50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Wildwood Crest

“This place is the real deal. The food was fantastic, the decor/environment was perfect for the beach. Our family cannot wait to return next year! I wish it was in my town! The staff was outstanding. The table we sat at was a shadow box type,it had shells and things for the kids (and us adults) to look at during our very short wait for food. 10/10.“

“My favorite place to grab breakfast when we visit Wildwood Crest, good food, good price, clean and such great staff. They never disappoint, they are warm and welcoming. I look forward to seeing the same faces next season. Thanks!!“

“This was our first time at Lemma's and it definitely won't be the last. We went for breakfast and everything was top notch. Everything we had tasted incredible not to mention the family atmosphere. The staff was so incredibly friendly. This is definitely a great place for breakfast or lunch.“

“It's great for breakfast!“

“Been coming here for breakfast for years!!!“

“I visited The Star Beach Bar yesterday for an ice cold drink— service was great and drinks were tasty HOWEVER for a resort of this caliber I think an investment in better speakers or a sound system is much needed. I heard a few other patrons say the same thing. I believe an improvement would boost the vibe out there 😊🎵🎶“

“Good food and good service and amazing staff“

“We have dined twice at the Crest tavern since under new ownership.

Food was good. Burgers, cheesesteak, roast beef sandwich all were tasty and good portions. I was hoping they would have added a fish/crab cake sandwich or vegetarian sandwich option. You are pretty much limited to sandwiches with meat unless you get the grilled cheese and remove the included bacon.

Nice selection of cold draft beers including some good IPA’s. Outdoor dining was great on a nice summer night. Our waitress was very pleasant. Small attached liquor store has a decent selection and is convenient. Will definitely be back!“

“The food is decent but this location is all about where you are seated. Previously we were under the blue awning adjacent to Two Mile Landing and it was awesome. This time we were seated back by the bar in the middle of the deck. Tables were packed tight and people on top of you . Probably the worst outdoor seating area in the entire place. Highly recommend you be specific on where you want to sit instead of just selecting outdoor area as this was awful.“

“Great Food and Awesome Location. Love it!“

“Always go when in Cape May…fabulous food“

“The best dinner I've ever had! The Grilled Octopus was amazing, the Caesar Salad was awesome...the Scallops were delicious...but the Ricotta, Honey, Almond and Nutella Torte was out of this world! Amy was the best waitress, her attentiveness and service were stellar! We cannot wait to go back!“

“We LOVEDDD IT! I was a little nervous about the price of the Mahi Tacos but holy heck- they were INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! We will definitely be back!!!“

“We dined on Friday, 10.31.25 supporting the Cape May Restaurant Weekend. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Red Snapper Alla Plancha that was impeccably simmered in a tomato-saffron cream sauce along with the delectable additions of mussels, rock shrimp, creamer potatoes and confit fennel. I had the wonderful opportunity to sample the Grilled Duroc Pork Chop with aged gouda potato purée, ginger glazed vegetables, sherry wine cream sauce and seasonal mostarda that was done to absolute perfection. I haven't cleaned my plate like that for years! My wife echoed that it was one of the top three dinners that we have ever had as a couple....Our service was second to none from the expediters, bussers and our very warm and personable server, Anna, who just added to the overall dining experience. A five star event for sure!“

“We love James at the front of the house and the super talented chefs - such a unique and fun experience. Three of us had the vegetarian tasting menu and it was amazing! I wish there were more restaurants like this! Thank you!“

“I have used Lucky Bones’s Eric three times in the last five years for catering parties at my home/in my yard. Twice I also booked waitresses with my party. The food is always delicious, the service reliable. We ran out of chicken tenders for the kids once and they brought over a new batch! Everything is set up as ordered and arrives on time. You can’t go wrong with them for your party. My father’s small after-funeral reception was in their back room and my husband and I eat at the restaurant at least once a month. Highly recommend.“

“Food is great, awesome salad bar and amazing service“

“Beautiful farm and property!“

“Recently grabbed dinner at the Doo Wop Diner on Wildwoods Boardwalk.
The staff were all friendly and professional and the atmosphere is fun. The 50's music and decor adds alot to the place. The prices are good and family friendly.
The burgers we ordered were all fresh and cooked exactly as we ordered them. The owners are on site and very friendly.“

“Great place for authentic Mexican food.“

“Such an amazing experience for my sister in laws bachelorette party! A fun activity to do on a day down in Cape May. Food and wine were absolutely wonderful & the staff was super helpful and friendly when we had questions about wine pairings. 10/10 activity!“

“Well, this summer we decided to take a trip to Wildwood. We did some research regarding places to stay and of course restaurants. Well, we found a very nice motel. Well anyway, one morning we went out to one of the recommended restaurants, and happened to notice this restaurant across the street called pasta pesto. We noticed there was some signage outside regarding Tuesday night martinis special Thursday night prime rib special so we decided to venture there on Tuesday night. Well first of all the surroundings were very inviting along with a very relaxing atmosphere. So we had the martinis specials, which were very cheap and actually very very good. The service was awesome and we met the one lady there named Peg who is very very nice. Well, then, we decided to go back Thursday night for prime rib night. He had the prime rib, which was more then he even expected and I had the ravioli with meatballs. Both dishes were very, very good again. The service was excellent. The atmosphere was very relaxing plus it was very busy that Thursday night, which I’m not surprised. So I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the Wildwood area. We definitely would go there again for dinner. Unfortunately, I only took a few pictures, and hopefully it captured the relaxing atmosphere of this establishment.“

“Hi I want to sing my praises to two of your waitresses that went above and beyond during our meals while vacationing in Wild Woods. Our first Experience and 2nd we had the pleasure of having “Niki” and truly we could not ask for better service than she offered,her tone,her understanding and the way she treated my toddler is immeasurable and the small details that were paid attention to were not found in other establishments we tried. I hope she knows how valued and appreciated she is by our family! We stopped in for one last meal before heading back to MD and we were cared for. A waitress I don’t re call a name but long curly hair,and a smile that lit up a room and was welcoming,her table side manner was fantastic she joked with us and also treated my daughter remarkably well where again other establishments frowned upon her questions or acted as she wasn’t talking. Furthermore,Noticing the whole atmosphere was a fantastic vibe, Everyone was smiling and working as a team. Can’t wait to return !“

“The cleanliness, fast service, excellent staff from front to back, food, and prices are quite excellent. We’ve been going to this particular Hotspot for many years and I don’t ever recall anything that we ever received being anything but excellent. I highly recommend.

“We were down the past couple of weekends in North Wildwood, stopped at one of our favorites and got great-sized Maryland crabs the one weekend and, then, last night some clams & lobster tails. Always a pleasure seeing the staff. Always fast & friendly“

“I don’t think I’ve been to a more welcoming brewery, and that’s saying something because we all know how chill breweries tend to be! Staff were attentive and patient with our party, which included pups and kids. The outdoor seating is covered and comfortable. Beers were all delicious and they had something for everyone. We loved the food truck outside, too!“

“Yesterday we went to Cape May Winery with a bachelorette party group. We had a great experience from booking, too ordering our wine and enjoying our time in the lower cellar room. Special shout out to the amazing table of guests next to us that included 3 married couples that each had been married for over 25 years. They stopped at our table to give our bride-to-be some amazing wedding and successful marriage advice. It was a really special visit and I am so glad we chose to come here! 💜“
