50 Best American Restaurants near Pleasantville

“First of all, we love ALL of our customers and I can tell you that we serve a variety of ethnicities. I can also tell you that our chefs cannot hear a thing back in our kitchen, so if you did say something, I can guarantee he didn’t hear you. But to put a bad review without even knowing the circumstances and trying to give us a bad name is irresponsible and immature. Maybe next time you can stop and ask instead of ASSUMING. Have the day you deserve ?“

“This place is just great. Passed by a million times and today we went in for lunch. We noticed how clean it was as we sat down. The menu is more than reasonable and had a wide array of items. We both decided on the cheesesteak. I’ve gotta say, hands down, it blew all the usual sub places out of the water. Crusty seeded bread, cooper sharp, etc. One of the best cheesesteaks I’ve ever had. Owners and staff were so nice and approachable. Believe me, this spot is a true hidden gem. We can’t wait to go back again.“

“We were there 3/26/26.
Always get the pretzel! It’s amazing!
We got the grilled chicken sandwich from the special board. It’s was on freshly baked focaccia, baked right in the kitchen. Fresh Mozzarella Arugula and a pesto mayo. Served with homemade potato chips. My personal favorite. Out of this world delicious.
I got the blueberry lemonade special drink. It was refreshing. Must try!
My son got the Texas mule also a great drink.“

“We ate there last night. It is an upscale restaurant with white table clothes. You should eat on the patio facing the marina. Two of our dishes were very good- the flounder and the lobster ravioli. They had Slacktide Pale Ale on draft, which is great. You need reservations here, even during the week (in-season.)“

“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!“

“Great spot in the Fall to watch the Eagles Games outside!!“

“Jilly’s French Fry Factory is a place I consistently have a positive experience with. The staff are friendly, service is quick, and the fries are always hot, fresh, and full of flavor.

One thing that stands out is the portion size. They’re very generous and really fill the container, which makes it feel like a good value.

While the initial price can be a bit high, it’s definitely worth purchasing the refillable fry bucket. Bringing it back for discounted refills ends up being a much better deal, even compared to the cost of a small order.

Overall, it’s a reliable spot for quality fries and quick service, especially if you take advantage of the refill option.“

“I always come to Applebees and today Chelsea was so sweet and nice . I was so undecided on my drink and without even questioning she changed it for to make sure I am satisfied. She was busy but everytime she came to our table she left us with laughter. So sweet“

“Shug’s has the best soul food in South Jersey hands down! It’s hidden off on the campus, but it’s the first thing you see as you walk in. Hard to miss. The food is delicious!!! and the owners are friendly and give you enough food to put you to sleep! I would say what my favorite dish is, but they make it impossible to choose.“

“Lovely time at Sirens! We went on a busy summer weekend and the location and atmosphere are beautiful. There was a killer band outside playing - father/daughter duo who were amazing and a sax player too! Got the garlic shrimp which were great , as well as a blueberry cocktail with fresh blueberries. 10/10 recommend!“

“I was in atlantic city . I have walk past this truck a million times when I visit atlantic city. So yesterday i was hungry i didn't want to eat food i could get in New York. The guys that work at this truck are nice. They are willing to listen. When i tell you that Chicago cheesesteak was lit. The fries and the mozzarella sticks. Awesome. I would come back ago. Great service. Worth the money and I would spend it again. Just mad i couldn't get it this morning before I left. I will be back“

“I highly recommend. Very nice people here. I just had to make a special order due to having Crohns disease and they were accomodating. Quality food and good service from staff who care about pleasing thier customers. The chicken steak was delicious. Thank you.“

“We have been long time customers until today. We bought 6 smoothies and a half dozen donuts and the rude attendant said you can’t use the restrooms unless you are a costumer, I said we are we just bought a bunch of stuff and she said if you don’t sit you can’t use the bathroom. We won’t be back that is horrible customer service.“

“Food was wonderful but the menu keeps changing and not enough variety for people with food restrictions! The Tuna melt is gone from the menu I just found out today! And the Delicious Carrot Cake 🍰 🥕is no longer available! I hope they bring BOTH these items back in the future! Our cashier Saba was wonderful and understanding. She helped us pay our bill with no confusion. Can’t wait to come back!! Whenever you come to Resorts Casino come to Breadsticks and have SABA check you in and do your transaction!!“

“Chef Niko is always creating something new that we have never had before. His ability to combine flavors in his dishes is second to none!“

“Updating my review to 5 stars. While the experience initially started off frustrating due to issues with the online ordering system and a misunderstanding regarding my order, I called back and spoke with Tim who completely turned the situation around. He handled the issue professionally, fixed the problem, and made things right. The entrée ended up tasting great and I really appreciate the effort to resolve the situation. Thank you to Tim for the excellent customer service and professionalism.“

“We’ve visited Ventnor Social twice now, and both times have been fantastic. Going out to eat with our 14-month-old usually makes us a little nervous, but that wasn’t the case here at all.

Shane, who was bartending and serving, was incredibly kind, polite, and attentive. He really went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and accommodated, which we truly appreciated as parents. He was genuinely warm and patient, and you can tell he truly cares about giving guests a great experience.

The food was delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the games make it a great spot for families. We’ve had such positive experiences each time and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend!“
