First time checking out @alp_foods in North Wildwood, New Jersey. This gem has been serving up some of the best food down at the shore for over 70 years! As soon as we walked in the door we knew we had to try the meatballs. The smell took me back in time, back to when I was a kid in my grandmothers kitchen. This was my first stop in Wildwood, I’m planning to visit a few more. If you have a place y...

"Some of the best cheesesteaks and sandwiches in Wildwood!! Cheese Fries are the best too!! Definitely check them out!"

"Ok she steaks really good plenty of steak, but we always have to ask for extra cheese and extra fried onions. If you don’t, you gotta put your own cheese on your own onions on. They make their money by asking you to put on extra stuff. Pizzas are good, but just recently I ordered a white pizza with broccoli and mozzarella cheese. It was horrible. I had a piece of pizza that had three pieces of broccoli at the bottom of the pizza slice no broccoli no mozzarella cheese on that slice at all. I previously had one that was excellent so that’s why I ordered the second one, but it was terrible had too much garlic. Also had the whole night tasting garlic. When you call half the time you always have to ask for extra crispy on the pizza. Also your french fries they’re soggy they’re not crispy enough. Only reason you do well is because you’re the only place around so people have to come there. When I order my pizzas and fries, I bring them home and put them in my oven to cook them to the correct temperature. Sorry guys you make money by people who have no other choice. If I had another choice, I would absolutely go somewhere else, but since you live around the corner from me that’s where I go and I bring it home and re-cook it."

The 12 best Jersey Shore sandwich stops

They have it at this simple counter-service joint still going strong after 71 years in North Wildwood. Among the line of Italian sandwiches — the meatballs, the cutlets, the Parms — you should pay close attention to something called an Italian steak bomb: It’s steak with melted provolone, Genoa salami, and house-made fried long hot pepper with garlic spread on a seeded roll.
