    Breakfast sandwich
    Teacher P.

    Friendly owners and staff, great prices and delicious food! Must try the cheesesteaks and breakfast. Came here for breakfast before hitting the beach. Great outdoor seating and dog friendly. Breakfast omelettes were so good and it came with crunchy tasty tater tots. Gluten free rolls available for any meal!

    Pork Roll, Egg, and Cheese

    This place is absolutely amazing! In my opinion a hidden gem in surf city. If you are coming to LBI or in Surf City definitely stop by Dios Cafe. They do not skimp you on your order, as most places do. Their food is always fresh and is ready fast! I was greeted by two workers who were very kind, even the cook said hi to me! The location has a great beach vibe aesthetic. Tons of seating and a beautiful interior design. I highly recommend dios!

    We loved the holiday, lodge's feel that this restaurant has, and the food is delicious too! We sat…read morein the bar area, and the bartenders were great! There was one guy playing guitar music, not too loud, which made the atmosphere cozy. They have a great cocktail list if you want to try something new. The wedge salad was large and had a twist- it had a different type of dressing, crispy onion on top, and traditional blue cheese crumbles. The cheese steak comes with thick-cut fries, and the crab cake main had coleslaw on the side, which was crisp and served with a light dressing. Looking forward to dining again soon.

    So, Wifey and I always have one night out alone (the kids go out and do the same) and tonight we…read moredecided to try The Arlington. We weren't 100% sold because of some of the reviews, but still gave it a shot. We made a 6pm reservation online and were able to park in the lot adjacent to the restaurant. We were seated immediately and the hostess gave us a table by the front window. Nice, out of the way, allowed us to chat and people watch. We were initially shocked at how empty the place was for a 6pm reservation, but by the time we were done the place was packed. Out waitress came over and took our drink order (she never introduced herself, which always kind of annoys me). I ordered the Barrel -aged Manhattan (it came on the rocks though I ordered it up) and Wifey ordered The Maverick - gin, Aperol, lemon, Ginger, mint. For starters we had the Steamers special - in a white wine garlic butter sauce with grilled or charred shallots and Chargrilled oysters with spinach, panko, cheddar, and hot sauce. For our entrees Wifey had the NY strip with seasoned potatoes and I had the Crab cakes. Steak was excellent...the crab cakes were small for the price, but full of meat. Delicious Cole slaw. Appetizers were also great - my steamers were different than I've ever had because the flavor of the shallots really added a ton of flavor. Drink prices are ridiculous (they are everywhere on the island, but especially for the size of the Maverick. Food was great, service was ok (though our waitress wasn't very enthusiastic), you'll pay Island prices here, and place gets VERY loud so be aware.

    This, for sure, has to be the single best meal we have ever had on Long Beach Island. When we…read morearrived, we were seated promptly and were given a large table to accommodate our party of seven. Ben came straight over and introduced himself and told us some of the specials and allowed some time to peruse the menu. We knew that we had to get the children their food first for us to enjoy our meals and we ordered pasta and flounder for the girls and a cheeseburger and fries for the little boy. It's hard to imagine that a restaurant can be very classy while being at the beach and a very casual atmosphere but people were mixed in their dress with those of us who were more casual, but somewhat dressy and others who got dressed to the nines to enjoy their meal out with friends or family. We decided on the advice of Ben to get some duck confit and also some tang tang shrimp and also Nice chopped salad which was fresh and crisp and also some tacos and then we were off to the races with our entrées. We all decided to choose something different and give a little bite to each of the members of our adult party. While I had seared sea scallops my buddy had salmon. My wife chose a salad with some grilled shrimp And my buddies wife decided to have a plate of muscles that she enjoyed immensely. The staff was fantastic in that they took away dirty plates and replaced them with new ones and made sure that the kids had everything that they needed for us to enjoy a quiet and adult conversational meal. Compared to Long Island, NY the prices were really very fair and the quality of the food was very very good. My scallops were excellent and the other plates that I tried all were cooked perfectly. I want to give a special shout out to Ben, our server, for being very friendly and his demeanor while explaining the menu and offering suggestions. I really do look forward to our next trip back

We started off with some 'doubles' for our drinks as we got settled and ordered a couple of other rounds during the trivia contest...so the bill added up quickly, but we had a blast with the trivia and ended up winning. I know this place has mixed reviews but we had a great time.

Whether we were dining with a group of 9, an extended party of 16, or just enjoying a casual dinner at the bar, the service was consistently excellent. The staff handled everything with ease and professionalism - especially impressive given that our groups included anywhere from 3 to 6 children. They made sure the kids' meals came out quickly (a huge plus for us), and their attention to detail was excellent, even with the larger parties. The food was solid and well priced across the board. We tried everything from burgers and sushi to flatbreads, chicken, and the raw bar, and everything was fresh and prepared well. Drinks were also a strong point - reasonably priced, delivered promptly, and followed up on without us ever needing to ask. A nice touch during our visits was the live music - it kept the kids entertained and added to the laid-back, fun atmosphere. Even our evening at the bar stood out - we enjoyed the same great service and were able to take advantage of their happy hour specials. The updates that have been made here have only enhanced what was already a reliable, welcoming spot. Surf City Bistro continues to be one of the most family-friendly and consistently enjoyable dining options right in the heart of Surf City. We will be back again soon.

This place is classy and casual at the same time. The food and atmosphere are fantastic and truly the only thing that might overshadow the great food and atmosphere is the AMAZING FRIENDLY STAFF... they are the best !! From Rachel at the front desk to Jill, Colton and Ryan at the bar you just can't ask for better service or nicer genuine people. We have been coming back to this hotel for years now and continue to love everything about it. Whether you are there for drinks, dinner or a hotel stay you will see the manage John, making his rounds to make sure you are happy. Very impressive. It is service like this that keeps us coming back year after year. It is truly our happy place at the Jersey Shore .We checked out yesterday and are already anxious for our next visit.

The last time I came here, I was a kid and the place was an Irish pub called Wida's. Daddy O might be the best meal on LBI. We enjoyed Spanish octopus, an Asian fusion salad, and a special of lobster tail stuffed with lump crab meat (wow). The solid menu is well complimented by an extensive drink list including house cocktails, wine (truly a global wine list, so refreshing for an LBI restaurant), and beer. Service is elevated for South Jersey. Not the briskest pace, but everyone is very warm and welcoming. Overall this place is sneakily good and delivers. I'd much prefer this to some of the other restaurants on the island, many of which are overpriced and mediocre.
