BIRTHDAY DINNER! 8 of us experienced cafe 2825 together this Saturday night. We had a 7pm reservation and were seated right away. Everything was super delicious! We enjoyed table side Cesar salad, table side pasta heated in a cheese wheel, appetizers, entrees and desserts. Some highlights were the hot honey calamari, veal Parmesan Fra Diavlo bolognese, Halibut Orgenato (special) and more. If you have the chance to go for a special dinner, you should. AMAZING food and service!

We recently dined at Cafe 2825 as a group of four for a birthday dinner. Overall, it was a decent experience, though not quite what I expected given how difficult it is to secure a reservation and the level of hype surrounding the restaurant.
When I finally got through to make a reservation, I was a bit taken aback by how the conversation began. I was asked whether we were actually coming to dine or just planning to take photos and have drinks, with the concern being that servers wouldn’t make money on a Saturday night. While I understand the intention behind this, it felt like an unexpected first impression for a restaurant of this caliber.
We were seated in the patio area, which was lovely but became a bit noisy once the space filled up. Drinks were excellent and well made. The service throughout the evening was attentive and friendly.
The food, however, didn’t fully meet expectations for the price point. We ordered the tableside Caesar salad, and for a tableside Caesar at this level, I was surprised that anchovy paste was used instead of fresh anchovies. The flavor and presentation felt more rushed and less intentional than what I’ve experienced at other high-end restaurants, which made the experience feel more forgettable than special.
My main dish was the veal chop with Bolognese, which was generous in portion, but visually and flavor-wise felt fairly average for the price. The other meals at the table were enjoyable, but none felt memorable enough to justify the effort and anticipation of securing a reservation.
In the end, Cafe 2825 offers good service, drinks, and a pleasant atmosphere. However, for the cost and the difficulty of getting a reservation, I was hoping for a more standout dining experience.

Superb spot in AC! I’m originally from the north east but live down south now. On a recent trip home I was craving that authentic Sunday gravy dinner my grandmom used to make. This place nailed it and made my childhood memories a reality. The table side experiences are where it’s at. Fresh mozzarella and Cacio e Pepe is heaven. Main dishes were just perfection! Service is five star. I will be back! It’s hard to get into but worth the patience.

OMG ! If you’re lucky enough to get a seat in this restaurant you won’t be disappointed. Don’t skip on the table-side service. We had the fresh made mozzarella – yes it’s to die for. And we followed that up with q Locatelli cheese wheel table-side pasta service. Add in a Sunday gravy entree and life is good.

Absolutely amazing food. Table side mozzarella and cheese wheel are a must. Meatballs, shrimp appetizer and my entree the 9th Street chicken cutlet was outstanding. Espresso martini was disappointing, but overall 5 stars and can’t wait to go back!

We had dinner at Cafe 2825 and everything was amazing from start to finish. The service was top-notch—our server was friendly and helpful. The homemade mozzarella and tableside Caesar salad were delicious! They have a good wine list and some nice cocktails. The atmosphere of the restaurant is warm, and cozy, and has a real classic feel. It’s a small place, but that just adds to the charm. Overall, I would highly recommend Cafe 2825. If you’re in Atlantic City and want a great meal with great service, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be back.

Loved watching them make the mozzarella and truffle pasta. Service was phenomenal. The meal itself was enjoyable and well-prepared, though it didn’t quite stand out as exceptional.

I felt like I was back in time eating in Italy! This beautiful restaurant is a must go to! Make a reservation well in advance (leave a message on the machine and someone will call you back). Get at least one tableside service, it is worth it! We had the tableside Caesar salad (they make it in front of you). I ordered the lobster marinara for dinner. It was fabulous! This restaurant is a place you go to if you LOVE food. It is simply delicious! And the owners care. They will come out and check on you. The restaurant is small, so you MUST make a reservation. I did see a big group go to the back, so they can accommodate if you book in advance.
