This was a nice shore dining experience. The barmaid was very nice. A few diners having happy hour dinners at the bar.
Our party of 4 enjoyed shrimp stuffed with crab meat, smoked Gouda flatbread, salmon, a new seafood risotto, and eggplant parmigiana. Everything served on hot plates by attentive wait staff and appreciated the bread refill. They had a singer during dinner service. There was plenty of parking. I recommend this place.

Upon entering the owner Trish was so welcoming and sat us immediately not even 5 minutes waiting .. table bread was warm crunchy outside and soft inside with a seasoned olive oil dipping .. Appetizers were mussels marinara and crab gnocchi .. Wow is all me and the hubby kept saying when we tasted each plate of food , gnocchi was so soft and pillow fluffy and they are not skippy with the crab, mussels were fresh and not fishy , staff was on point refilling drinks and cleaning up the table. Our waiter was awesome ! Dinner was seafood risotto and chicken franchise again a home run . I cannot explain how great the food is you have to go and try this place. The owner even went out her way to thank us and say come back again 5 star dining guys

I came on a solo trip to wildwood and Dunginetti’s did not disappoint!
My mom is from Poland and she makes homemade pierogis, pastas, etc. and the crab gnocchi is the bomb! The pasta is made fresh and MELTS..MELTS…in your mouth. I also ate the Pork Chop (on the bone) and honestly, I am FULL! The portions, the ambiance, and even bartenders all amazing!
I highly recommend this establishment, 75 years later you perfect your craft.. one of the “old school” spots with full plates. And an extra bonus: live music when dining!

We have been going to Duffinetti's for about 3 years now and it's part of our vacation schedule to eat there atleast once! They have a dance floor and someone talented is always there performing live the hits of yesteryear and today! The owner is a sweetheart and she always greets us, comes over to see how we have been and how we are doing!

One of the best Italian restaurants we’ve ever been at we heard that this restaurant has been open almost 80 years we met the owner. She was delightful everyone there was so professional.!! Our favorite choices for dinner were the pork chop and also the brave short rib joined with the duck horn Merlot. A light full complementary salad followed with the delightful sweet vinaigrette for dessert. We had the homemade cheesecake served with the raspberry sauce, and also the homemade tiramisu… they even had some exotic after dinner, LeCours and coffees.. when we are in Cape May we always go to this restaurant we met the owner. Her name is Trish. She is so nice.

Our new favorite restaurant. Delicious food… our waiter James was attentive, friendly and sold us on the delicious specials. Well worth any wait…music during dinner was awesome. There is really no need to go anywhere else !!

Great classic Italian restaurant in Wildwood that is a local institution. The food is good and the service is flawless. A great dinner spot for a family or large party. I for one will be coming back the next time I’m in Wildwood.

Place is about as good as it gets. Im from north Jersey where Italian restaurants are a dime a dozen and I've been to them all. This place is as good if not better than most of them. Love the carbonara
Jeff Moyers
Really nice family owned Italian restaurant. Easily accommodated our party of six on a Friday night. Apps, salads and entrees were all terrific. Deserts were also great. They also had some live music playing which is a nice added touch. It was the best Italian food we had all week. Definitely going back next year....we went back again and it was just as good! Awesome cocktails, apps and salads. Entrees were all terrific.

This was just about the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to! Great food, excellent portion sizes, and incredible service. The soup, pasta fagioli, was smooth and almost creamy, and had a perfect amount of beans. The lasagna was cheesy, with a great meat blend. Given that I had the early bird special, I was surprised at how much food there was! Everything was incredible, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for high quality Italian food!

This place is fantastic. Absolutely wonderful food and decent atmosphere, although it's a bit loud with music and people. Table seating is a bit cramped due to the smaller interior space but the food is top notch. The prices are quite high, so be prepared to spend a lot of money. Although, you definitely get high quality, delicious food for the money. If you're in Wildwood and have cash to spare, definitely go here. It's a truly great place. We also met the owner, and she is simply lovely.

OMG! Came here with 9 people, we were sat within 10 minutes of a fully packed restaurant, and we didn’t even call ahead. The service was to die for and the food was heavenly, we did appetizers, entrees, desserts the whole thing and every single item was amazing, not to mention everything came out quick and correct. Truly and honestly I recommend this restaurant to you 1000% , please go!! The owner was the sweetest woman and was so so accommodating. Me and my family will most definitely be returning. Thank you Duffinetti’s for a wonderful time.

The dipping sauce served with a great bread was delicious. Enjoyed the seafood risotto. There was a live band playing, and I enjoyed the music, though it was a little loud. The band stopped by and asked if they were too loud and were kind enough to lower the volume. Many thanks to them and their thoughtfulness.
Jo Anna Larson
Had a great time. We sat at the bar and even though the place got hit with a rush we lacked for nothing. Excellent service, great atmosphere, very friendly vibe. We ate all of the food before I could photograph it. Highly recommend the Steamers from the appetizer offerings. We ended up eating 2 orders in addition to stuffed mushrooms, fried calamari, Caeser salad and lobster bisque. ❤ It was recommended by a local and they always know best!
Dante Terrigino
Wow! This was our first time eating here and won't be the last. I was so surprised by how great everything we ordered tasted. Duffinetti's is an exceptional restaurant. Best Clams Casino and the dishes were so filling. Our waiter James made us feel at home and walked us through the menu and daily specials to the perfect meal. We will definitely return every year we visit wildwood.
Vincent Rizzi
James was our waiter tonight and the service was fantastic. The food was the best Italian I have had in wildwood and I have been coming to this shore point for 15 years. The atmosphere here definitely feels like family. We loved it. The braised short ribs were out of this world. If you go make sure you ask for James. He made our night!
Can’t wait to come back!
George Capua
Food was EXCELLENT! I had the broiled seafood combo and Carol had the crab cakes. Both big platters. Service from Steve was also excellent!! WILL BE BACK OFTEN.

I took my family to duffinetti's last night to have dinner. It was one of the worst meals that I've experienced on this island in the past 30 years. Between the musty smell in the restaurant and the lack of knowledge from the staff, to the food that came out of the kitchen, starving people would not eat it. So, in my opinion,don't waste your time or money. Go to McDonald's, it's a better choice.
Mike Slovak
Awesome dinner at Dufinetti's! Great for kids and adults. Live entertainment was almost as good as the food. The lasagna is to die for! Everyone at the table had a great meal. Will definitely be back next year!
Donna Sunshine Bulger
Absolutely love Duffinetti's. I called to reserve and was bringing my service dog. Not only was he welcomed with open arms, he was given his own water dish and treated as family. Thank you to Trish the owner for the delicious food and the welcome of feeling right at home ��
Todd Lalor
Excellent food and service. We had the calamari, baby clams, lasagna, linguine w/ white clam sauce and lobster ravioli. All were great! Even the side salads and bread were above the standard at most restaurants.
Richard Carapucci
I gave it a 4*'s only because the food was good, BUT I give it 1* for the service, 1) sat there for almost 20 minutes before waitress came over 2) took drink order and waited almost 15 minutes to get to the table 3) never brought out bread until entrees came out 4) and the worst, a waiter knocked over my 3 month old granddaughter out of her car seat that was on their high chair to the floor!
Cherrie Bryant
Great food and the atmosphere was amazing. The staff was soooo nice. When I come back to Wildwood this restaurant will be my first stop.
Harry Duffy
