A Shore Local Indulgent Experience: Jerry Longo’s Meatballs and Martinis

By Marc Berman

There’s been a lot of chatter in Atlantic City about Jerry Longo’s, Meatballs and Martinis and although there’s no shortage of Italian dining options in Atlantic City, I decided to try it. I was not disappointed!

Since it’s called “Meatballs and Martinis” I started with the “Old Neighborhood” Signature app, Meatball Salad: Their famous homemade meatball alongside a Longo salad, a scoop of Ricotta and a signature Martini “Blue Eyes”  Stoli Blueberry vodka, Giffard Blue Curaçao & lemon. They got my attention right away, the Meatball was absolutely delicioso and the salad perfectly dressed.

Entree time… I ordered the special of the night: Lump Crabmeat in a red sauce, it’s called “Gravy”, here over homemade spaghetti.

 My guest selected, the Chicken Parmigiana (a mainstay) Breaded cutlet, pomodoro, fresh mozzarella, basil, complemented with homemade spaghetti!

For dessert… Italian Donuts, stuffed with mascarpone and Nutella with a cappuccino, of course!

Everything was absolutely sensational and that includes the very accommodating, warm and friendly  staff. Thank you to our server Antonio and Managers Elena and Frankie.
