Reviewed By Tara Heagele - Trenton, New Jersey
This place is always packed, so expect a wait. But with ocean views and delicious food, I'm not surprised. I had the Big Easy Benedict (a New Orleans style eggs benedict with corn bread, avocado, creole onions, peppers, chorizo, and a cajun hollandaise sauce) and a gigantic s'mores hot chocolate. This was a perfect meal to prepare me for ice skating next to the ocean. I will be back!

This is one of my family’s favorite eating spots and so I often join them when visiting in the area.
There is a wide selection on the menu, prices are midrange, average for a diner. The service is especially friendly. The food is consistently good. There is ample parking which is easily accessible from the highway.
A sure place to catch a good meal.

This visit we sat at the bar and had a delicious dinner! We started with the Nacho salad; we loved it! Then Joe got the chicken parm pizza & Barbara and I had burgers, one with cheese one without. Everyone loved their food and we had plenty to take home....and we will be going back!
4. My Kitchen Witch Cafe

My Kitchen Witch is an adorable cafe open generally for breakfast, brunch and lunch. It is lovely and the food is great, but a little far away for us for those meals. However, on Friday night the serve three course, price fix, dinners for $29.95. You can, and should, bring your own wine or beer. There are always two choices ( generally a soup or a salad) to start, three choices (generally meat, fish and vegetarian) to follow, and two choices for dessert. Last night the six of us dined on shaved Brussels sprouts ceasar salad or dairy free asparagus soup to start, bacon wrapped fillet with sun dried mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, or seared scallops over butter and brown sugar sweet potatoes with grilled asparagus, or a vegetarian curry. It all drew rave reviews. IMHO the desserts are the weak point, not bad but not up to the other offerings. To my taste they are too sweet. But if you like real sweets, you will almost certainly love them. Worth a visit.

Time and again my experiences at 2nd Floor are 5 star. The atmosphere is intimate, but never stuffy. The food is outrageously good, and the staff and owners/chef go beyond out of their way to make you feel like they you are not only welcome,...MoreThank you so much for telling us about your experience here @ 2nd Flr.
