50 Best Italian Restaurants near Longport

“This place is such a VIBE....The food was phenomenal, we had the watermelon salad (oh my lord, the flavor in this was outstanding, so glad I tried it), the lobster gnocchi, and the lobster, shrimp and scallop Fra Diavolo - both excellent dishes! The complimentary bread and olive oil plate that came out before our meals was also exceptional, full of spices and flavor. We booked on Resy and were seated immediately upon arrival. The food came out quickly and the service was excellent as well. Our waitress was excellent and very attentive, and the manager and chef came to our table during our dinner to check in. The additional staff that refilled our water and cleared our plates were also very friendly. The atmosphere is upscale and the view of the marina is spectacular. Well done LaBarca we'll be back soon !!“

“National Pizza Night! Andrea pizza was awesome as was the Tricolre Salad as a starter. Last visit @ Pulia the Frito Misto and Carbonara were delicious. Hidden gem in Ventnor, NJ.“

“We had dinner at Chef Vola’s on 9/17/25 to celebrate my Birthday. What an excellent dinner and experience. The service is wonderful and our head waiter Anthony is a great guy who provides the best service. The food is beyond comparing it to another restaurant. My wife had the salmon with special sauces that she said was the best she ever had. The bone in veal parmigiana was the best I have ever had by far and there is no comparison. We had the blush pasta which also was outstanding. Our sincere gratitude to the Chef Vola staff for making my birthday extra special.“

“You have to try this restaurant! Absolutely best in area. Everything we had was outstanding .

“Our waiter Bill was amazing, we told him we were going to a concert and he made sure that our food was paid appropriately so that we could make it on time. He suggested the Bronzini and it was outstanding. The Broccoli Rabe that came with it was a little on the dry side but the fish was fresh and sauce amazing. My daughter had Gnocchi and that was delish as well. Thank you Bill for a lovely evening, make sure to ask for him!“

“last Saturday night we had another delicious meal with friends, Cordivaris never disappoints!“

“Best vegetable pizza ever!“

“This Place was the best place I ever went to in Atlantic City outside the casino areas. What a vibe. It makes you not want to get out of your seat. Reminds you of your Sunday family dinners with an explanation point. So much fun and attention to making sure you come back. New owners are from South Philly and are a blast to be around. The food, well is probably the best i ever had with my party of 6. Great place for food, entertainment and cocktails. You can stay and have a blast all night. They are expanding into a bigger area right next door!! Up and coming this is a must go to“

“The food!!!!! Great bartenders and did I say, the food? Sooooooo delish!“

“This was an excellent dining experience for the most part! The service was great and the food was great. We had just returned from Italy and were reminiscing with some friends about the food and how it compared to the freshness of the meals at Sunday gravy. But toward the end of the meal you could tell we were being rushed… and then the hostess confirmed that our bill was paid and then actually asked us to leave 😳. Because she had tables waiting. How embarrassing and disappointing. No where on the online reservation did it say we had a time limit.“

“The food 🥘 was excellent including Ben and Jerry’s ice cream you ordered breakfast from 7:00am through 12:00pm Monday through Sunday.“

“The food was fabulous and delicious! The cake was splendid and we had two selections both were amazing! The wait staff were extremely attentive and generous with their attention to detail and kept the small details well organized. I loved the atmosphere and the seafood was so tender and had excellent flavor especially the browned scallops! Thank you to Jose and Kit! You made our night most enjoyable!“

“Lovely atmosphere, amazing food. Servers were very friendly and acknowledgable. Definitely a must try when in Atlantic City“

“Sat outside we had your pizza. It was absolutely delicious, crunchy and crusty and mouthwatering so refreshing.“

“The place is under new ownership!!!!“

“Needs a better location but go support these guys!!! Food is top notch!“

“Ah, first time here tonight. Incredible service, literally insane food, booming with flavor. Our server Nora was the sweetest. If you’re in town you won’t have regrets! 12/10!“

“Nice restaurant located in the Claridge Hotel. Very reasonable prices for A.C. Boardwalk area. We had a lovely ocean view table, and since it is located on the sixth floor, overlooking Park Place, we could watch the ocean waves vey clearly. Good food, nice Italian cuisine on the dinner menu, but as a hotel convenience they also serve a complete breakfast and lunch menu daily. For something different from the usual pasta, try the black rice risotto - so good! Very enjoyable meal, pleasant and attentive staff, and the chef greeted customers during the visit.“

“Our party of three had delicious cheeseburgers 🍔 and fries for lunch watching the Eagles beat Detroit!! We’ve been here many times and always a good time.“

“best food in town“

“Highly recommend the gnocchi, pizza, and figtini! We ate dinner here with 5 people. Service was slower but I expect that at a good restaurant where everything is made to order. It is worth the wait! We loved it so much we came back 2 nights later and sat at the bar for pizza and drinks.“

“Came across this place while driving through Margate. Ordered the Seafood Pescatore. They give you a massive amount of clams calamari, mussels and crabmeat on a small bed of linguine. More seafood than pasta. Definitely worth the $29 I paid for the dish. I had a side of chicken pastina soup. Soup was very good and the pastina was al dente which is very difficult to do. The service was fast and efficient and the restaurant itself was clean and so was the restroom.“

“Great food & service! I got the bow tie pasta and it was incredible and my fiancé got the steak and said it was great. Staff was super friendly, however, there were these older drunk men at the bar (about 5 or 6 of them) and they were being so loud, cursing, and just carrying on and making a huge scene. I literally had to yell at my fiancé who was sitting RIGHT next to me. They ruined the whole vibe and experience. The staff did nothing to quiet them and they were just so freaking obnoxious!!“

“OMG there is nothing I have tried that I do not like. Last night I got a basic chicken sandwich I substituted the roll for a giant garlic knot because of my severe dairy intolerance and it was the best chicken sandwich I have ever had...EVER! My son had the vegan cheese steak stromboli and he loved it. I have tried some of the vegan things he has gotten and they are fantastic, you would never know your eating vegan! They are clean and friendly, food is great and they are great with all my questions about ingredients and substitutions due to my dietary issues.“

“I have to give a complement when its due.
I frequent this place a lot and I noticed over the last few months everything changed for the better. The service the staff the food the cleanliness just overall better.
I find out tonight they had a new manager this while time... I was sure to complement him and I wanted to complement him and the whole staff here. It's noticed and appreciated.
Owning a business its nice to hear a complement.“

“Decided to try it, in spite of some mixed reviews. We are so glad we did! The service was excellent, and the food was way better than we had hoped for! Appetizers, to main course, cocktails and dessert, were all fabulous. The ambience was quirky, and interesting, lots of things to grab your attention. So, do yourself a favor, and give it a try. We did, and we will be going back!!“

“My family and I had frequented La Fontana (Strathmere) for over 20 years. What drew us back for some time was the humbleness of fine Italian food mixed with genuinely kind and low keyed charismatic servers. There was unfortunately a shift in management. Our relationship with La Fontana changed. Our final dinner at La Fontana (Strathmere) ended with the general restaurant manager having an explosive fit directed toward two life long friends in their mid-80s.“

“Great food , best pizza around with fresh ingredients and high quality pizza sauce ! Rocco (owner ) is genuinely a great person !“

“Good place. Pizza slices are giant!! Location is great. People working were really nice. The pizza is just a good average slice of pizza. Not bad but not amazing. Perfect for filling up the tank after a long day on the beach or just cruising the board walk. We all enjoyed it a lot.“

“Bocca is really one of the best shore restaurants in NJ. Sure, it looks like a typical pub/tavern, but the quality of the food, at family friendly prices cannot be beat. Highly recommended.“

“We enjoyed our dinner and drinks at La Strada at the Shore. It was a cold, miserable rainy night outside in Atlantic City, but inside La Strada it was warm, welcoming and comforting. Our drinks, which started the evening, were excellent. Our server, Digna, was pleasant, personable and helpful. Our food was fantastic and well worth the price. We'll definitely be returning to La Strada“

“Delicious food is served at Cousin's Restaurant in Ocean City, NJ.“
