A Modern Homage to French Gastronomy 
Redefining upscale dining on the Cape May Peninsula, Provence seduces diners with what can only be described as a beautifully choreographed synergy of food, flavors and techniques, plated with undeniable flair and whimsey. The French refer to such a gastronomical experience as "plaisir des lèvres et de l'âme" or "pleasure of the soul through one's lips"... classic, french, modern and quite simply euphoric. Set in a stunningly renovated 1854 historic mansion reminiscent of a french country chateau, diners are taken on a magical journey that indulges all one's senses. Join us for our multi course prix fixe tasting menu sensation and you are welcome to BYOB.

    The food at AC country club is the best hands down! Dom the chef can cook like no bodies business!!!! The staff is good but we did not like that they tried to put us in the other room where there's no atmosphere and they know us my husband is a member and we ALWAYS sit at the window which they had other ppl there... but the management staff that always took care of us are no longer there and that's a shame because Damingo and Ashley were 2 of the best! they did switch us and put us in the main dining room but not at window.. no matter what I would go back every week because I know for a fact I will LOVE my food cooked by Dominic!! Make reservations because it gets busy on the weekends!

    The service and the food are always excellent. We have been to Buona Vita several times and it never fails to be quality food with great flavors and a wide variety to choose from. It is loud inside once the restaurant has a lot of customers so be prepared for that--otherwise it is the best restaurant at the shore.

    I want to start this review with a shout out to Eli’s and his beautiful wife, Sous Chef and last but not least Jennifer (Server Extraordinaire) and the other support staff that made this evening a delight. The cuisine was spot on interns of quality of ingredients and skillful preparation. Extremely attentive service by Jennifer and her intern(stick with Jen kid), who was masterful in both service, chemistry and charm. I promise to return to finish that kiss ! 😘BYOB enables the diner to be extravagant with menu selections. A venue where you feel like family. Let yourself go and enjoy La Cucina Ristorante !!! Grazie Mille ❤️
