So for our food tour this week, wanted to comment since we use this forum for recommendations on where to dine:
First, although this is my wife's account i'll post my thoughts. We are Arkansans, so we love southern style food.
We are also breakfast/dinner eaters here in Sowal, as we usually do a light lunch coming in off the beach.
Arrived Saturday and did Flip Flops for lunch. It was very good as usual, I had the Gorgonzola burger and the wife had a regular. While the buns tend to fall apart, they are very good. You can go wrong with a quick lunch from here. 8/10.
Saturday Night - Take out from Gravel Road. To me, this place is the most underrated place on 30A. They have their own twist on southern food, mainly that it is typically fresher and a little less starchy and doughy. I absolutely love this place. I had the chicken fried steak with green bean casserole and the wife had the ribeye with sweet potatoes. Everything was perfect. Keylime cheesecake was out of this world. 11/10.
For breakfast the past two days, we went to Don Pedros. I noticed that the prices have jumped a little but there is one way to describe this place. Simple but wonderful. IMO, the best breakfast on 30A by far. The food is always perfectly cooked. Had the chiliqueles yesterday and eggs Benedict today. Pancakes, scrambled eggs and all the sides for the rest. 11/10. I will have to say that I would put the eggs Benedict at 8/10, it was good but not their speciality. Still really good.
Maries. This place is simply phenomenal. It's as everything that people have been mentioning. Wife had shrimp in a white wine butter sauce and she just lauded how wonderful it was. I had the ribeye special. That said - the best part of the meal was the dinner salad. I don't know what the salad dressing was exactly, but it was the best salad ever. Extremely fresh with lots of taste. 11/10.
Tonight for dinner - ShooMamas. Neither my wife or I are big fish eaters, but I went for the fish taco ( notice I didnt say tacos, it's one big taco on a 12 inch tortilla). This was some of the best fish I've tasted. Tons of flavor with the mango salsa. Wife had the shrimp plate and said it was great as well. She had two margaritas, I had two yuenglings and the kids had kids meals. Great value. 9/10.
