Shamone - CAPE MAY

Please note the negative reviews!!!!!! I usually never post reviews. I was almost not even here because I was feared by the negative reviews. You shouldn't expect a delicious and fancy culinary experience here. This is a fun and bright hearty place and the food fits perfectly. The music that plays all night was a wonderful collection of repulsion music, as on a feeling and oasis on the street. This paired so well with fun dinner conversations and tantalizing dishes. My favorites are the shrimp empanada and Scallop Ceviche. This is a unique culinary experience and I am thrilled that I had the chance to experience it!

Fun set menu of small plates. Food was excellent and casual and relaxing

This place is fantastic! The service was outstanding, with attentive staff and a chef who clearly cares about their craft. The food was simply delicious. As a picky eater, my wife was initially apprehensive, but she ended up enjoying 14 out of the 15 dishes we tried. We both had more than enough to eat and felt completely stuffed by dessert. Without a doubt, this is one of the best restaurants in Cape May County. Instead of taking an Uber back home, we decided to walk to our hotel and enjoy the evening. Just a couple of things to keep in mind: 1) it's BYOB, and 2) they only accept cash. These details are mentioned in the restaurant's description, but we overlooked them until the last minute.

I've dined at Cape May more times than I can count over the past five years. They offer one seating each night at 7 PM and can accommodate larger groups, but a reservation is required. We've celebrated special occasions with friends and family here, and every time, we're blown away by the experience, the quality of the food, the presentation, and the staff's attitude. While negative reviews can be valid, they often stem from unique experiences, and I believe it's even more challenging to consistently meet and exceed the expectations of returning customers. Yet, they've accomplished this every time we've visited. I've already booked two upcoming reservations and can't wait to go back. You won't be disappointed!

This was our first dining experience here, and it definitely won't be our last. Every dish was outstanding and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was both calm and enjoyable. If you find yourself in Cape May and have the chance to get a table, this restaurant is a MUST-TRY!
