Smithville Inn

The Bushar and Coppola families have brought traditional cuisine back to the charming village of Smithville, and what truly sets the Smithville Inn apart from other nearby destinations is its warm, welcoming staff. Consistently ranked among Atlantic County’s top romantic spots, the Inn offers an idyllic lakeside setting perfect for a memorable dinner with your loved one. Your meal begins with fresh bread served alongside chive butter, cottage cheese, corn relish, and apple butter—a delightful and inviting start. Calamari lovers should definitely try it as an appetizer, and the French Onion Au Gratin Soup or hearty New England Corn Chowder are not to be missed. For your entrée, Chef Chris has preserved the beloved Smithville Inn Pot Pie recipe—if you’ve never had it, now’s the time. The Wasabi Crusted Tuna is another standout, bursting with unforgettable flavor. And when it comes to dessert, be sure to save room. The pastry chef crafts irresistible sweets, including a creamy, silky cheesecake with a caramel-layered crust—easily the best I’ve had in South Jersey—and the Coconut Almond Tart is another must-try. Whether you're planning a romantic date night or a special event, the Smithville Inn also stands as Atlantic County’s premier wedding destination, making every celebration truly unforgettable.
