OCEAN CASINO RESORT ANNOUNCES GRAND OPENING OF TWO NEW STARR RESTAURANT CONCEPTS

Chez Frites and Sunny’s Located on Ocean’s Lobby Level to Accept Reservations Beginning August 1 

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ ( June 4, 2025) – Ocean Casino Resort in partnership with STARR Restaurants and award-winning restaurateur Stephen Starr today announced two new restaurant concepts – Chez Frites and Sunny’s – adding to the resort’s stellar lineup of fine dining offerings. The French dinner spot and American breakfast and lunch bistro will be accepting reservations beginning August 1, 2025.

“American and French cuisines have always been two of my favorites, each offering its own unique sense of comfort, tradition and indulgence,” said Stephen Starr, Founder & CEO of STARR Restaurants. “Helping to shape these experiences with Chez Frites and Sunny’s in Atlantic City is especially exciting, and I can’t wait for guests to experience them at Ocean Casino Resort this summer.”

Chez Frites brings a stripped-down contemporary French flair to traditional steak and fries the likes of which Atlantic City has never seen. Located on Ocean’s Lobby Level across from The Park, Chez Frites features a lively bar area welcoming diners into a beautifully adorned eatery that includes seating for 150. With a truly unique prix fixe menu, guests will be treated to steak, salmon or lobster accompanied by salad and unlimited signature golden fries. Chez Frites is the perfect haven for foodies seeking refined yet approachable cuisine.

Next to Chez Frites is Ocean’s newest cozy breakfast and lunch concept, Sunny’s. Perched eleven stories above the Atlantic Ocean, this airy eatery offers sundrenched views and a serene ambience with both bar and table seating. Sunny’s robust menu is familiar and fun, offering an eclectic and diverse selection of American cuisine, reimagining classic comfort dishes with sophisticated twists using bold and fresh flavors. Beloved dishes such as the pigs in a blanket, Nutella French toast, lobster roll, classic meatloaf and more are sure to satisfy a wide range of palates.
