We came upon the restaurant by surprise. The name was intriguing and the inside looked trendy yet casual. The chef and owner is such a charming young man and the wait staff couldn't have been more friendly and efficient. I have a very strong aversion to Cilantro, but the chef walked me through the menu choices and put together a... More

We visited Cape May off-season and were glad to find this restaurant open on a Wednesday evening. We had checked out some other restaurants and found they were either closed or very pricey. In general I would say the food here was consistently better than average and almost exceptional. Given the reasonable pricing that makes it a real value in... More

Everything is fresh and simply prepared! We thoroughly enjoyed the salmon, cod and steak du jour. Great service, too!

So we bought a Living Social deal which brought us to Cape May, and since the YB Eat Place was just around the corner from where we were staying we decided to return, not only because we enjoyed the food last August, but also because of the "New York" prices of the other local restaurants. Y.B. Eat Place food prices... More

Cape May New Jersey is a special little town any time of the year, but in the early spring after a good winters yawn, the little town by the sea begins to awaken. With this comes the opening of some of the best restaurants in town. YB's is one of these little gems. YB is the "younger brother" of the... More

My wife and I discovered this place a couple years ago and can't get enough. We travel to Cape May a few times a year and ALWAYS make YB a stop. The service is friendly and efficient. The menu is awesome. Recommend the mac and cheese balls, the tuna tacos, the turkey dinner, any fish dish. Great food, inexpensive, and... More

We went for breakfast as we were going to go to George's but were not going to wait for 1/2 hour and someone suggested we try here as they are the same owner. We walked up 3 storefronts and there was no wait. We were immediately asked for our beverage choice and got water. The Coffee was very good. The... More

Small BYOB that is cash only. Great fresh food - plates look like they came from the more expensive places around Cape May. The most expensive thing on the menu is the mahi-mahi at $18.95. They have no problems with ordering a couple of appetizers for dinner. I had the flatbread and chicken and it was great. My wife had... More

The turkey dish is really good. Since not everyone likes turkey, the grass-fed steak of the day was excellent!
