Taking place throughout March 2026, this month-long celebration of food and flavour showcases the best of Atlantic City and Atlantic County’s vibrant dining scene. Formerly known as Atlantic City Restaurant Week, Taste Atlantic City expands the concept from just seven days into a full month of feasting. The idea? To highlight the sheer diversity and creativity of the region’s restaurants, from relaxed eateries to upscale dining rooms, with specially crafted prix-fixe menus that offer excellent value while sampling standout dishes from some of the area’s top culinary talents.
Atlantic City might be best known for its boardwalk and casinos, but Taste Atlantic City shines a spotlight on a different side of the destination: its thriving and varied food scene. From waterfront seafood joints to contemporary dining rooms, this event offers a great way to sample the breadth of what the city has to offer in one delicious month.
During March, participating venues across Atlantic City will offer tiered set menus that make it easy to explore new eateries or enjoy old favourites without breaking the bank. Lunch menus are typically priced at around $20 and $30, while dinner options sit at roughly $45 and $60, all designed to give diners a curated taste of local cuisine. Whether you’re craving fresh seafood straight from the coast, global fusion flavours or classic comfort food, there’s something on offer for every palate. With more than 60 restaurants taking part, this event turns the whole destination into one big culinary playground.
Taste Atlantic City kicks off with a special tasting night, traditionally held in late February. This launch party brings together bites from participating restaurants alongside local breweries, wineries and distilleries, giving visitors a flavour preview of what’s on offer throughout the month. Past events have also incorporated charitable elements, with proceeds benefiting local food programmes.
