Lemma's Beach Grill - Gluten free french toast with strawberries. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wildwood Crest, New Jersey

Great little spot for breakfast right on the beach. Full breakfast menu with a nice view of the sand dunes.

I'm very confused by this restaurant. The breakfast Menu looks fabulous. Unfortunately, we arrived there in time for lunch. You are not allowed to go inside for lunch. We ordered a turkey wrap, a hotdog and a BLT. What a disappointment! Just look at the pictures. The turkey wrap was a complete joke. It was all arugula and nothing else. We all looked at each other in disbelief. There is no quality control here. The kids were very nice that worked there, but that's just not enough of a reason to go there. read more

We walked right up about 9:30 on a Sunday. We got seated right away outside. It's right on the beach so nice breeze. Quiet and fast service. It is cash only (they do have an atm). The food wasn't bad at all! Sausage, pancakes were good! The burrito was piping hot. I did think it needed a bit more cheese maybe some salt. Everything is gluten free! I didn't mind this spot. Maybe some music outside would be a good add! Try it out if you want something quick and average yummy food! read more

Very good breakfast! Cute atmosphere and friendly staff too! It is nice that its on the beach and has indoor/ outdoor seating

This place was sweet. Right on the beach, and prices were pretty modest despite that. Waitress was kind and friendly and seemed to know her stuff. Portions were large and a good way to start the day with their good-sized menu. Overall great experience, cash only though!!! read more

Finding this place was like finding a diamond in the sand! Our daughter is Gluten Free so when we researched Lemma came highly recommended. They can and do make everything (except scrapple...but who eats that these days) gluten free. The owner and staff are a fun group of humanWe absolutely love the staff. read more

A hidden GEM! You have to try! We walked there from our hotel, and I'm so glad we did! Our kids had the waffle with ice cream every day! Me and my husband tried the bagel egg sandwich and the omelette, it was delicious and the price super fair. You can tell it's a family business, everyone super kind and attentive. The place is by the beach so it was awesome to have coffee there every morning. Know they only take cash but their ATM works. It will be my place to return every year now! read more

Lemma's Beach Grill - The view from our table - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wildwood Crest, New Jersey

We had breakfast here over MDW and it was a typical greasy spoon. Being a diner lover we enjoyed what they offered. So we went back over the 4th of July wkend. After noon. Now they say they serve breakfast & lunch...but after noon you have to take it to go because their staff is done serving. Not a problem. We ordered, they didn't give the necessary supplies so we had to ask over and over...but hey, it's a busy wkend & I know good help is hard to find. Today @ 10 am we went down for a BLT. Simple right?? Apparently a breakfast spot that serves to go lunch after noon cannot possibly make a BLT before noon?? Makes sense right?? So you serve toast & u serve bacon but to put them together on a sandwich w lettuce and Mayo was far beyond their scope of practice. The owner stood there not stepping in to either back up her incompetent staff or say hey we will or will not make that at 10 am. Lastly the staff member slammed the window in the face of the person trying to order (not myself). Is this acceptable customer service ma'am?? Lemma....u have a LOT to learn about running a breakfast/lunch spot. If you need help, shoot me a message...I was in this industry for over 20 years & you are NOT doing it right. Needless to say, we will not be back, nor will we recommend you. There are plenty of greasy spoons in this town w much more capable staff & management. I'll take my business elsewhere, Toodles. read more

I came for coffee and they just kicked me out because I was getting coffee to go but I decided to sit down and keep it in a to go cup. . The girls didn't know what they were doing and the guy like almost threaten me and said sit down and don't get up. Then ended up throwing my coffee out and said get the hell out of here I'm not playing !!!!!!!!!!! He was so rude almost like abuse read more

This place is always so good and delicious! We come here every year during our vacation since it's conveniently located right next to our hotel. The service never disappoints--it's always amazing, with the staff making you feel like you're being served in the comfort of your own home. Not only is the food top-notch, but everything on the menu is homemade, and you can taste the difference. From the freshly baked muffins to the rich, flavorful food, each dish is crafted with care and attention to detail. The ingredients are always fresh, and the flavors are vibrant, making every bite a delight. Being on the beach, the restaurant is always clean and bright, with a refreshing coastal vibe that adds to the overall experience. The warmth and friendliness of the people truly make this place special and enjoyable. It's one of the highlights of our trip every year! read more

Very good food, fast, friendly service. Enjoyed the breakfast, had the Yogurt Parfait excellent! Fresh fruit, good prices for being right on the beach! Highly recommend! read more

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Great right spot on the beach.

I'm not understanding the rave reviews. We came here for lunch the weekend of August 24th. There were three tables total occupied so I figured our service would be fast. Took 30 minutes for a wrap and a sandwich. My wrap was decent, but tiny. No sides given. A little coleslaw or chips would have been good considering the size of the wrap. As a side note . . . There were a couple of servers sitting at a table wrapping silverware into napkins. One of the girls was constantly running her hand though her hair and then touching the silverware. Yuck! read more

Joe was amazing - holding down the fort. Food was delicious. Perfect beachside breakfast.

Actually, minus 2 stars !! The staff needs a technology refresher. They don't know how to answer a phone to take an order. And their website indicates that they are open to 3:30 on a Saturday...So I take the trek across the beach to get there. At 2:35 I'm told that the group in front of us will be the last group to be served. Guess it's too hard to serve the last two people in line, being there was nobody behind us. Please learn how to read a clock or update your website. Thanks for nothing...hope you enjoy your Saturday afternoon. I'll give someone else my business. read more

This is a new restaurant located in the space formerly held by flip flops cafe. There is indoor and outdoor seating. One thing I noticed about the interior is it seems brighter and less cluttered. Also, someone who appeared to be an owner was out and about. I believe this makes things run smoother and there were zero glitches today. My bf and I sat outside and enjoyed the beach view. We were warmly greeted and checked on frequently. Service is much better at this new restaurant. Meal: - the $2.99 special of scrambled eggs, potatoes and toast. It filled me and was good. - bf got the everything omelet that included toast. He enjoyed it Of note: the juice prices which are majorly inflated elsewhere are very reasonable here. We will return. read more

The smell of homemade Belgian waffles wafting in the breeze led us to stumble upon this delicious place while forging for food on a beach walk one morning. Great relaxing, friendly and laid back breakfast place on the beach. Came back a few times during our stay and food was consistently yummy. Strawberry pancakes were delicious !!!! Bring some cash, that's all they take on your next walk on the beach and hit this little spot. read more

What a lovely gem tucked away among the hotels and condos of the Crest. It's part of the Granada hotel, not visible from the street, it faces the beach. Dee M, The Rev and I enjoyed breakfast on their covered patio, chatting with the sounds of the seashore in the background. Yeah, that awesome. Food was very good. Waffle with fruit was delicious and beautifully presented. French toast got thumbs up. Bacon was nicely done. Service likewise was friendly and attentive. Wonderful way to start a day by the sea. Cash only. read more

Have been hearing quite a bit about Lemma's and decided to give it a try! I'm glad I did. Was able to get a seat outside, which was great! I ordered a mushroom, onion and Swiss omelet, requested it cooked well, and it was delicious. Cooked perfectly. Also ordered a side of bacon and that was cooked perfectly as well. They have an extensive gluten free memo and my family and friends with celiacs disease like to eat here. Would definitely go back! Also, liked the waitress. She was very friendly and could not have been more helpful. If you are in the wildwood crest area, check it out. read more

This is the place to go have breakfast if you are in the area. We have been going there every morning during our stay. I'm sure the lunch there is as good as their breakfast. Everything made with love and care. Fast service and amazing environment even with babies and kids. They made us feel like family. Please do not forget to check this amazing place out if you are in the area. Their home fries are the BEST! I wish I could give 10 stars. read more

Lemma's Beach Grill - Home fries and omelette. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wildwood Crest, New Jersey

Food was great. The portions were decent. The prices weren't bad either. Only downfall was they don't accept cards, which I knew before hand and I had cash on me. There is an ATM available on site. We arrived around 11:55 and my daughter wanted to get lunch and they told me they don't serve lunch until 12. But really? You couldn't take the order, it was only 5 minutes. But she did take the order and her food didn't come out until after her friend and I got our since we had breakfast. That was crappy. The place wasn't busy and she ordered a cheesesteak so it's not like it was a complicated meal. read more

Had breakfast here today. Initial greeting was 5 stars. Initial service was good. Family ordered food. Mine included toast. Waitress delivered all our food and said toast would be out in a minute. About 15 minutes later with no check ins after food was delivered and my meal was almost done and coffee had been empty for a while. Was asked how it was and I asked about the toast. They brought it out promptly but I ordered over easy eggs specifically to eat with toast. My meal was picked based upon my meal being ready at the same time. Family had the French toast and pancakes which they said were average. I get service and am okay with mistakes but if you don't check on a table for 15-20 minutes for breakfast that's a problem. read more

Rude staff. They like to slam the door in your face at lunch hours but quick to grab your money. I couldn't get my order in with out being cut off 3 times. Drink order wrong. Not accommodating with mozzarella cheese fries rather then orange cheese. Rude response from dad when kid asked. Lemma family is not the only place in town. read more

Why is this place so highly rated? I dont get it. Greasy little dive with medicre breakfast food. They do have gluten free but not dairy free options read more

Rude staff and confusing hours. Arrived at 1:20pm for some breakfast and the door was locked. Employee opened the sliding door and stated it was take out only now before swiftly shutting the door in our faces. Place is cash only and there is a giant sign that says ATM inside so I wanted to ask if I was still able to go inside to pull cash out to pay for breakfast. Waiting outside the window for another 4-6 minutes with zero interaction and decided to leave. Other patrons eating inside I guess they cut it off at a certain time? But that wasn't stated anywhere there was an actual sign on the door that said "Come on in, we're open". A little more courtesy would be appreciated. read more

5 stars for our breakfast! Service wasn't great but wasn't horrible. We were greeted and seated right away. Our server took some time to get to us and did the same when it came to giving us our check . I ordered pork roll, egg and cheese on a roll....and my husband ordered bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel. It was delicious! Cute decor and great views of the beach and ocean wherever you sit ! read more

ATTENTION CELIACS! This place is a gem if you are looking for gluten free finds. The owner has celiac disease and takes extra precaution in preparing your food to avoid cross contamination. I used to come here just to sit outside and look at the beach to have breakfast. Usually, I am limited to diner like places to basically fruit and eggs. However, the entire menu can be accommodated. If you are reading this review and you don't have a gluten allergy, that's okay! Just be sure to share this with anyone you know that does as I know it is difficult to find allergy friendly places when on vacation. I had a sausage, egg, and cheese on a gluten free baguette, which was amazing! The staff was also very knowledgeable of their menu even though this is a casual friendly environment. I will be returning to try their lunch menu! read more

I had just arrived in the crest with my two friends for a weekend trip, and we stopped here for breakfast. We sat almost immediately, though we noticed a bit of disorder in the busing process. Within 10 minutes or so we had placed our order - we each got some variation of the 2 eggs, home fries, and toast deal, aka the most basic order on the menu. We then waited for 45 minutes for our food to come out (I promise this isn't an exaggeration). It was obvious that all the tables around us were having the same problem. Not once did the server come over to apologize, refill our coffees, or anything. I had to say something, and even then it was another 15 minutes. When we did get our food, there was nothing that could redeem it. It was basic eggs, basic potatoes, etc., and the toast didn't come out until we were halfway through the meal. I could have made the entire meal at home in half the time. Look, it's okay if something happens in the kitchen and you're short staffed and are in the weeds. I'm not a dick, just tell me so and it's okay. But the lack of communication is what gets me - when your customer is obviously waiting an abnormal amount of time and seems unhappy, please do anything BUT ignore them. read more
