“Awesome restaurant. I’m in town for the Elks convention and staying in a hotel right next door. I kept walking by and smelling the food and seeing the meals. Me and my friends stopped by today. I got the sushi which was fabulous. The drinks were awesome also. Great time. I’ll be back!”
“Excellent!! Our only disappointment is that we just discovered this Wildwood gem after coming here for years. Everything was fantastic & the staff were all awesome! The live music was the icing on the cake. Fantastic!”
“The meal was incredible! Appetizers were arugula salad and eggplant rollatini . Dinner was the salmon and the chicken francaise was phenomenal! The server was kind, personal and attentive. Best meal we’ve had down here in a while!”

“I chose this restaurant for my husband’s birthday dinner. We had an amazing meal in a pretty setting. Aside from being extremely impressed with all of the flavors, from appetizer to dessert, our server, Ari (not sure I’m spelling it correctly) was just the sweetest, knowledgeable and kind young woman. She was very attentive but not annoyingly. There were other servers walking around making sure tables were cleared of finished apps, salads and such. They work as a team and made the experience so enjoyable. Everything flowed so smoothly. We enjoyed delicious cocktails and the food was so on point. We’re giving Santorini ALL the stars! We will most definitely be back, again and again!”

“My father and I tried Taqueria El Azteca’s new location on Ocean Ave. in Wildwood and we were not disappointed. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and taken to our table. You can tell that the owners went to great lengths to renovate and fill out their new space because it is so nice, new and clean inside. To start, my father and I each enjoyed the Watermelon drink. It tasted fresh and naturally sweet. My father ordered the Azteca Taco Al Pastor and received 3 overstuffed pork al pastor tacos. The tortillas were homemade and were very filling. I enjoyed an order of the Noodles Birria (Birria Beef Ramen) and it was phenomenal. A very creative fusion dish that was perfect for a cold winter day. All in all, we’re very happy to see that Taqueria El Azteca is doing well enough to open their second location and we’ll be enjoying their delicious cuisine again soon!”
“Fantastic.. A++ Called in an order 45 min before they closed on a Sunday night. My stupid fault but no biggie. They had it ready in 20min. Owner was cool & super friendly as I heard. Manager was fun & she obviously cared. Food was absolutely Stellar. Ridiculously Good actually! I stacked the order with different types of Cutlet Sandwiches, a Cheesesteak, Fries, etc. Whatever, $120 Worth every penny. Another Wildwood Hit…:) Thanks Guys! Can’t wait to share this place with Friends & Family in Summer 2026.”
“Second time dining. Food was delicious and the place hasn't changed one bit in 2 years. The exact same family and staff still there! Its clean, has great quality seating, great menu! Even has gluten free bread. No buns. But had bread. Made me toast and put my burger on that! Perfect! It came out fast!”
“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 !”

“Great ice cream! Kids had a blast. On certain days they have a balloon entertainer (free! tips welcomed). Staff super friendly.”
“I've been enjoying Macks Pizza since 1971 when my parents let an 11 year old walk the boardwalk alone for the first time. Mrs T was one of my first memories. we've been several times a year since and each of my children and grandkids have had their first slice of pizza at Macks. Yes, I happily drive 2 and a half hours to load up on the best Pizza ever!!”
“Popped in yesterday because I needed a quick bite while waiting for my daughter to finish up practice for the cheer convention. Ordered 2 cheese and 1 pepperoni. Pizza was made fresh and tasted delicious. Not to mention they were big slices. Thoroughly enjoyed it in the car!”
“This was my husband and I’s first time here and we can’t say enough about our experience! Welcomed warmly upon our arrival in to a homey friendly environment! The food was amazing!!!! Can’t recommend enough! The arancini, meatballs, Chicken Angelina and Chicken Parmigiana were old school Italian…reminders of my husband’s grandmothers cooking! Our waitress Tricia was lovely and accommodating! Celebrating our anniversary here was a pleasure and we look forward to our next visit! Go see Joey and his staff, you won’t regret it!”
“Food was excellent as well as the service. We were patrons on a slower paced night, so we were able to walk around and check out the decor, which was pretty cool IMO. If you ever are in the area, stop in for a meal. I would bet you will be happy with the experience.”

“My family and I go to Wildwood every year and discovered Hatillo’s. I have a gluten allergy and find it difficult to eat out at restaurants and enjoy food. I wanted to know if it was possible for them to fry some foods separately for me. The owners were very willing to accommodate my food allergy. They let me know all of the ingredients in all of the foods that I ordered to make sure it was ok with my diet. I truly appreciated the effort that they put into making sure that there was no cross contamination. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was phenomenal!!”

“Went Saturdsy night for the rib special. I had been there years ago and was not impressed with the food. The ambiance is good, the service terrific, the drinks well made & a great happy hour. Our rib dinner came with a choice of salad or soup. I chose the salad which was fresh and plentiful. My wife chose clam chowder. She loved it. So i tried hers. It was great. Also dinner came with a fresh loaf of bread with butter and dipping oil. The ribs were very good and full rack along with a baked potatoe and asparagras. We will be back again”
“The food was delicious and the waitress was awesome highly recommend ???”
“Amazing staff and fantastic food! Absolutely delicious experience! Can’t wait to go back!”

“Parking can be tricky. It is on a corner with few dedicated on site spaces. Street parking is a distance. Plan ahead. Folks get their orders and move out of spaces quickly. Local traffic is aware customers are moving in and out constantly.
Worth walking to for good ice cream”
“I love this place! I bought a smoothie from this place while on my bike and off the boardwalk crashed I didn’t think I would get another but is was worth a shot and he did! I got a whole another smoothie for free! Another time and was riding looking for my brother and went up to multiple places for water but I didn’t have money and the gave me a free water nobody else did. This place has very generous staff and Greta customer service!”

“This place was outrageous. Here I was thinking it was only hot dogs and corn dogs, and they pull out a double-sided menu with mozz sticks, empanadas, loaded fries, Mex corn, the best funnel cakes you’ve ever seen or tasted, ice cream, fried chocolates and Oreo’s, and the funniest shirts you’ll ever wear.”
“Such an amazing experience! The cheesesteak,sausage & peppers, gyro, and funnel cake were absolutely delicious, but the hospitality made it even better. Everyone was so kind and welcoming…Truly one of the best memories from our New Jersey boardwalk vacation. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Our family LOVES going to the Hershey's Ice Cream Wildwood shop! They not only serve the BEST ice cream treats but their crepes and funnel cakes are out of this world! They also serve up smiles with a friendly staff! Our children love going there every day! well and night, too! Enjoy!”
“The wife and I were out and about and decided to try the Waterside location in Lakewood Ranch Fl. I have to say im a bit of a critic because we have family in Maine and have tasted all ends of the spectrum of lobster rolls from amazing to terrible and this place makes a great Lobster rolls with a spot on price comparable to Maine and other restaurants in the area. The staff member we dealt with was super nice I wish I would have got his name, but I do know he was from Jersey and had great knowledge knew the product well. We had 2 Connecticut rolls and they were great. I would say this place is worth checking out. Theres only outdoor seating, but you can easily walk around waterside and find a spot to kick back and enjoy or walk out enjoy their outdoor seating and it will complement their lobster rolls very well. They also have nice little selection of beers/beverages and a whole N/A fridge too.”

“I love this little Café that's tucked away here in North Wildwood on New York Ave and 18th Ave. This was my daily stop while working this summer. My favorite was a dbl. shot of iced cold brew! Stronger and smoother than Starbucks!!! AMAZING 😋 Not only do they have the best coffee drinks, the choice of pastries is amazing also, you haven't had a donut until you try theirs, huge and delicious. Muffins are also delicious. My favorite is the Crumb Cake OMG!!!! What a treat! The waffles are also delicious. Now for the owners, AMAZING. They are so kind and really know how to treat their customers. Now for the girls who are absolutely AMAZING also!!! As soon as they see me, they know exactly what I want and get it ready 💖 They are so efficient and work with the best attitude I have ever seen in my life. Always smiling and happy. I'm really going to miss this great Café when they close up for the season 😭 Have a wonderful winter ☃️❄️☃️ and I'm counting the weeks until next season ❤️💖❤️”

“Thought I would try an upscale dish (since they were offering it) to see how a Boardwalk Restauranteur would perform. I ordered the Shrimp Pasta with Marinara. Needless to say, I was "Stunned"! This is a favorite dish of mine and I usually reserve ordering it to finer esoteric Bistros and Trattorias I frequent. Yes, I dare say it, BOLDLY that the Chef Olympic Flame not only went "toe to toe" with the finer eateries I am familiar with but actually bettered the lot of 'em!! After this most satisfying experience, I was desperate to meet the Chef behind this most Perfect Pasta dish. The waitstaff directed me to the Chef, who was extremely appreciative when I explained the aforementioned to him. Anyone out there visiting the Jersey Shore and wants to have a truly "Unique" dining experience, I strongly recommend ordering the Shrimp Pasta (or any Pasta Course) "The" Olympic Flame Restaurant. You Will Not Be Disappointed!!”
“I frequent this location during special events on the beach like Beach Blast and the Country Music Festival. The quality is just as amazing as their original location by the Wildwood sign. No walking. No lines. No waiting. They offer quality and convenience at a competitive price. Roasters usally charge me more than coffee shops that dont roast. Bliss doesnt. Most importantly, they serve with a smile and grace! The best kept secret is to take your coffee and go sit at the picnic benches above Kohr Brothers steps away. Bird's eye view. Bliss also has a bench in the shade right behind the shipping containers for a private sweeping view of the beach and rides.”
“The ice cream sandwich is good. I enjoyed picking my cookies and ice cream. However, they do not have as much ice cream as the pictures on their Facebook account or at the store. I'm hoping that is because they are training and it will get better. I will give them another chance. Margate”
“The Pierogie are delicious! Not only do they the traditional potato & onion the way my Mom use to make them….but potato & jalapeño; sauerkraut; bacon….with your choice of toppings…, It does not end there…they have dessert ones too…strawberry; blueberry; & cream cheese … with a special topping! Please check it out! Yum!!!”
“This really was a Great Place and the Food....OMG if you like Heat you definitely will Love this Place. Great People and the Portions...Oh Lord enough for 2 people....their Chicken Fajitas were Delisious...Salmon was So Good and the Shrimp...I mean everything we had was just Good. Great People. Thank You”
“Yesterday my son ordered the jerk chicken sandwich. It came on a sesame seed bun which he is allergic too. They were so accommodating when I asked if they could put it on a wrap. The cook was so worried about cross contamination, so she remade it for him and didn’t just slap the old chicken on a wrap. Love this place!”
Cheap Eats
“One of the best spots in Wildwood! The cheesesteaks are incredible — fresh meat, perfect bread, and VERY generous portions. Friendly staff, quick service even when it’s busy, and a great atmosphere. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to every summer. Highly recommend!””
“We were here in wildwood for a short vacation and our motel was just a few minutes down the street so we figured we would stop at this cute little diner.. all I have to say is WOW!! I will never be able to find another diner with as good food and amazing people as this one. The staff was so nice, and the food was amazing. I got the avocado toast and my friends got the Nutella pancakes with strawberries and bananas. It tasted as good as it looked. I will continue to eat at this place every time I am in wildwood. No bad comment about this place and not to mention it is the cutest most vintage resembled diner ever.. loved everything about this place!! 1000/10 💕💕”
“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. Some of the reviews on here I find just simply mean spirited.”
“This is the spot if you are looking for great food and a family friendly atmosphere! The food was perfect, zero issues. This is the spot you want to spend your hard earned money, a family business. The highlight was talking to Joe and his wife. He is surrounded by his family and it shows that he is proud that they are all working together and serving a great product. This will be our new spot when we come on vacation! See you next year Joe!”
“We had an amazing experience on our wedding day last weekend at Duffinetti’s. The owner was extremely accommodating and dedicated to making our day extra special. She allowed us to drop our wedding cake off prior to opening for storing, served an amazing meal for our large party, served our wedding cake and even arranged the performer to play our wedding song for our first dance. We couldn’t thank her and the staff enough for making our day amazing.”
“Our bus tour took us to the Boathouse for lunch and we all agreed it was the best meal of the trip. Fried shrimp was amazing and the staff was very attentive.”
“Generally speaking, I always enjoy going to dinner there one of the nights I'm in Wildwood. Love their pastry shop too! Only complaint is they charged me for the ice in my Bailey's. No one else at our table was charged for ice, just me. Hopefully, it doesn't happen again.”
“took both my son's there for dinner . Great atmosphere food was delicious. Most definitely Recommend.”

“We had dinner last night. The menu was limited but we had the broiled seafood combo and the seafood risotto. The food was excellent. A big shout out to our server Nancy who was busy but took the time to give each table great service”

“Had an away HS match in Wildwood. Instead of going to Wawa again to get a bite before the bus ride home, I took the team to Crazy Junky. 14 of us were accommodated for pizza, salads, and cheesesteaks. All reviews from the team were excellent. The pizza was delicious and the service was friendly. Would recommend other HS teams traveling to Wildwood to stop by for a visit too.”
“I was a die hard Mack’s fan until we decided to try a pizza option that was outside the box in 2023. Crazy Junkie Pizza next to the Boardwalk Chapel is Amazing. The ingredients are so fresh and flavorful. The pizza is a work of art. Taste is one of a kind. Staff is so friendly and welcoming. We were just there this week for the second time while on our yearly vacation to Wildwood. The quality, tastes, and flavor profile was exactly as we remembered from last year. If you are tired of the same old pizza offerings and want an adventurous alternative then Crazy Junkie pizza hits that mark. I never write reviews for things but felt compelled to recommend this amazing hidden gem. You would be crazy to pass up the opportunity while in Wildwood. Thanks for becoming a family tradition when we visit.”

“I had the good fortune of dining at Tara's kitchen several weeks ago. In my opinion both the food and also the service was outstanding. The dish I ordered was a vegetarian dish. The manner in which the spices were added was applied with mastery. Tara kitchen of wildwood is a true treasure not to be missed by all those either living or visiting Cape May County.”

“I hope this "review" isn't out of line, but I get nostalgic about what once was the best all nite diner around, some 40 years ago. I used to work in one of the many club bands around at the time, as did many of us, and after work - 3am, 4am - I'd often be there with some band mates and there were usually performers from other bands there as well. It was sort of a wind-down party, we'd get a little louder than we should and would sometimes be reminded there were other patrons there too 😁 but we were at least decent tippers to assuage our guilt 😂. I loved going to the Red Oak. I remember one specific seasonal item I always got when available - a bowl of fresh strawberries. Along with breakfast foods like pancakes, eggs, and bacon. Anyway, I get that it's weird that I'm doing a review from the 1980s, but it really was memorable!”
