    Overall, it was a nice experience. I've never been here before and chose to make a reservation on a whim. It's very close to the Cape May waterfront and I could nearly see the ocean from my table. They catered to my desire for a mocktail instead of alcohol and it was lovely. The cranberry apple salad was very good, maybe a tad overdressed and the chocolate ice cream hit the spot. My entree though, for the cost, wasn't quite a hit with me; it wasn't bad but didn't "hit the spot" so to speak. I'd go again, because it wasn't a bad experience and maybe it was just a one off (or the meal just wasn't what I wanted). You will have to pay for parking, but it's worth a try.

    Madi was an excellent server, and the bus lady was very friendly as well. However, the reception staff seemed a bit standoffish. Food was good and view was perfect!!

    Overall, it's not the best place during the off-season. Everything was just ok. It's probably much nicer during the summer with the atmosphere and location.

    We had a beautiful dinner here! Service was great and food was even better. We had the artichoke dip for an appetizer and for our entrees we had the short ribs. Both delicious! Would definitely come back!

    Service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly, informative and attentive. The food was very good. Wife had salmon, I had scallops. They were tasty although two had some pieces of shells. I guess you can’t always get 100% of the shells, kind like with crabs. But they were good. Tasty and tender, not chewy.
