50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants near Seaside Park

“Cute little place. Waitress was lovely. Food was decent. Nothing to really go crazy and rave about. Very very pricey. More expensive than center city steakhouses! Hated the weird dim led lighting. Guitar guy was fun. Wine was good. We would return but wouldn’t rush back. SP has limited options so, God Bless. Don’t blame you for charging top $. Atmosphere was much nicer than Chef Mike ABG. Updated and clean! A plus for that. Thank you for a fun night 🥰 Bring on summer“

“We were invited to the friends and family breakfast the day before opening. We were all absolutely floored by this place and have already made a new tradition to come every sunday! The wait staff and INCREDIBLE, they are so sweet and so speedy! They were so considerate, turned the fire place off for us, and talked with our kids. The restaurant is clean, calm, almost beachy feeling. The most important...the food was absolutely amazing AND at an incredible price. The portions are large and VERY affordable, while looking and tasting like high end breakfast. This place makes you feel rich, and will thankfully not give your bank account the bill.“

“The cheesesteaks were delicious, but I wished I noticed the disgusting fan that was above the ordering counter before I ate there. The fan is full of so much thick dust that I felt sick after eating there. Makes you wonder if the kitchen is really clean.“

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Stellar pizza 🍕“

“Came here for a quick, Sunday homestyle breakfast and was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is unique, to say the least, but also gives a lot to start conversations amongst the table. Serving portions were superb and food was very tasty. I have seen other comments and reviews that were very negative and nasty, but everybody can have a bad day once in a while. They were complaining on the service and owner/waiter being rude and yelling. I've seen more positive ratings than negative ones. While not everybody has the same humor, people can definitely be some Debbie downers. All in all, we had a nice experience and enjoyed the food. Ihop who?? Lol will def be back!!!“

“Delicious, clean, fresh food with huge portions for very cheap. The whole restaurant down to the bathroom was super clean and the guy at the counter who took our order was the nicest and most helpful. Would definitely go again. The food was amaaazinnnggg“

“I was at the one on mantoloking road on 8/9/2026
About 8pm and I have too say the boy crew working that night was amazing. All young men just working great together. It was a different vibe, a good one I must say. Was great to see all young men working together. They all deserve a shout out!!!!“

“Food was delicious, the staff is friendly and service was great! The pho 🍜 was perfect. I highly recommend the cherry blossom shrimp wontons, we also tried the fried dumplings. Very yummy 😋“

“The friendliest place I have ever visited!! The owner Michele is the nicest and kindest host(also the owner). She goes out of her way to talks and shares with the customers.. and the food is over the top!! Do yourself a favor and get a taste of this place!“

“Tonight was my second time doing happy hour at JoeBellas. The Fig and Pear martini is straight up divine. The happy hour menu is fun. I had no problem eating Parmesan Truffle Fries for dinner LOL so so yummy. My husband and I brought his cousins last Saturday for a beautiful sit down dinner and as we were being seated we saw our neighbor's from two houses over! Bought them a round of course. Everyone was very happy with their meal. What a fun local restaurant. You'll wait in the summer time of course, totally worth the wait but now that we locals have it back I'll be frequenting more often. I happen to bring a friend tonight who is now a loyal fan. #lovejoebellas“

“I ordered a custom icecream for a special occasion. Cake was made exactly to my request, everything from the different layers, icecream flavors, & toppings. Everyone enjoyed the cake and asked, where is the icecream cake from? If you have a peanut butter lover in your life, I highly recommend this peanut butter themed icecream cake. Aside from this custom order, we are regular customers. The icecream sundaes are our favorite. You always get good portions (scoops) served. The medium is almost too much for me. That's a good thing. Chocolate Chip Mint, Hot Fudge, Whipped Cream, and topped with M & Ms is my favorite. This review is for the Lanoka Harbor, NJ location.“

“The other day my friends and I had the pleasure of eating at the Langhorn Steakhouse on Rt 70 in Lakewood. The meals were more than reasonably priced, and they were delicious. The staff was attentive, extremely friendly and courteous. Ty, the host, met us so amiably and showed us to our table. The server, Sharon B., was so attentive we never had to ask her for anything. Anything we needed she was right there to give it to us. We couldn't have asked for more.“

“Daves Hot Chicken has been a staple of mine for the last 2 years. I first got my daves slider in Ocean, then when I went back to college in RI, they just opened one up, we would go every week for my last semester. This location opened recently, the food was great the first few times we went. The last couple of times, I have been a little bit disappointed. Chicken sizes have decreased but the food is still good. One thing that is also a bit annoying is the spice level is never the same at this location and to be frank, all the locations dont seem to share the same spice level. If I go to RI and get a mild spice level, it would be the same as this locations Hot spice level. So I would jus ask for some consistency from the chain.“

“I have never been disappointed on the food quality or quantity no skimping.“

“We went there the other night and I have to say I was impressed with the place.There are plenty of tvs if you like to watch sports and a big open area with tables if you just want to dine.The bartender was friendly and so wwere the customers that were sitting at the bar.The food was really good and we can't wait to go back .I'm going to try the Italian hot dog and my girlfriend wants to try the pizza.You owe it to yourself to try this place out.“
