First time back in 10 years and wouldn't you know it we got Kim as our server again ! We had thought she left! What a nice treat. The food is always consistently good and the drinks are generous pours. What keeps us coming back is the service makes us feel like family. Thank you to Tim for the welcomed greeting and Kim for making us feel as if we are as much a part of the tuckahoe inn family as those who live here year long. Can't wait to see everyone again !! read more

We were a party of six looking for a nice place for dinner while on vacation. They took reservations, which we were happy about. We were on time for the reservation however the informed us that there would be a wait because " I can't kick people out of their table." restaurant was pretty, rustic and I liked the indoor outdoor option we chose indoor. We waited and extra 15 min past our reservation time. Ordered drinks and calamari as a starter, no problem! Dinner was ordered and took over a hour to be brought to the table. 3 steaks were ordered all over cooked. The prices are $$$ so the chef should know how to cook steak and not to let it sit. Nice atmosphere but would not go back due to the quality of food and price of overcooked food. read more

The food and the service is lacking in a big way. I used to really like this place and it is definitely trending downhill. My husband isn't one to complain and he brought his prime rib home as it was so tough he couldn't chew it. We figured we would give it to the dogs. He went to cut it and the steak knife wouldn't go through it. I thought he was kidding so I tried with a better knife and sure enough hubby was right. He actually had to use the vitamix to chop it up for the dogs. Tuckahoe Inn should be ashamed. The server was also not great or attentive and trust me with all the open tables he wasn't being overworked. The only one who seemed like he cared was the gentleman that poured the water. The actual waiter was useless. The other items we ordered weren't all that great either. The roasted potatoes were just that...potatoes void of any kind of spices or embellishments. The vegetables were salty. This food was mediocre at best. Sad but seems Tuckahoe Inns days are numbered. Its a shame as I really liked this place. read more

We arrived early - 2 of us for a 4 person dinner. The receptionist could not find my name although the book was not too full. The manager came out and found my name after I repeated and spelled it. I do not have a difficult name, although unique. I was sure of my reservation because I called and double checked earlier. To the bar for a drink. They were served quickly and although pricey, they were good. Our last 2 guests arrived and we went to our table. The server came over after a bit and was not paying attention. We placed our orders and repeated several times. We asked for separate checks and she glazed over. We ordered drinks, apps and entrees. 3 of the four apps came out along with our salads. My soup did not come out, a porter asked if everything was ok and I made him aware that I had not received my soup. He came back and stated the server forgot to put it in. The soup came out fairly quick but was warm not hot. Ok, not going to Judge over a simple mistake. My wife's "bisque" was a beef like broth. No taste of seafood at all. The oyster Rockefeller was over seasoned with fennel. Finish appetizers and the server comes to check on everything and has her butt right in my face as she is asking the table. It would have been ok if she didn't actually back up into me. The entrees started coming and 3 of the four were served. 2 were ok but the lobster raviolis were a watery lemon concoction. Bland to say the least. The same porter came by again 10 minutes later and asked why I was not having an entree. I stated I had ordered the fried seafood platter. He rushed off and the server came over shortly and stated the order would be right out. Everyone else was done their entrees and mine arrived. The scallops were mushy and warm. The shrimp were ok and the flounder was cold. You could tell the fry oil was old, it just had that funky flavor indicative of old oil. The server stopped by later and asked if everything was ok and I stated no but it was ok. Not going to make a mountain out of a mole hill. At no point did anyone apologize or offer to rectify the bad situation. The ambiance inside was holding like but the building is showing its age. It was not crowded even though most places are packed at this time of year. We will take our business elsewhere, I am sure this establishment will not be around for too much longer. Shame, this could be fixed if the ambition to fix what is broken is taken seriously. Wake up Tuckahoe Inn.... read more

My family and I attempted to dine here on Thursday, June 13th 2025 at their outside area (Back Bay Cafe). Upon arriving, we were told the outside is not open. Their website shows the hours for Back Bay Cafe as Wednesday through Thursday 12-9pm. With a family with young children, we always check menus and hours ahead of time to plan our outings since kids can be picky eaters. Instead of a nice evening out while on vacation, we dealt with hungry and grumpy kids until we found another place to eat. Please update the hours on your website, it's 2025..... read more

Been going here for years but something has changed. We walked in and the whole place smelled like an outhouse. The window next to our table was crawling with flies. My wife ordered the seafood combo and the lobster tail was over cooked on top and raw underneath. I don't even know how you could accomplish that. My filet steak was also over cooked and flavorless. Don't mind paying for a good meal but this was awful. read more

This is a quiet place with a gorgeous view during sunset. The back of the restaurant has large windows that give you a pretty view of the sunset and the bridge. Has a very comfortable "grandmas kitchen" ambience with a car in the front. We ordered the bruschetta to start and it came on crostini with balsamic glaze. Highly recommend. Our table also got the NY strip, crab cake sandwich and flounder stuffed with imperial crab. Each entree comes with a side salad. My guests loved the crab items! Giving four stars as the NY strip while I understand is "grilled" the outside was super charred. Otherwise, very delicious meal! for drinks we tried the margarita, blue vodka lemonade & a cosmo. Drinks came slow but we're good! They have an extensive drink menu and full bar. read more

Had the turkey dinner and it was average, I expected it to be better from this place. The mashed potatoes were dry and turkey kinda rubbery. We had a private room for a group and the constant smell of cigarettes wafted in through the windows. The server never refilled water or sodas, only the alcohol others were drinking. The house salad with their dressing was good though! Service took a while. read more

Everything about this place was great. From the time we entered the building til the time we left. Service was excellent , our server was Will. We started with a crab imperial in onions rings appetizer . That was absolutely delicious fresh lump crab made this a favorite . The crab cakes are also delicious as was the Steak sandwich. Fresh rolls nice linen topped tables ice cold beer and beautiful view overlooking the bay. You can't go wrong here, read more

The food was on a par with diner food. I think some of the food is not cooked on site. Onion soup was not good. Scallops were tough and served in watered down butter. I could only eat half of them and I love scallops. All four of us were not impressed. Prices were ok for the ambiance but not for the food quality. Service was very good and friendly. Ambiance was very good with a nice view. They need a new cook staff. read more

Great food and excellent service! Crab cakes were amazing as well as the chicken Parmesan. Ambience always nice and service was amazing. Kimmy's service was impeccable - answered all of our questions and was very attentive. Prices were reasonable - will definitely be back! read more

We made reservations for 7:30pm. We were seated promptly. It's a very busy restaurant. The menu had enough options for our party of 7. It's not a huge menu but we all were able to find things we liked. The food was really good. It's noisy but everyone was very happy and upbeat. The server was fine. He just seemed distracted. We would definitely go back. read more

I keep trying to like the Tuckahoe, but I just can't get there. For starters sat at the bar for 5 minutes before any of 3 bartenders acknowledged my presence. It wasn't particularly busy so no reason not to say "hello and I'll be right with you". Food orders at the bar are taken by a server v bartender. I see this pretty regularly but what is different here is the bar staff does nothing to support the clearly busy server. They even go so far to badmouth the poor server...bad form in my book. Food was below average unfortunately. I had chick parm n hub had scallops en casserole. Both were mediocre at best. Oh well I'll try again in a few years and hope for some improvements. read more

Still a great spot and sunset specials are a must and the view is still amazing!! I have been going here for forty years and love the traditional seashore vibe read more

The reviews for this place seem a bit hard to decode 5s and 1s. I knew something was up so I went to investigate. By the way, about 8 of the 1 star reviews appear to be from one day and perhaps one party This location is off the island and a 20 minute drive. We had 8 people with one in a wheelchair. They are one of the few places that take a reservation and had any kind of HC Accommodation. The HC accommodation was not quite up to code but workable enough for us. The venue is giant and bustling on a Friday Night. Several hundred folks easily there. The restaurant was opened in 1963 and had that vibe. Traditional seafood house vibe. Nothing fresh here but totally clean if a little worn. They do not try to be fancy but they do not try to be. Summer casual spot. Not the place for big city hoyty toyty There is a outdoor area with a great view, live band and rustic accommodations. It is on the water and folks bring their boats in. It has a casual vibe. They have a very limited venue. I think that some of the reviews with low food scores at reacting to this. Indoors, bustling. Hundreds of customers, dozens of servers working there asses off. The servers are very friendly but very busy. They all have multiple tables. They do have a system and food comes out in a reasonable time The food was prepared in a workmanlike fashion. Simple preparation and execution was a B+. Originality was a C Freshness was a A. Cost was high but it is seafood. Look, if you are coming here, get in a island state of mind and you will enjoy yourself. And be flexible, take it easy. You will get no better service anywhere in a casual beach resort in New Jersey. Sorry, no sushi Suzy, try Belize. I would go again. read more

Ordered food party of 7 . My Red Snapper was old ! It was very fishy and smelled bad . I get this all the time so I know what it should be like . The wait came to the table and asked do you want a box ? I told him know that is was bad and he did not even offer to take that one dinner off . Never again . read more

Tonight was my first time here. I will never return. Website said if you need gluten free options, discuss with your server. They want to keep you safe so they do not denote it on the menu. Well, my server could not have been bothered. He said certain things can be gluten free and that was the end of the conversation. I got an all Caesar salad with no croutons bc they were not getting my money. I will not be back. read more

So, I had a siblings reunion in Somers Point and decided to have dinner at the Tuckahoe Inn. There were four of us, some traveling from Cali. and Utah. We were hoping to enjoy some seafood for my guests from the West. As it turned out my Sister's stuffed flounder smelled sour as it was presented on the table. Everyone commented on the odor. I asked the waitress to return it to the kitchen which she did. She came back and apologized and was told she would not be charged for her meal and asked if she wanted another plate of the same. She said no (not sure who would say yes under those conditions)! Also, I asked for a refill on soda and was told "no free refills". What? For a drink that costs 10 cents? Be serious! So we all left feeling like we had bad food, bad customer service and wondering how a chef (and others) allowed that stinky ass fish to hit our table. I've been going there for years but I can honestly say I won't be back even though I live within a short distance from there. The rest of the food was bland and just OK. The rice pudding was gross, maybe if you COOK the rice it would taste better? All and all a nightmare so never again! read more

On vacation, took the family out for dinner, very disappointed. 2 strip steaks, over cooked, one prime rib overcooked. For the price of the dinner, I was expecting the chef to know how to cook a steak. Definitely not a recommendation from this family. The service was meh, took about 45-60 minutes to get the main course, with a lot of just a few more minutes in between. I had high hopes for this restaurant, so sad.... read more

Our party of 4 had dinner last night (07-23-25) We were seated in the upper section of the main dining room. When we were seated, we noticed the air conditioning was blowing right on us. When our waiter came to the table, we asked him if we could be seated at another table because it was very cold we were seated. He stated we would have to go back to the hostess and tell her.He then stated "are you moving or are you going to order", like we were bothering him. He said he would tell the manager to see if she could do something. We told him again about the air conditioning and he stated the manager came out and adjusted the flow, we told him we never saw the manager and he became unapologetic. We asked another staff member who I believe was the hostess who came into the dining room. We told about it being very cold and she claimed that the manager adjusted the temperture. So not resolving this problem this made the whole experience unacceptable, We guessed the temperture in the dinning room was possibly 65 degrees. Now for the food, in the past the food ws always good, that's why we kept going back when we were in the area. This time the Turkey dinners were dry and you had to cut the turkey with a butter knive not a steak type knife and I had to do the same with my chicken myland dish. The prime rib was very fatty. Getting back to the air conditioning, there is no reason that a dining room has to be that cold. This would of been my second time of going out to restaurants that I wasn't going to leave the waiter a tip but I gave him a lesser amount not the 20% I always leave. The whole experience was a terrible one and we will think twice about returning. read more

From reading the reviews I knew Tuckahoe Inn was going to be crowded and it was, like it was really, really crowded. But through some miracle my party of five got right in and were promptly seated. I also thought the food and service might be a hit or miss type of thing considering the crowds, but for us it was a totally delicious fantastic hit. Our service couldn't have been better and my meal was over the top excellent. I started off as I usually do with a Woodford Bourbon Manhattan which drink turned out to be rather good and of a decent size pour. Then I had their 1/2 dozen raw oysters which were excellent tasting from nearby Delaware Bay. For my entrée, and this was really a top notch standout of a dish, I had their "Black and Blue Prime Rib with Crabmeat." On their menu they claimed it to be outrageously delicious and indeed it was. The hand cut piece of prime rib had been seared in Cajun spices then covered off with an in house blue cheese dressing and crab meat finishing. It was so good I ignored any thoughts of cholesterol intake because if does any harm, for me it was worth it. read more

Took a relaxing hour ride for an early lunch/dinner with some friends. Since we were eating early, the restaurant was empty. But for some reason, we were seated right next to a table that had 4 ladies who were quite loud. The tables were extremely close to one another and it was actually difficult to squeeze into our seats...very awkward. We made the best of it and ordered our meals. The food was very good however, we no sooner finished our desert and the staff began to clear our table....right down to our water glasses. In the meantime, the ladies at the adjacent table (who had actually finished their meals before we even sat down) were given a refill of their water. I cannot figure out why we were given the "bums rush". There were several empty tables and no one was waiting. Maybe we had been there for an hour....certainly no longer than that. Unfortunately, I will not be so inclined to make the hour ride to eat at the Tuckahoe Inn again. If I had not been embarrassed and caught off guard, I would have asked the gentlemen clearing our table why he was being so rude. read more

The Tuckahoe Inn was just off our route on our trip to Cape May. Since it was just before lunch we decided to stop here. The reviews didn't look promising but pictures showed beautiful waterfront seating and views so we decided to stop. The restaurant is located at the end of a dead end residential street. When I arrived with my friend we couldn't help notice the large steel factory just to the left. The area is extremely quiet. We were seated inside near the windows, the outdoor area wasn't open. The views are definitely the best part of this place as long as you don't look left towards the factory. Me and my friend both ordered the Caesar salad with grilled chicken. The chicken tasted like it was cooked days before and reheated. The lettuce barely looked washed. The Caesar dressing was watery. Our waiter was nice but didn't even question why neither of us finished our meals. I'm just thrilled neither of us started off our girls weekend being sick from this meal. read more

Very annoyed by the entire experience. The soup and salad were delivered to the table together. The cowboy ribeye was so grisly that I rejected the plate. Then as the second plate was delivered the wait staff began clearing the table of the other 5 guests who were finishing their meals. The turn and burn atmosphere really made me never want to return again. Figure out how to take training or give up expecting return diners. Is there less than one rating? read more

The Tuckahoe Inn is seafood location on the water. They have a nice outdoor deck where you have a nice view of the back bay, as well as a nicely sized interior. The service was good, and our server did a nice job of taking care of us. The food was just OK, however, and overall it was somewhat disappointing in that respect. I got a surf and turf, and ordered my steak medium rare. Unfortunately, it came out medium well, and I asked them to re-fire it. The second steak came out rare...I'd even say "blue" as most of the steak was totally raw, with just a barely cooked outside that was maybe 1/8" think. I just kept it, took it home, and cooked it myself. Overall, the place has a great deal of potential, but the inability to cook a steak at a place that has steak and seafood as a part of their menu was not ideal. Definitely a great location, but not a place I'd return for just the food. read more

Always a great meal in a beautiful setting! Our server was fantastic. The filet was cooked perfectly on a very busy Saturday night.

Great Place on the bay!! Food and service were awesome. You can pull your boat/board/or jet ski right up. Dog friendly--always a plus!

To the Management at the Tackahoe Inn, you truly are doing a disservice to your patrons and to your servers with the way you seat and give out tables to your servers. We recently sat in the small closed off room by the front of the restaurant and there were 7 servers serving 7 tables in our room and not one table was given any attention or adequate service. We asked to speak to the manager George before we left and we were told he was "predisposed" and couldn't be seen or spoken to. This is unacceptable as management of a restaurant. We have been frequent patrons of the Tackahoe Inn for 10 years but we may never come back after our service tonight and lack of management. Shame on you. read more

Stop with the Fabuloso spray on the tables! Smelled like my bathroom! Food was good but the smell of fabuloso totally overpowered the aroma of good food. And we were outside! read more

This place is a food factory. Super noisy, super crowded. Know what you are in for and embrace it and you can have fun. Major issue was we had a bad table in the back corner and the waiters and bus boys were just slamming dishes and cabinets so loud it was insane. Not many options with a bar in the area, so you take what you can get. Older crowd, glorified diner food. Attentive bar service. Might be best to sit outside and get causal food and enjoy the view of the bridge and power plant, lol. read more

Ugh, what an overrated overhyped restaurant. Guess this is a local favorite ... age old favorite? The place was full with locals and tourists. Had their "crab stuffed flounder." The ingredients were so mashed together and overcooked that I truly could not taste any specific flavors. Sides, potatoes and veggies, were, sort of, OK. My dinner companions appeared to be satisfied. In fact, wildly pleased with the restaurant and the food. But, if this is one of the premier restaurants of the area, I am saddened by the local taste/cuisine. Glad I am only a visitor from quite a distant location. The service was very slow. Barely saw our wait staff who did not not check on us for any additional needs or water. read more

After driving past this place for like seems forever my wife and I bit the bullet and came here for our anniversary dinner. OMG we are totally glad we did. It was clean the hostess were friendly. Our waitress was just OK. Now I had the chicken parm. It was the best chicken parm I ever had. Shhh!! Please don't tell my wife, she makes a mean parm. The portion of chicken was big and served with angel hair. It had right amount of sauce and cheese. It was perfect. My wife had the surf and turf. She loved it. The food was so good there was no conversation during dinner. They served us rolls before dinner. They were very good. So good my wife asked for more. She never does this. We will totally be coming back. read more
