The menu is MASSIVE, don't come if you're indecisive or if you don't plan to come back to try more dishes ! The waitstaff sticks to the silly bit , wearing PJs, bordering on rude but in a playful way that makes it fun and not annoying. There are so many knick knacks on the walls to look at - lots of conversation starters! We enjoyed everything we ordered (the afternoon waffle section was a fun twist on a sandwich and proved you can have it all!) and are already scheming what we will have next time we come back!

Lava Java, one of my favorite coffee spots while on vacation at the Jersey Shore. This spot is…read morepopular, so def recommend allowing yourself some time or arriving around opening (7am) The staff and service is excellent, adorable interior, and amazing offerings ~ we tried one of their super fun iced coffee flavorings, Brown Butter. Delicious! We also grabbed a slice of their homemade coffee cake. Again, delicious! And of course, some beans for our rental to make early morning coffees before the sunrise. My parents went back on their own trip and ordered a pork roll & cheese on a Kaiser roll sandwich (see pic for the ample serving size) and mentioned they had a morning/mid-day live musician serenading them while they ate outside. So fun! They offer outdoor seating and also lunch (I believe they close around 2p). Parking for most of these spots on the shore can be found on the street, although walkable pending where you're staying down the shore. Highly recommend!

While it weighs between both boardwalk nostalgia and restaurant, it doesn't know exactly what it wants to be and leans toward both. Parking is, as parking usually is on the boardwalk, difficult. The pasta is genuinely good, and the service is okay with decent outdoor seating, I believe it's one of a kind on the boardwalk and in Seaside Heights. I appreciate it for what it is, and it saved us for dinner nearby. I definitely recommend it. The menu is one page, great for not having to flip through pages of mediocre food. The dessert was also really good. Lovely place, it's not the most fancy, but it genuinely has decent beach vibes.

The food at Sand Dollar Restaurant in Lavallette, New Jersey is honestly phenomenal. Every meal…read moreI've had there has been fresh, flavorful, and worth coming back for. The staff is also absolutely wonderful friendly, attentive, and they really help create a great dining experience. Unfortunately, the older woman who appears to be the owner or manager always comes across as very unwelcoming. She often seems annoyed, frustrated, or just mad at the world, and it definitely changes the atmosphere when you walk in. It's disappointing because the rest of the team works so hard and the food is truly outstanding. If it weren't for the amazing staff and excellent food, I honestly probably wouldn't return. Thankfully, they're the reason I keep giving the place another chance.

Down at Seaside during the off-season and drive up to Samd Dollar for some breakfast. Place is…read moresuper cute, but we were the only ones there when we arrived (more arrivals after us and it was starting to fill up by the time we left). Started with some urgently needed coffee while we read the menu. I ended up getting the Lavalette special - two eggs, two pancakes, bacon, hash browns and toast (I rarely eat like this anymore so I was absolutely stuffed). Wifey ordered the Avocado Mash special. The avocado mash was seasoned perfectly with some lime and not overly salty. Toast could have been slightly more toasted, but the tomato was very good for an April tomato. Very good coffee, nothing super special, but hot and tasty. Food came quickly and was great. As I said, a cery cute place, but I bet this place is PACKED during the season. It was about half full by the time our food came so we got here just in time. Another place I'd 100% recommend.

Once we sat down our server arrived who seemed less than pleased to be serving us, he was nice enough but barley spoke with us and seemed to not want to be there. For food I had the Mediterranean omelette which truthfully was not very good, it was borderline flavorless. Additionally our server barley checked in with us. Ambiance is fine, its your typical casual brunch spot - don't expect anyone dressed well or an elevated experience. I definitely don't think this was the best showcase of Toast as I have heard great things so they may have just been having an off day. I would definitely give it another shot.

Our server was super friendly and brought us coffee and waters quickly. We both kept it simple here with my wife ordering scrambled eggs, bacon, home fries and sourdough toast and I had a ham and Swiss omelette, home fries and sourdough toast. Simple meals that came out quickly and done perfectly. I love that they the portions here are actually correct portion sizes and not an overwhelming amount of food. And I don't know what they do to their hash browns, but WOW. Tasted almost like mashed potatoes, but with the consistency of hash browns. Very good coffee and food, excellent and friendly service, small parking lot and on-street parking - this is an easy one to recommend, I would definitely come back.
