and probably because I remember when you could get the same thing for $12 20 years ago. Highly recommend. This is the pinnacle of American Mexican food.

P.s. sorry about the photo, meant to get this before I ate but literally could not resist.“

“Our dinner on 05/09/26 was sooooooo delicious, it was incredible!!! The 4 of us enjoyed everything from Soup to the dessert mints!!!! It was all perfect, except for a table several tables away from us, who had screaming children and very, very loud chatting adults. It felt like we were being punished for eating there!!!!!“
