Doma Cafe — Restaurant in Ventnor City

Newly opened in Ventnor, Doma is a small but inviting space. The restaurant is a true gem on Ventnor Avenue. The atmosphere is cozy and beautifully decorated. Outdoor seating will be available as the weather improves.

Nenad and Olga Gorgiev’s staff was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and thoughtful without being overbearing. The food was stellar! Each dish features unique recipes made with fresh ingredients. Our dinner was served quickly and piping hot. The presentation was perfect. My pictures don’t do it justice. The menu has a Mediterranean flair, and the flavors remind me of authentic European cuisine.

The calamari was light and airy, and the marinara sauce was delicious. I swear it was made in an air fryer, but it really has much more to do with their breading. I had the beet salad with Gorgonzola and it made my mouth water for more (by the time I thought to post a picture of it, I had already eaten half of it so there are no pictures of the salad). For dinner, I had pistachio crusted Bronzino, and I swear it was the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked with unique flavor that didn’t detract from the fish itself. My son had truffle papardelle with goat cheese. It was rich and creamy without being too heavy, and the taste of the truffle was present throughout each bite.

We finished with dessert. I had a rich and creamy chocolate lava cake, and my son the Dulce de Leche cake. He is allergic to all nuts so this was a great choice. All in all, it made for an excellent mother-son date night—one we look forward...

A Must-Try New Gem in Ventnor – DOMA Grand Opening Shines!

We had the pleasure of attending the grand opening of DOMA in Ventnor today, and it absolutely exceeded expectations. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting—modern, yet cozy.

The food? Simply outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. We started with the prosciutto roll, bacon-wrapped dates, and grilled octopus—all executed perfectly and a great showcase of DOMA’s attention to detail and fresh ingredients.

For dinner, we sampled a range of entrees: the pork chop, Branzino DOMA chicken, and Ahi tuna. Each one was cooked to perfection, with flavors that were well-balanced and thoughtful. The Branzino especially stood out—fresh, light, and packed with flavor.

Service was just as impressive—friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the entire evening.

DOMA is off to a fantastic start, and we’re excited to have such a high-quality dining experience right here in Ventnor. Highly recommend checking it out—you won’t be...

The food is great. The bacon wrapped dates are a must. The appetizers are generously portioned and the right price. All guests enjoyed their food, a mix of salads, pasta and chicken dishes. The pasta while good was not extraordinary and not necessarily worth the price. The staff was every attentive and accommodating and friendly which is refreshing. The reason for 4 stars is because the inside is very cramped and quiet. The air inside is very stale and we had to be asked to move outside. There is no shade on the one side so until the sun goes down it's not great ambiance. I belive it is byob and there is a liquor store on the same block so pick up some wine before you go.

I recommend this place just eat outside on the east facing patio and make reservations as...
