50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cape May Ct Hse

“We threw a joint 60th/30th birthday bash at The Bellevue Tavern in their private room, and it was an absolute blast! The private room was gorgeous — big surround windows giving us tons of natural light, a dance floor, and tables that worked perfectly for groups from 4 to 10.
The staff crushed it, super attentive servers and a bartender who kept everyone happy… our signature cocktails were premade and ready to roll — no waiting in line!! The food was amazing, plentiful and delicious- especially the crab cakes. Plus, we got to bring in our own DJ and dance all night (though they would’ve piped in music if we wanted).
Special shout-out to Dennis, the owner, and his son, they were fantastic from the time of booking straight through to the very end of the party. They (along with the servers) constantly checked in during the night, totally hands-on and making sure everything ran smoothly, but never in an intrusive way. Our guests are still raving about it. If you’re looking for a spot to celebrate, this is the place. Bellevue Tavern nailed it!“

“Best Dinner in the area great prices“

“Delicious food. Never disappoints !“

“Always love the Lobster House, been going for years. Ate at the Raw Bar. Had the grilled swordfish with lemon butter, side of fries and corn on the cob. Fish was cooked perfectly and the corn was nicely cooked, not mushy.

Was a rainy day after Labor Day so was slow, but still loved eating on the deck looking at the water and boats.“

“Overall, excellent experience, as usual........Service( as provided by Nick) was superb, as was the cuisine: a shared Caesar salad, the BLT scampi for my wife, while I had the 8 oz filet steak....... the last dining nite ... Will For Sure return next season......“

“I have been going to this restaurant since I was a little girl. It brings back so many wonderful memories when my husband and I visit every summer with our sons! Great food and atmosphere!“

“We had a great time at Stowaways. Pat was the best!“

“The wife and I were out and about and decided to try the Waterside location in Lakewood Ranch Fl. I have to say im a bit of a critic because we have family in Maine and have tasted all ends of the spectrum of lobster rolls from amazing to terrible and this place makes a great Lobster rolls with a spot on price comparable to Maine and other restaurants in the area. The staff member we dealt with was super nice I wish I would have got his name, but I do know he was from Jersey and had great knowledge knew the product well. We had 2 Connecticut rolls and they were great. I would say this place is worth checking out. Theres only outdoor seating, but you can easily walk around waterside and find a spot to kick back and enjoy or walk out enjoy their outdoor seating and it will complement their lobster rolls very well. They also have nice little selection of beers/beverages and a whole N/A fridge too.“

“Very good crab cake and fish n chips! I get these entrees often and was very impressed. The fries were mediocre tho considering curleys and chickies are nearby. But we were not there for fries! My husband got the Caesar salad that used homemade type croutons, real shredded parm, and a good creamy dressing!! We will def be back!“

“Excellent Food with fair prices, perfect convenience store with almost everything you could need, plus fair prices if you gently compare an small business with sll this monster chain stores... Customers service always good and friendly, specially when he remember every single member of your house and ask for them every single time they aren't with you!Very Good People... Wings are my favorite!“

“Harpoons on the Bay just makes me smile. The Atmosphere, Views, Food, Staff and Clientele seem to fit perfectly to make your experience enjoyable and memorable!“

“This place has great seafood. Had crab Imperial and it was really good. Had Manhatten clam chowder soup. And it was awesome. It was loaded with clams and had good herbs best I ever had. Can't wait to go back and try the other soups and seafood.“

“Excellent..everything!! nice waiter too!!“

“One word! Delicious! Will be visiting again next year!“

“Worst experience of my life! I had my micro wedding here and was charged for things I didn't get. No drinks were verbally offered they just had a separate table with pitchers of water on it. We paid $100 extra to have a table set up with lemonade and or iced tea pre ceremony. I was supposed to be able to set up my wedding favors on this table as well. The seafood dish was supposed to have scallops in it and we noticed they omitted them. In the private beach area where we were supposed to have our ceremony they had an event going on up to 15 minutes before my ceremony. They had picnic tables alongside the ceremony just overlaping and pushed against the fence I had to ask them to move so they would not be in my pictures. I had barely any time to set up decorations. The air-conditioning was broke supposedly in the whole restaurant they could not even provide fans so my guests were very hot and uncomfortable. The upstairs was supposed to be our rain plan but we asked if we could have everything up there and the GM would not allow us to move to the upstairs that was air-conditioned and not being used but I was allowed to change into my dress upstairs. We were told it cost more to have it upstairs. I felt like considering the air conditioner not working they should have moved us. Honestly I could go on and on but I'm too exhausted! I felt like I missed out on a lot of photo opportunities and moments bc of how hot and uncomfortable everyone was!“

“Had dinner with the wife and daughter here Thursday night, 9/18/2025...
This was one of the best dinners we have ever had.
FIVE STAR everything at a very good price.
The oysters, the bluefish, the squid, the tile fish....Everything was fresh and prepared and presented perfectly.
And the wait staff even better.
Will be going back again for certain.
Thank you for a great experience...“

“Stopped by to pick up some shrimp for my first attempt at a seafood boil and this place had everything super fresh and the price was lower than we expected for Jersey Shore. Ended up getting 4 pounds of peeled shrimp, 2 bags of crab legs/claws and fried flounder sandwiches that were also delicious. Our boil turned out amazing all of our guests raved about it. Could have even gotten all of our produce here if we wanted to they had everything.“

“Simply amazing! Perfect food, service and view. The best restaurant at the Jersey shore.“

“I have used Lucky Bones’s Eric three times in the last five years for catering parties at my home/in my yard. Twice I also booked waitresses with my party. The food is always delicious, the service reliable. We ran out of chicken tenders for the kids once and they brought over a new batch! Everything is set up as ordered and arrives on time. You can’t go wrong with them for your party. My father’s small after-funeral reception was in their back room and my husband and I eat at the restaurant at least once a month. Highly recommend.“

“every year my extended family and i go ( 20+ people) here during the summer and the service is amazing. the seafood here is amazing along with all their other food. I remember coming here as a kid and having a great time playing in a sandbox they had. I recommend lobster, crab, and chicken parm.“

“I didn’t get any pics i am so sad about that! First i would like to start off that JoJo was an amazing server. The clams were delicious. We ordered calamari which was extra crispy! My husband had the fried flounder, my daughter had the lobster roll and my son had the lobster grilled cheese. The lobster was delightful but the grilled cheese was outstanding. I had the homemade crabcake! Wow! So Good !!“

“Food is great, awesome salad bar and amazing service“

“We love Port. Always a great breeze and view at the outdoor bar. Drinks, salads, seafood, oysters, and sushi are just perfect. And, Luke is one of the nicest and friendliest bartenders in the CM area. We will be back.“

“food was absolutely amazing, staff was kind, and attentive but not annoyingly over. Definitely will be back when we come back to avalon“

“The food is decent but this location is all about where you are seated. Previously we were under the blue awning adjacent to Two Mile Landing and it was awesome. This time we were seated back by the bar in the middle of the deck. Tables were packed tight and people on top of you . Probably the worst outdoor seating area in the entire place. Highly recommend you be specific on where you want to sit instead of just selecting outdoor area as this was awful.“

“We order dinner from here each time we visit Avalon. We love that we can call in the afternoon & arrange a time for pickup. Everything we’ve had has been very good & hot! We all look forward to “seafood night” from Avalon Seafood!!“

“Thank you for an amazing memorable birthday dinner. A true gem of Stone Harbor.“

“This is the spot if you are looking for great food and a family friendly atmosphere! The food was perfect, zero issues. This is the spot you want to spend your hard earned money, a family business. The highlight was talking to Joe and his wife. He is surrounded by his family and it shows that he is proud that they are all working together and serving a great product. This will be our new spot when we come on vacation! See you next year Joe!“

“Great food and beautiful sunsets“

“Awesome bar and atmosphere“

“Our bus tour took us to the Boathouse for lunch and we all agreed it was the best meal of the trip. Fried shrimp was amazing and the staff was very attentive.“

“The vegetarian chicken parmigiana was out of this world and the bruschetta flat bread, perfection. We will be back.“

“Hi I want to sing my praises to two of your waitresses that went above and beyond during our meals while vacationing in Wild Woods. Our first Experience and 2nd we had the pleasure of having “Niki” and truly we could not ask for better service than she offered,her tone,her understanding and the way she treated my toddler is immeasurable and the small details that were paid attention to were not found in other establishments we tried. I hope she knows how valued and appreciated she is by our family! We stopped in for one last meal before heading back to MD and we were cared for. A waitress I don’t re call a name but long curly hair,and a smile that lit up a room and was welcoming,her table side manner was fantastic she joked with us and also treated my daughter remarkably well where again other establishments frowned upon her questions or acted as she wasn’t talking. Furthermore,Noticing the whole atmosphere was a fantastic vibe, Everyone was smiling and working as a team. Can’t wait to return !“

“WoW WoW WoW ! Today was my first time dining here and it certainly won’t be my last. Everything was incredible. Shrimp tempura for a starter and it was outstanding. The salmon dish was out of this world and like no other salmon entrée I have ever had. You will not be disappointed and the service was top notch! Well Done jays on third“

“Everything is delicious 😋“

“This spot is very underrated! There was a bit of a wait even with a reservation for the indoor tables. The outdoor is first come first serve. The waitstaff inside was extremely nice even with us having little kids there! The food was incredible! The seafood risotto and the seafood penne vodka were both great!“

“Good food and great atmosphere“

“My wife and I really enjoyed dinner. We had fish tacos that were absolutely fantastic.“

“We visit the surfing Pig every time we are down here! Fabulous restaurant right on the bay. We have beautiful sunset pictures!
Went Friday night they were able to accommodate our party of 13 very easily. Ordered a few different starters for the table. my friend loved the raw oysters and bang shrimp. We enjoyed everything from crab cakes to grilled chicken to the Halibut special and the ribs. We all enjoyed our meals and will most definitely be back again!“

“Staff is so kind and food is delicious! We had both lunch the day we arrived to Cape May and then on our way home we stopped for breakfast! We will definitely be back!“

“Food is amazing staff needs to pick the pace up alittle they like to stand around and talk and decide when they help you … we waited at hostess booth while 3 people saw us … then when paying the bill 3 ladies were standing there talking. They finished there conversation while me & the kids waited till they were done talking to come and help us …. To me working in retail I’ve always been told customers come first …. Just saying“
