Food Scene

Oceanside, waterfront dining. One of our favorite restaurants and a great value. Portions are very large. I suggest having an appetizer and share an entrée. I would say go to Marker 88, Morada Bay, or Lorelei for sunset and then to Lazy Days for dinner. Alligator Lighthouse can be seen in the distance.

A personal favorite. This tiny upscale seafood & New American restaurant can be pricey but is certainly worth it. They always have a wide variety of fresh locally caught fish. They also do an amazing brunch on Sundays. Call for reservations.
