One of my favorite spots for amazing views and great drinks! The waterfront ambience is absolutely beautiful, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. It’s an ideal spot to start the evening with a sundowner while enjoying the stunning marina views. As the night goes on, the place comes alive with great music, an energetic vibe, and a fantastic atmosphere. I visited on the 4th of July, and the fireworks display made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for a place with scenic views, good drinks, and lively nightlife, this is definitely worth visiting. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful time at Surf City Restaurant with our family! The atmosphere was fun, the food was delicious, and the drinks were amazing. I highly recommend the lobster rolls—they were fresh, flavorful, and definitely one of the highlights of our meal. The cocktails were also so good! Our server, Oscar, made the experience even better. He was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The only downside was the wait for indoor seating. We didn’t have a reservation, so we added our names to the waitlist. While waiting, I noticed several tables sitting empty for quite some time. When I asked the host, I was told they were reserved. However, many of those tables remained unoccupied, and even one of the waitresses mentioned noticing the same thing. We still ended up waiting about 35 minutes before being seated. Overall, despite the wait, we had a great experience. The excellent food, delicious drinks, and outstanding service from Oscar made it a memorable family outing. We would definitely come back—next time, we’ll be sure to make a reservation!

Great service and fresh seafood! We ordered the fish and chips, calamari, and lobster roll, and everything was delicious. For drinks, we had piña coladas with Hennessy—I’d definitely recommend doubling up on the shots if you want a stronger drink. The atmosphere is dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and perfect for families during the daytime. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area! Ohh yea we got the key lime pie not bad.

This place is great for its outdoor casual eating. The seafood is really good! The table service was pretty slow and just ok. The views made it worth it. I also liked the drink selection. There’s an option for table service and then just a food window, so you can spend as much or as little time there as you want. There’s a variety of seating types and the chairs are more comfortable than average. Parking is free but a bit of a walk. There’s an option for close paid parking. I’ll definitely be going back.
