Yelp user's review:

"Fast service, excellent sandwiches! I had a turkey club and my husband had the steak sandwich. Both delicious. Our uncle had the chili and it was great too. We ate outside in the garden, surrounded by amazing roses."

Richard's Sub World and Deli - 796 Atlantic City Boulevard, Bayville
Locals rave about this little delicatessen set off of Route 9. There is no indoor dining area, but that doesn't seem to matter much to customers. There are some tables outside for outdoor dining.

Yelp user's review:

"Best subs in the area hands down... Maybe in Ocean County. This place has every type of hot or cold sandwich, soups and salads. The service is quick even though the place is always packed. The line goes quick and the food is always fresh. You can also get your cold cuts from them as well as Lottery tickets. Great drink selection and chips as well. The short lady with the glasses is my favorite as she is always eager to please and customize a sandwich the way you want it. I actually love her. An employee like that is what makes this place a 5/5 because the service matches the food. I love Richards Sub World!"

Linda's Pizza, 381 Ocean Gate Drive, Ocean Gate

Pizza, Italian dishes, free delivery, large portions. Limited inside dining available.

Yelp user's review:
"Love Love Love Lindas! We order from here at least once a week. The salads are amazing. They are never cheep with the chicken or toppings. Everything is always fresh. Chicken Parm sub is awesome. Pizza is great! Highly recommended."

Sensa - 333 Atlantic City Boulevard, Bayville

Pizza, pasta, Italian dishes. Indoor dining.

Yelp user's review:

“I have endured years of awful Italian food in Ocean County and have finally found one that compares to those I frequented in Bergen County and NYC.”
