Superfrico: Quirky
Fine Dining
Hidden behind a purple door inside Caesars Atlantic City, Superfrico invites diners to eat well while embracing their wild side.
Steampunk meets abstract meets pop art in this irreverent, turn-of-the-century-inspired restaurant. The waiter took time to explain every part of the menu, adding a personal twist to the specialty food offerings.
The name “Superfrico” refers to the crispy cheese frico that accompanies the Detroit-style pizzas on the largely Italian menu with a twist. One standout was the OG pizza, which was savory and punchy. The frico within the crust added a mouthwatering layer of flavor to the dish.
Before entrées were served, the iconic tableside mozzarella stole the spotlight. A member of the staff mixed and stretched the cheese in front of us, even attempting a few tricks. The mozzarella was moist and spongy with a jaw-dropping stretch. Served with flaky salt, basil syrup and heavenly garlic monkey bread, it was an indulgent start to the meal.
The shrimp scampi resembled pho, served as a hearty soup. The shrimp were fresh and the noodles were perfectly al dente. Spicy notes cut through the rich broth, leaving me licking my lips after every bite.
