We absolutely adore this place! The decor is top-notch, creating a romantic ambiance. The service is excellent, and the food, though not extensive in its selections, is all delicious. I ordered the roast chicken, and my husband opted for the Wagyu burger. Both dishes were tender and juicy, exactly as we had hoped. If you haven’t tried this place yet, I highly recommend it.

By the way, if you do get there early, the outdoor porch is a great spot to sit and enjoy your wait time in style, and don’t let me forget to mention this place is BYOB.

My family and I came to Maison Bleue Bistro while vacationing in Cape May for the first time and we had a wonderful experience. This converted Victorian home is a charming place for a nice dinner on the patio, or a romantic date inside with its beautiful fireplace, whimsical wallpaper, and candlelit lit atmosphere. The food is on the pricier side, to be sure, however we came during restaurant week and had a wonderful 3 course meal for $58 a person. The French themed restaurant serves food that is rich and decadent, with wonderful flavor. The mushroom “escargot” was a unique vegetarian version of the dish that was shockingly delicious and the lamb chops were cooked to perfection. The service is professional and high end. All in all, Maison Bleue is a lovely place for a lovely dinner in Cape May and I would recommend it to anyone who loves French cooking.

My fiancée and I have been to Maison Bleue multiple times and always have a fantastic meal and great time. We always like to sit outside on the veranda at nighttime. The flavors and colors are rich and beautiful and no matter what we order, it never disappoints.

One of the lesser know items that is probably our favorite is the side of truffle frites. That is always the first thing we grab when our mains are set down.

First of all, food was great! Scallops were incredibly fresh and juicy, pâté flavorful and complimentary bread warm and mouthwatering.
The rest was a little underwhelming: they had some issues with the music so half the dinner was spent in silence; they didn’t have anything special for a birthday apart from a candle they put on a desert we’ve ordered so I guess if we didn’t order it nothing would’ve been done to celebrate my husband’s birthday which I mentioned when making a reservation); service overall was a little sloppy at times.
Biggest disappointment: 4% credit card surcharge was included into the bill – I can understand when little family-owned joints do that but when a restaurant charges $40 to $70 for the entrees, I believe they should not be pushing this additional expense on their customers!

Honestly every dish is well cooked and seasoned so very delicious, but the duck confit we had as a special dish that day is next level!!! The waiters and waitresses are all super friendly, especially to our baby 🙂

Lets start with the bread shall we? The butter with the flecks of salt! I even asked for a second basket! Our server recommended the pea soup so thats what I chose to start with. So glad I did! It was so good! For my meal I had the scallop dish and it too was delicious! Perfectly cooked and the mushroom sauce was so good! I would have loved more veggies, my only complaint. We also had the cream brûlée for dessert. Our server was alright enough. Nothing special. Vibe was nice inside.

Recent Trip to Maison Bleue at The Hugh B&B in Cape May did not disappoint! Shout out to Dorothy Birchall Shuman and her support staff for the excellent service. Russ Wheeler and the back of the house killed it! I love French cuisine and was really looking forward to this one for my Birthday .

Duck appetizer was a hit. The Humboldt Fog cheese was amazing. Next moving on the the escargot over the puff pastry. I have never had it prepared like this before and I don’t think I want it any other way now. So delicious. The baked oysters with leek fondue and caviar were probably my personal favorite. I could probably eat a dozen of them. So creamy and delicious. The steak and scallops with the Cafe de Paris sauce that was “plucked” out of France by the owners was to die for. I could put this sauce on anything. So rich. The apple birthday dessert and the Crème Brûlée were both very good but I would have to say it was the best Crème Brûlée I’ve ever had. So satisfying cracking the sugar shell on top.

Once again highly recommended from the food to the service to the atmosphere. Was sat inside but they also have a nice porch with comfy chairs and couches that looks onto Washington Street and even has overhead heaters for the colder months. The inside dining was extraordinary. The French music mix along with the lighting definitely set the tone for the evening. I felt like I was in Lyon but only 15 minutes away from my doorstep. 10/10 experience, will be back!

Would leave 10 stars! This was one of the best meals my husband and I have had in years! This was our first date night out together since having our baby 6 months ago, and we wanted to try something a little different. Some of the adventurous dishes on the menu caught our attention, and it was walking distance from the rental we were staying in.

The ambiance is very quaint and cozy. We sat outside on the porch and there was a beautiful late summer breeze. Brought our own bottle of red. Was told they do sell bottles of local wine there, but we opted to BYOB which is a great option. Our waitress was very lovely. (I think her name was Erica?) Kind and attentive! The meal and coursing was done very nicely.

We ordered a bunch to try. The standouts of the night were the foie gras with figs and hazelnuts (special) and the tartare. The foie was so rich and fatty, but the sweet sauce balanced it out. The tartare was extremely light and fresh. The escargot was good too-The garlic sauce was delicious. For the first time trying snails we were surprised- they are meaty/earthy. (I liked that they had a mushroom option on the menu for those who don’t eat meat!) For mains we had the summer truffle pasta and the filet. Dessert was the crème brûlée. Very smooth, and a clean vanilla cream flavor.

(Saw the burger go by, and that looked phenomenal as well.)

This was such a lovely place for a romantic date night. Next time we are in the area on vacation, we would absolutely try this again. If you are in the fence about the menu- don’t be intimidated! Everything was done to perfection!

Wow!!! Just an incredible meal!

The food was tasty and portions were healthy. Two thumbs up on Madison Bleue Bistro! First time here and very impressive. For starters we enjoyed fresh oyster and French Onion soup. The oysters were definitely fresh and delectable. The soup was one of the best versions I’ve ever tasted, loaded with cheese and two pieces of bread. Our mains were Filet au poivre and day scallops. The steak was cooked to perfection medium rare in cognac cream sauce. Six scallops in maque choux corn. bacon beurre blanc. Again the seafood was fresh and amazing. We also had a side of their wonderful truffle fries. Finished it off with a crème brûlée which was sweet and made me want to take another trip back to Paris.

All and all a top ranked French meal and I didn’t even have to leave Jersey.

We started with the baked oyster as appetizers. It was delicious but the cheese kinda overpowered the oysters.

I then got the filet of salmon which was so perfect. The skin was crispy yet the flesh was soft and tender. What made it better was the sauce too. My husband got the fluke. The sauce was a bit sweeter than we would’ve liked but generally it was good. Then we finished off with creme brûlée and tiramisu— both were great options.

Btw we went for my birthday dinner. My husband indicated so in the reservation. But there was nothing from the restaurant. We went to another fine dining restaurant for my husband’s birthday that used the same reservation system and they had a little birthday card and the server even wished him a happy birthday. Just keep that in mind if you expect that from the restaurant!
