    turkey and brie sandwich w/ house salad and fries
    Jason M.

    When researching eateries to try while I was in Cape May, George's Place came up on many a list of top places to try. The menu looked like it had some solid dishes, and I head they were featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives - so I thought it was worth checking out. I had just settled into my hotel room and was looking for lunch, so off I went. There are two George's - the original one here on Beach Ave and a second location off the Washington Mall. The restaurant is owned by a group that operates several eateries and event companies in Cape May and the greater Jersey Shore area. I think I came after the lunch crowd, as there were a few tables open when I arrived. Soon after my server asked for my beverage order - I asked for a sparkling water with lime, but was told they don't have sparkling water - or limes. I found that odd to be honest, but fine - a water and lemon sufficed. Soon after, though, I saw another table with a bottle of Pellegrino - so did they serve sparkling water or not? Did I need to be more specific in my request? I know this place is BOYB but does that include sparkling water? So many questions. Really though, no limes? Anyway, the menu wasn't too large and contained a large selection of Greek items. I decided to go with the turkey and brie sandwich, which came on sourdough and served with a house salad and fries. The salad and fries were good - the salad had lots of components/textures in it and the fries were typical Greek-style sliced potatoes. The sandwich was a disappointment - specifically the fact that the turkey was cold-cut style which in my opinion really downgraded the sandwich. It would have been nicer to see sliced turkey breast, or at least something that wasn't so processed. Service was fine, they were friendly enough. Overall though, I don't understand the hype of this place. Maybe I ordered the wrong item, but even if this is a no-frills beach eatery I thought they could have done better; I don't think seltzer, limes or sliced turkey are things reserved for higher-end establishments. If I ever return to Cape May I would likely bypass this spot.

    Excellent service, delicious food, and a wonderful value! You get a fresh salad, fries, and a top notch gyro lunch for $12. What a value!! Comes with an extra side of tzatziki sauce

    Havarti panini

    I could eat here every day the food is just that good and consistent. This is my favorite location (there are several other George's places in the area). I've liked everything I've ever ordered from here but the Havarti panini is my favorite by far. I pair it with the unsweetened raspberry lemonade. The hummus is another must. I could eat it by itself (and I definitely have when I've run out of cucumbers ). Their sandwiches come with a side salad and French fries, both which are delicious. The salad is not your typical boring side salad which I love. This is the smallest location and since it's right by the beach, parking can be challenging. Inside it can get very crowded. They have mostly booth seating and it's cash only. There is an atm next door they suggest if you don't have cash. The portions are great for the price, especially how many places charge tourist prices in the area. Love love love George's on Beach Avenue!!!

    Lots of good food!

    My wife and I ate here for our final meal during a recent Cape May trip. Service was prompt and professional. Really enjoyed the pancakes, eggs, bacon, and toast meal. Their potatoes had great texture. Good location on Beach Avenue. Not a huge fan of cash only but it was worth it.

    Fantastic spot, we went for breakfast, got one of the last tables before the wait started. I had the lemoncello French toast and my husband and omelet. Very fresh, and tasted great! It was a little noisy, but fine. Service was fantastic, great coffee!

    Wow this place is a hidden gem! The place is small and older but don't let that turn you away. First of all the prices are responsible especially since the portion sizes are huge! It is cash only so make sure you bring cash. I had the gyro which was delicious, it was large. I loved the potato chips that it came with. My husband had the breakfast quesadilla which was good. We will definitely be back. We are going to wildwood this summer and I saw that they have a location there which I look forward to trying.

    We just went last week with my husband, 2 kids and sister. Making a reservation was easy. The place is by beach avenue its quite small but we fit ok at the booth. I am not sure though how they will accommodate a party over 4 adults if they want to be seated together. The yelp menu pictures show there was a choice for burgers but when we were there for dinner it wasn't in the menu. Perhaps it was a lunch menu and i didn't notice. Dinner menu did not have any choices for kids so even though we ordered a variety to see if the kids would like any of them, they were not interested and ended up eating the pita and a little bit of the potato wedges . All in all the food we ordered was great. My husband ordered a sample of meats platter, my sister ordered the salmon and I ordered the braised beef, then a side of pita and hummus. All dishes were delectable and we didn't have to take anything home. I just hope they add a kids menu perhaps...

    Everything! Food is delicious. Service is outstanding. Ambiance is just what anyone would love.read more

    I want to preface this by saying that for well over 20 years I have owned in the crest. I have been…read moreto this restaurant at least 10 to 15X since it has opened. Didnt go last summer. Was very much looking forward to celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary having raved to our friends how wonderful the food is at Santorini: their fresh, fish waxed poetic over the dish of feta&olives we while we decide what to order. Our waitress Shay, who was absolutely lovely, greeted us warmly. She offered us several choices of water & I chose the still. Not realizing at the time it was $7.95. A bit steep for water but my fault for not checking. I asked her if we could get a dish with feta cheese & olives. She went back to fetch our drinks, came back to say sorry no feta & olives are not available. They are only on the happy hour menu & can only be eaten at the bar. That seems just a bit silly as we were willing to pay for them. I didn't need a happy hour price, but that was the 1st refusal. We had questions on the menu many of their entrées either come over linguine or risotto. The risotto is the one thing that I have had there in the past that I did not care for. it is way too al dente for me. I was very much interested in what they called an asian sea bass special that came over linguine. I didn't want linguine I'm not a big pasta person. I asked her if they would be able to sub out the linguine for the roasted potatoes and add asparagus. she vehemently refused, said that there were absolutely no substitutions. one of the entrées that I was also considering was the short rib entree that came over truffle risotto. I told her that I did not like truffle, could I sub that for potatoes & asparagus, both of which are offered as sides. Also no. She said that we could only choose to not get risotto & pay for the additional sides. Which honestly seems kind of inflexible. Because of this instead of us getting entrées that were upwards of $42; I ended up ordering the crab and gnocchi. I've included a picture. It was utterly unremarkable. It is nothing that I would come back to this restaurant ever again to have. My Husband got the Bronzino which was also over $40 and came with no sides. While delicious, super pricey for just the fish alone. He was hungry so he ordered the Greek salad, also pictured. there was no lettuce in it whatsoever. It was just chopped cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, red onion, feta cheese, doused in a lemon & olive oil oil dressing. While it was tasty it was not your typical Greek salad that we have had at other very good Greek restaurants like Estia. When My Husband unenrolled his silverware which was wrapped in their beautiful shade of blue napkin, a big spider popped out. My friend went to the ladies room and said there were Beetles drinking water in the bottom of the ladies room sink. I'd like to point out that Shay was very attentive & following kitchen/ mngt rules, but the lack of flexibility & the price point of the entrées was so disappointing that I don't think we'll be back. I'd much rather go to a restaurant that says oh you don't want the pasta & you want the potatoes not a problem or it might be a $5 charge to do that as opposed to a flat out refusal, which then turned us, I was going to order appetizers. I didn't. I was going to order the nicest piece of fish that I could have so I had a nice dinner & I didn't. For any haters who think we punished the server, our bill came to $190 we tipped her $50. I'd like to point out to the mngt. that perhaps your policy & the kitchen staff needs to consider being a little flexible from time to time, because quite frankly if I were Shay, I would look for work elsewhere as w/us she could've had a check well over $300 as we would've ordered drinks, appetizers & dessert/coffee. that was the plan. Instead, we were turned off & disappointed. We ended up going somewhere else for drinks & dessert because of our disappointment in the inflexibility of the restaurant. I have never been to a good Greek restaurant & been told they would not sell you a plate of feta cheese w/ olives. Also, no hummus. Most do complementary w/ bread, which is usually pita this was some soft, sweet yellow bread, which the men enjoyed I did not think it aligned with the Greek theme maybe that's just me. OverallI Shay paid the price as She could've had a higher tip with a bigger check. Friends who came with us who were also put off by the inflexibility ended up both ordering chicken Santorini. They said it was OK.Moral of the story: you cando better w/ other restaurants on the island or in CMCH. We were disappointed, we thought we were going to celebrate wi/ an amazing seafood dinner at one of my favorite spots on the island. We probably won't be back or reccomend after this.

Let me start out by saying that the place itself is not much to look at and the furniture could use an update. It's decorated nicely inside. The service was ok the night we went and it's usually better. They had a huge birthday party (about 15 people) that took a lot of their time. However, the reason to come here is the awesome food. They bring you out three dips and pita for dipping. Each one if fantastic. For my meal I started with the salad topped with Mohammed's spiced vinaigrette. The dressing is so good. For my main I got the Egyptian Flounder with veggies and couscous. It came with a side of tahini to put on top if you like to. The Flounder was moist and delicious. The veggies and couscous were also very good. The portion size is incredible. The attached picture shows my meal, WHEN I WAS FULL AND MY MEAL WAS FINISHED. It came with two big flounder fillets. My wife got the crab bisque as a starter and scallops with lobster sauce for her main. I was able to try both since we had so many leftovers. The crab bisque is probably the best I've ever eaten. My daughter got the salad as well and the lamb stew which she really enjoyed.
