This place is descent and I will certainly revisit. The food is not bad. The lobster Mac and cheese had descent sized lobster bits! The pad Thai was too sweet, I think if it was less sweet and more spicy it would be great. The fries were good too, if it came out hot. read more

This place has so much personality--I have never been to a restaurant that was also a gas station! We came for dinner and it was a really fun experience. The handlettering and chalkboard look was really cute, it even extends to the bathroom! I enjoyed the live music throughout the night while trying out their menu they just updated apparently. We got the cauliflower bites with sticky Thai sauce and it was delicious to start our meal! The server and one of the musicians raves about their new Bangkok Noodles and I was really glad I tried it. The presentation was beautiful, it was a good balance of textures and flavors, and had a nice kick without it being too much. These were my favorites from the meal! We also ordered the Hot Chick Sandwich and waffle fries which were good, and zucchini fries were just okay. Our service was great and I felt really special on my birthday even though they didn't know we were celebrating till the end of the meal! read more

Food was tasty I ordered salmon burger on a brioche bun. My husband ordered an Americana burger We had to wait 15 minutes for a table but overall the food was good read more

I was a little suspicious of this place because the menu brings together so many random cuisines (American, Thai, Indian...) but I was pleasantly surprised. The gas station theme of the restaurant is fun, with the option of eating outdoor next to fake gas pumps or in a camper. We chose indoor with live music. With the music plus the decoration, it had the vibe of relaxing in someone's backyard with good drinks and good food. I got the spicy chicken sandwich, which was hands-down one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had in my life. I wanted to get more food from them later on during my stay in Cape May but, alas, they don't do takeout (at least they weren't in May 2021). Will definitely go back the next time I'm in Cape May read more

Have drive past many times on the way to the lighthouse and sunset beach. Decided to stop for a early dinner. Party of 7 wait was about 20 minutes. You can bring a leashed well behaved dog as well for the dog lovers! Did take some Time for the food to come out but it was expected for how busy it was. Live music is always a plus and the musicians even took requests and interacted with the crowd. Several games are set up for the diners as well as the waiting parties to be seated to be feed. Will come back again. Food was good. Average was about $20 for the burgers $26 for the ramen and $2.50 for soda and basic drinks. They also serve alcohol and some very tasty mixes. read more

I haven't heard live music in over a year! Great night having burgers outside at this unique restaurant/gas station. I had the guacamole burger-it was moist but really no flavor at all. The guacamole was supposed to be a little spicy but it had zero flavor. Waffle fries were crunchy and delicious. Giving 4 stars because if the live music and fun atmosphere. read more

I can't believe this place has good reviews. It was awful. The waffle fries looked amazing but came out cold & stale. The wedge salad was completely inedible. There was a mountain of dressing soaking it unlike anything I've ever seen & I always order wedge salad. The cauliflower bites tasted as stale as the fries. The Brussels sprouts were edible & the chopper salad was fine, but overall it was a disappointing experience. read more

We had such an amazing experience here. We booked their newest solo dining experience, the Airstream Bubble, for Sunday brunch. We were not disappointed! This experience was so cool. We had our own private dining experience in the Bubble for an hour and a half. This included a heated area with a record player! First, the service is super friendly and attentive. We constantly had different waiters/waitresses checking on us to make sure everything was okay. Second, their brunch food was to die for! We got cinnamon pear mimosas which were great, and I ended up getting the huevos rancheros which was super fresh and yummy. It definitely did not disappoint! Really, the star of the show here was experiencing the bubble. Such a cool experience and I had so many people reach out to me about where this was after posting about it on social media! Highly recommend. read more

Fun and energetic atmosphere with real functioning gas pumps! Seriously order some drinks and enjoy some food alongside some peeps stopping by to get some gas. Funky indeed. I ordered to go - burgers, fries and salads - all fresh and yummy. Oh and some booze. I am still in shock about the working gas pump. Anyway - live music was playing as guests enjoyed their meals. Worth a stop and staying for the meal plus filler up (don't drink and drive please). Enjoy! read more

Amazing variety of menu options that worked well for the carnivores, vegan, vegetarian in our large family. The service was attentive and fast, the bartender nailed the drinks and the food was fantastic. Outdoor covered seating options and games helped pass the time for the kids during the very short wait for a table. Beyond that, I forgot my sunglasses on the table, left town the next day, and they shipped them to my home without hesitation. This is our new go-to dinner spot during the annual cape may family vacation. Could not ask for a better overall experience. read more

The service was good, but the food was clearly some kind of price gouging tourist trap. I ordered a curry bowl with naan, and the vegeatables were still wet from probably being reheated frozen. Barely any flavor. Just ingredients thrown together. The rice was undercooked and clumpy. The pieces of chicken were still dry and flavorless on the inside, so none of this dish was cooked together for more than a few minutes. And the "naan" was just store brand frozen pita bread with last minute char marks burned onto it. The server was quick to refund the price of the naan, and didn't seem phased that I thought it was bad. I could get a comparable meal from a microwave TV dinner, and pay way less for the disappointment. I get the business model here - it's fast food for three times the price - but at least I go back to fast food sometimes. This place caught me once, and that's one time too many. read more

American burger was overall bland, and I asked for medium and got well done. Bangkok noodle curry was very good but not appreciably better than curry elsewhere for half the price. Would not order again anywhere near what they charge. Takes away the glory of their claims to how great it is. Sorry but negative 1.5 stars for that. Peanut butter pie is not made in house, but at a local bakery. It is good, but needs a balancing amount of chocolate, IMO. Very sugary. Prices extremely high for the quality. Curry was $26!!!!! That lowers my value rating to 2.5 stars. Honestly I'm rounding my star rating up to give them another chance, but I got a MUCH better burger at 5 West, and the curry price is way unjustified. (Visited very early June 2020, just when NJ beaches opened to vacationers during COVID.) read more

Heard good things about this place so we decided to give it a try on our most recent visit to Cape May. This was during COVID and Christmas time, so they had turned the outside into outdoor dining as indoor dining was limited. The outdoors was beautifully decorated and they even had fake snow blowing around. We were fortunate enough to grab an indoor table, which was also nicely decorated with lights strung around the eating area. We found the variety of the menu somewhat limited. They have burgers and a few sandwiches and then quite a bit of Curry dishes. We all ended up getting burgers, which were decent but nothing to shout home about. We did really enjoy the crisp waffle fries! Service was a bit slow and we had to ask for silverware and napkins and then with that, they didn't bring out enough napkins for the table. Took a little bit to get refills and our check at the end. read more

Absolutely ago to spot. The food, the ambience, the staff all of it just makes a great experience. We stopped by here on our way from Sunset Beach. I had the American burger and she had a chicken sandwich, along with the Mojito margarita. And I must say it's dog friendly. And I now know whenever I return to Cape May I will eat here. read more

This being my first time here, I asked the server for their recommendation, and ended up with the bang bang chicken and shrimp. The curry was hearty and well-portioned, with lots of coconut milk and subtle spices. Normally this would be too bland for me, but I was dehydrated after a day of travel and I didn't want anything too spicy or irritating and this was perfect. Outdoor seating is available with live music, but it looked pretty packed (on a Wednesday night!) so I decided to not take any chances and ordered takeout to eat in my Airbnb. The meal was well-packaged and still warm by the time I got back. read more

Great lunch stop on border of Cape may and west Cape may. Opened in August, everything looks brand new. We were seated right away. The mint chocolate chip shake came out quickly. Flavor was good, but it was very thin, not like an ice cream shake. Bf got the Rudy dog, which he loved. A generously sized hot dog with bacon, cheddar, peppers and salsa, served with amazing waffle fries! I got the chopper which was a good sized salad with fixings. I didn't notice until later that they forgot the mozz...I tried both dressings on the side and really liked the blue cheese. Food came out a bit slow, but our server was very friendly and attentive. Slightly strange menus...either brunch or dinner, so no curry at brunch. read more

Stopped by looking for clean restrooms and what a quaint place! The restaurant was closed and masks required during COVID19 pandemic. I was happy browsing the shop. It was well kept, with many unique odds and ends. The t shirts are made really well and I ended up buying one with a whale design on it. The material is perfect, light, airy and perfection! Finally did get around to using their restrooms which were beautiful, and sparkling clean! The lady working the cash register was awesome too! I'll be back. If we return driving our gasoline car we will be happy to patronize this station. Stop by and look around, it's worth a stop. read more

I have to say that this place has very good food . I love the concept of the restaurant being a three in one ( gas station , gift shop , and restaurant ). All the seating was outside due to covid ,. But was perfectly six feet apart. Everything was clean. Live music was also played and took requests . The server was ok . Quick and prompt The drink I had was a mango mule and it was very good . Just wish I could taste a bit of mango . Appetizer was the shrimp coconut soup and my entree was the Thai lobster curry . Now I really do not like mushrooms ( and there is no taking out ingredients ), but for a person who hates mushrooms , they were cooked really well xD the broth and curry were very flavorfull and the rice was really soft and seasoned correctly . Dessert was the peanut butter pie and it taste like your eating a peanut butter cup. Super tasty . With the concept being unique , the food being good , and great atmosphere I would totally recommend this place . read more

This place has an amazing vibe! So cool What they did with an old gas station! Fantastic drinks and vegan options! Hubby enjoyed his seafood. We came on a Saturday and dined outside. Games for the kids (big and little) like cornhole and giant tic tac toe. Vintage airstreams which were so cool to check out. Definitely try this place out! We will definitely be back! read more

This place was awesome! I'm gluten free and dairy free, so I love it when places have gluten free buns and well marked menus. I really appreciate that. The spacing in Aug 2020 was awesome, outside in the filling station, so it's really unique and well spread out. The service was great and fun. The food was seriously great. The best burger, ever. And there was even a live band outside. super fun. read more

My family and I have been customers here for a few years (we used to go before they were located at their current location) and it never disappoints! If you love Indian and Thai food, this is a must do on your vacation in Cape May! They also have great burgers, sandwiches, and Mac and cheese for less adventurous eaters. My favorite dishes are the cauliflower bites (one of my favorite appetizers EVER), the loaded tater tots appetizer, Thai lobster curry, bang bang chicken and shrimp curry, and the pad Thai noodles. The depth of flavor in each dish is incredible and is why I keep coming back here! Their summer watermelon cocktail is also great if you love a fruity and spicy cocktail! Because of COVID, they added outdoor seating and made their parking lot into a tiki bar. It is such a fun atmosphere and the tables are accurately distanced from each other. All the workers were wearing masks and were so friendly. They have live music on the weekends too! If you are vacationing down the shore this summer, you have to try Exit Zero! read more

Definitely not worth what i paid. 2 children under 3 and 2 adults and the bill was $100 plus tip. And food was mediocre at best. Not worth what they charge. Out waiter was ok. But the hostess was horrible. Idk if she hates her job or hates people but she should work in a cubicle away from people. Definitely in the wrong profession McKenzie (the hostess) read more

I'm not sure how so many good restaurants can be in Cape May, but Exit Zero Filling Station just got added to my list. We asked to be seated in the shade as it was rather sunny and hot, and the hostess was very accommodating. I had read the menu before I got there, but with it's very diverse food choices, it was still hard to make a decision. Because of the unusual choice of Thai food at what is best described as a diner, we decided to try a couple of the dishes and split them. We got the Thai Lobster and Bangkok Noodles. Both were incredible. The spice levels were perfect. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the fresh vegetables gave it a nice crunch. The Thai Lobster had a wonderful sauce and the rice just soaked up the flavor. We also had some nice cocktails. My wife had the cuke and I had the wicked watermelon. Both were very tasty and refreshing on the hot day. I must say that I won't base my rating on atmosphere amid the pandemic as I'm sure it's hard for certain places to deal with the outdoor restrictions. That being said, despite being near the gas station, they did a great job of creating a nice outside space and shielding the customers from the station. The only reason I didn't rate 5 stars was that the service was a little slow, although friendly, which seemed odd given the amount of people they seemed to have working there and the fact that it wasn't that crowded. One final note. They responded to the allergy question I had sent them on FB messenger rather quickly and it helped make our food decision. read more

Went here on Valentines for dinner. Heard about it from TV. They had an awesome band! I wish I paid more attention to see what days they are back! Back to the food...I have to say that I have been to 58 restaurants that have been in Diners Drive Ins and Dives...if this place gets on the show, they'd be too 10 easy! We wanted to be sure to order a lot to try it all out. For appetizers we ordered the Mega Tots and Cauliflower bits in sticky Thai sauce. Both were amazing! Both came out crispy and full of flavor! For main course we ordered the Holy Guacamole burger and a Very Christmas Curry with naan. We eat Thai food and hamburgers on a regular basis, this is some of the best! The amount of flavors in the curry is hard to explain and I can't wait to eat my left overs! The burger was juicy and one of the best I've ever had! You really have to go here if you have a chance! It is worth the drive! read more

Great out door area, but 3 stars for the service. Whenever I'm here I'm being rushed out!! The last time I still had a mostly full beer and our waitress asked how much longer we planned to "hangout". Due to the manager making a comment that we were "there a while". It was a little over 1 hour, we ordered food and beer...and were enjoying the live music. This was the 2nd time it's happened to me and I've had other friends say they have had the exact same experience. I've worked in the food industry and I'm always respectful of table turnover, but there were multiple tables open and no line of people waiting for tables. Customers aren't "hanging out", they're there to enjoy your food, drink, and atmosphere. read more

Mumbai Curry- 2.8/5 First of all, this had no business being $28. You get a small island of basmati rice surrounded by the curry. I've had plenty of curries and this wasn't it, fam. Needed to be significantly more salty and required more distinct flavors that curries generally provide. The chicken, when found because there was hardly any, was bone dry and crumbled to dust in my mouth. Quite the accomplishment as it was submerged in liquid. Also spotted was about a 3 inch, rock hard sweet potato. They brag about their curries and it takes up the entire middle of their menu, but I'd take a step back and work on it a bit. The hot chicken sandwich was a different story... 4.4/5 The seasoning, spice, breading, everything worked so well here. I found myself licking my fingers and plate. I wish the chicken filled the bun better- it was on the smaller side. And the waffle fries were perfect. Savored each bite. Otherwise, the place is really cool. Gas station turned restaurant. They served Cape May Brewing Co draft beers, servers were friendly and attentive, and they had awesome little trailers converted to private dining tables. If you're in town I'd recommend stopping by, just curb your excitement if you try the curry. Maybe I got a bad batch? read more

Atmosphere was incredible! My husband and I took a mini getaway with our 3years son. He had a wonderful time playing inside the airstream. FOOD: HORRIBLE! Lo mein was extremely salty! Ramen was cream based, wouldn't say it was in a broth. The bang bang chicken and shrimp was super creamy. Too much of the wrong stuff that weighted down and ruined flavors read more

We were so looking forward to dining here. Such a great idea. The restaurant was quiet @ 4 pm. We kept being passed from one member of staff to another before we were eventually seated. Cute setting and a lovely warm fire to greet us. Dippy waiter took our order and just didn't listen. We both had overcooked burgers. The meat was poor and dry. Like it had been frozen and defrosted in the microwave. I ordered the Bollywood burger. Couldn't find the bharji. Loads of onions that appeared to be drowned in curry powder mayo. Will not be back. Exit zero conjured up such fun and hope. No one was playing tonight. Just slamming plates of food down on the table. Shame. Plenty of establishments to spend my $$ in elsewhere. read more

I wanted to give this place five stars, I really did, but I have my reasons why I can't, which I'll detail below. We had come here earlier in the day to buy gas for the car. A very friendly girl told us all about how the gas station transforms and comes alive after 6pm for dinner outside, with live music, and great food & drink. We were sold and decided to come back. Well, sure enough, we came back at 6pm, and the place was already hopping. We put our name on the list, for my family of four. They have a nice little waiting area with chairs, and some games to keep the kids occupied. You can also walk up to the bar and order drinks while you wait. I was blown away by the concept and the ambiance. This was super cool to be outside, at a gas station, with music, and everyone seemingly having fun. The first issue I had was simply getting drinks. I was second in line when I walked up, but didn't get anyone to take my order for a solid 10 minutes. Finally, a woman took my order and said she'd bring me the drinks. All I ordered was a wine and one mixed drink. It took another 20 minutes for the drinks to come out. Way too long for a simple order. By the time we got our drinks, we were also seated a four top table. This is where the second issue occurred. It seemed as though our server wanted almost nothing to do with us. It took about 15 minutes after we were seated to be acknowledged by our server. He came over and got drink orders for our kids. We weren't quite done with our drinks that we got during our wait. This gave us an opportunity to look over the menu (on our phones). The menu here is pretty diverse, which is why I was drawn to this place. Lots of standard stuff, burgers, chicken, & seafood, but also some Thai food and a variety of curries. I love food diversity in a restaurant. My son ordered the chicken fingers, my wife the chicken sandwich, my daughter the salmon, and myself, I got the Pad Thai with Shrimp & Chicken. At this point, my wife and I were done with our drinks that we got during our wait for a table and we were ready for another round.....we were going to switch it up to just a couple beers. However, our server...nowhere to be found. After five minutes, I just decided to walk up to the outside bar and get the drinks myself. Up at the bar, I saw my server, but he just ignored me. I would have been happy to add the drinks to my bill, but he seemed to be distracted. By the way, it took five minutes to order two canned beers from the bar, again, why? When I got back to the table, the food had arrived. However, the table had never been properly set with utensils, so we asked for utensils. This took a lot longer than it should have, but at least the food stayed hot. Speaking of the food, this is where this place is a bright spot, because all the food was sensational. My wife's chicken sandwich was probably the highlight. My Pad Thai was huge, with big pieces of shrimp and chicken in there.....but it could have used a bit more protein given the amount of noodles I was given. My kid's meals were good as well. Ok, so now we're done with our food, and once again, no server to be found. My wife and kids got tired of waiting and decided to walk over to the ice cream shop across the street. I waited another five minutes, when finally our server showed up. I just gave him the credit card and asked him to run it no matter the bill so I could just get out of there and reunite with the family. So while I loved the concept and the food, the service needs a bit of a kick in the ass, or at least our server does. This doesn't negate the fact that the bar area is also very slow. I did notice that other servers were working their butts off, and perhaps my guy was a bit overwhelmed, I don't know, but that was MY experience. All in all, i still think the concept is super cool, and I would come back here again in a heartbeat. read more

We stopped tonight to give this place a try. It is a very cool little place. But, the service is slow. They looked busy, but had plenty of indoor & outdoor tables open. It could have been a simple staffing issue and/or the Holiday Weekend. 45 minutes wait time for an outdoor sit down dining at dinnertime. Take-out Service was temporarily closed, may have been a kitchen issue. Overall the place looks great, seems to have a cool atmosphere. Has a lot of potential, may have just caught an off day. read more

So great to find a restaurant that is both kid and dog friendly - at least, outside. We went on a Monday night, and it was hopping. We got a table outside after about a 10 minute wait, which went by fast given they had live music. There were a bunch of families with kids and a couple dogs (the restaurant even has a dog menu!). We had our baby in a stroller, which we just pulled up to the table. They have some yard games and space beyond the tables where kids can run around without disrupting the tables. I ordered the butter chicken and naan, which were good though definitely not the best I've ever had. Good for pub fare, though! My partner had the spicy chicken sandwich, which was great. We both had local beers on tap. Overall, a very chill, pleasant experience. read more

Is it weird that it is a gas station? Yes! Is it weird they are serving curry in a beach resort town? Yes! Is it weird that curry and French fries are a dish on the menu? Yes! Is it a hipster vibe and crowd? Yes! All the more reason to go! Just GO! Plus the owner is Scottish, and so are we.. so love to support you! This food is not to be missed, only thing I beg you for is a few dishes without sugar and we will be back regularly! So many people trying to cut the sugar and the flavor of your curry would be even better without the additional sugar please! Someone call Diner, Drive-in and Dives.. this place should be on it! read more

Disappointment! Hostess was awful! No smile! No greeting! She hates her job! Service was awful!! We waited 20 min to order and that's cuz we asked for a waitress. It took 1 Hr 10 min to get our food. Waitress was friendly and good was good. read more

Great outdoor venue that has live music and a vibe that will get you in the middle to enjoy your beach vacation. The wait time can be long but the atmosphere and drinks are worth the wait. The food will be enjoyed by the whole family. Wings are were a hit but the cauliflower could have been crispier. The ramen soup was on the sweet side and could have used some more heat to balance the dish. Burgers and chicken sandwich were perfect. Pad Thai was good for a stir fried noodle dish but not your typical pad Thai. Milk shake was delicious. read more

Vibes- live music was fire! Food- was amazing! Crispy sticky Thai wings were very tasty and perfectly cooked. The Americano burger was tasty and cooked exactly how I asked. The Hot Chick was also very tasty and the perfect mix of flavor and spice! The drinks were pretty- we had the wicked watermelon, mango mule, and antifreeze. I would highly recommend the wicked watermelon thoughhhh. Pricey though so be warned! read more

Bri and Rickey were behind the bar and made our experience more than impeccable. They were fun, friendly, goofy, informative, and made our hour dinner trip into a three hour fun evening night out. We were planning on having dinner and a drink but it turned into more than just a few drinks out. Overall just a great environment and I totally recommend the bar! Also. We got the ramen and it's the best meal I've ever had, 10/10. read more

So to start off we came at opening and was a tad worried there seemed to be a staffing issue that cause long waits for service. The water we had worked over time and was amazing really doing his best. So I was apprehensive of the food due to those events. Regardless of all that going on the food was great. I will say the lemon pepper wings are very salty. I think they need a sauce because of that. The real star was the Bollywood burger. It turned out to be one of my husbands favorite meals of our trip. Highly recommend it. I would definitely go back to try more of the menu items when I'm in the area again. read more

We kept hearing and reading rave reviews for Exit Zero Filling Station and my family (husband and three teenagers/young adults) kept saying "there's no way a place in Cape May that serves burgers and Indian/Thai food can be that good." Well, Exit Zero proved them wrong! We arrived at 6:30pm on a Friday night expecting to wait for a long time. We were told it would be a 35 minute wait and fortunately it was a mild evening with a slight breeze. They had groupings of chairs set up on the perimeter of the property where we could sit and a waitstaff came and took our drink orders while we waited. By the time I made a quick trip to their retail store (only four people allowed in at a time under COVID), my family had been seated at a table (well spaced away from other tables) with barely a wait. We ordered appetizers: mega tots and sticky Thai chicken wings. Who knew tater tots with a fried egg, grilled jalapeños, goat cheese, bacon, and cheddar sauce would be so amazing! We gobbled those tater tots up in no time. The chicken wings were also delicious - not as good as the best Korean fried chicken wings we've had but still excellent. For dinner, the kids ordered burgers and waffle fries, and thought they were some of the best burgers they'd had in a long time. My husband ordered the blackened salmon sandwich which he enjoyed. I ordered the butter chicken pot pie - and had no idea what to expect. What arrived was a sizable portion (much larger than what you might receive in an Indian restaurant when you order chicken tikka masala) with a puff pastry square on top. The puff pastry was delicious and insufficient to soak up all the delicious sauce so we ordered some naan to help us finish the dish. Even with the naan, everyone was so full from their meal that we couldn't eat up the rest of the butter chicken and had to leave some behind (we were checking out of our airbnb). The kids ordered the peanut butter pie for dessert and said it was just okay. But overall, we will put Exit Zero at the top of our list for our Cape May dining on our future trips! read more
