    Pesto Shrimp and Gnocchi
    John J.

    Best New England Clam Chowder you will find. Also highly recommend both the Seafood Risotto and Pesto Shrimp and Gnocchi. Service by Barbara was perfecto. Love BYOB

    Michael T.

    This place was amazing and earned it's well known reputation for fine dining. First of all, I highly recommend making a reservation in advance. The place was completely packed and I saw two parties get turned away simply because the restaurant was completely booked already. However, I overheard the conversation and I have to give kudos to the restaurant staff for having great recommendations for those parties to get a good meal. From what I heard, they really knew the area pretty well and I backed their recommendations too. We arrived with our reservation and were seated almost immediately. We had a little trouble deciding what to get. Luckily our server Kat walked us through the menu and had good ideas on what we wanted. We ultimately decided on: mushroom risotto and grilled polenta for appetizers. Seafood Pescadore and Seafood Risotto for entrees. For dessert, we got the flourless chocolate cake and bread budding. The grilled polenta had a great smoky flavor that paired well with the rabe. The mushroom risotto was really thick, creamy, and every bite was oozing with a savory flavor. The Seafood Risotto was also very similar and was filled to the brim with clam, mussels, scallop, and shrimp. The seafood Pescadore was equally chock full of seafood and sat on a bed of Linguini. It came with a choice of marinara sauce or white wine sauce. The mussels that came with that dish might be the very best mussels I've ever had. It was cooked tender but not chewey, and was seasoned with incredible flavor. The bread pudding had a caramel sauce with vanilla ice cream. The flourless chocolate cake was equally as good too with a gooey strong chocolate. As you can probably tell, I am raving about every single part of our meal. I don't believe we chewed on a single morsel of food that was bland or unseasoned. There was an incredible attention to detail on every ingredient on every single dish. This is definitely the place to go for a special occasion. The food and service have completely exceeded all of my expectations. So make that reservation, dress up nice, and show up. You won't be disappointed.

    This restaurant has become a staple for us. Not only is the atmosphere, service and food quality delightful but with all the competition of places to fine dine, it's nice to find one you grow to depend on. BYOB is option! We haven't had a bad meal ever. My wife longs for the Halibut dish perched atop of mashed potatoes and green beans smothered in some creamy gravy-of-a-sauce-goodness is simply different in a subtle brilliant way. I had a Chioppino style dish which was a special that night. I ate all of my dinner only to leave freckles of marinara broth as traces of my experience. No desert this night because we frequent a spot out back. Great meal at Tisha's but $$$ so fair warning.

    Pork Bolognese...outstanding

    Both the service (Lisa) and the food were outstanding. This places has two rooms...one is lively and vibrant, and the other quiet and romantic. Food portions are just the right size and there are options for those allergies. And the location is right in the middle of the quaint downtown area.

    Clam chowder

    We had a delicious dinner at Tisha's. We arrived for our reservation and front dining room was packed, so opted for the smaller, quieter back room! Tisha's is a BYOB, so don't forget to bring a bottle! We started with clam chowder, burrata over arugula, and beets/gorgonzola over mixed greens. All were very good and fresh! For dinner, my boyfriend just really wanted plain crab cakes, so ordered 2 of the appetizer portions. The 2 arrived on plates as individual servings. Would have been easy and looked better to just put 2 on the one plate. Mom and I split the Thai salmon with shrimp over potatoes and green beans. A very nice sized portion, I'm so glad that we shared! We didn't even look at dessert bc we had to meet family. Overall, a great meal with good service. Despite being packed inside and out, Gavin did a good job trying to stay on top of things! It was a nice evening!

    Crab cake and shrimp
    chris c.

    TLDR: rather overpriced for what was delivered We came for dinner and getting a recommendation from our B&B host. We got same day reservations with an 830 seating. We arrived very early and still got seated right away, at 810. This good because service was very slow. We ordered the seafood risotto and crabcake with shrimp. It took over 45 minutes to be served and it really wasn't worth the wait or price. The seafood risotto had a wonderful briny taste and the mushroom was amazing. However, the rice was a bit undercooked and the clams and shrimp were overcooked. The crab cake came with mashed potatoes and the green beans that I subbed in for spinach. Veggies were good, but plain. The crabcake was good but my shrimp were overcooked as well. Service wasn't bad, but I finished my water about 1/2 way through the meal and the server never bothered to check in to see if I wanted more. We expected higher prices for the vacation location tax, but we also expected higher quality preparation and service.

    Such a wonderful experience at this Restaurant..So cozy and the food was amazing. Our Waiter Sean…read moremade it even better very professional and friendly such a nice guy very thorough!!. We will be visiting again.

    I know there are some mixed reviews on here, which honestly surprises me because I've been coming…read moreevery summer for the past five years and it has consistently been very good. For us, the biggest priority is finding truly good gluten-free food, so we can't always afford to be super picky...but this place really delivers. That said, yes... some of the front desk ladies can be a bit not-so-friendly, which isn't ideal. But beyond that, everything else has always been amazing. The food is incredible, and a huge win is that they can make certain dishes gluten-free...and actually safe for people with celiac. They're very careful about cross-contamination, and the GF dishes still taste amazing. It's BYOB (love that), and the liquor store is conveniently right down the block. Parking can be tough, so we always just park in the ACME lot next door. It's super convenient even though it costs around $10-$15 when you're there for over an hour. The servers are kind, the ambiance is lovely...not overly fancy, but absolutely nice enough for a quality "get dressed up a bit" date night. I usually wear a dress when we go. I believe there's a cancellation fee, so definitely make a reservation, but it's worth it. Also, I saw someone complain that the staff "knows nothing about wine." It's BYOB. They only serve one in-house wine. This isn't that ultra-posh, high-end wine-service kind of place, and that's totally fine. They do what they do extremely well!

    Nice roomy tables for two. Very classy white tablecloth atmosphere. Love the BYOB…read more Service by Laura was exceptional - helpful with a great personality. She made it a fun evening. Food had some definite highs, but unfortunately, a big low. There's a lot going on in the dishes. We ordered two appetizers to start. The Tuna Tartare unfortunately was pretty bland and my wife thought a tad fishy. The Foie Gras by itself was delicious but it was drowned in a sauce that overpowered it. I wouldn't order them again, but there are lots of other options. The pasta course took a really long time to come out. We almost thought they lost the order. When the Radiatori arrived, it was worth the wait. A little spicy but delicious! Definitely recommended but pretty pricey for a small portion at $25. The entrees were delicious! My wife had the filet mignon with broccolini and delicious mashed potatoes. I had the delicious duck breast with asparagus. They were 5 star entrees and we loved them. Highly recommend both. We tried the off menu special dessert; chocolate chip banana bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. The bread pudding was terrible; perhaps the worst dessert I have ever tried - dried out and strange taste we thought. It didn't pass the audition for the menu for us.

    I visited GRANA BYOB with friends during restaurant week while staying in North Cape May. We made…read morereservations and started with the duo of tartare (salmon and tuna) which was excellent. For the entrée, I had the house-made rigatoni pasta topped with a scoop of ricotta. The pasta was fresh and delicious. For dessert, I enjoyed the strawberry panna cotta, which was a perfect sweet finish. Portions were good, and everything was incredibly flavorful and satisfying. Service was very attentive, adding to the overall great experience. The ambiance was a little upscale and intimate, with not many tables, making it a cozy setting. We brought our own wine to pair with dinner. Prices were reasonable, and the restaurant week menu offered good value. I'd definitely recommend GRANA BYOB for a special night out.
