We found ourselves at Bud and Alleys twice on our week long spring Break trip for lunch. Both my boys wolfed down very delicious Kobe-beef burgers. The fresh fish (Mahi-mahi)sandwich was a hit with the hubby. If the Gumbo happens to be the soup of the day - order it -loaded with fish and a subtle, but spicy kick. The fresh Tuna Nicoise salad was excellent as well. Make sure to go upstairs, the views of the gulf and Seaside are awesome. We'll be dining here for years to come! Just a hint - sometimes it's best to dine at higher priced restaurants for lunch, you beat the crowds, better attentive food prep and less than half the price of your normal tab.

Went to Bud and Alleys after reading so many glowing reviews. The food was truely awful. Much was inedible and entrees alone were $30+. I love the area but the are MUCH better places to eat with far better atmosphere.

This place is overrated. It is expensive and the service is terrible. The food is mediocre. The outside bar is dirty and in need for some remodeling.

I expected more from Bud and Alleys. The write-ups in magazines are always great, but while the presentation was beautiful, the food was average. All of our food was undercooked, the vegetables almost raw. I found both of our meals there very bland, with the exception of the asparagus salad (yummy!) The kids' grilled chicken was dry and flavorless. They did make a great mojito. The ambience is nice and has a very clean, resort feel.
