Fourth year in a row celebrating our anniversary in Cape May, fourth year in a row eating at the Blue Pig on our first night. Fourth year in a row of the best elevated tavern food around. I had the steak frites (my wife says for the second year in a row), and it was perfect. Expertly cooked hanger steak, great chimi, and lightly-battered fries fried to perfection. Dessert was the seasonal pie, a banoffee, and it was also delicious. Service was excellent. We'll be back next year!

The food was delicious. Our server Cat was wonderful. Cat was the best and her recommendations were on the money. She was sweet and took very good care of us. The food was fabulous and so was Cat. Everything was just fantastic!

We dined in the Library at Union Park for restaurant week. The 3 course $69 prix fixe menu was outstanding offering many choices of appetizers, mains and desserts. The beet and burrata salads were excellent. The lamb was cooked perfectly and the lobster tail with risotto was delicious. The cheesecake was light with a berry topping and the tiramisu was delightful! One of the best meals we have had and Martin provided excellent service! Kudos Union Park!!

reasonably priced good Greek food.... it doesn't have the overpriced, touristy vibe so prevalent at the shore.... plus easy, free parking & byob. We live 20 minutes from Cape May and 20 minutes from Court House and when we have visitors we head here when we want to go out for a nice dinner.
