    What a cute place with delicious food and friendly, attentive staff. We shared the Orale Benedict which is a spicy version of eggs Benedict. We ordered without the chorizo and the server suggested we replace with steamed spinach. It was delicious. The dish is served with potatoes. It was enough for two people!

    One of the better breakfast spots in Margate. I really really enjoyed the eggs Benedict. The couple next to me had French toast which they also said was delicious. I want go back for the banana crêpe with Nutella. Service was fast, and the menu was very affordable.

    Beautiful brunch spot , must come for the brunch tower! I look forward to coming here every time im in AC. Hands down best brunch spot even compared to the popular places in NYC.

    Cheesesteak Omelet with Sides of Sausage and Fresh Fruit
    Josh D.

    Velo Cafe was a standout, small cafe experience. When we arrived around noon, the place was popping with customers, yet the wait was only five minutes and the service was exceptional. They got us seated relatively quickly at a nice and shaded table, and they offered a water bowl for our dog with ice, being a hot summer day. We had one waitress, but several additional staff members were flowing around the outdoors, all making conversation and helping with the orders. It was an impressive flow! The only reason I am reluctantly giving four instead of five stars was the food. While the sides (potatoes, fresh fruit, sausages) and presentation were great, the entrees themselves were a bit lackluster. The cheesesteak omelet was very bland, being heavy on the provolone cheese and very low on the meat and peppers. My partner's order was also reportedly good, but not anything great. It's possible that we came on a bad day, with the waitress mentioning that one of the chefs had to go home early, but until we revisit, which I'd like to, we'll have to wait and see. Still, definitely a worthwhile stop on any passing journey or summer beach vacation!

    Matcha pistachio iced latte

    This is an absolutely amazing breakfast and brunch spot close to Atlantic City and Brigantine. I had the iced matcha and pistachio latte with oat milk and it was so tasty! The orale benedict was so unique and incredible with ground chorizo, perfectly poached eggs, Cajun hollandaise, and a sweet potato base. The servers were kind, attentive, and accommodating with our four month old baby. I look forward to coming back for lunch or dinner soon!

    Philly cheesesteak eggs Benedict

    Delicious breakfast at the Jersey Shore. The cheesesteak eggs Benedict, house omelette, and avocado toast were all amazing. Service was excellent too!

    We love Velo Cafe! We have bern here 5 times in 2 weeks and it never disappoints. The omelettes and eggs Benedict are awesome. Chicken panini's were fresh and delicious. Avocado toast and chicken w: waffles are a favorite. Mabel and Trinity offer outstanding service. We always leave there happy and highly recommended!!

    While in Atlanta City, we decided to check out the Velo Cafe. We made last-minute reservations, so we were glad that they could fit us in. The staff we very nice and friendly as we entered the restaurant. We were seated immediately. They gave us fresh bread to start, which was delicious. My daughter decided on the Fresh Pasta Special. I don't know what was in it, but she said it was delicious. (See photo). I got the Velo Chicken. It was roasted chicken breast with onions,mushrooms, tomatoes & goat cheese. Out of 10, I give it an 8. It was very good just need more vegetables and less meat (if you can believe that). Just a big plate of meat.. We also got a seafood salad to share. It was delicious. It had Shrimp, Octopus, Arugula, Cherry tomatoes, fennel & Celery tossed in a lemon olive oil. Everything was delicious but my only complaint is I don't like gratuities added to my bill. Other than that I enjoyed my time there. I would recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

    Mascarpone Stuffed French Toast
    Joshua M.

    A great brunch for down the shore. Orale Benedict was hearty, light, delicious, and refreshing all at the same time. I usually don't expect much from French Toast, but the Mascarpone French Toast was just superb, a must get. The place can get packed, and they squeeze you in pretty tight; but it is worth it. A damn fine brunch. Food (B+)  Pricing (D+)  Atmosphere (B)  Service (B)

    Farro Salmon
    Dolly M.

    Our friends made a reservation for six at Velo Restaurant in Ventnor, NJ. During the busy summer season this lovely spot is usually booked! We tried to get a reservation the weekend after Labor day; we were glad to get in! This place is BYOB and each couple brought adult beverages ranging from wine to a mixer for cosmos! As soon as we were seated, our server came right over to welcome us & offer us openers for our drinks. After hearing the specials we were ready to order! Our meals did not disappoint! Each one was served warm & tasted delicious! I shared a Velo Salad,- and ordered the Farro Salmon. Yummmm! Others had chicken and a different kind of ginger salmon and everyone agreed they really loved their meal! I highly recommend this restaurant, and hope to enjoy many more meals there! Their desserts are awesome too.

I ordered a sauteed flounder fish platter which came with simple mixed vegetables and coleslaw. The fish was so moist and tender and swimming in a mildly seasoned lovely broth. The veggies were seasoned and buttery, simple and delicious . The cole slaw was homemade but unremarkable. $8.99 for this healthy meal. Sign me up! Spouse ordered the soft flour shell, fried shrimp tacos and boy were they huge! He asked for the slaw on the side so it wouldn't make the tacos soggy, and got two full-sized side orders of coleslaw with his two tacos. For $5 each. No frills just good food.

    We enjoyed an outstanding dinner here! While staying nearby in Atlantic City for a conference, we…read morereally wanted to get away from that nasty area and one of our colleagues lives in the area and suggested we try Steve & Cookies. We got there and it looked, calm, simple, and plain from the outside - until we walked in... this place was PACKED! Clearly, since we didn't make reservations, we weren't going to enjoy seating at their white table cloth tables in the main dining room, but we went around back to their bar and scored one last table there. Our server, Brian was amazing... engaging... and on point! They have a nice wine list and perfect spirit list. They also have an outstanding menu loaded with so many options, that I really just needed to settle on the first thing I saw that looked good. For me, I love cucumbers and when I saw they had a cucumber salad, done Asian style, I was completely in!!! Then I saw their soup of the day was split pea with bacon and since no one serves split pea and when they do, it's rarely what I expect, I got that too! Both of these came out looking GREAT! The cucumber salad had a nice spice to it and the flavors overall were sooo on point! That split pea soup was also great... almost perfect! It had the exact texture this soup should have and the flavor was very nice. For my entrée I saw a few of the halibut as I was walking through the dining room, so that is what I chose. The halibut came out looking great! It was PERFECTLY prepared too!! The flavors were spot-on, and the accompanying veggies were great too. We were enjoying dinner so much that we didn't want it to end, even though we were full... so, we ordered desserts too. I opted for the banana cream pie, as this is another item I rarely see on a menu and when I do, it's rarely done right, but not here... they did it perfectly! Overall, amazing meal... Highly recommend stopping in, but make reservations first!

    For me this is my go to favorite for meals that are well prepared, with a varied selection, and…read morepriced appropriately for a fine dining experience. Their summer tomato appetizer is probably the most popular of all. There are so many positive reviews that back me up about all that is great about the place, I thought that I might make a few suggestions for areas that could use improvement. First involves parking. They have very little and are using almost half of the space for outside services I don't quite understand. This means dropping off your party and hunting the neighborhood for a place to park. This leads to the second negative. The receptionist is a bit unforgiving if your ENTIRE party is not physically in the house. So if you are out foraging for a place to park you are out of luck. Next there is the bread service. Despite the fact that they are connected with a bakery there is an up charge for bread. This is a small thing, but really unnecessary as prices for the main part of the meal certainly compensate for a few slices of bread. Finally there is the reservation process. It seems like tables are held and not available for the general public. If you use the "notify" feature in RESY, there is a chance that one of these reserved tables will be released. This is annoying at best. All that said this is probably the best restaurant in the area.

No worries, I used the ranch from the wings and all was good. I liked the shaved Parmesan and the fact that someone took the time to slice the tiny grape tomatoes, precious. Wings were crunchy and spicy in all the right places. The Squire Burger had huge pieces of maple bacon sticking out from two patties cheese and iceberg. The fries were perfect. The bun was fluffy and glistening on top. Beautiful. We were surprised at the small bill, but left very satisfied. Highly recommend!
