    Was looking forward to a long awaited reservation due to covid restrictions now lifted but was sad to get a not so great table near the kitchen. But then figured the service would be swift but saddened again to report one of the slowest and worst service in a casino restuarant ever experienced. Which is why food was nothing special since it was probably sitting to long in near by kitchen before being delivered. So for those price points, and not having a common overpriced wine on list in stock and sloppy not just slow service, never going back. Disappointing since American Cut and Amanda in same casino are my favorites. What happened to this place?

    We got a reservation last minute here, place is nice with nice views. Wait staff was helpful and friendly. We ordered bunch of starters and everyone (6 people) ordered different mains. I had a fish, I wasn’t a fan as it was a bit too dry for my liking. I think I liked the appetizers better. It made me happy they had blue cheese stuffed olives for the martinis!!!

    Overall food was okay here, not bad but didn’t wow me. The ambiance is nice and there’s a fancy vibe to it—also if you’re lucky you can get a table overlooking the water, if not, at least a partial view of the ocean. Service was fine. For the pasta dishes, tried the Linguini Alle Vongole (clam in white wine) and Bucatini Al Funghi (speck)—both reasonable portions but it seemed to lack flavor, as if the pasta didn’t soak up any of the sauce. Also tried the Seared Halibut—was not a fan of how the fish was seasoned or tasted, but the chickpeas were good. Aside from the ambiance and view, I’m not sure I would go out of my way to come back here.

    This restaurant was OUTSTANDING! The food is incredible and the service was top notch! We started with a tuna tartare and a caprese salad. Both were very well prepared and delicious! For dinner we had chicken parmesan, which was super crispy and delicious. Scallops wrapped in speck, which was outstanding. Branzino, which was well prepared and very good. And we had spaghetti with meatballs which was very good as well. The service was among the best in Atlantic City that we've ever experienced. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an upscale meal in Atlantic City.

    We did not had reservation so we had our meal at the bar, it was amazing. Especially with having Joseph for bar tender, we really enjoyed his friendliness, also he was very knowledgeable about menu items, when it comes to both food and drinks. Food was really tasty and prepared to perfection. Views are amazing, as let's face it almost anywhere in Oceans they are 😄 Both bar area as well as dining room have ocean views. We really enjoyed our time here and will be back.

    Seared octopus, lobster ravioli, the spaghetti pomodoro were brilliant. The tiramisu was melt in the mouth and the highlight of our dinner. The staff made us feel comfortable from getting us seated to the end of our meal.

    Delicious food and great service. They have many options and a large food menu with also a large wine menu. Their meatballs are 10/10 and full of flavor. The filet is also delicious and the glaze it comes with compliments it perfectly.the spinach & cheese raviolis with the butter wine sauce are amazing. Will definitely be back here to try out some more of their food and drinks.

    Very nice upscale restaurant. I rest enjoyed the 8 oz filet mignon, which came with perfectly cooked potatoes and asparagus. Though it was pretty pricy, it tasted terrific. The overall upscale environment and service also made this experience more pleasant. The staff and service was also excellent. If you are looking for a delicious exquisite meal, this is the place to go.

    Dolce Mare is great. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. They start every meal with some cheesy bread and butter spread. The bread has that slightly undercooked feel to it (in a good way, not actually undercooked). Very pliable and soft. I got the chicken parm. The dish was huge. The pasta is homemade and the parm was perfectly cooked. Bring your appetite because you can easily make two meals out of it. It was crispy, cheesy, and you could tell the pasta was fresh and homemade. Would definitely come back

    The pasta and seafood dishes are delicious. I don't think I have ever had a bad meal here. The service could be more attentive but overall, the family had a great time.

    The food is so good here and they have amazing bread! Took a star off because there was cardboard in one of the meals we ordered.

    This was the perfect place for a birthday dinner for this Pisces! Floor to ceiling windows overlooking the boardwalk and Atlantic Ocean, the only thing is I wish we had went to dinner a little earlier to see the beautiful sky that night! Service was great, portions were generous and food was amazing!!

    Food is not great. Really basic. Worst asparagus I ever had at a restaurant. Steak was ordered medium, received medium-well. Tuna Tartar was ok yet you can taste the cheap tuna. Waited 15min until server asked me if I want the menu.

    The food was delicious and brought out in a timely manner. I had the steak and was not disappointed at all. After dinner drink was a wonderful espresso martini! I will be visiting Linguini by the Sea when I'm back in AC.

    Wonderful dinner experience with a view. The service is impeccable, great espresso martini and wine list. All food was delicious, steak was over cooked and our waiter Louis quickly took care to correct. Chicken and veal parmesanand pasta were excellent.

    Delicious food and nice service! We got a wine recommendation from our server and it went perfectly with our meal. Our favorite dishes of the night were the charred octopus and fettuccine alla bolognese. One downside was a couple of oysters had debris in it which wasn’t pleasant. Otherwise, would go back!

    The worst place to go eat.. service is a nightmare. Our server was Kai who couldn’t remember anything but when asked if grilled chicken was an option he stated yes no problem. Waited over 2hours and no food on the table. We kindly asked what was the hold up his response was always no problem, but clearly there was. When I go to speak to the manager short bald man had no apologies about it. Then all of a sudden food comes to the table everything cold.. and they could have cared less because it was seven people and they were upset we were the second big part they had to wait on. At the end of it all my kids did not eat had to take them upstairs to the 24 hour cafe to eat breakfast sandwiches because it was now 10pm and no restaurants were taken us because of the hour. No birthday celebration just crying kids because they didn’t get to sing happy birthday in the restaurant because that was one of their highlights of the night. It was not our first time there either but definitely the last. They need to replace the entire staff everyone was rude and just walking back and fourth but not serving.
