Join us at our third George’s Place location in Cape May’s Washington Commons. Serving up the same menu you know and love from our original beachfront location, this convenient new breakfast, lunch, and dinner spot is the perfect place to grab a quick bite while shopping. We are BYOB and Cash Only. There is a $15 per person charge for breakfast/lunch and a $35 per person charge for dinner for a no-show on your reservations.


Where did the George's Place tradition get its start? In 2002, Yianni Karapanagiotis transformed what was once a quaint corner diner serving breakfast & window-service lunch into a local legend for Cape May locals and visitors alike. The cornerstone of the Kara Restaurant Group collection, George’s Place is now known worldwide thanks to a visit from Guy Fieri & Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, but remains committed to providing the community with fresh & flavorful food, plentiful portions, and fair prices throughout the year.

    Waited 30 minutes after being seated for our server to acknowledge we were even there. Same server helped the table next to ours after being seated after us without even looking over at us. When we finally complained then she was apologetic.

    My wife and I each had the Greek Picnic for dinner, which is an appetizer. The food was delicious and we couldn't finish it, so we took the leftovers home. The service was very good.

    We received a friendly greeting by a man who was also our server. We were not very hungry and did not order an appetizer. Large, tasty salad comes with your entree (Greek or Ceasar)-the Greek salad comes with a grape leaf but not much different than the Ceasar salad. We both ordered the lamb chops, which were very good. We noticed that there were also two other servers who talked to each other during our dinner while our server did most of the work.

    Our server was terrific but the food was mediocre at best. Greek salad was subpar. What respectable Greek restaurant uses grocery store Feta crumbles? My wife ordered crab cakes and they were mushy. She is used to my crab cakes, which I make with jumbo lump and fresh herbs. These were made with some sad, mushy blend. My mother in law had chicken souvlaki, which should be a slam dunk for a Greek restaurant, but they were some odd pressed cubes of dark meat chicken and not very flavorful. The lemon potatoes that came with them were bizarre - not roasted (apparently they are prepared in a fryer) and not lemony. My branzino was very good - by far the best of the 3 entrees. We will not be back for dinner. I am baffled regarding the hype associated with this place.

    Some dishes are better than others Hummus appetizer is great with fresh pita bread. Salad was smaller than years past which is ok. Crab cakes were very good. Shrimp dish needs to be served with some kind of rice or in a bowl. Lots of liquid in a flat cast iron platter. Also a spoon to help with the liquid. Cash only. Open Table reservation. Enjoy!

    We have been to George’s several times and always enjoyed it. We took friends last night. The service was great. The salads delicious as always. However some of the entries were not up to par. My husband had the chicken Santorini- it was bland- over cooked and I think ingredients were left out. I had the crab cakes which I’ve had before- they too weren’t up to par. They were dry and bland and the aioli tasted like plan mayo.

    Great appetizers however with my gluten allergy I could not enjoy it all cause over pita but hubby and kids loved them. The greek salad was good, nice size and a lot of lamb meat but the dressing was not quite Greek. Overall very good and nice ambiance. Parking available was a plus.

    We enjoy George’s for dinner frequently. It’s nice to get a fresh Greek salad included with the entree. Favorites are the crab cakes and grilled salmon. The falafel appetizer is awesome and don’t forget to ask for the lemon potatos.

    We have eaten at George's on Beach Avenue for years and were never disappointed. This was our first visit to George's Place on Ocean (near the Acme) and we were very disappointed. My Grilled Cheese Sandwich was not grilled and had 2 pieces of hard cheese on the bread with bacon and a tomato. My wife's turkey & brie sandwich was also not grilled. The waiter was very accommodating and took the food back to be grilled and properly made

    George’s is a neighborhood gem! Had the hummus platter app and it comes with four types of hummus and pita. All delicious. What we like about dining at George’s is the great value, very healthy menu options and always leave feeling satisfied with the meal. Our favorites are the crab cakes and the salmon dinners with the Greek salad. All so good! Try the lemon potato wedges!
