Great outdoor/indoor bar right on the water!…read more After several visits to this establishment, I can confidently say that their food does not disappoint. And in light of our COVID-19 reality right now, the Wonder Bar had adapted ample outdoor seating that's efficient and comfortable. Masks are required when using the indoor restrooms, but otherwise everything else is outdoors. We recently arrived on a Thursday evening by boat for a late snack (10:00 PM) and the kitchen was still open. We also realized that you can also enjoy a little hookah action at the Wonder Bar also. Tres cool! The crowd is diverse and we love that. Great food, cold drinks, and beautiful intercostal and sunset views. It's a great place for a bit of summer normalcy during the pandemic!

Wonder Bar has seriously gone downhill since my last visit…read more The food was mediocre, the service was underwhelming, and taking calamari off the menu was a disappointing surprise. For a place with such a great location, the overall experience simply doesn't match the potential. There also appears to be a revolving door of staff, and when you constantly see turnover, it raises questions about management and how the business is being run. The bartender was okay, but had absolutely no personality or customer engagement. Honestly, the location is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here. The beer, convenient location, and late hours are pretty much the only reasons I would consider coming back. Atlantic City has plenty of competition, and Wonder Bar needs to step it up. Great location alone can only carry a business so far.

This was my favorite meal after two full weeks of dining out in Atlantic City! After several…read morefailed attempts to go to a very popular and packed happy hour nearby, we ventured a few blocks further and were so glad we found RYFE. I started with a delightful lemon berry spritz, $4.99 on happy hour, very light and refreshing in a sneaky boozy way. Spouse ordered a draft Hidden Sands beer, also $4.99 on happy hour. Staff was unobtrusive but readily available as we dined at the bar. Only a few other patrons were there on a Sunday at 430pm. I saw one order of tacos at the end of the bar and confirmed the tortillas were indeed corn, hooray! The appetizers are impressive in variety, portion and quality. We shared them, but spouse gravitated towards the shellfish. The red sauce mussels were made spicy on request, and they were a good sized portion with a simple toasted sliced bread. A little grated parm and parsley graced the mussels. The Tres Tacos were filled with a nice carne asada. Big chunks of perfect steak, pico, avocado and melty cheese inside on corn tortillas (rare in the East). I could eat these every day! I think the tortillas needed a little more time on the flat grill, but that's my preference. Finally the calamari. I dream about finding a grilled calamari like this back home in Phoenix. No breading, just pure grilled squid rings and tentacles all tossed with garlic, seared poblanos, lemon and some greens. LOVE LOVE LOVED this dish!!! It's about time we found a meal that wasn't pub food and was yet still affordably priced. RYFE has a very talented chef, we loved the menu and preparations. These happy hour appetizers are $10 and get this, they are available for take out! Why are you only in Atlantic City RYFE? Please come to Phoenix!!

I was pleased with my shandy from Hidden Sands. I also ordered a seasonal pizza with prosciutto that was phenomenal! It was just the right amount to satisfy my hunger. The crust was perfectly crisp and the toppings were fresh and evenly distributed. The bartenders were patient and accommodating. Even a patron offered up her seat when she was leaving that was directly under a heat lamp, which was appreciated on a chill beach night. Overall, this is a great place for a good meal.

We both took sips as we walked the boards. We both looked at each other. We knew what one another was thinking....WTH?! It wasn't even a double. And for that price!! We were very upset and felt ripped off. I've been drinking gin and tonic for 30 years. So, I'm VERY familiar with it. I was lucky if it was a full shot, let alone a double. They most likely water down their liquor bottles like a lot of bars do in tourist areas. DO NOT GO! They will charge you a ridiculous amount of money for watered down drinks. A rip off. Plus, we heard from our exterminator friend that their kitchen has a bad cockroach problem. You've been warned!

I'll play first and eat later. Come back perfectly on time and what do I see? Couple that was still in the line when I made my reservation before them - was getting seated. And we had to wait another 10 minutes for the next table. After that it takes 19 minutes, yes I timed it, before server shows up at our table for the first time. I would have expected appetizers to be served at that duration. Later, I timed same thing for the neighboring table, still 14 minutes. I understand about being understaffed and overbooked. But in this case manager was present at the front and had not 2 but 3 greeter girls available. Why one or 2 of them did not convert to wait stuff? R just close half the tables. But no, we will keep running with a reduced service available. Guess what do I see next? Another busy server working exactly half the tables in my proximity who refuses to even stop by for a second. Nope, they each have their own tables and do not share tips - so he has absolutely no interest in helping those that are half a step away. And this is my favorite moment of the visit. By the 19 minute mark we both had made complete food decisions and were ready to go for beef Wellington. However, we learned from another visitor that dish is not cooked to order, but it's a conveyor. You might get that perfect serving or you might get completely cold undercooked meal that waited 30 minutes for you. Just get a steak, and order a custom readiness level: this way one will have to be next to it most of the cooking time. So, we get couple burgers with truffle fries and calamari. I'm looking for the menu section for English ale, and the only choice is Guinness. This is the moment where we should have left, but there would be not enough time to eat somewhere else decent. Calamari is ok, only ok. I was expecting something much better. I can easily take you to 3 places in central NJ that will give you best calamari of your life. Drinks came after app. So, even bartender is busy???? The truffle fries is the only start I'm giving this place in my review. But I guess that they come pre-seasoned in a frozen package, so it's hard to mess them up. Burger had a really good idea of combining pulled meat with your typical hamburger, and it would have been great it patty was cooked to order. I think mine was seating in a warm drawer for ages and then microwaved. Just good enough to eat. Overall this is the worst Gordon experience I've had, hint: try fish and chips place in Vegas. I will not be coming back even if some else is paying. Gordon, I would love to make you the best burger I can at home, then serve you some of the best ale and scotch money can get, and then we can drive to AC and shake up this place. PS. Manager was made aware of all troubles we had and yet did not made any attempt to play bullet out of you-know-what by offering round of drinks or cutting the bill in half. PPS. I run out of Guinness and server was never around to order a replacement. This alone cuts the tip in half in my books.

American Bar and Grille, Borgata Hotel, 1 Borgata Way, Atlantic City, NJ 08401…read moreWe were celebrating my birthday in AC. Right inside connected to the Borgata Casino. We got there for our 615pm reservations and even though the place was packed, we were seated right away. Our server Paola was friendly and energetic. We almost didn't have a good experience eating here until we explained our dietary needs and Paola helped us with the right menu items. :) I would recommend the Pei Mussels - Frites $19.00 with Garlic white wine, butter beans, fries, béarnaise, the sourdough crusted Italian bread loaf and the Apple Cider Glazed Salmon $38.00 with Smoked shallots, shishito peppers. Some of the classic specialties. I then received a birthday song with a candle in my Mango Sorbet with added blueberries. If I'm in AC again, I would go back to get the mussels and salmon dishes again :)

Think 70s bar energy, cushioned bar stools, retro TVs, the whole thing. It felt like stepping into a different era in the best way possible. We started with drinks and they did not disappoint. The $7 mini martinis are a steal, we got the dirty with blue cheese olives and The Garrison 17 which is alibi gin, herb infused vanilla and rhubarb shrub, egg white and lemon. Both were made right in front of us which was a nice touch, and they were genuinely well crafted, not just cheap happy hour drinks. Food is where it really shined though. The whipped ricotta was unreal, we got both the EVOO with Maldon sea salt and the fig, hot honey and hazelnut. The EVOO one especially was one of those things you keep going back to. For pasta we hit the Bucatini Cacio e Pepe, the Crab Orecchiette with chili shrimp and basil, and the Spicy Vodka Rigatoni with calabrian chili. The cacio e pepe stole the show honestly, simple but executed perfectly. Everything was half off which makes it even more ridiculous value. Service was fun and easy going, matched the whole vibe of the place perfectly. This one is going in the regular rotation next time we're in AC.
