"The most wonderful fried shrimp basket with a delicate, light coating and piping hot! Plenty of shrimp comes with it. Good hand cut fries. The corn and crab chowder had good flavor, but hardly any meat whatsoever. It might depend on who is ladling from the pot. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3"

"Worst burger I’ve had. cole slaw had a weird taste and not fit to eat, forgot to bring cole slaw and salad to the table. The seafood platters were 2 stars if that. Not much for atmosphere as there were only 3 tables at 6pm on a Friday night. Should have known when we turned into an empty parking lot to just leave. No refills on drinks and took forever to get our ticket to pay and leave. Service was lacking all the way around, didn’t even know where the drink list was on the menu."

"We made our first vacation/long weekend to Freeport/Surfside Beach. This place was recommended by a family friend and boy did not disappoint it! We had our family dog with us so we learn that the terrace/beach visibility allowed dogs already started things right. We were greeted on the way up the stairs and sat almost immediately with the most amazing view of the golf and the beach. The waitress we had was fantastic. Kept the drinks on top, recommended some of their favorites and was always great about the review. We started with 2x orders of cooked prawns for appetizer and it was fantastic! Excellent spice, not too much spice and the cocktail sauce was definitely not bought (what tasted amazing! . We had several drinks (Hurricanes and Margaritas, which I thought tasted. I had the grilled golf snapper and it was delicious! My father had the chicken steak and it covered the whole plate! The dirty rice left a little to wish, but he might not just have my taste. Overall, I would recommend this place to everyone! Between the views, delicious food and great waitress we will definitely return when we go back to Surfside."

"This is the very first time I've ever reviewed a restaurant. I feel compelled because 850 Pizza has dropped this same ball 3 out of the 4 times I've ordered pizza from them over the last year. I call them they say delivery or carry out? I say carry out. They say 30 minutes. I show up in 30 minutes. They take my money then start making my pizza. 30 minutes cooling my heels, with the young lady who said 2 minutes when I first arrived. Couple of others who came in after me. One sharing my frustration who was told 7 minutes after he arrived was getting angry after the 20 plus minutes he had waited so far. I forgave them the first couple times but this is my last visit. Soon there will be a couple new pizza joints opening in Freeport. Maybe they can keep their pizza promises. Meal type: Other Price per person: $20–30 Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1 Recommended dishes: Meat Supreme"

"lunch was fantastic! we found another great dining place in yarmouth, this time it seemed ideal for a casual culinary experience. they had a quite extensive menu, with some really filling suppers. on another counter you can order barista style drinks, and some totally decadent style desserts. I can't expect to go back and try their most important lime or lemon tarts. I ordered the falafel package, some had the crabcake sandwich and we both tried the mushroom soup (the gloriously boiled in view that there was a rainy day, I added her chai, and it came the perfect try for me. when I was recently transported to yarmouth, I can honestly say I'm back! update: we were back several times and claytons never disappointed. the mozzarella and Pesto sandwich is divine, like their seafood cahowder. the young loves her grilled cheese. she knows it's a good day when we stop grabbing a sandwich!"

"This is a big step of rock hollow NOT a down degree at all!!!! Much more space to move and don't feel haunted by the skulls on the walls! Bartenders are amazing!! They were very rude! And as if they hate their job! They are now treating everyone as their number a customer!!!!"

"Wait times are way too long, staff is inexperienced, food is often overcooked. We kept going back thinking they're a fairly new business we should give them time to get some issues worked out but every single time was a disappointment. There have been times we were the only people in the restaurant and still took 45 minutes to get our food. Out of the dozen times we have been there we have only had 2 good waitresses and then the next time they were gone replaced with completely inexperienced wait staff. But what really turned me off is the rudeness of the owner!"

"Great place. I can't recommend their desserts wrapped in the plastic that I didn't quite take, but you can go ahead and try. Breakfast sandwiches, pancakes and Omelette plates are delicious."

"Went here for my wifes birthday thinking there was a view of the water... my mistake, but at least they have outdoor dining.The food was fresh and we opted for straight seafood tapas and I can say they are cooked to perfection, the shrimp was not overcooked and so was the octupus. We also had the Paella which to my taste was a bit salty, nothing but a squeeze of lemon could balance out.The only reason why I gave the place 4 stars is the price. If the serving would be doubled, this would be a 5 star place. But to be fair, we did order the seafood so they are expensive compared to beef or pork."

"I was delighted to find this Burger King on a rainy day in June 2019. It appears to be a new location, with employees who were friendly and efficient during my visit. The restaurant was clean, including the impeccable restroom with a choice of antibacterial hand soap. The Wi-Fi at this location is very fast, and there are two televisions for entertainment. The restaurant is open 24 hours, but the actual dining hours are from 6am to 11pm. Overall, I would give this Burger King a five-star rating."

"This is a cute Mum Pop place with incredibly delicious, inexpensive food. The owner worked the register well during the administration of the place. I like the river of the place, order in the register, to find a table, and they bring it out to you. Make yourself a favor and gy the cinnamon roll french toast "

"Bucks is fantastic! We got the burnt ends and the chicken wings to start. The burnt ends were delicious with the dipping sauce. We tried the Thai chili and blueberry BBQ wings and they were phenomenal! Some of the best wings I've ever had. We got the chicken burger for our meal, we tried the grilled chicken and the fried chicken sandwiches and both were incredible. Our waitress was very friendly and fast to refill drinks, without hovering and interrupting our meal. Beyond impressed with our first visit to Buck's. We will be back."

"My mom and I stopped in for dinner yesterday. The fish and fries were so delicious and cole slaw were also so delicious. My mom had grilled chicken wrap. It was good however she wishes that it was shedding chicken. We also noticed that the place has been fixed up. It looks nice."

"I recently dined at this restaurant for the first time. Unfortunately, the fish and chips dish was a letdown as the fried haddock was severely overcooked, resulting in a dry and hard texture. I debated on mentioning my disappointment but chose not to complain. On a positive note, the beer selection was excellent and the staff was helpful in assisting me with my choice. The employees were incredibly friendly, with welcoming smiles and polite service. The dining area and bar were impeccably clean, creating a pleasant atmosphere. Despite the disappointing meal, I plan to give this restaurant another chance and explore a different menu option during my next visit. A diverse menu awaits, so I am hopeful for a better experience."

"One of the worst restaurants I've ever been to. We waited over 20 mins to get our drink order in. The owner finally brought us our drinks after 10 more mins plus a bread basket. After 45 mins since we walked in the door we finally got to place our order. Then the waiter brought another bread basket. 1hr 1/2 went by and we got excuses as to it being busy that our food wasnt out yet. Then the waiter came back and said the kitchen lost our order. The waiter tried to bring a 3rd bread basket with the 2nd one still sitting full. the 2hr mark has come and past, we asked for the manager and the owner came out. We finally got our food togo and a $25 giftcard that will never be used. I was the worst service ever. Also when we finally got to eat the food there was a hair in the pasta. Completely gross."

"The service was excellent, the staff was polite, and even though they forgot one of our orders, they did not charge us for it, so it wasn't a big deal this time."

"Eek a disaster. Very long waits with tables sitting empty, often unbussed. We waited 30 minutes, having been told 15. And there's nowhere to stand without being in the way. We overheard a waitress complaining that she had had an empty table for ever. Long wait for food, no check back, no attention to drinks, food good and uncomplicated. If you don't like or can't eat seafood, there is limited choice. I really couldn't recommend it. It makes me think of a similar restaurant in similar circumstances. The restaurant at Vermont Country Store, which manages huge lines, but has perfect service, fascinating food, and its soooooo tasty. It's odd that LLBean which does everything well should have such a disappointing restaurant."

"Large burgers, friendly staff in a cozy atmosphere. What can you ask for more? With my husband and our baby. The owner of the place noticed that I fed my baby when he came and offered to wash the baby bowl after it was finished eating, to which I went the additional step to make your customers feel appreciated"
