Old world charm meets new world hospitality in this lovely lakeside landmark. A longtime locals favorite serving award winning classic continental cuisine with a modern flair. The restaurant, resurrected from an uncertain future in 1997 by the combined efforts of the Coppola & Bushar families, has since reclaimed its spot among the favorite dining locations in the Atlantic City area.

    The food was great, my family and I have a great time there. I love the Christmas ambience. The guy who was busting our table was great, all the time was taking care of us. The Thanksgiving Special Cocktail, Caramel Martini was delicious.

    Smithville has old world charm that is priceless. Can’t find this anywhere and it’s what makes this such a special place. Food is consistently good and never disappointed. Laura, our waitress, is a mixture of fun, charm and efficiency. She makes the dinning experience special and makes smithville a favorite. Front desk staff is always warm and friendly. Looking forward to some Holiday dinning !

    We had a lovely lunch yesterday. Started with the appetizers Brussel sprouts, fried tomatoes, and the special seafood dip. All were great. My husband had the pork chop and he loved it. I had the chicken pot pie and also loved it.
