    Fried Seafood Combination (Flounder, Shrimp, Scallops, Crab Cake)
    Summer B.

    For takeout this satisfied my expectations! If this spot was closer to my home, I'd be a frequent customer known by name! I thoroughly enjoyed everything. The golden brown breading was well seasoned and every bite of seafood was fresh. Even the tarter and cocktail sauce was good quality. The mussels were plump and delicious. The cheesesteak rolls gave me that feel good Philly food vibe. The inside of the establishment was clean, and the staff was friendly and well organized.

    We had the broiled sampler - 2 shrimp, 2 scallops, a lobster tail and a piece of fish. Super bland. Thank goodness for some lemon. Everything except the fish was over cooked (dry and tough). We also got a crab cake and NE clam chowder. The crab cake and soup were pleasant. The main dish came w a healthy portion of pre frozen fries and a surprisingly tasty cole slaw. The staff was pleasant as well. Too bad the main event was a big disappointment. Fish Factory, off to davey jones locker. Out!

I ordered a yellow fin sandwich, cooked medium rare, which was one of the featured fresh catch fish of the day. Without a doubt this this was probably the best seared yellowfin tuna I've ever eaten. The sear was perfect, the yellowfin was perfectly seasoned and the size was generous. The flavor and texture were perfect as well. I decided to eat it off the bread because I didn't want the the roll to mask the fresh caught yellowfin flavor. The sandwich was served with a heaping amount of tasty and crunchy housemaid chips. We ate while watching the sunset over the water. Wish we lived nearby, because we'd become regulars if we did. Well done Hooked Up!!

A young woman noticed my table was dirty, she came over to clean it and even offered to bring crayons and a coloring page for my toddler. Not only is the serving phenomenal but the food is as well. We had the chowder, shrimp and clams as starters. Lighthouse blush wine. My husband had blackened sword fish and I had the fish tacos. Everything was delicious. We even ordered some shirts to take back home. We will definitely make this a staple location when we are in the area. 10/10. It's rare to find good food and great service these days. I almost want to gatekeep but they deserve all of the recognition.

    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.

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.

Never had anything like this before. It's served with ritz crackers and small slices of jalapeño. It was absolutely delicious. Is this something that's at other places? Really never saw it before. For my main course I got the lemon herb salmon salad. Really didn't need the starter. This was plenty filling. Very good. Salmon had some bone in it so be careful. I was surprised by two pieces and one I accidentally swallowed. The avocado in the salad was not ripe at all. I had to pull it out. Couldn't stab my fork into it. Staff is awesome. Super friendly.

We ended up sitting outside because their was a long wait for the indoor seating. I ordered the all you can eat blue crab special, and the waitress explained she would be bringing my food out first, since the process of eating crabs would take longer. They started me off with about 2 dozen medium sized blue crabs. They were all male, seasoned heavily with Old Bay, cooked well, and easy to break down. It also came with an ear of corn and fries. Our waitress kept our drinks filled and checked in on us frequently. This was probably my favorite meal during my trip to Wildwood.
