A very unique dining experience. All of the dishes were wonderful. Service was great too. Would definitely recommend coming back to try the seasonal food. Make a reservation, you won't be disappointed!

Been here a couple times for the Unlimited Brunch and it does not disappoint. A bunch of different tasty options. Wait staff is very friendly and explains everything clearly and gives you the rundown. I did deduct one star for being cash only, with that said, it is definitely worth checking out.

This place has a quality breakfast at a very reasonable price. For 20 bucks per person (CASH ONLY) you get a made-to-order breakfast (one at a time) unlimited! Our favorite was the smooth criminal- their grits was fabulous!! Their guava Spano was great too first time but second time it was a bit soggy for some reason. Their avocado toast is fantastic I would definitely come back again!
Fabulous first time at Shamone. I have a dairy allergy and the chef nailed it. All my courses were delicious. We had plenty of food. Service was great and we liked the music. Will definitely be back!

This was our first time dining at Shamone's. It was an experience to say the least. The dining room is very small and intimate. It was very, very dimly lit. The music was a little too loud but an awesome play list! I thought we got photos of every course and they didn't add up to the advertised 15 courses, maybe we missed a few?? All that being said, we had a great time and enjoyed every course. We will definitely be going back again!

15 Course Tasting Menu Dinner - Shamone is a "Must Bring Friends" when they come to the shore. Fun, Upbeat and really good Sampling Menu of 15 items. No Better value at the shore. One Seating at 7PM and that's it. Feels like a private dinner once it starts. Great staff , great viewing of the chefs once it starts. Just a great Time. Music is louder than usual, but it really drowns out the other chatter in the background and does not have you speaking any louder for your table conversation. Great relaxing pace, takes about 2 hours start to finish.
The most bang for your buck! We had the unlimited brunch and everything was delicious there was not one thing that we didn't enjoy! See you next time we come down to Cape May!

Once again we had an awesome dining experience at Shamones. We were treated to 10 tasting plates, all different and professionally cooked and plated. Our waitress, Tori, made sure we were pleased with every course. She accurately described each plate as it was presented. Joe, the talented food preparer was conversing with us at the end of the night. We appreciated his taking the time to speak to us. Well done, Shamones.
This is an interesting brunch spot in cape May in an ideal down town location. Very small cafe restaurant ten tables or less. Their brunch menu cash only $20.00 per person offers all you can eat essentially. There are some string attached which will be explained by the wait staff. The menu has some interesting options. Warning there are some things on the menu which they don't have or have altered with different ingredients. This is most annoying when you're looking forward to getting what's on the menu. When I asked the waitress her answer was we have new owners and have not changed the menu. Well that's unfortunate just print them on paper.... We tried the biscuits and gravy dish was no pastrami however it was made with brisket . I wanted to like it better but it's Smokey flavor might have been a little much also biscuit not house made. We had French toast which was breakfast cereal crusted this was most blah and underwhelming dish going. No flavor. The avocado toast was a nice dish fresh with avocado spread and greens on good bread. The shrimp and grits came to table with a really nice presentation. Three medium shrimp atop grits good portion. The breakfast flatbread was more like a pita grilled on a flat top, jarred sauce ... blah. The breakfast quiche was light small portion with feta on top. The breakfast burrito was good also standard eggs and chorizo on tortilla. The loaded tots were also good although more heavy dish. The lemon ricotta pancakes were not good , not cooked through still wet with batter and off consistency. The waitress was good and explained the process , menu and the items to us. They did give us gift card for 20 due to pancake issue which is great customer service. Restaurant required a reservation on the app and a credit card hold.... Seems excessive for a restaurant of this caliper especially since when we arrived there was only one table. The ambiance was a bit odd dark colors and cartoon vibe. I'm sure in the summer it's crazy just based on resort town location . If you like all you can eat concept this might be a try for you . I'll pass on my end. Everything came out fast which gave me the impression it was semi premade. All in bill was 91.00 so with gratuity 111.00 for 4 people this is not bad for brunch. Don't forget this place is BYO if you want to bring the bubbly to brunch.

We had so much fun here for our first anniversary! The owner was extremely personable and checked on us multiple times throughout the night. Our waitress was also extremely attentive! Each course was so creative and presented in a fun way! The ambience and music also made the evening so unique. We would totally come back here!

We thought it would be tapas like their dinner, but they were large portions. You can have as many as you want for $20. There are also alacarte items. It's byob, and they have Bloody Mary mix for purchase, as well as juices. It is a small place but there was only another couple there, so it was quiet. Kyle gave us excellent service and suggestions. It is only high top seating...some stools with backs and some without. We will go again for brunch and try their tapas dinner as well.
