Angelos Fairmount Tavern is a Microwave Operation

by JoeRushlow

My girlfriend and I stopped by this well rated establishment for dinner the other evening on a trip to Atlantic City. We had planned to dine well so we ordered rock shrimp, crab linguini, and a meatball lasagna. We ordered house wine.

To be blunt, all of this food was horrible. The crab was from a can, the shrimp was a frozen specialty, and the meatball tasted a week old. The only thing decent was the salad.

Being that the kitchen staff was walking by our door, I asked a fellow in Spanish to tell me the truth - that the food was not prepared fresh. To our surprise, he said that all the food was prepared off-site in the morning. When a customer orders a meal, the food is heated in the microwave and served. Hence, Angelo's HAS NO OVEN!

We had asked for the waitress to heat up our bread - and she could not, saying that they no longer had the equipment. A RESTAURANT WITHOUT AN OVEN! The menu at Angelo's says "made fresh to order" This is a big scam and the food is horrible.

Save your money...Angelo's Fairmount Tavern is a Microwave Operation.

Avoid this place.

• Pros: Salad is decent
• Cons: Really Bad FOOD. Microwave Operation

Our favorite for lunch

by Jay22

We stopped for lunch about ten minutes before they stopped serving. We were treated courteously. The food was very good (we had daily specials, so did not order off the regular menu). The prices were very fair. It has free parking. Is it the best restaurant in A.C.? Probably not, but Angelo's Fairmount Tavern is now our favorite place for lunch in Atlantic City.

• Pros: Excellent pasta sauce
