The problem is their menu is limited. Don't expect a master chef type meal. This is a no frills type of eatery who does it right! The service is simple, seat yourself, walk over to the counter, place your order and one of their very nice servers brings the food out to you. It's also byob so bring your favorite drink and enjoy a nice treat.

First, we were seated in the back where the wait station and door to kitchen was located and staff was just standing around. We asked to move to one of the empty booths and was told they were all for reservations coming in. They were able to move us to the back room. Server was nice and attentive and our food (just appetizers) were good. The issue we had was the overly aggressive bussers who kept trying to take our plates away even when it was apparent that we were not finished. This happened several times. We dislike when dirty dishes are left in front of us but this was over the top and intrusive. With so many options around town, we likely won't be back.

We loved it here and definitely would come back. We searched comprehensively for a special dinner…read moreexperience for our last night in Cape May, and initially we were taken aback because we could not get a reservation before 7pm on a pre-season Tuesday in May. So we went early (no problem being seated around 5:30 or so, but it did seem full an hour later) and were we ever rewarded. Everything was simply perfect, including Vicki, our veteran and down to earth waiter. When we are unsure of things, she provided expert guidance with kindness and wisdom. The mussels appetizer are an experience not to be missed - save the bread for lapping up its saucy juice. My wife loved the pork chop - its huge and she took half home for lunch. I devoured the blackened fish of the day over bok choy. Both simply were outstanding. If/when again in Cape May again, we'd certainly come back. With a reservation!

We felt the food at The Lobster House in Cape May, NJ was a very good value and the service we…read morereceived was very good. We would have had to pay at least 30% more for the same meal back home in Metro Atlanta, GA. We went at 5:30 pm on a Saturday and we were number 57 on the waiting list. We were seated in about 45 minutes. My wife and I each started with an escargot appetizer. I also had a bowl of snapper soup with Sherry. This was followed with a 3 lb steamed lobster. My wife had the Lobster House special which is linguine with lobster tail, scallops, and shrimp. Each entree comes with a salad and at least 1 side. I had a baked potato and stewed tomatos. My wife had a zucchini blend. We both had a diet coke for our beverage plus water. I would definitely go back.

1921 this local establishment began. 105 years ago. Sure, my solo dining for over $100 with tip was…read moreout of kilter with the value but there's are good reasons this institution is still here. Staff is one - a thrum of hive-like busy bee activity - they all worked hard from I could see and since this is a volume business, that is a backbone to their success. My Latino server was attentive and upbeat. Nice guy. Next - the food wasn't that bad at all. The Lobster Bisque was pleasant and the Flounder Francaise was fine - not $37 fine but hey, you're paying for location too. Plus I'm sure the fish was fresh. Shane they didn't have filet of sole. Coffee, apple pie with ice cream, and baked potato were each unremarkable - on par with diner chow. But again, it's not the Coffee House or the Baked Potato Mansion. I saw many families here and I suspect for many of those families, toddlers and elders in tow, years of their memories here with families is a valuable reason for them to go. Tradition has a place in a long term eatery. Like Sparks Steakhouse. Wait. My bad example. Like Krogs Fiske Haus in Copenhagen. I'll die childless and all my family are long gone so I'm afraid the other memorable aspects of this sprawling seafood beer hall (in appearance - not literally a beer hall) were just observations - like the bare breasted sea ship carvings on the walls - won't prompt my return. Fun fact: why they are bare-breasted: according to maritime folklore, showing an exposed breast was believed to "shame" the sea into becoming calm. It also served to appease the angry spirits of the ocean. For me, it just was a bit embarrassing to have the mammalian protuberances monitoring my feeding.

The menu was even better this time around too. We went for the prix fixe meal. We got: seared crab cake, yellow fin tuna poke, grilled octopus appetizer, rigatoni, Berkshire porkchop, strawberry panacotta, and dark chocolate tart. Everything was extraordinary. That grilled octopus was cooked to perfection. It was the perfect amount of charred without making the inside chewy in the slightest. The meat inside was still very tender. The yellow fin poke was an authentic dish with great portions. The entrees did not disappoint either. That rigatoni and the porkchop were both great main courses. The porkchop was easily my favorite dish of the night. Everything was perfect. The service was speedy, the food was delicious and in great portions. I would highly recommend visiting Grana.

Lots of windows and natural light. The four of us decided to split everything: - Artisanal Cheese Plate - this paired beautifully with our wine! - Yellowfin Tuna Tartare - great seasoning and texture - Burrata and Apple Panzanella Salad - this was better than expected. I ate more than my fair share of this! - Cauliflower Bisque - so smooth and flavorful. The bacon added a nice salty touch - Rigatoni/Radiatore/Orecchiette - we ordered all three house-made pastas. Delicious! We should have gone with the smaller size, but I wasn't mad at leftovers - Broccoli Rabe and Roasted Peppers - healthy and delicious - Brussels Sprouts and Bacon - Brussels are never wrong! Our server was SO sweet! I can't recall her name (I was in a food coma) but she had such a fun personality. Solid Cape May choice!

She had the farm fresh salad. Both flavorful. Entree for me, 2 sautéed soft shell crab special. Don't knock them until you've tried. I am a huge fan and these did not disappoint! Cooked perfectly with a nice crunch to the shell. I will not eat if battered and fried. Scallops for my friend. We shared the dark chocolate salted Carmel bread pudding. Flavor was more of a gingerbread Then chocolate and definitely not dark chocolate. Could have used a hint more of the sea salt. Over all not bad. Just not as advertised. Highly suggest reservations as far out as possible. Small intimate spaces.

The vibes are quaint with a very small indoor dining room and an outdoor patio that's a bit larger. I'm really glad we requested a table outside, because the patio was so nice on a warm summer evening. What we ate -- started things off with mozzarella and heirloom tomato salad (on special) and kale cesar. All produce is sourced locally from Beach Plum Farm and both dishes were fab. For our main we shared crab cakes and scallops. Both were so fresh and came with a large portion. Every entree comes with brown rice and house cabbage slaw. Reviews will mention that this is pretty plain, but with the fresh seafood and dipping sauces it's really the perfect accompaniment. The scallops came with a delicious sweet ginger sauce and the crab cakes came with a creamy lemony tartar sauce. The decor is fun and kitschy and the inflatable whale in the bathroom tub made me laugh. Don't forget to grab a chocolate bar at the Louisa's chocolate shop which is adjacent to the restaurant. I'll be thinking about this meal for a while.
