By Kim Magaraci | Published December 31, 2021

Dining down the shore is always a treat. It’s even more lovely when you can enjoy a gourmet meal in a quiet spot just steps from the beach! Chef Mike’s Atlantic Bar and Grill is located on the beach in Seaside Park, adjacent to the entrance to Island Beach State Park.

This locally-famous restaurant doesn't look like all that much from the outside...

...but when you step in, the elegance might take your breath away.

Delicate table settings and enormous windows set the stage for an amazing meal. You'll have a view of the beach from anywhere in the restaurant. Watch the sky light up with color during a sunset dinner, or just take it all in while the light shines through.

If you would rather dine outside on a sunny day, the tiki bar area is set on the beach. There's nothing like dining with the sand between your toes!

Of course, no matter how beautiful a setting is, it's the food that matters, right? Luckily, Chef Mike is one of the best of the best.

He's been making waves in the New Jersey culinary scene for decades, and foodies all know that if Chef Mike is in charge of the kitchen, it's going to be an amazing meal.

Come on in for seafood that's so flavorful and fresh it will make you feel like you're dining under the sea! Whether you go with something indulgent like lobster...

... or just shoveling down shrimp and oysters, you can't go wrong with anything on their nautical menu.

If seafood isn't your favorite, try a steak or chicken dish, or maybe a pasta. Everything on the menu is fresh and packed with flavor.

For those who enjoy a cocktail, glass of wine, or brew with their meal, the full bar offers plenty of options, from classics to creative creations.

If you can somehow manage to save room for dessert, we commend you. You'll be rewarded with a sweet treat that wraps up one of the best meals you can have in New Jersey.
