I wanted to take a moment to share how much I enjoyed my experience at LandShark Bar & Grill during…read moremy recent six-day stay in Atlantic City. First, the view is absolutely amazing. Being right near the ocean creates such a beautiful and relaxing atmosphere and makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. The food and service were so good that I actually visited three different times during my six-day stay, and each time I decided to try something different. On my first visit, I ordered the nachos along with the License to Chill Margarita. Both were delicious, and the margarita tasted so amazing that it became my drink of choice for every visit. On my second visit, I tried the Mahi Mahi Chicken, which was awesome. Once again, the food tasted fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. For my final visit, I ordered the baby back ribs, and they were outstanding. The ribs literally fell off the bone and practically melted in my mouth. They were easily one of the highlights of my meals during the trip. Just as importantly, the service was consistently excellent each time I visited. The combination of great service, fresh and delicious food, wonderful drinks, and that incredible ocean view made LandShark Bar & Grill one of my favorite dining experiences during my stay in Atlantic City. Thank you to the entire team for providing such an enjoyable and consistent experience. When a restaurant is good enough to bring someone back three times in six days, you're definitely doing something right.

I loved seeing the old girl again - probably had been ten years?…read more Im an Ocean City girl but how fun must it be for kids to grow up here with Lucy around! I really like Margate!

Not gonna lie, this was the main attraction and reason for my visit to the region. It was the one…read morething I wanted to see and made sure it was the last thing I saw on my way out of town. I have been obsessing over Lucy for a bit and needed to make a visit. Guess we can go over the history a bit. Built in 1882, this stands as the oldest roadside attraction in the country. Novelty architecture was used to model this building after Jumbo, the famous elephant from Barnum and Bailey's. Also, to note, Lucy is a boy. Lucy was first known as 'Elephant Bazaar' and used for real estate advertising. When Lucy changed hands around 1887, it went through changes of business type. 1902 brought the Lucy moniker. Through the 20th century Lucy served as a restaurant, business office, and tavern on the business side of things. Supposedly during prohibition the 'eyes' of Lucy would let patrons know if they were open or being raided. It also served as a way to get items into the building without detection. Lucy also served as a home for a time. You can see evidence of this when you visit. There are markings on the walls inside that would tell you they added a floor to add rooms. You can also look into an area that is one of the legs where they added a bathtub. Small, but pretty cool. In the 1960s Lucy started to fall into disrepair. Because of this Lucy was slated for demolition, but in 1970 they fought and saved the building. In fact, Lucy had to be moved from its original spot to its current spot. Then fundraising started to restore the building. Speed up to today. I stopped by on my way out of the area for my visit. I got here early and was worried that I might be ticketed or towed if I had stayed parked in the spots immediately in front of Lucy. I decided to park on the street, plenty of parking there without the threat of towing. Currently you have to visit a building across the street to purchase a ticket for admission and this is where the gift shop is. Tours of the inside happen roughly every 45 minutes starting at opening. You go up as a group and get a guided tour. Take it from me, a tour from a local is better than one you might get from part time employee that is a teenager. Our tour guide was amazing and gave us so much interesting information. They give you the details about the time it was a residence and the prohibition thing. Once you see the inside and get all the lowdown on it, you get to venture up to the howdah. This is the carriage portion of Lucy. From here you get some great views of the area. You see the beach and ocean, water tower with Lucy on it, and the condo building that necessitated the move of Lucy. You are basically walking on glass up here too. Although you cannot see through the glass. There is so much care in this building. They recently finished recladding the exterior of the building and plan to do more here in the coming months and years. Give Lucy a visit if you are in the area and explore and very unique building. With that, review 4,100!

Coming is very nostalgic as I used to come here alot a very long time ago and I was a lot younger…read more As much as I've been here it's mostly been to the boardwalk which is obviously a big attraction here. I've never really exploited the rest of the city so this review is mostly from the boardwalks perspective. Not a lot has changed since I remember and that's a good thing. Plenty to do right off the boardwalk and there are plenty of hotels as well. It's a long walk from end to end of the boardwalk but it's a nice to do on a nice day. There's a trolley too(you have to pay) that can take you up and down the boardwalk as well. Great place to visit anytime of the year.

Never been in New Jersey. My friend was turning 40 and we decided to go somewhere FUN to have some…read moregood time. We started looking for places online and we found ATLANTIC CITY "the little vegas" We were soo excited and looking forward to have a blast. -- The place is a ghost town, nothing looks like what u see in pictures or videos online, Atlactic city is soo far away from being little Vegas. -- There is nothing but old buildings and lot of them are closed, the streets are destroyed with potholes everywhere, I didn't even take one single picture for the memories because it was not a single thing that got out attention. Wele a la decided to drive an extra hour to Philadelphia looking for something to do and we ended up having a good time. How disappointed :(. Don't get fooled with what u see online. Worst time of my life.

The marker is in excellent condition and is located on the grounds of the Absecon Lighthouse. It reads, "From September 19 to 24 1910, about 45 years after the last shot of the Civil War was fired, the 44th National Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.) Encampment (convention) was held in Atlantic City. The G.A.R., a Union (Northern) Civil War veteran's organization, had in attendance over 18,000 of its 214,000 members arriving from across the nation, many still suffering from wounds inflicted decades before in the War Between the States. The days of the gathering were marked by parades, and meetings for the Encampment were held at Steel, Million Dollar, Steeplechase, and Young's Ocean piers. Among the notable Civil War veterans in attendance were Major General Daniel E. Sickles, Lt. General Nelson A. Miles, and Johnny Clem, the famous "Drummer Boy of Chickamauga."" "It was the only time in the 83-year history of the Grand Army of the Republic that a National Encampment was held in New Jersey." "Erected on September 25, 2010 to commemorate the 100th Anniversary." The marker was installed in 2010 by The City of Atlantic City Grand Army of the Republic Centennial Committee.
