One plan most people (at least from Philadelphia) have for this summer is to visit the beach, the boardwalk and the city of Wildwood. Although Sam's Pizza Palace can easily and happily feed you and your family for the entire week, here are some of the best restaurants located in and around Wildwood, New Jersey.

1. Dogtooth Bar & Grill

Dogtooth has a very fresh feel to it. You may sit inside or outside; however, the outside is definitely more breezy and gives you the feeling of the being down the shore. Not only does the restaurant feel fresh, it tastes fresh. Dogtooth has some of the best seafood around, including its blackened scallops and crabcakes.

2. Urie's Waterfront Restaurant

This restaurant sits right on the water, so the view is beautiful, especially if you go during the sunset. Again, Urie's has amazing seafood and desserts, while providing entertainment. Most nights, Urie's has music from a speaker or a band playing, which just adds to the shore feel of the restaurant. It even contains a small arcade for your children to play in while they are waiting for the food to be cooked.

3. The Wharf Bar & Grill

The Wharf also sits on the water, so if you choose to sit outside you can catch a totally picturesque sunset. Another nice part of The Wharf is that your family chooses their own seating, so you can decide how close to the water you would like to be. Again, this restaurant has beautifully displayed seafood.

Although I have spoken much about the seafood of these restaurants (just because that's my favorite part of them), there is plenty of other options for individuals who do not prefer to eat seafood.

4. Pasta Pesto

Pasta Pesto has more of an Italian feel to it, but the food is very fresh and very appetizing. Your mouth begins watering as soon as you open the menu, especially once you see the chicken Parmesan. This whole restaurant is inside, so it provides the feeling of not only home, but a top-notch home-cooked meal.

These are four of the best restaurants in Wildwood, New Jersey and you will be sure to enjoy your vacation even more if you have a meal at these select locations.
