Wolfgang Puck decided to try something unique in his first Atlantic City offering...utilize local products and flavors for his dishes. With NJ being the garden state, you can expect a lot of vegetables. Sometimes though, when you're at a casino, you prefer something a little more exotic than zucchini. The dishes at Wolfgang Puck's American Grille are well-imagined, but tend to lack flavor in many cases. My advice would be to stay in the "tavern" section of the restaurant, with the wood oven pizzas and traditional items, instead of making reservations for the "fine dining" section.

The decor is very well done, it took me a few visits to see the faces in the red glass of the walls. The service is on par with a restaurant of this type. I just wish the food was up to the level of some of Wolfgang Puck's Vegas restaurants.
