Need some dining ideas while you are in town for this weekend’s events? Why not start the day off with a stroll along the boards and then pick one of these great local restaurants!
For dinner, try Spicy Cantina on the boardwalk, and try to grab an outdoor table upstairs for sweeping views while enjoying a margarita and Tex-Mex fare (weather permitting). How about crabs and delicious seafood? Head down to nearby South Seaside Park to Bum Rogers Tavern & Crab House. If you’re looking for fine dining with sweeping ocean views, head to Chef Mike’s ABG at the beginning of Island Beach State Park.
If you’re in the mood for a few drinks and some live music, we recommend checking out JR’s Ocean Bar and Grill on the boardwalk (where you can also grab a late night slice of the world famous Marcua’s pizza).
Seaside Heights: Clean beaches that are continually voted some of the best at the shore, delicious restaurants, family friendly entertainment, and a boardwalk that will make anyone smile.
“Your home for family fun since 1913!”
