ok maybe one star is too harsh but we stopped in for lunch in the middle of a long drive. We actually did not stay for lunch. it was dark and scary and there was nobody anywhere to help us or show us to a table .... we made a reservation based on the great reviews but it sure did not look like we would have a good meal if we stayed.... had to move on sorry

This restaurant has to have some of the best fried chicken ever - crispy, yet very tender & moist! The mac & cheese & cornbread were also big hits & worth the drive to Pleasantville if you're not local to the area. The ambience is a nice laid back atmosphere & wait staff was super friendly & accommodating to my date & I. The restaurant is also a short drive from Atlantic City & very easy to find using GPS. With our dinner entree of fried chicken we also had cabbage which was delicious (but could have been hotter) & broccoli (which my date said could have used a bit more seasoning). Other than that, we had a fabulous experience here. We enjoyed our food here for dinner so much, we returned the next day for breakfast! My date had bacon, eggs & hashbrowns which he reported was very good; eggs were cooked to perfection. My choice was chicken & waffles which again has to be some of the best fried chicken I've had! I also had a side of hash browns which were cooked with onions & peppers - mmm! The chicken was delicious & the waffle (which came with a side of butter) was crispy to the bite, but soft on the inside. I would definitely order this again! Overall, Sam's Rialto will definitely be in our rotation of eateries when visiting Atlantic City! 🙂

Unbelievable chicken wings. The best I ever had. We sat in the bar this time and Dre was the bartender. He is the reason we ended up having dinner at the bar. Great guy. Great service. He is the best.
