The pizza at this place is quite good, especially the pepperoni or plain varieties. However, the service is disappointing. It seems the establishment is managed by inexperienced individuals. The two managers, who frequently adjusted their suits and danced to the blasting techno music near the bar, appeared young and out of touch. They seemed more interested in walking aimlessly around the room than in attending to customers or assisting their staff. The food runners were the most aware and provided the best service. Perhaps they should be the ones managing. We waited with empty drinks for a good 20 minutes and were never offered dessert menus. As a result, we requested our bill and headed to an ice cream shop down the street.

This place is the bomb ? Get here if you haven't been. They serve pizza and light fare until about nine. Then, a five piece band plays all night to a hopping room. Nice bar as well!

Super fun and underground feel, with a little 90s and 2000s alternative and classic hits playing. Come here for the pizza and drinks and leave stuffed and happy! We did the arugula and prosciutto for one, and the soppressata and capicola pizza for the other. Deliciously sweet and salty mix, with outstanding flavor in dough and sauce. Cooked brick oven style to perfection.Highly recommend getting a spot in this cozy location, the earlier the better. Hands down, the best pizza in Cape May.

This is hands down the WORST service I have ever experienced. Unfortunately, being at congress hall for a wedding meant that I would spend 2 nights in this horrible bar.Night 1: I arrived later in the evening and was informed that the bar would be having last call at 12:30am. At 12:15 they announced last call and I ordered one more beer. Less than 10 minutes later they ordered everyone out of the bar. I was unable to finish my beer and they wouldn’t let me take it elsewhere in the hotel.Night 2: Was charged $84 for 3 drinks. Two double tequila sours and a miller light. My sister was order to leave her drink on the bar until it was payed for. The drinks were awful.I have never encountered a ruder wait staff in my life. I will never come back and regret spending a dime here.

It's really a great place to know.. sesting and bar is a bit limited, and it gets busy, so it took a while to find seating for two.But the atmosphere is great.Drinks were good, they pour a good martini, not a terrible beer selection. Pizzas were done well.. dough and crust were an enjoyable surprise. This visit was prosciutto & arugula wood fired.There was a band that started playing halfway through the visit. I didn't mind, but if you're there for a quiet conversation, it was a little loud for that.I personally loved how there are quite a few TVs sunk into the walls and not intrusive. I do not like watching TV or when they are in your face obstructing views and atmosphere..you can miss these TVs even though every seat had a view of a TV for those who like that.Generally their is a bit of a bustling / loudness to the place on a Friday night. Good mixed crowd for typical vacationer spot. It's worth going to explore the menu and chill at the bar or a really nice high top tucked along the brick wall.Kid-friendliness: One of those places a table full of adults and kids just blend in even though it's a very adult place. It's very busy and active, and kids' energy just will blend right in. I would take mine here at any age

This place deserves a 0 . We ordered 2 apps meatballs and pasta.Meatballs came out ice cold , and the waitress exchanged it and they tasted like ikea meatballs with awful tomato sauce.. then we order a margarita pizza and special pizza .They should have fresh mozzarella but instead had shredded cheese and very salty , sauce is awful. THIS IS NOT PIZZA.. after all that our pasta app came it was the worst I ever had in my life..whoever gives this place a positive review doesn't know food.1st and last time we go there..

Jared, our server, gave us the heads up about the hot peppers on the pizza. Great advice! We got the pizza 1/2 peppers because I do not like it too spicy. He also informed us that the Ceasar Salad was large. This was true so we shared the salad. The atmosphere was great, the food amazing delicious and we would highly recommend.

Sorry I can't rate the food. We got drinks and listened to the band play. Service was slow because the place was very crowded.

Staff completely incompetent. Waited for a table for 2. The hostess said 15 min wait. Lots of empty tables. As we are waiting a group of eight gets seated and the hostess tells us there are no more tables for the night. Very disappointed.
