Best Atlantic City Diamond Celebration Dinner Locations

After getting our status match on in Atlantic City and walking away with some cold hard cash we were pretty hungry.  We decided to use out Caesars Rewards $100 celebration dinner certificates in Atlantic City. We received these after doing the Wyndham to Caesars Rewards status match. I wanted to put together a list of the best Atlantic City diamond celebration dinner locations since I didn’t see any good info on the internet before our trip.  I did a similar diamond celebration dinner list for Las Vegas and people seemed to enjoy it. With the sale of Bally’s since I did this list, and the addition of Tropicana, there should be some changes.

The rankings are based on TripAdvisor rankings. I have attached a full list of current restaurants at the bottom too.

Top 5 Atlantic City Diamond Celebration Dinner Locations

Without further ado here are the rankings:

Warning: Days and hours of operations may vary widely by restaurant because of the pandemic.

5. Coastal Cafe Kitchen Bar

Starting off the list is a newcomer Coastal Cafe Kitchen Bar. It comes in ranked #60 overall on TripAdvisor. It looks to be a comfort food, diner type of place.

4. KWI Noodle House 

Coming in the 4th spot is KWI Noodle House.  It is the 48th ranked restaurant in Atlantic City per TripAdvisor. KWI is an Asian inspired restaurant that has a lot more than just noodle dishes.  They offer fish, beef, duck, chicken and other proteins in addition to the traditional noodle dishes. KWI is located inside of Caesar’s.

3. IL Verdi

Il Verdi is a new comer to the list as well and is the only option from Tropicana. It looks like a higher end Italian restaurant.  It is the 40th best rated restaurant in Atlantic City according to Trip Advisor.

2. Nero’s Italian Steakhouse

Coming in once again as the 2nd highest ranked restaurant in Atlantic City is Nero’s Italian Steakhouse.  Nero’s is also located inside of Caesar’s Atlantic City.  This was another contender for us since there is a Nero’s Italian Steakhouse at Caesar’s Windsor that we have gone to often.  That Nero’s has some of the best lobster tail I have ever had and I was curious to see how this location compared.  We decided to pass because the prices were substantially higher than it’s Windsor counterpart and that is before taking in the currency adjustment into account.

1. Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill

I am surprised to see Gordon Ramsay’s pub rated ahead of his steakhouse in Atlantic City. His Pub & Grill is located inside of Caesar’s and is right on the casino floor. This was the third highest rated on the list last time I did it but it has improved its rankings.  We had planned on checking out this location our second night before pivoting and going to Philadelphia on night two instead. I have had his fish and chips in Las Vegas and they are some of the best I have ever had and I was looking forward to having them again.  Although they are double the price inside his restaurants versus getting them in his to go set up in Vegas.  The Pub in Atlantic City has your standard pub fare like wings, burgers and fish and chips of course!

Final Thoughts

If you have an upcoming trip to the Jersey Shore I hope that you found my Atlantic City Diamond celebration dinner rankings useful.  I don’t think Atlantic City packs quite the punch that Vegas does for redemptions but it does have some solid options.

If you are looking for a place to have a drink before or after your dinner be sure to check out the amazing Diamond Lounges.  That is where Atlantic City blows Las Vegas out of the water!

5 COMMENTS

  1. You are omitting a major caveat from your list, namely, that some of the Diamond restaurants are only open on weekends (e.g. Il Verdi) or only open for Breakfast/Lunch (e.g. Coastal Cafe, and only till 1 p.m.). Despite the limited weekday dinner choices, we were very happy with both KWI and Gordon Ramsay’s Pub and Grill. Anyone planning to redeem Diamond celebration awards should research each restaurant’s hours in advance of the trip.

  2. Having both sampled and asked groups of people with a TON of Atlantic City experience, the restaurants consistently mentioned don’t match your list.

    I have eaten at both Gordon Ramsey Pub and Gordon Ramsey Steak and I have to say that Gordon Ramsey Steak was an amazing dinner! The pub wasn’t that special

    The #1 recommendation I have gotten by far is Nero’s Brunch. I haven’t tried it yet, but it is overwhelmingly recommended the most.

    • My Only redemption of this dinner was indeed at Gordon Ramsey Steak and I LOVED it ! Luckily I can carry over 2020’s Dinner and I think I may spend it at Nero’s judging by all the recommendations ! I asked this question in another thread but “Does this benefit have to be used on casino grounds?”. Can it be used at a related restaurant like Ruth Christ’s somewhere in the city ? CURIOUS…
