The original Tropicana Casino and Resort was located in the heart of Old Havana in Cuba and was the queen of Havana casinos. Some of the magic has been transported to Atlantic City--this casino has the town’s most slots, largest showroom, and only IMAX Theatre, plus the popular Boogie Nights club. And it’s good with kids.
●The Quarter
This
vibrantly colored, 3-story streetscape embraces an Old Havana atmosphere. It has a wide selection of restaurants and
bars, an array of entertainment and nightlife venues, chic shops, and a luxury
spa—but no gaming.
●Carmine’s
(609) 572-9300. L-D daily.
This is a branch of NYC’s well-known family-style Italian
restaurant.
●FIN
CLOSED D W-Sun.
This beautifully appointed seafood restaurant features an underwater
theme that includes glittery sea glass murals, and it also offers a dramatic
ocean view over the dunes. In addition
to a raw bar and sushi bar, you’ll find creative salads, entrees like fergola
Sarda (a Sardinian pasta similar to couscous) with fresh seafood, and desserts
such as cheesecake with colorful seasonal berries. Outdoor seating is available at above-street lamp
level.
●The Comedy Stop
This
small stand-up comedy club is rated by some as #1 on the East Coast.
