I love eating at Back Street. The food is always fresh and the best deserts make by the owner. The lamb chops are the best I have ever eaten. The chef know how my husband likes his lamb chops. Breakfast is also the" very best" in Cape May Small place and bring you own bottle!

We ate here with 3 friends (5 total), they are always on top of their game. The specials board is packed with a delectable amazing variety of heavenly dishes. We started with soups, crab chowder, and a corn chowder too. Then came the salads with crab, and one with chicken. Then came the entrees - OMG! Amazing crab cakes, Scallops,... More

We didn't make reservations, it was a kinda last minute deal but were seated by a friendly hostess anyway. What a meal, its BYOB in case you want to know. This was the next to last weekend they would be open until next summer, and we're only sorry we didnt get there sooner. It was a great meal, great service,... More

We chose this restaurant based on some fairly positive reviews on Trip Advisor but were sorely disappointed. First off, the place does not have much by way of ambience. Bright lights and tables close together may be OK for a casual dinner with friends- if that is what you are looking for - but it does not do much for... More

I was very excited to try out this restaurant based on the reviews. Our group of 7 dined here. The waiter was very friendly and energenic but his T-shirt looked dirty. Hmmn. We all enjoyed our meals but I feel the plating was on the sloppy side. It looked like I just plated it for my family dinner. Homey, but... More

This is a small, unpretentious, off-the-beaten-track restaurant with excellent food. Since it's BYOB, you can have a very good meal at a reasonable price. On our most recent visit, my wife had Crab Imperial and was very pleased. I had a meat loaf special. I love meat loaf, and I can tell you as I told my wife and our... More

Upon arriving in Cape May we stopped at Backstreet Simply Delicious for breakfast! It is a very cute place with a small breakfast menu. My husband and I both ordered the omelet special which was lump crab, american cheese and asparagus. It was SIMPLY DELICIOUS as were the home fries and fresh fruit that accompanied it! The coffee was not... More

I am glad we "found' this restaurant. The food is all homemade and delicious! We started out with a great appetizer and then we both had their fish of the day, rockfish. It was prepared just right. The homemade bread was yummy. This place is a little off the beaten path, but well worth it!

First of all, let me say that this is our FAVORITE restaurant of the many in Cape May. So much so, that we ate here 3 TIMES on our long honeymoon weekend! You should DEFINITELY make this a top "to eat" at restaurant if you are heading down to CM anytime soon. I wish we didn't live so far away....I'd... More
