    We sat outdoors on the porch. It was delightful with a warm breeze. Debbie our server was great and the drinks were creative and well crafted. We will go back.

    Specials were not told to the waitress and found out after they delivered swordfish to my wife who ordered a chicken dish. We kept the swordfish dinner. Bought a bottle of wine and desert was great,

    Wonderful Mothers Day Brunch on the porch at the Surf Shack. The menu was a combination of high tea items and brunch dishes. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Some highlights were strawberry mini scones with lemon curd, deviled eggs with truffle, the French Toast and of course, the Filet Mignon which was cooked to perfection! The service was excellent and the ambience outside on the porch was lovely.
