“We had an absolute perfect dining experience. Each course was outstanding. Peach & Burrata salad, delicious. Scallops perfectly done and chocolate panna cotta so good. Loved every thing about Grana BYOB.“

“We dined on Friday, 10.31.25 supporting the Cape May Restaurant Weekend. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Red Snapper Alla Plancha that was impeccably simmered in a tomato-saffron cream sauce along with the delectable additions of mussels, rock shrimp, creamer potatoes and confit fennel. I had the wonderful opportunity to sample the Grilled Duroc Pork Chop with aged gouda potato purée, ginger glazed vegetables, sherry wine cream sauce and seasonal mostarda that was done to absolute perfection. I haven't cleaned my plate like that for years! My wife echoed that it was one of the top three dinners that we have ever had as a couple....Our service was second to none from the expediters, bussers and our very warm and personable server, Anna, who just added to the overall dining experience. A five star event for sure!“

“EXCELLENT FROM SOUP TO NUTS !!!!“

“We were drawn to this place because it seemed like a “real” restaurant rather a showplace for the latest trends. And it’s true! There are no “apps” here, and no “handhelds.”” It’s not fancy in the least, though the atmosphere is colorful and relaxing. The food’s not fancy either; instead, it’s simple, extremely plentiful and delicious. It was refreshing to be there!“

“Living in Court house, the choices for pizza were limited and mediocre. Moved to Del Haven (in delivery distance now) we ordered Rino's pizza BEST PIE IN TOWN! Perfect crust, silky cheese, savory sauce & speedy delivery! I'm hooked!“

“My friends and I had been wanting to try Provence, and it surpassed our expectations. Upon arrival, we were taken in by the stunning decor and historical architecture and character. LOVE the exquisite wallpaper throughout!
We decided on the 3 course meal and were in awe of the presentation, immersed in the delectable flavors, and impressed with the portion sizes. Many of us took home leftovers. All 6 of us were very pleased with our meals. I highly recommend Provence!“

“The Water Star Grille is the outdoor restaurant on the bay at the Reeds in stone Harbor. The food is expensive, but that comes with the territory. Our server was very pleasant and the quality of all the food we ordered was great. I was disappointed that you only get 6 oyster half shells for $28.....but I should have asked about quantity before ordering. I am pretty sure that I have never only received 6 oysters when ordering an iced tray of oysters before. The reason to go here for dinner is the view of the sunset over the bay for dinner outside on a beautiful summer day.“

“Good food good bartenders great service“

“Food was excellent and service was excellent, fun quiz night my husband and I will be back here!“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“Went Saturdsy night for the rib special. I had been there years ago and was not impressed with the food. The ambiance is good, the service terrific, the drinks well made & a great happy hour. Our rib dinner came with a choice of salad or soup. I chose the salad which was fresh and plentiful. My wife chose clam chowder. She loved it. So i tried hers. It was great. Also dinner came with a fresh loaf of bread with butter and dipping oil. The ribs were very good and full rack along with a baked potatoe and asparagras. We will be back again“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’re locals and chose Sax at the Reeds to celebrate our anniversary on a Tuesday night in September. Since many of the local steakhouses were closed, we decided to give Sax a try — and we’re so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming. Our server, Patrick, was absolutely outstanding. He was attentive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and wine list, and even made something as simple as choosing a steak knife a fun and memorable experience. He explained where the knives came from, what they were made of, and offered his favorite — such a unique touch! The food was just as impressive. I went with a mix of apps and a salad — the shrimp cocktail (huge shrimp!), perfectly seared local scallops (I was expecting three and got closer to eight!), and the truffle cheese burrata salad, which was loaded with heirloom tomatoes, arugula, basil, balsamic reduction, sea salt, and basil oil. Everything was fresh and delicious. My husband had the New York Strip with truffle fries and grilled asparagus — a perfectly cooked, hearty steak that left him very satisfied. We left completely full and so happy with our experience. Sax exceeded our expectations in every way, and we’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend for both locals and visitors looking for a special dinner spot!“

“Always a great experience awesome bartenders and food“

“Terrific food. And when we had a little problem with our table Manager Jackie went above and beyond to make it more than right. She did this with grace and professionalism. We’ll be back.“

“Great casual restaurant at the beach. Nice view, good food and friendly efficient servers. Don't forget your wallet, as cash only, but there they do have an ATM.“
