In Italian, the word, Secondo means “the second part of a duet.” When we opened Panico’s Bistro, we knew we wanted to eventually add some harmony to our original melody and so, Secondo is the continuation of our long-standing tradition to serve classic Italian cuisine in concert with Mediterranean influences right here in Cape May County. Nested beautifully on the bay, enjoy dinner and hand-handcrafted cocktails; inside in our sophisticated dining room or outside on our covered patio next to the harbor and water.

Reservations recommended. Walk-ins are accepted based on availability. We will do our best to accommodate requests for seating preferences and/or outside dining, but they cannot be guaranteed based on limited outdoor seating. Outdoor dining may have additional wait times. Two bars (seasonal) are available to enjoy cocktails and wine should you arrive early for your reservation.
For parties greater than eight or private events, please call 609-600-2115.

    Great Drinks, great food, and love their bread and oil! We sat in the bar dining area for the first time and really enjoyed the live music!

    The place was clean. We were seated immediately. The waiter was attentive and helpful. Dinks were served quickly as were the appetizers. The menu appeared limited. Food was brought out in a timely manner. It was hot. The place was busy but was never loud and never appeared crowded.

    Secondo is our favorite restaurant in WW. Or second favorite (no pun intended) is Panico in Cape May. 😊

    Amazing food., so many specials don’t need a menu..had to take soup special to go ! Afraid I wouldn’t eat everything I ordered. Tom made the whole dining experience special’ so attentive but not intrusive! Pork chop as well as rib eye special were exceptional… Caesar salad so light and crisp!! Can’t wait to go back!

    I have been there a few times and they never disappoint. We have had the same server since last year so that says something about how the treat their staff. He was happy and knowledgeable. The Baked Feta appetizer is lick the plate delicious. They also bring out warm bread with olive oil dipping bowl. The octopus appetizer was very tender and tasty. I had the grilled salmon special with mashed potatoes and broccoli. The salmon was very tender. I was too full for dessert but it did sound tempting.
