1. Renault Winery
$$$ | |In operation for more than 150 years, the Renault Winery has become a destination in its own right encompassing an 18-hole golf course; Château Renault, a 55-room hotel; festivals and seasonal events. Dining options include the Renault Wine & Beer Garden; the Parisian-inspired Café la Fleur, perfect for pastries, cookies, and coffee drinks; and Taste 1864 which offers classic American fare. To get here from Atlantic City, take U.S. 30 west for about 30 miles.

2. 410 Bank Street
$$$ | |The Cape May newspaper Exit Zero described Bank Street's cuisine as part Key West, part French Caribbean, part New Orleans. Mesquite-grilled local fish steaks, dry-aged New York strip steak, and bayou oyster stew are flavorful stand-outs. Dine on the porches or in the garden courtyard of the 1840s cottage. The place pulses with life—from the jovial diners singing the praises of Chef Henry Sing Cheng to the greenery that clings and climbs the walls. BYOB.
410 Bank St., Cape May, New Jersey, 08204, USA609-884--2127Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: No lunch, Credit cards accepted, Reservations essential -
3. Amada
$$$ | |The rustic atmosphere of the Atlantic City outpost of Chef Jose Garces's tapas-style restaurant is the perfect accompaniment to a night out at the Ocean Casino Resort. The Spanish-inspired menu includes dishes like bacon-wrapped dates, Spanish omelet, crab-stuffed peppers, and seafood paella, but if you're feeling really hungry opt for the chef’s tasting menu or the suckling pig.
500 Boardwalk, Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401, USA609-783--8000Known For
- Great place for dining with a group
- Atlantic Ocean views
- Authentic tapas dishes

Rate Includes: Closed Mon. and Tues. No lunch -
4. Angeloni's II
$$$ | |In the traditionally Italian Ducktown section of Atlantic City, this restaurant serves family-style beef, veal, and seafood dishes. The braciole (rolled veal stuffed with sausage and cheese) is perennially popular, the wine list is extensive, and the kitchen is open late on the weekends. Its brick exterior certainly doesn't impress, but inside is a welcoming, if minimally adorned, dining room that recalls the mom-and-pop eateries that used to be common throughout town. The surrounding neighborhood has seen better days. It's advisable to drive or take a cab.
2400 Arctic Ave., Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401, USA609-344--7875Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Credit cards accepted, Daily 11–11 (until 1 on Fri. and Sat.), Reservations essential -
5. Black Duck on Sunset
$$$ | |Named after a frequent flier in local skies, the Black Duck is just past the historic district in the small borough of West Cape May. White walls, wicker paddle ceiling fans, and black-and-white photos of old Cape May lend an island sensibility. An infusion of Asian and Latin flavors sparks the steaks and seafood on its contemporary American menu. Feel free to shield your eyes from the winged mascot painted on the restaurant's sign when you order the slow roasted honey-glazed duck or the Southwestern duck confit, but don't feel the least bit guilty about it. A three course early-bird menu is a fantastic deal at just over twenty dollars. BYOB.

6. Borgata Buffet
$$$ | |Casino dining often equals buffet and buffet often equals disappointment. At the Borgata, they strive to remove the disappointment from that equation. Hand-carved prime rib, sirloin, a variety of shellfish, Chinese standards, sushi, salads, pasta, tables full of desserts—almost all the usual suspects are here (sorry king crab leg fans). Popularity keeps everything fresh and the room rates and table minimums at the casino keep the quality high. The dining room is pleasant, with deep comfortable booths, but its more functional than fashionable.
One Borgata Way, Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401, USA609-317--1000Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Mon.–Thur. 8–8, Fri. and Sun. 8–9, Sat. 8–10, Reservations not accepted -
7. Chef Vola's
$$$ | |Small, intimate, and exclusive, this Italian restaurant draws a seemingly endless stream of regulars. The steak, veal, and homemade pasta dishes earn high marks, as does the service and the homemade cream pies. The only problem is landing a reservation as they give preference to those who have dined with them before, or to those who at least know someone who has dined with them before. BYOB.
111 S. Albion Pl., Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401, USA609-345--2022Known For
- Hard to-get reservation
- Family-style dining
- Homestyle Italian dishes

8. Dolce Mare
$$$ | |It'll be hard to tear yourself away from those amazing ocean views, but when you do, you'll be rewarded with a delicious Italian-inspired menu of handcrafted pasta, fresh seafood dishes such as tagliatelle al frutti di mare (scallops, prawns, blue crab, and clams), and delicious "carne" options like chicken parmigiana or the 14 oz NY strip steak. Be sure to make reservations well in advance, especially if you want a seat by the floor-to-ceiling windows.
500 Boardwalk, Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401, USA609-783--8000Known For
- Great ocean views
- Reservations are a good idea
- Tagliatelle al frutti di mare with scallops, prawns, blue crab, and clams

9. Spring Lake Gourmet Pizzeria and Restaurant
$$$ | |Order large, cracker-crisp pizzas at this pizzeria with dinette tables. The white pizza is delicious, as is anything with the Italian sausage. Or you might try the fried calamari, then choose your favorite pasta combined with your favorite sauce to make a meal. They jar the most popular sauces and sell them to-go. They recently added a family style dining menu, where each item ordered serves up to four people.
1110 3rd Ave., Spring Lake, New Jersey, 07762, USA732-449--9595Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Credit cards accepted, daily from 11 (until 10 or 11 in summer) -
10. The Breakers on the Ocean
$$$ | |You might try veal Parmigiana, a tender New York strip steak, or flounder marechiare (with shrimp). Both service and food are first class, yet the restaurant is casual enough that you may wear nice shorts and deck shoes. Breakfast and lunch are served on a long, sunny enclosed veranda near the pool. Lunch choices include burgers, club sandwiches, and pizza.
1507 Ocean Ave., Spring Lake, New Jersey, 07762, USA732-449--7700Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Credit cards accepted, Apr–mid-Dec daily from 8 -
11. Union Park
$$$ | |An oil painting hangs over the fireplace mantle, wall sconces add soft light, and extravagant bouquets of flowers dress the room. You could be dining at your sophisticated auntie's house circa 1870, but would she have had a chef of the Union Park caliber preparing New American dishes like seared duck breast with duck confit hash or vanilla chai glazed short rib with smoked bacon marmalade? We think not. The restaurant is in the Hotel Macomber.
727 Beach Ave., Cape May, New Jersey, 08204, USA609-884--8811Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Closed Tues., Credit cards accepted, Daily in season, and Thur.–Sun. off season., Reservations essential -
12. Washington Inn
$$$ | |Pull out your good shoes and jacket: you're dining in an 1840s Victorian plantation home that's romantic enough for the O'Hara's of Tara. The Washington Inn has five dining areas, one of which is a wine cellar where 10,000 bottles await the uncorking. Flights of wine are available for those who prefer to take their cues from the sommelier. As for your meal, you can't go wrong starting with rock shrimp and lobster bisque, followed by bacon-wrapped twin pork tenderloins, and a dessert of fresh berries and chocolate mousse.
801 Washington St., Cape May, New Jersey, 08204, USA609-884--5697Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Closed Tues.--Wed., Credit cards accepted, Memorial Day–Columbus Day, nightly; Mar.–May,Oct., and Dec., Fri.–Sat.; Jan., Feb, and Nov., Sat. only., Reservations essential
