We ate on a Sunday on the beachfront. They had boiled crawfish that day and it was great. Also, the fried shrimp with the sweet chili aioli sauce is fabulous. The drinks are a reasonable price.

We ate her for lunch while staying at the Holiday inn Resort. It has a fun beachy theme and is well decorated. There is indoor and patio seating. The menu has a nice variety and the food was good.

Went here a few times as I was staying at the Holiday Inn where it is located. The food is pretty decent. Had the sliders one day and a seafood combo on a different day. We also had breakfast there on the last day. The breakfast buffet was pretty nice with a wide variety of items if you wanted to... More

Usually don't eat at hotels, but ate here during our stay. Service was good and food was good. Nice sports bar with TV's around the room. Not the best for couples if he likes watching sports

I had dinner at Ripetides tonight. Food was good, service was excellent. Server by the name of John S. He was so professional, attentive, and sweet. The food was good as well. When you sit at a both you have your own tv to watch whatever you like. I will definetly return, and I will request John. :-)

This bar & grill is an excellent place to go anytime! Me, my husband, my daughter & her husband went here a couple days after Christmas. We all ordered something different and all agree that the food was excellent!!! Our server, Sherita, was fantastic!! All agreed we were coming back...many times. Have found our new "spot"!
