The best buffet on the beach by far. It is on the more expensive side and they are only open during the busy season and most weekends. It has a small selection of seafood and steaks but they are always fresh and it is a great treat when you want a special meal that you will remember.

This is probably our favorite place if we want a nicer meal. They set their menu every day based on the freshest seafood available. They have a great surf and turf on Wednesdays. When you make a reservation be sure to request a window view where you can watch the boat traffic as well as the sunset on Grand Lagoon.

Panama Pizzeria
3123 Thomas DrThis is our personal favorite that we eat at often. They have live music almost every night as well as great Cajun seafood at the best prices in the beach. My go to meal is the Monte Cristo but the fish orleans and shrimp ponchatrain are both really good as well. Be sure to get on the waitlist through the Yelp app before you go because they are always busy.
