The seafood we use is the freshest and locally caught. We offer mako, swordfish, flounder and scallops when in season from our local fishermen. We use only jumbo lump crabmeat. Saturday night our prime rib is certified black angus. All soups are made from

Weâve been to Menz several times with family (not my choice!). I do not understand the fascination with this place. The food is overpriced and nothing special. The service was spotty at best-as if they did not have sufficient waitstaff. The portions are decent but for the price should be more. The decor is very eclectic...like someone took an antique store and blended it with your crazy uncleâs taxidermy collection (do you really want a deer or moose mounted on the wall, staring at you as you eat?). The gift/candy shop was nice-kids and adults will get a kick out of the âpenny candyâ. I get it that this establishment is a long time fixture in Cape May County (hence the multiple pictures of FDR). I guess everyone needs to go once for the experience. Do so, and then move on. And try not to be freaked out by the two-headed goat.

On a summer Tuesday night at 7:00, the wait to dine in was about 20 minutes. Well worth the wait! Menu is simple, lots of seafood choices as well as non-seafood options, like burgers or chicken parm. Food was excellent! Broiled scallops were perfectly cooked and the crab cake was delicious. Food is very simply served in baskets and take out containers by bubbly, friendly servers. BYOB, very casual.

We went out looking for crabs and after reading the review had to try Crab and Seafood Shack. Everyone at the family run shack was friendly and welcoming. All of our food was delicious and prices were unbeatable. We could have tried everything on the menu. We will be back!

Excellent appetizers with great atmosphere!~ Will be going back there again for dinner. Even on an early Monday afternoon it was filling up at 4:00 pm.

The Boathouse Restaurant is a casual restaurant that specializes in seafood and steaks, with amazing views of the inter-coastal waterways and spectacular sunsets. The deck is a more casual atmosphere with live music during the summer months, and great opt

Great food. I can vouch for the stuffed flounder. Iâve had stuffed flounder before but the crab stuffing was delicious, well seasoned and complemented the flounder, Busy place but for a Saturday night, on a holiday weekend, the wait was about 15 minutes. Service was prompt and our waitress Chrystal was attentive even though very busy, thereâs live entertainment also.
5. Hooked Up Seafood

Basically a shack squeezed in between a highway and a dock near a salt marsh. You eat on metal picnic tables. This is about as casual as a restaurant gets. We went twice and everything was excellent both times. The scallop special was outstanding on our first visit, as was the blackened swordfish special on our second visit. On our second visit we got a dozen crabs (for three people), which took a huge amount of work to eat (and lots of pounding with wooden mallets) but they were also very good. The corn on the cob was the best I've had in restaurant -- it's one dish that's almost always better at home, but Hooked Up's was great. Strong recommend.

This review reflects my meal. I was convinced to follow our restaurant week plan and try different places rather than return to the Italian establishment first visited. We ordered the rib and mushroom appetizers, both good but understandably smaller than standard. The salads were OK. My complaint is with the salmon. Their "4 Course Dinner" fell way short of the Italian participant's. My wife's steak was non-offensive and prepared as requested. My bacon encrusted salmon was about the size if an average man's thumb and lost in the scoop of mashed potatoes. I was told that portions were adjusted to ensure no impact on margins. We have participated in restaurant weeks in many other areas. Items that are determined to be unprofitable at lunch size should not be listed. We do not go to a restaurant week participant to see what our 6 and 8 year old grand kids get from the Costco demonstrators. The promo successfully got us in but earned my first bad review. Probably will avoid the 50 mile drive to try the others on the list.

A perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing lunch or an exciting night out after a day taking in the Jersey Shore's sun and sights. From the moment you step inside our doors you will feel the vibe that is distinctly Fins.

Just stopped in for something light and wound up ordering and sharing two appetizers. The fried calamari was very good, as was the lobster Mac and cheese. Both portions were very generous but a little too salty. Service was good, and ambiance pleasant with several large, beautiful fish tanks. Convenient location on the Washington Mall.
