    A plain slice
    Cody O.

    Surf City Pizza is you're typical Jersey Shore Pizza Joint. It has a small indoor dining area, but let's be honest, you're probably picking up, getting delivery, or just grabbing a slice to go anyway. The standard plain slice features a fluffy dough with a crisp base and good structure. The cheese is good, the sauce is slightly bitter with mild acidity. Overall, nothing to complain about.

    Stopped in with my business partner to grab lunch, we both had the Garden salad and garlic bread. It was a nice size salad and super fresh. Garlic bread was really good as well. We will stop in next time we are in the area!

    Ordered a pizza for pick up. The cheese slid right off the pie! Pizza was doughy. First & last time ordering from here! Very disappointed

    My fiancé and I were hungry after lounging around on the beach at LBI and decided to check out Surf City Pizza for lunch, after reading the good reviews for the place. We found street parking easily and though the place was crowded, we also found a table to sit at. It's very very casual. You go up to the counter and place your order and take the pizza back to your picnic - type table. My fiancé and I both got the cheesesteak pizza. We liked it well enough, but it wasn't extraordinary. It tasted a bit old. For a $4 slice of pizza, I expect more. I also got a slice of what looked like a bruschetta pizza (arugula and tomato slices with garlic on top) and liked it well enough, but it didn't have enough sauce (or any at all) and tasted a bit plain for $4. My fiancé got a meatball pizza and was also meh about it. Overall, filling food, but nothing extraordinary and not worth the prices. Service was alright. Quick, but not the friendliest. And their water machine was not working, so we ended up getting a bottle of water to share. In the future, I wouldn't rule out Surf City Pizza, but it certainly wouldn't be my first choice for lunch on the island.

    So this was my first summer visiting Lbi Me and my girlfriend made it our mission to look for the the best pizza In town so up and down the strip we went trying all the pizza spots and I have to say surf city was the best! they're crust and sauce is to die for! They're plain slice is the best and freshest but you can't go wrong w a chicken bacon & ranch slice either. The staff is friendly and welcoming they even waited after closing time for us to pick up our pie. I'm here for a week and so far I've been coming in ever day at least twice a day lol

For my dinner they were lovely in removing the beef jus from the mushroom ravioli with a butter sauce but it felt like there was no seasoning. Just the ravioli in straight melted butter which left it being a bit lackluster. It is Bring your own if you are looking to have something a bit stronger than water/soda.

What looks to be a very…read moreunassuming restaurant in a strip mall is actually an excellent and very modern local favorite. The service was excellent and the environment is relaxing. They had several dishes on the menu with their own unique twist. One of my favorites that was tried was burrata over a beet puree. I've seen burrata prepared easily over a dozen ways but never with beets. It was an excellent combination and left me wanting more. More my entree I had the sesame encrusted tuna. The portion was huge! They do not skimp here. The tuna was cooked perfectly rare and was very fresh. Surprisingly, one of the best things I ate at Manera's was the caramelized onion mashed potato's that came with my fiancés veal dish. These were out of this world and easily the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. I could have eaten an entire plate of them and that's saying something for someone that typically doesn't eat mashed potatoes! Another big perk is that Manera's is BYOB and much more reasonably priced compared to any restaurant on the island. You will surely leave satisfied after a meal here!

    I ended up back at Manera's recently and wanted to share a quick update based on my new experience…read more First, our service was yet again spectacular! The waiter was caring, friendly, and professional. Secondly, the food was great, and actually even better than the last time. I started my lunch with a cup of their Chicken Tortilla Soup, which had a lightly spicy tomato-based broth infused with loads of shredded white meat chicken and garnished with a few tortilla strips. It was flavorful, comforting, and a perfect vehicle in which to dip their crusty Italian bread. Now the real improvement came from my selected entree. While the Asian Shrimp Salad that I had ordered previously was just mediocre, the Seared Tuna Salad that I got this time was delicious! The plate included mixed greens, sliced avocado, julienne cucumbers, pickled onions, cherry tomatoes, and sesame-crusted, sushi-grade tuna, which I ordered seared to a medium rare. The fish was tender and perfectly cooked. Cups of wasabi and Asian dressing were served on the side and further infused a tangy heat to the dish. It was colorful, textural, and simply delicious. It was a real winner! Manera's Restaurant provided yet another enjoyable meal with dedicated service in a classy, yet casual, atmosphere.
