The food was disappointing, especially the $48 crab cakes which were mostly filler. The vegetarian dish was not cooked and came out cold and had to go back. For the price, I would find another place to eat at Cape May.

Made a reservation a week before, called if we could have extra time to get to the restaurant since we were not staying there and our car was stuck behind the valet line. we were told "uh, no?" and that there was a line of people along with a very full reservation list for this place so my friend and I in our HEELS decided to ditch the car and run for our reservations at this VERY nice FINE dining place that was right on the ocean. welp, my friend and I made it 7 minutes after our reservations and found a slightly "up class" sports bar that was blasting "piano man" off key on the porch of a fish stinky hotel with people smoking on the yard by the firepits and NO ONE was even at the hostess desk and barely anyone inside and when we got there we were directed to the very back of the restaurant that had a weird half booth half broken chairs and NO VIEW of the ocean and when I asked if we could sit outside the hostess glared at me and said "We are first come first Serve!" which I didn't know from never coming to this restaurant. I had a bad feeling about this place and only ordered their French onion soup that they gave to me without a spoon and then I was sick the next morning so all in all DONT GO HERE!! We went to The Ebbitt Room, no ocean view but the food and staff were amazing and we were 10 minutes late and they DIDNT CARE. DONT. COME. TO. OCEAN. 7.

Food was ok, but grossly overpriced. Recognizing that this is the shore, and everything is more expensive, I was hoping for fresher food. The dinner rolls were stale; I ordered a salad with salmon, but the salmon was tough and not very well seasoned. The stuffed flounder was good, but the crab imperial was overly rich. Even the clam chowder was too thick, as if only bacon fat was used for thickening. The menu itself is very limited. The space itself is very loud - the noise bounces off the walls. If they had had the windows open, it would have been nicer and less noisy.

We had a great time! The food was delicious. Service was excellent. There was a large loud party there and all the employees were apologetic. It was not necessary to apologize. They were all working hard and very nice . Overall a great experience!

We were able to try this amazing place as part of Restaurant Week. Though we are local, we had never been there for dinner before but loved everything about it. Food, service and ambiance were all perfect. We will definitely be back!
