Restaurants near Seaside Park

“They have the best seafood around🥰”

“Really enjoy this place great raw bar”

“70 flavors! I may have to spend the whole next summer to try them all.
So far my favorite was coffee oreo. WOW. My dog turned towards the shop every night for his pup cup.
The staff could not have been lovelier.”

“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 love White Oak subs! 😋 It’s our goto for beach lunches.”

“Oh boy that experience was 🤩”

“We started dining here as a family this past summer and fall. The food is always delicious and the service is very friendly and attentive!”

“This is our first purpose in going to Seaside, 2nd is walking the boardwalk. Fish is always done to perfection, never overcooked never undercooked. Always cooked to perfection 👌”

“I just wanted to reach out & thank your staff on duty from Friday 8/18 Especially Rod/Ron the Manager (my apologies I don't remember his name exactly) for outstanding customer service! We were at the restaurant Friday evening. It was the last night of our family Seaside Vacation and our first time dining at The Sawmill. We were seated promptly(young hostess with curly hair and an air cast), drinks & food orders were taken very quickly(female server with dark curly hair and an accent). Our beverages came out in a flash, and our appetizers were moments behind. When my teenage son reached across for some tasty pretzel bites...he knocked his full orange soda into his lap (and shirt) , onto the floor, & even onto me! We sent him to the restroom to try and clean himself up while we motioned for help, we didn't want anyone to slip on the wet floor! Within seconds your staff responded in the best possible way. Your manager was mopping up the floor, our server was bringing a replacement soda, one of the ladies bussing tables hustled over with towels. By the time my son returned from the restroom my husband and I were discussing how to proceed (Run back to the house to change or by new clothes on the boardwalk) when Rod/Ron appeared on bended knee next to my son with Sawmill t-shirts in tow asking his size so he could change his shirt. My son initially refused because; it was "all his fault & he didn't deserve it" but; Rod/Ron persisted and convinced my son that these kinds of things happen to everyone. A point I was just making to my child, when my son heard this he accepted. The way your staff responded in the moment took what could have been an awful end to our vacation into a very bright spot because of how attentive and supportive your staff was. It means more than you will ever know. Please take a moment & thank your staffers on our behalf. Thank you, Monica, Andy, & AJ Mossey”

“This place has amazing food in a beautiful location….on the beach! Chef Mike was so gracious and generous when he agreed to have our wedding at his restaurant. The staff were amazing! Food was incredible and if I had to do it again, I wouldn’t change a thing! Thank you for making our day so special!”

“We stopped on the way home from Island beach state park. The crew that worked here were super super friendly and nice. The ice cream was one of the best I've ever had. We'll for sure stop again next time we go to island beach state park or maybe we'll just take a ride there anyway it was worth it. Shout out to the employees they were great

Kid-friendliness: The staff was super kid friendly. Never felt rushed as my grandson had trouble deciding. There were so many flavors to choose from”

“I work on the boardwalk in seaside heights cleaning the boards and the last several weekends I’ve come there to get pretzels and there always fresh, hot and very enjoyable and it’s always the same 2 young lady’s working and they always have a smile on there face and always very polite job well done!”

“workers can be better and alittle nicer!”

“A really nice beach bar. Laid back vibe. I would definitely go again. The bar is great for people watching too!”

“Stopped here for some food after our trip to the beach and loved the boba and food! My kid said the grilled cheese was “Bussin” and the donut grilled cheese was amazing according to my older child! Definitely would go to try something else on the menu!”

“very friendly, best freshest fries around and classic New Jersey pizza. the smaller size of fries (cup) is actually huge and enough for 2-3 people, and the pizza slices are huge so they're worth the prices.”

“What kind of oil do they fry food ? Do they use peanut oil or soy bean oil”

“It was a nice restaurant with good views and live musics! It’s connected to their arcade so you can enjoy both. Food was good and staffs were friendly. It’s kind of expensive but if you consider the location I think it can be reasonable. I really enjoyed the music and atmosphere there too. It was nice :)”

“The flounder basket was excellent- lightly battered with plenty of fresh French fries. The surprise gem was the spicy pineapple hot dog. It the bun was a bit more stable it would have been a blue ribbon winner. Bartender Steve was welcoming and attentive.”

“From start to finish they NEVER disappoint. The shores greatest gem!!!”

“Jennifer was fantastic! She is very friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant. She went over all the new menu items. I ordered a special drink and she went out of her way to see if the bar had the ingredients to make it. She paid a lot of attention to us as appropriate. We appreciated her thoughtfulness and great service. PF Chang has fabulous food we loved everything.”

“Another great time at the Music Man. We visit in the Summer season and always for the Christmas season. Aggie and the singing waiters/waitresses are an absolute pleasure. They are all talented and fun....and the ice cream is delicious!!”

“Hi everyone, am so so happy to like your page on Facebook, am a huge fan and also one of your follower on IG”

“Generous, kind family owned businesses. Fabulous food. Imbedded within our community, year after year. To which, you will feel part of OUR COMMUNITY…. Most of all their family love..”

“great food great service great ambiance ....I'll be back”

“Fantastic food and service! Can’t wait to come back, great, friendly atmosphere.”

“I would give them 3 out of 5 stars. since the day they opened, inconsistent with food and drinks. one day the sliders are medium, the next well done. one day your $16 martini is full, the next it's missing the top inch of the drink. one day the pizza is ok, the next time is soup. last time the service was just ok. tonight she was great.”

“We attended an evening meal.
The food was fantastic. The selection and the suplement closing while we dined was the only drawback. The supplement menu was going to be closed which made us rush our order.
The drinks were great and even made to order. They came in a decent amount of time well done.
Easy parking
The staff I have to say should be commended. They were there when we needed and supportive and friendly throughout the meal. I will be honest we had a difficult personality with us but the staff had him smiling and happy. Again great staff!

The setup of the location is down a long corridor. With a very long walk to the end if you need the restrooms. You need to pass the kitchen (VERY CLEAN!!) and an event space.
When we attended the restaurant was not packed but it was still very loud.

Beyond that a wonderful place, wonderful meal, and a wonderful night.

“The best service and food.”
