My sister and brother-in-law are coming to Seagrove in April. They wanted to know about some good resturants. We were there last summer and had one night out without kids and went to Cafe Thirty A which was great! What are some other places I can recommend to them? And their specialities?

Basmati's. I haven't tried the new D&Ks on Grayton Beach (I think there are ocean views) but others on this site can let you know. I assume they're excellent -- the old D&K's was one of my favorite places to go.

I also heard the cheese plate at Wild Olives is amazing. Haven't tried it myself yet, but will in April.

We tried the new D&K's during our trip to SOWAL in February - it was outstanding! They are only open for dinner, Weds-Sat.

There are ocean views from D & K's and the new interior is beautiful. We loved all the art work in it. Kathy you did an excellent job!:bow:
The food was fantastic! Everything that each one of us tried was fantastic. I had steak which was divine, FFF had the snapper, we each tried the other and started to switch plates but could not decide which was our favorite... so we just shared! One of the best salads around....had lightly dusted and fried crawfish on top.:drool: Oh and my steak had lightly dusted and fried oyster on top....mmmmmmmmm....I have to go again next week!

Don't forget Borago's...tell them you want the Miss Kitty special😀 ..you may get a blank look....tell them you want the appetizer of grilled scallops....deliciouso! Also, one of the best martini bars around!:drink2:

Amore's menu looks yummy!:clap_1: We tried the Old Florida Fish House while we were there in July and wasn't impressed. The service was bad and the food was just okay. It was over the fourth so maybe they were just too busy. I heard good things about them before we went. Don't know if I'd recommend them with so many other good places to try. D & K's sounds like a place with good food and atmoshere. I'll forward that on to my sister. What about Borago's?

I was introduced to Borago's by local friends. They eat out on/near 30A nightly and declared it their favorite. I have been going for 3 years and love it every time. My friends also put us on Smiling Fish--Tue. only dinner meal, Cafe 30A, and Cowgirl's Kitchen for lunch/take outs. I highly recommend all.

Wow, almost forgot one of our very favorites for a special night---Cafe Tango.

The music on the weekends (Thursday-Saturday) is grayt! 😀 I don't eat seafood, so I can't tell you about the food at all. I've heard good things about the sushi, though.

The sushi is excellent! Be prepared to wait. I would suggest sitting at the sushi bar because table service is terrible there.:roll:

Any ideas for an after wedding dinner for a group of 17 (8 of those kids);-)

Something casual, but still nice???? We are going to be married on Tuesday May 29th..Close to Rosemary beach.

I was thinking of Pandoras in Grayton beach or how about the Smiling fish?

I was going to use the Terrace restaurant,but they cancelled on me since they will be taking the day off after the Memorial day weekend.

Thanks for any help.

Looking for entries in the $20-$28 range????

If you don't mind us taking a minute to toot our own horn....Gravel Road is the best in town. We just celebrated our first year anniversary and the word is already out on 30-A. We serve lunch from 11-3 and dinner from 5-9:30. Our lunch favorites are our Chicken Pot Pie, the Grouper Sandwich served with candied Pecans, and the Kobe beef burger (YUM). On our dinner menu the most popular dishes are the Buffalo Mignon (don't miss this), the Elk loin, and the Grouper served with Boniato Mashed Potatoes and Broccolini. The truth is folks, everything is absolutely delicious. The dinner menu prices range from 8-26 dollars. On Wednesday night, our locals night, we offer three menu options for $15 dollars and the Steenos play acoustic music for your listening pleasure. The Steenos are an acoustic duo with a song selection that is as diverse as the day is long. Please make reservations for Wednesday night due to this becoming the most popular Wednesday night spot. We are not to be missed while on your vacation. If you're a local and you have not visited us...then shame on you! Make your reservations at 850-534-0960.

Everything mentioned above is GRAYT, but I still can't say enuff about D&K's Cafe'. :clap_1:
Simply an incredible feast for the eyes and tummy too! :cool:
One night I went, the steak was as big as my forearm, from elbow to wrist, I kid you not! And it was soooooo delicious I ate the whole thing. Of course I couldn't move the rest of the night but who cares! 😱
The appetizer was extra large butterflied shrimp wrapped in bacon, served on a bed of cheese grits! To die for!:wub:
I'm salivating as I write!:drool:

Here are some long overdue pics of some decor that I was given to bring home from the restaurant to add to my existing decor- This is my fireplace mantle. We decorate for Mardi Gras every year. The kitchen is dedicated to the French Quarter year round!
