[Spotlight: Places to Eat] Bistro 14


Plain grilled burger and bacon - the kids' favorite meal
We were vacationing on Long Beach Island, NJ last month and one of our favorite restaurants is Bistro 14 in Beach Haven. They have a really nice menu filled with both seafood favorites and land lover's standards. The fried scallops are divine and every time I eat there, that's what I order. They also have a good selection in the raw bar with fresh seafood coming in daily. Dinner there around sunset is amazing as you can sit outside and watch the sun come down. The restaurant is BYO, they'll cork and chill. Check out Zagat's review on Bistro 14.
But more importantly, the kids, with their severe food allergies can eat there. They're able to have their favorite - plain grilled burgers without seasoning and well done bacon. Erik (my husband) and I spoke with our server and she was able to have the kitchen cook the order in an area that was free of seafood, dairy, eggs, nuts, etc. They were very accommodating and the restaurant in general is very kid friendly.
Summer is coming to an end but if you find yourself in Long Beach Island with kids with allergies, Bistro 14 would be a good place to eat.
