Overall good, expensive, upscale, with a dedicated chef and a reserved staff. I suggest you take your desert to go and watch the sunset on the tip of Cape May, a perfect way to end the day.  Easily one of the best braised beef dishes I've ever had. The meat was tender with a slightly sweet taste that really complimented the beef. The shrimp was slightly spicy, fried perfectly. With the full mellow sweet potato and tangy kale, the dish was perfectly balanced. My friend had the duck and enjoyed the risotto. Well cooked but the fat and skin of the duck was tough which is understandably hard to perfect.

I'm finishing up my salmon and it is awesome! Got it for take out, and they gave me some bread for dipping in the fantastic broth/sauce. I had some bad experiences at nearby restaurants and am very happy I gave Black Duck a try. They were very friendly and quick for an amazing meal. Pretty sure the pasta that comes with the salmon is handmade, certainly delicious...and don't trust the hours on Google as they are open more than it appears, give them a call!

The food is amazing along with the service. We had the orange almond salad, lobster bisque, lamb chops, halibut and flourless chocolate cake. We highly recommended The Black Duck

The Good:  Cozy atmosphere, easy to find, free parking.  The Bad:  We ordered a steak with potatoes and asparagus served with arugula and balsamic vinaigrette dressing and we ordered the salmon. The salmon was great and is the reason for one of the two stars.  The steak was luke-warm and the asparagus was cold. The potatoes were the only hot food on the plate. The server offered to get me a new serving but I didn't want to wait for it. He didn't charge us for my meal which is the reason for the other star. The kitchen's timing was poor; the food should have come out hot altogether.  The staff was not warm or friendly. Our server was pleasant, but the prices and ratings had my expectations higher.  It was pretty tight in the dining room and noisy. Seating is kind of on top of eachother.

Fancy and interesting byo menu.  Red snapper with corn crab salsa and avocado mousse.  Chilled crab bisque.  Salted caramel ice cream over peach and cherry cobbler with a caramel drizzle.  I found the duck tasteless but enjoyed everything else.

We've been coming here every year since they opened.  Black Duck is a Cape May tradition, with an eclectic menu of delicious standards and a scintillating rotation of specials.  Bonus: like most restaurants in Cape May, this place is BYOB, and there's a fantastic wine and beer shop across the street.

The Black Duck is an exquisite experience not to be missed. Chef Chris is  an actual  culinary  genius. Flavors  are nuanced and perfectly seasoned.The staff is friendly, warm and  professional.  Truly a treat. I had the duck which was delectable. Everything was a delight. Absolutely  wonderful , so glad we went!

NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY, DON'T EVEN TRY IF YOU HAVE A KID! The restaurant was almost empty yet we were met at the door with "we don't have kids menu" as in" get out out of here". Fine but wanted to leave a warning for others. Elaine's was a great alternative!

Friendly, prompt service, nice atmosphere and amazing food! Dined last night with a party of four and everything was delicious from beginning to end. We started with the Ribs, Crab and Duck Spring Rolls and Edamame Dumplings. We shared the Tomato Mozzarella Salad with Fig and Pesto - for entrees we had the Beef Stir Fry Special, Halibut, Lamb and Salmon. All were fantastic! Dessert was delicious as well. Highly recommend!

One of the best Restaurants in Cape May! Great location and excellent Customer service! Food is top notch from appetizers to dessert! Dinner is pricey but it's also byob! A must visit if staying or visiting South Jersey!
