SEAFOOD, seafood, seafood! The shrimp, mussels, clams, crab legs all steamed to perfection! You are never rushed while you are having dinner, the servers are constantly cleaning up after you...especially your buckets full of clam/mussel shells..the dessert are delicious!! you have a variety of meats, side dishes, salads, soups and breads....so worth the price!!! We come for dinner every visit!! You will not be disappointed!!
Pros:
excellent food, excellent serviceCons:

We ate here on 12/1. We've eaten here many times before and enjoyed it up until the past two years. The food quality continues to go downhill. The shellfish was especially poor. Many people were complaining that there was little to no meat in the crab legs. The mussels were full of broken shell fragments. The clams tasted off too. The selection of non-seafood was very limited.

If you like fresh seafood, this is the place for you at WDW. Crab legs and mussels were fantastic and the buffet options were wonderful for all ages. Service the night was slow with bringing out drinks. We were finished with our first plates before our drinks came out. Come hungry!
Pros:
Fresh Seafood, varietyCons:

We visited here on Sept. 28, 2013 which was our third visit. If you like crablegs then this is a must. Although this is a smaller buffet there is enought variety. If you are not a seafood lover then I would recommend skipping this buffet. The crablegs were great, love the salad selections and LOVED the baked salmon. Our last visit, in Sept. 2010, we were less than thrilled with the desserts. However this visit they were among our favorites of our entire visit. Everyone in our group loved the custard with the berries. I personally loved the boston cream cake. All of the desserts were delicious. We also loved eating here because we love visiting the Beach Club Resort, so beautiful. We enjoyed a walk afterwards on the beach across from the Boardwalk. Our 2 year old daughter loved the boat rides to and from the resort. All in all Cape May is delicious and a must for our family for a Disney visit.

We ate here on Oct 10 and overall enjoyed the meal. We were put in the room to the right as you enter the restaurant. At first I was not happy with the location but then once we went up to get our food I thought better of it. We were out of the crowd and the hustle and bustle and it was quieter eating. Next time I will ask for that room.
My husband always liked their spareribs that they did not have this time. He felt that they did not have as much to choose from. I was content with the food...all the seafood makes me happy. The cod I sort of tripped over since they had it in small pieces in the kid' meal section. I'm sure many people missed it.
Their salads are always good and were again this time. Their soup was delicious but I passed on the carrot soup.
Our waitress was not very friendly. I know they are very busy in here but that is not the fault of the customers. Usually the staff is friendly, at least from our experience. She also was very slow to come to our table.
We will however go back on one of our next trips to the World.

Just got back on Sept 28th. This was our second time at Cape May. We go there for the crab legs. If you don't like seafood, this is not the buffet for you. I do feel like it wasn't as good as the first time, but it was still ok. I would go back because of the crab legs. I will say we got our moneys worth. Even the waitress commented and laughed with us about it. She had to keep emptying my husbands crab bucket. If you want to pig out on seafood, this is the place. I do have to say the chowder was to die for.!!!! I had almost 3 bowls. It is expensive, but ok if on dining plan. Rest of food ok.....typical for buffet food. Service was pretty good.
Pros:
all you can eat crab legs, seafood, chowderCons:

We ate here Oct 3 and had a delicious dinner. The food was hot, fresh, and plentiful. My husband ate his weight in steamed clams. The thing that left a bad taste in my mouth was that a family near us had a child that screamed for 45 minutes and management didn't ask them to take the child out. It was so bad a family near us had a little girl that kept her hands over her ears because the screeching was hurting them.

Great foodCons:

I will preface this by saying that I don't care for seafood and that we came here at the request of my son. Having said that, everything that I tried was very good. There wasn't a ton to choose from, but if you like seafood, my family says that it was really good! The desserts have a definite lack of variety for a buffet, but made up for it in quality. I would return.

Check-in about 20 minutes before our ADR and within five minutes our beeper was going off. This was our fist visit and we WILL BE BACK!!! The service was great, drinks were refilled often, and plates were cleared. The only upsetting thing I saw and it was not Disney's fault was a parent allowing their child to come up to the buffet and get their dessert using their hands and carrying their brownies back to their table in their hands. The hostess gave us some recommendations of this to try.
Pros:
food selection, very friendly, helpful CMCons:

I am allergic to Shell Fish and do not eat any kind of seafood really. DW, DS14, DD10 are seafood lovers and DD7 loves chicken, mashed potatoes and dessert 😉
DW, DS14 and DD10 loved the seafood selection. Crab Legs, Clams, Mussels and Fried Shrimp were their favorites. I thought the salad selections, carving station, potatoes and corn were very good. DD7 loved the kids area and ate plenty of chicken legs, potatoes, corn, mac-n-cheese and pizza. We all enjoyed dessert.
This place has become a must-eat for us especially if we are staying at Beach Club but really is worth it even if staying at another resort. We may try the breakfast next time but would eat dinner here again for sure.
