Our server was great, he brought some humor to our visit. I was very glad I spoke with the bartender earlier in the day, she recommended the nachos but warned that they are a very large portion for the full order, even the half could easily be the meal for 2 to 3 people. She was not wrong, they were great and a huge portion. I enjoyed the special, cod and shrimp that they made blackened. For the price, it was also a good size.

Testimonials
great spot for seafood and watching the sunset while in SPI, Their beer battered shrimp are huge, crunchy, and delicious. They have happy hour deals on apps and drinks, and the service is amazing. They had live music as well each night. Great Restaurant!

After hearing how awesome this place was we tried it. We went back several times to see the unbelievable sunsets accompanied by bagpipes playing the National Anthem. It was truly a moving experience. We met several family members and they love the U.S.A.

We are a big family of 7, and we were sat down within minutes at the outside deck. Very nice location! Beautiful sunset! And the food good was great also. 👍 we are definitely coming back soon.

One of the best atmosphere's on the island. Bagpipes at sunset, open deck to watch the sun go down and friendly family staff. The food is good but a bit bland, we have been here several times and yet to be wowed by their menu. Most likely will return when family visits.

LOVED LOVED LOVED This place! From the views, to the service, to the food, to the atmosphere! There is honestly nothing that we saw for the needs of improvement. We took the pup and sat on the patio looking out over the bay. The staff was very pleasant and prompt, even though business began picking up after we'd arrived. Great experience!

Larry was a warm welcome for 2 weary travelers! His service alone would've been 5 star worthy then he brought the delectable food to the table!!! I had their highly regarded coconut shrimp with a mixed green salad topped crumbled feta and opted for the the garlic vinaigrette to dress.... it was like biting into a piece of heaven with every, single morsel!!! The prices were really reasonable for such a fine fare. We were moments of arriving into town from 1,000 miles away, we heard repeatedly about the restaurant from various content creators for South Padres Island Must-Sees YouTube videos and this cozy yet scenic eatery did not disappoint AT ALL. This is our 1st time here, we highly recommend this rare gem to visitors as a have-to-go restuarant you won't be disappointed!!! Please thank Larry for us again for the stupendous guest service and the nicest of welcomes to the town!!! Wheelchair accessibility: They have an accessible ramp at the entryway and wheelchair-friendly seating

DeveloperDog friendly and great service! The menu had plenty of options which was nice so we decided to also eat dinner here. The country breakfast and hot latte were very good! They provided a bowl of water for our dog as well. Anywhere you sit is a view of the water!

DeveloperAwesome experience. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Bagpipes at sunset is a one-of-a-kind experience. After dusk the place transformed with all the heaters lit up. The reason for the imperfect rating is because the accuracy of the order by my waitress. The fish I was served was excellent, but it was not what I ordered. I'm not going to let that ruin my evening. There was accuracy issues on the beverage order on a previous visit also. I still recommend adding this place to your agenda on your visit to SPI.
