I'm so glad I tried this place again!!! There aren't too many dog friendly places at lunch time with outside table service. I was alone with my dog so couldn't go inside to order first. I ordered the big EZ burger salad but substituted grilled chicken. The salad was huge with tomato, carrot, pickled onions, pickles, mushrooms, and beets. Everything was fresh. The chicken was overcooked but had a good flavor. They offered a water bowl for my dog. And gave him a treat that is locally made for them. Plus he got some of my chicken lol. I wish they would add a dog menu. I love the vibe being an old gas station. Never been inside. They have a new menu since my last visit. I want to go back and try the Curry dishes. read more

What a strange place - great idea but poor execution. It's a lot more casual than I had expected but the place literally looks like someone just threw it together. The setup is lazy and low quality. We ordered the disco fries and the chicken sandwich. Both were horrible. The disco fries were the strangest flavors thrown together. The sandwich was dry and dense. We asked for ketchup for the fries and the ketchup tasted putrid. The waiters seem to know that the food sucks and you're about to get ripped off. Never again. read more

CAPE MAY: Exit Zero Filling Station is a restaurant where their unique outdoor seating is on the site of a former gas station! Keeping the canopy of the gas station, leashed and friendly dogs are allowed to dine outside with you and it is a popular spot featuring a varied menu with an emphasis on Indian and Thai curries. They are going BYOB soon, so check before you go to see if they still have alcoholic beverages or if you should bring your own to accompany your meal. read more

The owners appear to have lost interest in the place and it shows. They sold their liquor license so there are no beers or cocktails available; probably needed the money. The patio is filthy, surrounded by dead shrubs and very faded plastic plants, the concrete floor is also dirty. The whole place needs a good power washing inside and out. We sat inside as it was hot and humid outside. It was empty. I could not believe how filthy the dining room floor is. Nothing has been scrubbed in weeks. A lot of little things show management's lack of interest . The help hid away in the kitchen and I wonder what that area looks like. We had the wedge salad and it was delicious; our waitress was excellent. Too bad, last year it was packed. read more

I feel like so many restaurants and establishments want five star reviews but don't give five star service. However, this place does! We were so impressed with their serving team, their offerings, and just the restaurant as a whole. The food was amazing! They had a lot of gluten free options. The most I've seen on one menu in a while. One of the best burgers I've ever had, GF bun included. My husband was really impressed with his whole meal as well. I think some places could really learn a thing or two from Exit Zero. This place is just super cool even if you just want to take home some goods from their store. We ordered to go because we had to catch the ferry but we did eat outside as it was such a nice day. They have these super cool trucks and vans that you can reserve online to eat in as well. read more

Really disappointing. My family always looked forward to returning to Exit Zero. The wonderful cocktails are gone, as the liquor license was recently sold. The pad Thai and the Bollywood burger were too sweet and very disappointing. It felt like the restaurant was a shell of the one that we had loved The saving grace was the Indian disco fries that were delicious. The cauliflower appetizer is also tasty. Unfortunately, those are about the only positives that I took from our last visit. read more

I decided to try this place after I did the rail biking. I love the decor inside. It is so fun! They did have outside seating as well as indoors. We chose indoors. My husband ordered the 'Hot Chick' sandwich which was a HUGE chicken sandwich. He loved it; although it was very messy. I wasn't too hungry so I ordered the 'Thai Shrimp and Coconut Soup' with a side of Naan. It was all so delicious. I could have gone for a couple more bowls of that. It was so flavorful, spicy but not overly so and just plain good. They need to sell that stuff! The service was super friendly and very quick. I would recommend and would be back. read more

This is based off our Restaurant Week experience. They seem to have stepped up their game a little. For my Prix Fixe meal, I chose the Curried Impossiballs, The Hot Chick, and the Salted Caramel Boozie Shake. I loved the Impossiballs, whatever they used for the vegan meatballs is a dead ringer for real meat. I could've used a few more meatballs though. The Hot Chick with fried chicken was delicious. It was a pasta dish with cheese, hot sauce, and fried chicken which all work well together. My friend ordered the Thai Shrimp Coconut soup which was very authentic and good. One note about the butter chicken dish. They seem to have taken the feedback about the amount of rice since the last time I've visited. Last time I complained about not enough rice and now it seems to have doubled to a perfect amount (compare the pictures!). So kudos for that. I liked the Salted Caramel shake but I felt the vodka was just a tad overpowering. I would've preferred if it was toned down a little. For our desserts, apparently only the milkshake which was one of three choices was available. We didn't get to try the beignets or the Peanut Bitter Cookie. We were offered one of their normal desserts to fill in the remainder of the prix fixe dinner. We chose Key Lime Pie. It wasn't bad but I think we would've preferred a more traditional Key Lime Pie. One more thing to note is that for some reason there was no inside seating available at all. The outdoor seating was adequate with the weather. But we unfortunately got eaten alive by mosquitos which I know the restaurant can't really do much about. So they might want to have the indoor seating available at all times. So things seem to have improved with the food since my last visit. Service was great, everything came out quickly, and our server Hope did a great job. read more

Came here for lunch on a Sunday in October. I was surprised that I'd never been here before. The eagles game was on so there were food specials for the game which as nice.

I was pretty disappointed in Exit Zero. I thought the food was VERY average and none of the food came out very hot. The service was a bit slow and a few of the items were incorrect as well. I LOVE French fries but the regular fries here were not it... but the waffle fries were good! It's a nice vibe outside but overall I stand firm on "average" food and "average" experience. read more

-2/5 service - slow, didn't check on us once, no water refills -1/5 food - all burgers were really dry and flavorless, french fries were bad - would have much preferred just going to McDonald's -most of the seats were filthy and/or uncomfortable -charged automatic 20% gratuity since I was in a party of six - normally I would give 20% but I was planning on 15% given how inattentive the service was At least it has a clever name Definitely never going back read more

Cool conception and execution. Not a huge menu but definitely enough to choose from & all dishes we ordered were really good. On a Mon night in Aug at prime dinner time we waited for about a 1/2 hour but it seemed so much less than that - we got parking in their lot and were front row for the live music as we waited. Speaking of, the music was fantastic - Camille Peruto is a talented musician. She made it easy to request songs & dedicated an anniversary song to my wife & I. Our server was attentive and very helpful. Food & drinks came out quickly even though it was a full house. They could use a few more bathrooms bc the line got long, but no other complaints. Didn't get a chance to shop but all of the merch in the shop looked really nice & the inside bar was really cool. read more

Service was fast and efficient, menu was fairly straightforward, Quirky, and shellfish heavy so limited me to something burgerish. Spouse went for pad Thai, I went for the burger bowl. The burger needed salt but the salad was pretty extensive and plenty of it. Iced tea for me and a Chardonnay for spouse. The place is set up in a former service station with campers and out side seating available. $60.00 some dollars is on the high side even for a tourist area. Worth going but won't go back at those prices. read more

The butter chicken was delicious and had tons of flavor, but conversely, the Mac and cheese was tasteless. The "cheese" sauce was basically watery milk that didn't coat any of the noodles, and the chicken added on top didn't have any seasoning on it either. The burgers/sandwiches at neighboring tables looked good. We did like the Brussels sprouts. Avoid the Mac and cheese and you may be ok. read more

Wasn't our favorite spot. The looks was cool Taking an old gas stop and converting it to an eatery. Comfortable tables and a few kitschy options for kids include dining in a train car etc. The menu has some unique not traditional aspects including burger to Indian cuisine. Not what you expect from the ambiance. We ordered one Indian dish , one chicken sandwich. The sandwich was good appeared freshly made and hot. The Indian dish was not seasoned as well as it could have been and was very soupy not thicker as expected. The dishes came out looking appetizing but we weren't too enamored. The service was good. I was expecting east pub style food judging by the look but the menu wasn't a match. read more

Let's start with the cuteness of this place and how the outside private dining areas are a wonderful place to have a fun meal with friends. The service was top notch because our server was sweet, polite and attentive. I was cold so he put me by the fireplace which I call "service with love"!!! Now let's talk food WOW...fresh, full of flavor, & delicious. The menu is as creative as the restaurant with witty names for the items served. We will definitely visit AGAIN :) read more

Every year, in which we vacation in Cape May, we make it a point to stop in at Exit Zero Filling Station for low key dinner. This year we found the food quality seriously lacking, far below their past food quality standard. We had an Americana burger, two orders of build your own Mac n cheese, and a hot chick sandwich. The chicken was soggy, not crisp, with an underwhelming seasoning mix. The burger was essentially a very average burger. The fries used to be waffle fries. Now? Basic ol' average fries. And the Mac n cheese was literally penne pasta with a light, milky semi-cheese-ish coating. Extremely lame, low effort, and poor flavor. This was so disappointing. We've been coming here for many years, including a stop in March of 2020, during the Pandemic, where the restaurant provided mini tents allowing isolation from other customers. Up until this year the food has been outstanding. Flavorful, expertly prepared, with a distinct set of cuisine varieties. Now? There is nothing to recommend it. If you are looking for a burger or simple comfort food I suggest looking elsewhere. What a pity. PS - I have since learned that the owner is selling the restaurant and contents, to focus on his Exit Zero magazine publishing. We'll have to see who purchases the restaurant and what they do with it. read more

Food was good but we had seagulls, a ton of fat flies & insects around our table the entire time. It was so annoying. Not worth it. Would not go again. read more

I don't think it is possible to love this place more. Where do I begin? First, the vibe, the energy, the spirit.... everyone is happy. From the staff to the clients, everyone is smiling, laughing, living their best lives. Everyone is talking to everyone else - whether they came with those people or just made a friend at the bar while waiting for a table, such a happy place to be. The drinks? Top-notch craft cocktails. The difficult question will be what do I order first? The food -is equally amazing. My gentleman friend and I are vegan and there are plenty of options here to keep everyone happy. The service was fast and as I said, friendly. Maybe it is because everyone is on vacation, perhaps it is the fresh salty air that lulled everyone into a good mood; but whatever it was I want more of it. read more

This place has taken a step back from prior years. Service was prompt but server was cold and unfriendly. Food was well prepared but we felt rushed in and out. Would love to see Lobster back on the menu as an option to some of the chicken dishes. Overall a good restaurant that should not rest on its past reputation. read more

Cute establishment, but not likely to recommend for service or cost. We had to ask for silverware after our food was delivered, got a dirty side plate and never got a refill on our water. $80 for two meals and one beer is flat out tourist tax. They need to cut their portions and prices by half. Having an $18 kid's menu item is laughable. Lobster curry at $35 should have a whole lobster served in it - not just a claw. Both curry dishes (butter chicken and lobster) were more of a soupy broth than a curry consistency. Naan tasted store bought. If you're visiting from out of town, I'd suggest trying somewhere else. Mad Batter and The Eat Well were both better. read more

We came to eat here at the end of August. The atmosphere was very nice. It had outdoor seating with charming decor. We came at opening time on a Monday, and live music was being setup. Our selection was Indian Disco Fries, Brussels Sprouts, and Bang Bang Chicken & Shrimp. The fries were pretty good. I liked the mild curry flavor paired with the creamy goat cheese on top of crispy waffle fries. The Brussel Sprouts were great! They were crispy and a bit sweet. We weren't big fans of the curry. It was okay, but perhaps a bit too mild and toned down for our taste. The chicken and shrimp were also a bit overcooked. Overall, it was a pleasure eating here, and I'd come back again. read more

Food: food was great. We started with the Indian disco fries. They were very good. For our mains we had butter chicken, the Christmas curry and the Bollywood burger. Portions were large and we were all stuffed. We got the naan too but didn't really need it. We didn't know it was an extra $4 each. Thought that was a bit steep for a piece of naan. Service: service was pretty good. It took a while for our server to get to us initially but I think he had a lot of tables. Other: seating is outside. If you go at night, make sure to bring bug spray. Also we were sitting at the edge of the dining area near a planter. Whenever staff went by with a cup with ice/liquid they dumped it in the planter. It got to be annoying as it was noisy and right next to us. read more

It's nicely decorated inside and outside. However the wait was a bit long (which isn't that big of a deal) but it wasn't that busy inside either. We also waited over 30 min for food that came cold. The only decent things were the hot chick and the chicken pekora. The chicken is well fried and has a good flavor. The bang bang chicken and shrimp curry came watery and unseasoned. Out waitress was nice enough to get that changed out for us to the butter chicken but it wasn't that much better. The lobster curry was a bit better, but it is very heavy and sweet and there was barely any lobster in it. The cauliflower bites were also overly fried. read more

This idea and vibe of the Exit Zero Filling Station is super cool and refreshing. I think the idea of reusing a place like this is so unique and creative. The day we went was even more unique since there was a girl performing live music by the center station. Unfortunately, I wasn't as crazy about the food here. We tried one of the burgers, which retrospectively was probably the wrong thing to order here. The menu had more creative options that I regret not trying, but I had come here craving a burger which I would not recommend again. We also tried the hot chick sandwich, which had a nice crunch and a special salad with watermelon and feta. The salad was probably my favorite thing we tried besides the fries with the above sandwiches. Service here was friendly. I think I'd be interested in returning here soon, but next time I'm definitely trying the more interesting menu options. read more

The food here is amazing and the vibe was great. Local musicians play here often. I really wish the portions were smaller though and the prices were a little less. I'd gladly take a half portion of the curry for $20 instead of the insanely large portion for $30. We had leftovers of all dishes. The Buffalo cauliflower was so tasty with the homemade bleu cheese. The Thai Lobster curry was so unique and delicious. Pad Thai was my least favorite (pretty salty and not memorable, tasted similar to our local take out spot). read more

What a great surprise for Cape May. Stumbled across this place on the way to Sunset breach. I though it would be just another regular burger place but was way wrong. Some in my group ordered the burger and fried chicken sandwich. Both were moist and perfect portions. What I really enjoyed the most was the curry chicken dish. This wouldn't be my first choice at a burger joint in Cape May, but after it was recommended I gave it a try. It was seriously better than I've had in some places in nyc. I would definitely come back and probably try another Indian inspired item. read more

So sorry to post this. Thursday $5. Burger day was not up to last years fare. The server was very nice . Ordered a certain beer so did my friend , they didn't have them . Two major brands . We both ordered medium rare all pink in middle. Burgers were well done black crust around the edges , my bun had dried cheese on the bottom . Were they stacked on the grill and reheated? Looked that way. Nope can't recommend Burger Thursday anymore. read more

Pakora Chicken served with a mint crema sauce and a sticky thai sauce, a very nice appetizer. Good crunch to it, and the dipping sauces were nice. Crispy Wings with an ink black curry sauce (advertised as "devilishly spicy" but I don't think it was spicy and can be eaten by anyone that can handle black pepper). Food was good, ambiance and theme were better. Drinks are tasty as well. read more

3 stars for the food 5 stars for the pet pampering Exit Zero Filling Station food is just okay. We ordered a burger (on the dry side), chicken wings (pricey for the amount you are given) and butter chicken (or attempt at butter chicken). Nothing to write home about. We were, however, very impressed with the canine cuisine. We ordered a beef patty and would have ordered a dog ice cream if it hadn't been sold out. Our pup was given fresh water refills multiple times along with some lovein' from our server. We will probably go back just based on how much our pup loved the experience. read more

A MUST when visiting Cape May. Everything on the menu was reasonably priced, the portions matched the price (don't see that often these days), the menu options are vegan friendly, and the service is great even when busy (we visited the weekend after Memorial Day weekend). We got our food within 15-20 minutes of ordering. You can see my order but my wife got the Impossible Burger and fries. She loved it and said it was prepared just right. My order was SO GOOD I forced myself to save some for work the next day. My drink was on point! Lastly the ambiance was perfect summer time almost old time shake shack. This will be a definite stop for us every time we visit going forward and I suggest you all do the same! read more

A great first visit to Exit Zero, and it won't be our last! When we got there it was pretty empty and we hate being the only ones in the dining area, but a Monday night is April is not prime time. We started with water and a cocktail, then we pondered our menu, so many choices. Once we got our act together we ordered, Pad Thai for me and the hot chick for my partner. After an appropriate wait, our food arrived piping hot. The Pad Thai was a unique recipe, very different that what I am accustomed to, but absolutely delish nonetheless. Lots of shrimp and chicken, great noodles in almost a gravy with sprouts and scallions, a little heat, a flavorful concoction indeed. My partners hot chick sandwich was also very, very good, hot, fresh and flavorful, served with a cute little basket of waffle fries. We took home some peanut butter pie for later in the evening and it was also excellent. Our server Chris was fabulous, attentive, personable, and fun to chat with. The space is so creative, it is very obvious that the owner, Jack put a lot of care into the design, menus and overall vibe with great music streaming. I particularly liked the wine choices, every bottle was the same price at $10 a glass and $30 a bottle, it really cuts thru the confusion. Everything about Exit Zero is interesting and Uber creative, we enjoyed the vibe and incredibly friendly service. read more

Coming from centeral jersey one loves a little seasoning type of meal instead of bland. Menu and ambiance attracted me. Service was great, I asked for soda and it literally tasted like Diet Coke with extra ice. Appetizers was great : Brussel sprout and sunflower something. Dinner I wanted pad Thai with chicken not shrimp instead I got curry chicken in pad Thai. I understand there is a dish on menu That is curry chicken but that can't be dumped in pad Thai .... Not a good combo plus main course cost $30 for not having chicken that enhances the pad Thai gravy. Customers did mention the ambiance, drinks and apps are good. I wouldn't take chance on main course. Please reserve ahead of visit for their cute transportation setting ambiance experience! read more

This was by and far the best restaurant we ate at in the Cape May area. My only regret is that we didn't come here sooner and eat here multiple times on our trip. Every other food place nearby was mediocre in comparison. I was starving when we arrived at 12pm on Memorial Day Monday. We ordered the brussels sprouts as an appetizer. These came out fast and were tasty and moreish. My husband got the burger which was amazing. It was served with waffle fries on the side which were well-cooked, not overly oily. My seafood pot pie was heavy but delicious. It had a crisp puff pastry filled with seafood and vegetables in a creamy sauce. It was a delicious comfort meal. Both outdoor and indoor seating were available. Service was extremely friendly and efficient. Would highly recommend eating at this place if you're near Cape May. read more
