Just wanted to write a quick follow-up and thank you. Here are the places we loved: Mack and Manco's Pizza, Ike's Crabcakes, Shriver's Taffy and the new Shriver's Gelato joint (all these places are on the boardwalk), Aunt Annie's Ice Cream (at 21st and Central), the pancake house (also at 21st and Central), and the Shell Museum. The adults each had a date night (with drinks!) at the Crab Shack (much fancier than it sounds!) in Somers Point.

Now, we went to Island Grill but were underwhelmed. In retrospect, we just ordered wrong. The owner/operators clearly are very interested in game, and I bet the boar is delicious. But the seafood was bland. We'll try it next year once we've had our fill of fish.
