410 Bank Street<br />
The New York Times says it’s worth the drive just to eat here. That’s a review you can bank on.<br />
WHERE IS IT? Facing the gazebo on<br />
the town square adjacent to <strong>Cape</strong> <strong>May</strong><br />
Stage.<br />
WHY SHOULD I GO? Walk through<br />
the garden of the wisteria-covered<br />
cottage, beneath the spinning fans<br />
stirring the aromas of mesquite grilled<br />
fish and steaks, and be transported<br />
to Key West or old New Orleans.<br />
The flavor palettes of the Caribbean,<br />
French New Orleans and hints of Asia<br />
merge into a cuisine that the New York<br />
Times calls “powerfully addictive.”<br />
Judging from the guests who travel<br />
from New York and Washington just to<br />
dine at 410, it works.<br />
In what was once a stable and<br />
residence for drivers of the Victorian<br />
horse-drawn fire wagons, Chef Ron<br />
Panczner continues the 410 legacy<br />
that transformed fine dining in New<br />
Jersey. The service made one critic<br />
feel “as if dining on a private yacht.”<br />
Recipient of the International Five-Star<br />
Diamond Award, 410 was voted Best<br />
of the Best, Best French and Best<br />
Caribbean Restaurant in South Jersey<br />
in NJ Monthly readers’ poll. Bring your<br />
appetite: dinner is bold and exciting,<br />
and your server will guide you through<br />
a dozen nightly specials.<br />
INSIDER TIP With direct contacts with<br />
local fishing boats, this is the place for<br />
fresh fish and seafood. They also offer<br />
dinner and a show packages for <strong>Cape</strong><br />
<strong>May</strong> Stage and East Lynne Theater.<br />
