After coming to Cape May for years we always wanted to try Louisa’s but could never get a reservation. Always walking by, peeking the windows looking at the amazing food and atmosphere feeling envious. We finally secured a reservation! But I’m not going to lie… the experience was a disappointment. First the service was extremely slow, we waited 30 minutes for a server. Then it just took just as long to get our entrees. The fish was very tasty but the sides are just sad. Every entree comes with dry brown rice and random slaw…. They really missed the mark with sides. We had the salmon, flounder and scallops. All were fresh and tasted great. Ohh and it’s BYOB, might be nice if they put that on their website. They did redeem themselves with dessert. Dessert was phenomenal. We had chocolate pie, vanilla bread pudding, spiced dark chocolate bread pudding and the panna cotta. Glad we gave Louisa’s a try to finally cross off our list but we probably won’t be back

Dinner for four at Louisa’s last night did not disappoint.

We started with the cajun crab soup which had generous portions of crab meat, Smoked Salmon Rillettes served with Golden Wheat Crackers, and a roasted beet salad with Gorgonzola Cheese and Vidalia Onions. For entrees the Cape May Scallops with Tamari and Ginger was delicious and the dipping sauce gave it a little kick. The Crab Cakes with Homemade Tartar Sauce were wonderful, everyone raved about the tartar sauce! The deserts are something to save space for at the end of the meal. Louisa’s Chocolate Pie with Orange Apricot Glaze is a must try.
Staff is friendly and attentive. This is a BYOB restaurant. Can’t say enough about Louisa’s except go there and enjoy.

One of our absolute favorites! The seafood is fantastic and the sides are a perfect accompaniment. Their sauces are great, the salads are amazing and deserts even better.
The staff are so friendly and accommodating!
Don’t sleep on Louisa’s !!

Really good food and friendly staff. Sitting outside is my preference but bring sunglasses in case the sun gets in your eyes My only recommendation to the restaurant would be to offer possible other sides with dishes to add some variety, since most dishes come with brown rice + slaw only. Really tasty soup of the day and salads. BYOB but there’s a liquor store literally across the street. Will definitely be back again!

Intimate, vegan-friendly dining in Washington Street Mall. I ordered the Ginger Sesame Noodles and (egg-free) Farm Vegetable Cakes with slaw, brown rice, and spicy ketchup. Everything was light yet satisfying; a delicious, well-seasoned meal. I look forward to returning!

Charming atmosphere, cozy, bright and welcoming. The food was fresh, filling and fantastic. Especially recommend the Grilled Atlantic Salmon with Lemon BBQ Sauce (so delicious!) and literally any of their desserts. All so, so good.

Have to say, I was expecting more from reading all the glowing reviews!
The Cajun Crab soup had a nice flavor but not much actual crab meat.
Scallops seemed to have all been prepared exactly the same, leaving the smaller ones overcooked. Again, nice flavor when paired with the sauce.
Others were not impressed with the Bluefish.
Was told the crab cakes were excellent.

Charming atmosphere and delicious, fresh, artfully served food. Swordfish was tender and juicy, and the beet salad with edible flowers had the perfect balance of flavors. We enjoyed the tasty, healthy meal made with fresh local ingredients (and a stop at Louisa’s chocolate shop afterwards).
