Always our go to place for a great meal(even if we have to eat a lot later than our norm)! Only criticism about last night was too much cauliflower. Soup of the day for example and it was prominent in our entrees. Since it’s summer and hot , something more seasonal. I think cauliflower in the fall.

Best food on the beach restaurants. Great welcoming staff. Cocktails that can't be beat. And of course the best food around. Easy to see why they were James beard finalists. Chicken and biscuits to die for.

Great meal again at One Coastal. Lived the tuna and duck mains, prepared perfectly and the accompaniments were remarkable. Enjoyed the crab and asparagus app. The beets salad could be better as it was too hard (cheese and the beets). Nice bottle of French Chardonnay too

Food was excellent as always. Loved my scallop crudo app. And loved the addition of the local blueberries in several dishes. Service was just a little slower than usual, but understandable considering it was Father’s Day and very busy. Always a great evening and dinner!!

Amazing meal!!! My salad was like walking through a garden tasting so many fresh bites with memories of my grandmothers blueberry pie. Everything was amazing.
