    The food was wonderful, great tapas! Started out with avocado toast and my friend started with lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes, delicious! We then followed with the Chorizo burrito and the Monte Cristo, wow! Everything was fresh and wonderful! We’ll be back soon!

    Another great experience at Shamone. It was the first time for our friends and they enjoyed it. We hope to get back (with them) for the brunch.

    Firstly, let me say of all the restaurants I have been to in Cape May, this one is the most exciting. I first went when it was in the original location and the food was outstanding and I really liked the location and again, consistently, the wait staff were fab. I was very excited to return. A few comments, the restaurant is great at accomodating vegetarians so if you are one, be sure to call ahead! The food this time was just slightly below my memorable meal in the earlier location but still, heads and tails above anything I have had elsewhere in Cape May and the area. The waiter was fab and the pace of the meals was perfect. My one BIG criticism is the incredibly odd ambiance. I am not sure what the restaurant was striving to accomplish. This is a type of storefront set up (facing the beach area) but the windows are blackened, the music loud and when I was there, far too cold. It was just not warm and inviting and did not create as innovative environment as they do the food. That part would make it somewhat unlikely that I would be so keen to return...This is not a hard fix and hope they continue.

    A unique dining experience being served 14 small plates while enjoying music. All diners have the same server, this night it was Steven, who did an excellent job of explaining each dish. We thoroughly enjoyed this venue and will return soon.

    First time at Shamone for brunch. The food was very good and our server was very kind and attentive. As others have stated the music is very loud, we could barely hear the server when she was letting us know the quiche of the day. The blueberry lemon zest pancakes were our favorite!

    We liked our meals but a couple of dishes came out barely lukewarm. Service was great! Music was a bit too loud for easy conversation at brunch
