If your wallet and cardiologist allow it, a trip to the steakhouse at Ocean Casino Resort will reward with bone-in ribeye, Wagyu strip steak, rack of lamb, crispy Brussels sprouts, and a fantastic raw bar. This is dining at its most decadent, where you can choose whether you want your steak topped with grilled shrimp or crab meat, and it's all brought to you by Marc Forgione, a superstar chef with a midas touch. As with most steakhouses, the decor doesn't shy away from the rich and robust. Banquettes are leather, dark wood dominates, and the open kitchen gives full view of the hard work that goes into preparing such feasts.
Owned and operated by the Dougherty family since 1897, the city's oldest restaurant serves seafood in a setting of wood and stained glass engraved with nautical scenes. Sample from the raw bar, try the flounder stuffed with crabmeat, or test your mettle against a hulking steamed lobster (they sell them up to 7 lbs). The wine list is expansive and reasonably priced. A must for anyone in search of a taste of old Atlantic City.
White starched tablecloths, sleek ebony chairs, and arching potted palms banish any notion of chaos in the world. At the Ebbitt Room in the Virginia Hotel, the fireplace burns year-round, a pianist plays, and the menu dazzles with contemporary dishes like Hudson Valley foie gras parfait and grilled Duroc pork chop. Embracing the farm-to-table philosophy, the chef sources many of the ingredients from the local Beach Plum Farm. Arrive early and have a glass or two of the signature punch from a seat on the front porch.
The historic Flemish building that holds this restaurant started as a private gentlemen's club in 1912 and was frequented by the notorious power brokers of the day until it was raided by Prohibition agents in 1927. Today it's owned by the Dougherty family, whose four generations have operated Dock's Oyster House, and seafood—from diver scallops and crab cakes to lobster preparations—shines here, while rib-eye, filet mignon, and rack of lamb satisfy landlubbers. Parties of eight or more can take advantage of their Private Dining option, with prix-fixe meals served in intimate rooms.
