Cool Cape May 2021-22

[157] food & drink
Vincenzo’s Little Italy & Pizzeria
Want home-cooked food that will satisfy you, your family, AND your wallet? Guess what — you found it.
WHERE IS IT? Go over the West Cape May
bridge and head toward the ferry. Turn right
at Bayshore Road and drive a half-mile —
Vincenzo’s is on your left, across the street
from Wawa.
WHY SHOULD I GO? This is a REAL Italian
restaurant, reasonably priced and familyfriendly,
with food that will have you talking
with your hands... Italian style.
So what’s the restaurant like? It’s bright,
spacious, adorned with charming Italian
murals, and it smells like all the best things to
ever come out of your grandmother’s kitchen,
including sauce pies, pizza, pasta dishes and
mouth-watering seafood entrées. And the
staff... they’re as friendly as an old-fashioned
Italian grandma, too. You’ll also love the cozy
booths — perfect for an intimate meal.
Everything on the menu is served at the
height of freshness. All dishes are prepared
in the traditional Italian way, so if you’ve been
craving something just like mama (or grandma)
used to make, you won’t get closer than you
will here. The portions are generous, too,
because you should eat — it’s a good thing.
INSIDER TIP Vincenzo just expanded his
pizzeria section and it can now host bigger
groups and even private parties. And be sure
to check out their sister restaurant, Iccara
Italian Bistro, in the heart of Cape May.
