Twelve of us went to Ryfe for a 35th birthday. We made reservations on open table for a Friday night at 730. The staff had the lounge area ready for us. The ambiance, staff and food was amazing. My entire party will be returning to RYFE.
Great food, friendly host, staff, and waitress. Chef who is also owner came out with my birthday cake and was very nice. Drinks were great. Unfortunately TVs were not working where we were sitting and we wanted to watch all star weekend stuff with our meal. Overall very nice experience and amazing food.

We were there in January and had a great experience. This time we walked in and no one acknowledged us for 5 minutes. Our waitress seemed a little confused. My steak was not cooked the way I ordered but I didn't want to go through the hassle of sending it back. It sucks when you have a good experience and go back and not so good. Thank you

Cute place with large bar and separate dining room and free parking. The food was good but the service was poor. Newer waitress who didn't know the menu or drinks and it took 45 minutes to get our cocktails. Hopefully it was an off night but she kept forgetting what we ordered and asked us repeatedly instead of writing it down. It became a comedy of mixed up orders. We were told the bartender was ‘slammed' but there were only a few people sitting at the bar and the restaurant wasn't very busy.

For starters we had the seafood bisque soup and Salad wedge. The soup was very good and not too creamy. The wedge was a big portion and very good. For the entree I had the Rib eye with garlic potatoes and broccoli which was very good.

I was very excited to try this restaurant based on the glowing reviews on line. Despite the restaurant being almost empty on a Saturday evening, it took a very long time to get our drinks. Apparently they don't know how to make martinis because my boyfriend sent his back twice. They were nice enough not to charge us for the drinks. Although they advertise a 14 ounce lobster tail, what arrived on the plate were two small tails instead. We had to ask for melted butter. There are so many choices for a great dinner in AC that we won't be going back again.
Food was excellent. Ordered from Happy hour Menu and enjoyed all options selected. Head chef Mervin came out and spoke to customers. He was very personable and gracious. He did not seemed hurried and able to manage things smoothly. Becca our server was also very pleasant and very attentive. Definitely will be back again!

I've been dining here every time I'm in AC which is often. Never disappoints. Insider tip; get the calamari grilled appetizer and the seafood bisque and lobster tail entree. Complete goodness!

Simply wonderful meal at Ryfe! Stopped in after a long and quite successful day of gambling and was greeted by the head chef who was out mingling with the guests. Super nice fellow who was very eager to speak and hear from everyone. We ordered the signature quarantini which was a cucumberish martini. Very good. For appetizers we had the shrimp and the cauliflower. Both amazing. My entree took a while but was worth it as the pork chop was HUGE and cooked perfectly. My partners entree was a scallop dish on pearled pasta of some type. I didn't want to try it but she forced me and I'm glad she did. This was so good, not better than my chop but different and really fantastic, Very unique. 5 stars for Ryfe!
Our server Jeannie was SO great. We were a large party. It was the middle of an Eagles game, so there was drunken shouting coming from the bar. Food was surprisingly good. Thanks to Jeannie we all had a great time. Definitely recommend. Prices were very fair by today's standards.
A bit off the main strip but worth the Uber trip here. I had the Chelsea Fries which were off-the-hook! Also had a bowl of their seafood bisque which should be called a bis-chow because it's half bisque and half chowder. really, really good. two thumbs up!

Great location, out of the way, and basically out of AC so you're safe! Place feels cozy and comfortable. Food was great, service outstanding . Be sure to ask to meet the chef, Marvin!

Sleeper of a restaurant in the AC area. They were celebrating being chosen #1 restaurant in Atlantic City which is saying something given how many top notch places are located in the area. Food was delicious without pretentiousness some places create. Service was casual but super effective. Just a really cool place to eat and hang out.

Friendly fast service, great food. When you go out for a meal.... its way more than just the food. Cool atmosphere, super happy server, good food and drink.... what else is there? We will be back to check out more of the menu. Way too many interesting items that sound delicious.
