Great place for many reasons. Great food. I had a grill Gouda cheese with lobster on sourdough bread. My wife had a crab cake with aioli sauce. Both were unique, tasty and memorable. They were generous sizes with plenty to take home. Service was fast. We were quickly seated with a choice of where to sit. Water came without asking. Our order came quickly. Tori, our waitress, came many time to check on us. To top it off the manger, Alex, made his rounds to ensure all was going well. He also filled us in on the history of the place. Talking with Alex made us feel like family. Location was superb. We were sitting two feet away from the sand dunes looking out over the beach frontage of the Atlantic Ocean and the Delaware River. The building has open air doors which makes feel like you are sitting outside. That location has a sunken concrete ship from WWII in the water. As Alex explained as part of history this is a landmark that attracts many. We could the scores of birds on the partially submerged ship. Great place and we be back next time I visit Cape May!! read more

Drinks are yummy! Food was served cold. Ordered the lobster grilled cheese and the lobster was very dry.

The food and service is amazing! Max is a wonderful ambassador for this place. Typically a restaurant with an awesome location has mediocre food- not the Fish House The salmon was fantastic My son had the kids cheeseburger (double patty) and loved it! My other son had the garlic chili shrimp and said it's the best food and restaurant experience he's ever had in 9 years of coming to Cape May. I'm so happy about this new option away from town. My wife and I enjoyed margaritas and Hugo's Garden is a new summertime go-to drink. Thank you Max for your hospitality and service! I've been coming to sunset beach for almost 50 years and hope the fish house enjoys success longer than that Based on what they've done, I think they will. The ambiance and food and sunsets are spectacular and you can enjoy a drink and watch your kids play on the beach a few feet away Cheers to the Fish House! read more

Smaller restaurant but very accommodating and cozy with heat lamps for cooler days. The Black Bass sandwich was exceptional. Recommend the sauce on side since the fish sandwich itself was so delicious on the freshly toasted marble rye bread. All of us were impressed overall with our food and service. Beautiful Bay views! read more

The BEST place! We came here because of reviews and wasn't wrong! GREAT cocktails, very nice staff - Francesca making the best Hugo and Clear Diamond! Very tasty lobster roll and chicken avocado sandwich! Everything was very clean, new, good looking read more

we stopped at sunset beach after a hike at the lighthouse to check out what they did with the old snack bar. well, it's lovely! Fish House is a sweet, well appointed, all outdoor seating restaurant. They have one menu, with breakfast until 1 pm, and lunch all day until 9 pm. I forgot to take a photo of the menu - there is a daily special menu as well, plus beer, wine & drinks. I chose the lemon goat cheese salad and he chose the spicy flounder sandwich. Both were fresh and flavorful. The salad could have had a little more interest for $13, such as nuts, or a crostini alongside. The sandwich was just right, a cornmeal crusted flounder filet with cole slaw and a spicy remoulade on a brioche bun with fries. the view is absolutely beachy and the decor is upscale boutique beach house. try it! read more

Have been visiting Cape May for 30 years. It's such a beautiful place! I must say the Fish House is one of my favorites. Great ambiance, food and drinks. One of the few places you can get a glass of Albariño. Can't wait for some Rioja to also be on n the menu. The staff is amazing! read more

We were seated at the side over-looking Sunset Beach for lunch. The ambiance was perfect, our drinks were refreshing and the meal was delicious. We were served by a wonderful young woman who was friendly, attentive and had a great sense of humor. This place will do very well this summer and makes Sunset Beach and nice little destination in Cape May. read more

We finally made it to the fish house on Saturday for lunch. Wife and I both had Chicken with avocado sandwich and it was awesome . Service was perfect with watchful waitress and overall a great value for my money. A must visit with great views! read more

An incredible place to to dine for couples and family alike. Excellent food, service and ambiance.

I spent a week from Oct13-19 in Cape May with a group of 7 women. We ate at different restaurants every day and voted on our favorite at the end of our week. It was unanimous that the fish house was the best of all the meals and service! Best waiter, Max, was attentive, fun and professional! Everyone loved their food and bonus was the sunset! read more

We had a great experience for lunch! The staff was so helpful and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and the view was amazing. It's an open air restaurant, but even with all the heat, the shaded porch and breeze felt great. They were able to accommodate me with a grilled chicken sandwich on gluten free bread and offered a salad instead of fries with no upcharge. We'll definitely go back again! read more

Finally got a chance to experience this place and it DID NOT disappoint! From the friendly staff to the incredible food...it was fantastic. The atmosphere is stunning...perfect vibe for the amazing view!!! Highly recommend!! read more

Great outdoor seating and awesome ambiance. The breakfast menu was a bit boring but the dinner food is awesome!

We went for lunch, semi busy time. Luckily a table was open and we were sat right away. Even with it being busy the outside had quite a few seats. They also are good at moving folks in and out as we are we noticed people coming and going they have a nice area to wait and you get a view of the sunken ship and beach. So enough blah blah blah. We had Evan who was absolutely fabulous dealing with us my wife her sister and I got cheeseburger comes with fries great burger shoe string fries lots of them. Wife got crab cake sandwich came w fries and coleslaw I tried the coleslaw made a mental note get a side next time sister-in-law law had the goat cheese salad she loved it my wife had some and loved it too. We had the choco torte for dessert was pretty good but could have used some whipped cream or berries or berry sauce. It was great but not as good as rest of meal. Just to say it's beautiful setting the beach sunken cement ship. Great place we will be back. It was worth it. Wonderful experience recommend to all. read more

The restaurant being right on the water at sunset beach is the highlight of the restaurant. The menu items are very different. The appetizer we had was the smoked fish ( usually you think of white fish smoked).well when we were presented with soggy tuna which appeared to be straight out of a Starkist can and did not taste like it was smoked there was no need to order anything more. The wait time to be served our simple drink order was very long and being that it was not that crowded makes me not want to return again. The drink too was not very good either. I had high hopes it would be much better as it is a prime location. read more

The lobster roll is a must. The buttered roll is the perfect vessel for this sandwich. The restaurant provides beautiful view of the ocean or a view of the kitchen at the bar. read more

Totally mismanaged system of seating people. Place should take reservations. Was told it was a 2 hour wait. The countdown app they use will tell you you have 0 minutes left for your wait time when in reality you have anywhere from 30min - 1 hour left. When I asked the host about it she said "oh yeah the app we use always does that it doesn't work" - cool, so you're underestimating the amount of wait time to customers by a lot and your app is broken and you don't care. Great recipe for making a lot of hangry people. Ruined Saturday night dinner - will never go back here. read more

My wife & I went down to Sunset Beach to do some shopping. We noticed The Fish House & decided to give it a try. The decor was cozy seaside & pleasant with light jazz music. The food was super. The scallops app was very tasty with the special sauce it was served with. All the food was high quality and well prepared. The Grilled Swordfish was outstanding. Sooo fresh & tasty. They have a nice variety of cocktails & decent selection of beers. The staff was friendly & attentive. The Fish House has now become one of our go to eateries in Cape May! read more

Great service, food was very good. You can't beat the view of sunset beach. Parking may seem problematic if it is your first time, but there is plenty of parking if you turn at the mini golf. read more

Besides the ambience of being at the beach and the food being good it felt like the service people were all over the place. I was in a party of two and they didn't tell us we would be sitting in at the narrow table with no room to eat. Better communication with the staff would have been great in terms of seating. Also reservations would help a lot with this place. read more

Starters were pretty tasty. Cocktails were not great, bar service very slow. They were out of multiple wines and drinks we tried to order. Wine service at table was nonexistent. Previously opened bottle was just dropped on table. Entrees were a good portion for the price. Desserts were definitely a miss, do not recommend. Chocolate torte was inedible, key lime pie was overly tart and served without whipped cream, ice cream was incredibly freezer burnt. Server was friendly, but not very present at table, even though we sat after 8pm and restaurant was emptying out. read more

This place should be called the sandwich house. It had very limited menu of seafood. Everything was ridiculously expensive. I guess it's all about the vibe and the view not for me. read more

Lovely spot on Sunset beach! Cute decor, great view, excellent food, good service. I loved the flower boxes! The hamburger was fantastic. The chicken sandwich was also delish but very messy to eat. I recommend utensils. They do not take reservations and it is open air. The day we were there it was quite chilly and a little uncomfortable. If they have heat lamps they probably should have been on. My guess is it's quite difficult to get into once summer hits! We will definitely be back on a warmer day or with more layers. read more

The Fish House has ambiance galore and is in a lovely location, but it's sad to see that the restaurant seems to lean on these advantages and fails abound in execution. Our recent meal there was a comedy of errors. There were multiple let downs in service, including our children's meals coming out nearly a half hour after the adult's meals. Multiple inquires were made into the whereabouts and timing of the food, but we were either brushed off, received a boilerplate apology, or briefly gaslit that those receiving their food around us were here before us (they weren't). The restaurants efforts to "make it right" were underwhelming - a 20% discount, which essentially just comped just one of the two very late meals. It's frustrating when the whole family can't enjoy food at the same time, all while multiple dogs around us were getting dog bowls of water served to them! The food was very disappointing too. The fries were cold, the crab cake sandwich and the lobster rolls were very small and not on par with other restaurants in the area and the strawberry ice cream was very freezer burnt and rife with ice crystals. All of the sodas were flat/devoid of carbonation. There just seemed to be so many execution errors to just chalk this up as a bad night. We wanted to love this place and make it a regular haunt, as Sunset Beach is so beautiful, but we won't be going back...to the restaurant, at least. Go to Sunset Beach. It's beautiful. read more

I was informed the wait would be about 20-25 mins for a table for 3 which was fine. After waiting not even 5 minutes, I received a text stating our table was ready. That short wait time made my pregnant self super happy. The view was absolutely breathtaking and the food was beyond incredible! I will definitely be making a return visit to this restaurant the next time I am in the area. read more

We were very pleased with our meal at the Fish House. The food and drinks were excellent and the service was impeccable. Ali was our waiter and he was extremely kind and attentive. When the outdoor seating area started to fill up he brought out a radio to add some enjoyable, soothing music to the atmosphere. The entire staff was so incredibly friendly. I wish every restaurant had service as excellent as Fish House. Thank you for the wonderful meal and great experience! read more

Late lunch on Good Friday. Had the Scallops appetizer and the Cauliflower Appetizer. Bothe were very good, not so crazy about the sauce under the Cauliflower. Ordered the Sea Bass Reuben, and the Crab Cake Sandwich. Both were a good portion, delicious and came with fries. Staff was very friendly. Negatives were that our entrees came very quickly after our appetizers and bartender didn't really pay attention to our drinks. A bit pricey, but food is above average and the view is amazing. read more

So yummy. Great place to eat, have cocktails and enjoy the sunset! Saw this place on tik tok and had to try it!! They quoted us a 45 minute wait but it was really only a 12 minute wait! Totally worth it! read more

Outstanding experience, cocktails, food & service. The " Best " lobster roll my wife & I've had since our trip to Portland, Maine .. & .. even then .. I'd go with THE FISH HOUSE lobster roll as the " Best ". The staff was very, very friendly & helpful. I will say,though, that the bartenders were extremely outgoing .. & .. their mixology skills were second to none. Try the azul Margherita; called a " Cadillac ". It was Excellent. All in all it was a wonderful experience .. & .. one we'll definitely go back to enjoy again. read more

It was our first time visiting Fish House since their opening. My husband and I loved the grille that used to be here, and would stop each time we were at Sunset beach in season. Although we did not have food this time around, the plates I did see on other patrons tables looked delicious. We only had drinks for our last vacation day. Staff was also friendly, and the bartender did a great job. I ordered the strawberry tea, and it came in a tall glass. Also, the ambience is wonderful. Who doesn't love a great view? read more
