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.

    We come to Smithville for Laura's service and friendliness. And Johnny is a man who serves and cleans up so efficiently, Smithville Inn is lucky and blessed to have both.

    We plan to go to the Inn every year. Once again our dinner was awesome. We both shared the shrimp cocktail appetizer which was delicious. We chose the prime rib which was huge, enough leftovers for two more meals. It was the best prime rib we both felt we have ever had. The service was great too. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. We will definitely return the next time we are in town.

    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.
