Bar none the BEST at the beach. Thin crusts are topped with cheese and then homemade sauce. Yes it's backwards and it's the bomb. A pie is $21 plain but it is 8 huge slices

Delicious, reasonable tacos - 1 for a snack, 2 for a light meal, 3 if you are super hungry. If you like avocado, the “green crack” is a must

Well executed dishes with flavors and seasonings that bring the best out. We especially like the family style fish and steak (keep in mind when ordering they serve 3 people or 2 big guys) and then get a couple of great veggies on the side. The Nashville cauliflower is a great choice for vegan/vegetarian or as a side to split

Renovated in 2023 with 3rd story location (elevator accessible) with bay and ocean views and no more buffet - this is upscale. Excellent menu - think elevated pizzas and yummy apps, mixed with craft cocktails and fresh from the farm and sea entrees. Can meet your budget, still check out the menu. On the second floor they have an arcade for the kiddies but not sure about a kids menu - we didn't see one.

Adorable little joint with great breakfast - priced like a Denny's but the entrees are more localized (think crab cake benedict, fried green tomatoes, fresh blueberry pancakes). Owner can be a grump, but the wait staff is friendly and fast
