Peter Shields InnWonderful experienceMy husband and I celebrated our 10th anniversary in Cape May. We went to the Peter Shields Inn for their "Early Tasting Menu" and it was a wonderful experience. The staff was attentive and you could tell took pride in their restaurant, for good reason. The inn is gorgeous, across the street from the beach, and the food was delicious. Everything we ate, the roasted beet salad with ricotta, potato leek soup, hangar steak, Australian sea bass, and dessert was not only presented beautifully but tasted good as well. One thing, they don't have a liquor license so you can BYOB. Which, is better in fact.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat EveningJust a great place with great sevice and wonderful food. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a beautiful romantic ocean front experience.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMgem on north end cape maybeautiful setting, across from the ocean. they have porch seating as well as inside seating in an exquisite place.

I couldn't tell which was better, the food or the view, and both together--along with great company--made the evening wonderful.

Imaginative cuisine served in an historic upscale beachfront mansion. Be sure to book dinner on the porch for a truly magical evening.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMAn amazing experienceMy Mother's Day dining experience was truly amazing. Our server was very attentive and extremely knowledgable when it came to any questions we had. Every dish was perfectly executed and tasted delicious. I would defintely recommend dining at Peter Sheilds Inn to anyone. Each time I've dined there I've thoroughly enjoyed every aspect.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect Day!This year's Mothers day had to be a special one, as my Father had recentley passed away. So I took my Mom for a surprise lunch to a place she has always wanted to go - the beautiful Peter Shields Inn. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint! From the second you walk up to the front of the beautiful mansion overlooking the white sandy beaches and blue water, to the wonderful service and outstanding food, I have a feeling this restaurant will become a Mother's Day and any special occassion tradition. It was absolutely perfect. Also, close enough to the Washinton Street Mall for a little post lunch shopping.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMLoved it!We always love Peter Shields! We frequently visit for dinner, but on this occasion tried their Mother's Day brunch. It was fantastic! The food was exceptional (as always!), the service was great, and you can't beat the views of the ocean. We can't wait to return soon!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the best in Cape MayPeter Shield's never disappoints. The restaurant is beautiful, romantic, elegant, and the food is amazing. We have eaten all over Cape May, but truly find this restaurant to be one of the best, if not THE best.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary DinnerWe had a wonderful dinner at The Peter Shields Inn. It was our one year anniversary. We were married there last year. I had the lump crab salad and Salmon followed by the vanilla crème brule for dessert. My husband had scallops wrapped in bacon, beef duo, followed by the chocolate lava cake and vanilla bean ice cream. All was delicious. The inn offers beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean. Saturday evenings they have a piano player who plays light jazz/easy listening. It was a delight to listen to him play during our dinner. It was such a romantic end to our romantic weekend in Cape May.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely RestrauantBYO which we did not know upon arriving but they offer wine from the Cape May Winery.

Our 3rd trip in over the past year. We'll be back.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMOur experience at PSI wasOur experience at PSI was exceptional. Each course a delight. Two of us had the Cape May Salt Oysters. They were impressed with the size of them and said they were the best they'd ever had. My roasted beet salad was also nicely plated and tasty.
Three of us had the PSI “Duo of Beef” (Braised short ribs & hanger steak) with a truffle risotto. Everyone agreed that it was delicious.
My husband had the chef's 4 course special also enjoying each course presented. The Creme Brulle had the proper texture and taste.
We've been trying different restaurants when we come to Cape May and Peter Shields is by far my most favorite.4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a delicious dinnerWe had a delicious dinner while looking out at the ocean. The most comfortable restaurant in Cape May.4/8/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Peter Shields Inn is superb.The Peter Shields Inn is superb. Great service, beautiful view and excellent food. It has become our favorite Cape May restaurant.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place with filling meals.We went here for Easter brunch. Very slow service to start. Almost 10 minutes before we received our water and saw our waitress for the first time. I wanted to leave but was glad we stayed. The portions were very small but every course was amazing. Very gourmet. My deconstructed banana split was out of this world. I was shocked that we left there full. We will definitely eat there during our next visit to Cape May next month and every chance we get thereafter. The location is great as well. I look forward to being able to an after dinner walk on the beach during the summer.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful!We had a WONDERFUL time during PSI's Easter Brunch! Being that we are frequent visitors during their dinner hours we decided to try their brunch, and we were blown away! There was an eclectic menu to choose from, and all of the creativity and detail we appreciate from their dinner menu was reflected in their holiday menu. Our food was outstanding, the service was top notch, and the views of the ocean cannot be beat! We are so glad we tried their Easter Brunch, and are anxious to return for a dinner at PSI very soon!3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMPSI rules!PSI is one of our mainstays no matter what season. The menu is always creative and varied, the ambience is great and the service is uniformly outstanding. We had Chris who is a seasoned professional who always gives excellent advice and impeccable service. My wife had Scottish salmon, which she said was superb. I had the special, which was monkfish wrapped in bacon, as well as the salmon tartare sampler first. Everything was perfect. The cheese selections for dessert are a nice twist and add a nice dimension to PSI. The creme brûlée is also a big winner. You can't go wrong at the PSI!3/24/2013 12:00:00 AMAppetizers and dessert wereAppetizers and dessert were to die for.

Some restaurants have a great menu,but miss the mark with service and atmosphere making the experience fall short.PSI has seemed to make it their mission to provide one of the most memorable dining experiences you'll ever have(mission accomplished). The entire staff catered to our every need. The menu is clever and creative proving each selection is carefully planned. Outstanding food, first class service, an ocean breeze in the summer and the fireplaces in the winter have set the bar to a new level, well done!!3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMCape May NJ FindFood quality excellent.
