About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
For more than 30 years, Gulfstream Cafe has been a sought-after spot for birthdays, anniversaries and more thanks to the picturesque waterfront view and authentic coastal cuisine. The laid-back atmosphere at this Garden City institution complements the fresh seafood and southern favorites, choice options include broiled Lobster Tail, creamy She Crab Soup and jumbo lump Crab Cakes. Head back for their seasonal Oyster Roasts or watch the sunset on the rooftop deck, all wildly popular (and Instagram-worthy). *Please note: Guests are permitted to park in any open space on our shared lot.

    We have dined at Gulfstream before and this time did not disappoint. We were celebrating our 25 wedding anniversary. They helped with table decorations and even comped dessert for us. The crab cakes are sooo good 👍

    The Gulfstream Cafe is in an amazing location. It overlooks the inlet. We ate on the top outside deck and it was a little sunny and windy. We were seated quickly, but our biggest problem was parking. All the lots were full, and my husband finally parked and then joined us. The waitress was nice, but they were out of a lot of the beer brands mentioned in the menu. Our food took a very long time to come. The crabcakes were wonderful, but some of the other members of our party were not as happy with their food. Upon leaving around 9pm we discovered that my husband had accidentally parked somewhere that he should not have and our car had been towed. We were lucky that they allowed us to get our car that night. Some of the others who were towed were not that lucky and may have had to wait until Monday morning to get their cars. Don't think we will visit this restaurant again.
