Great place to escape to. They have wonderful food and good spa treatments. If it is cloudy by the beach you might be able to find sun here. They have a large jacuzzi for those kiddos that get chilly in the pool.

Need some good bar food and a place to watch the game? Indoor and outdoor seating. Delicious food. Love the burgers and anything that has shrimp in it. Good chicken wings, too. Tell Mike, Christine and Tyler sent you.

It is an amazing specialty market that has so much to offer. Their meat and seafood selection is ridiculous as well as an amazing produce section for such a small store. The have a deli where you can order sandwiches and salads to go. Their Poke is off the hook. No pun intended. Their ceviche is amazing, too.

Café Vahik (now renamed Windansea Cafe) and is really good; you can dine in or do take out (it is super small so I recommend take out). Our kids love the Acai bowls and their egg combo plate. Tons of food for just a few bucks. Their salads are huge, delicious and cheap. The Greek Salad and Yellowtail Salads are the best. They also have amazing Ceviche.

Nautilus Tavern is our go-to because of proximity. Warning, the food at Nautilus Tavern is not great. If you are going to order food there order “bar” food. Their salads are awful, but their burgers and sandwiches are decent.

The Shack is also close by, but is for adults only. Food is delicious. Good chicken wings. Stiff drinks. For some reason they have the most delicious pizza and they are huge. Great place to watch a game and play some pool.

Rigobertos is our family’s favorite taco shop. If you want to feed your whole family quickly and on the cheaper side this place is great. Our family favorites are the Breakfast Burritos and Carne Asada Burritos. Be sure and ask for extra salsa (they have green and red).
