Gilchrist Restaurant

We discovered this restaurant from a friend and we’ve been coming to the Tropicana for years. It’s located on the first floor in the Chelsea tower. They offer breakfast and lunch. We ordered a pork roll egg and cheese, a hungry man platter, a grilled cheese and a cheese steak sandwich, everything was very good. The service was excellent. The staff was very friendly and courteous. I would definitely recommend this place for lunch or breakfast.

Great spot for breakfast. I like the outdoor seating. The place is right on the water. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. These are some of the best pancakes I have ever had. Eggs, grits and bacon were also good. Great coffee as well. Very fair prices. I highly recommend for breakfast.

Good American breakfast place. Definitely very popular and has a bit of wait around brunch time. It has both indoor and outdoor seating. We were a group of 6 and had to wait 45 min to get a table. We ordered Italian omelette, breakfast combo #2, veggie omelette, banana walnut french toast and blueberry pancakes. The pancakes were amazing and unique. It's thin and fluffy which make the pancakes amazing. Definitely recommend getting the pancakes here. Rest of the food is what you expect for American breakfast. The service is super quick and the coffee was good. Plan ahead for the wait if you are going here.

My husband and I came here for breakfast as it came highly recommended. The food was good- I did not feel like it was anything special to be honest. Not the best breakfast I ever had- certainly not the worst. And the atmosphere is nice being next to the water. Our waitress was very attentive- this was also very early however, around 7:30 am, and the place was not crowded. I would come back.

Dog friendly! Gorgeous view of the boats. Delicious apple cinnamon pancakes. Incredible over stuffed Reuben sandwich. Varied breakfast and lunch menu. Nearby park, boat ride tours. Midweek we were seated immediately. Friendly waitresses.

There are a few locations in Atlantic City, but I like this one right on the water near the Atlantic City aquarium. Small little place, awesome views. Breakfast and lunch menu, reasonably priced and great size portions.

Gilchrist Restaurant really deserves a 6 star rating. Great service, great people, low prices, and just a beautiful view. What a wonderful way to end our trip to Atlantic City. It is a tremendous value. Our server was so kind, had the crab omelette special which was amazing! Wait was worth it, and a picturesque area to lounge while waiting. Sadly we sat next to someone who was obnoxiously Karening to the max, and the staff handled her appropriately. Will be back!

Great little place on the waterfront, only open for breakfast and lunch. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. I tried the shrimp Po-Boy, it was delicious. Prices were very reasonable, would definitely recommend.

Solid breakfast food
Pancakes are light but not light and fluffy
Home fries are good! Tastes like thick cut French fries

Service is good!

Charming & quaint! Absolutely loved and recommend! If you are a visitor & looking for an Atlantic City gem... This is the place! Our visit was on a Saturday just around the 11AM hour... Our wait was about 20 minutes! Family owned! The staff (all ladies) were courteous & friendly! Food specials (Banana& walnuts French toast) divine! Enjoy!
