"We made our first family vacation/long weekend getaway to Freeport/Surfside Beach. This place was recommended by a family friend and boy did it not disappoint! We had our family dog with us so learning that the patio/beach overlook allowed dogs already started things off right. We were greeted upon walking up the stairs and sat almost immediately with the most amazing view of the Gulf and beach. The waitress that we had was fantastic. Kept the drinks topped off, recommended some of her favorites and always was great about checking in. We started off with 2x orders of the boiled shrimp for appetizer and it was fantastic! Excellent seasoning, not too much spice and the cocktail sauce was definitely not store bought (which tasted amazing! . We had several drinks (Hurricanes and margaritas both which I thought tasted great. I had the grilled Gulf snapper and it was delicious! My dad had the chicken fried steak and it covered the entire plate! The dirty rice left a little to be desired but it may not have just fit my taste. Overall, I would highly recommend this place to absolutely anyone! Between the views, delicious food, and great waitress, we will definitely be back if we head to Surfside again."
