Gilchrist at Tropicana Atlantic City

The food was excellent. The service was so notch. It was kind of tricky to find it inside the Tropicana but everything inside the Tropicana is tricky to find but once we got here, we got a table right away and everything was delicious. I would definitely come here again.

I recently had breakfast at Gilchrist inside Tropicana Atlantic City, and overall, it was a pleasant but mixed experience. The restaurant itself is very charming—bright, inviting, and has that “cute, local café” vibe despite being right in the middle of a busy casino resort. It’s the kind of place where you feel comfortable settling in for a casual meal before heading out to enjoy the rest of the day. The staff were friendly and respectful throughout my visit, which helped make the experience feel warm and welcoming. Service was attentive enough without being overbearing, and the overall atmosphere was laid-back in a nice way. As for the food, it was decent but not without flaws. I ordered eggs, and while they weren’t made exactly the way I requested, the rest of the breakfast was fine.

We assumed there was a reason this place was lined up each time we’d pass, with people willing to sit at the counter instead of waiting for a table…their food is JUST THAT GOOD! The line moved quickly, service was excellent, food -delicious! Known for their blueberry pancakes, which are a unique cross between a crepe and a pancake, and are served with a generous portion of whipped butter, they didn’t disappoint. Like a little piece of heaven on the end of your fork! The Italian omelette came highly recommended; it was excellent. So so so cheesy, with sausage, onions and green peppers. Ordered the home fries well done; they were good, as was the rye toast. It’s a diner style restaurant, nothing fancy but the food and attentive service made for a great experience. Note: only open for breakfa

Best food hands down service is top notch. Very clean . Best prices in the area.
