There are a lot of favorites throughout the years. I will try to list the ones that we have liked throughout the years.
1) We love Schooners - The food is very good, the bands are always wonderful and the atmosphere is great. Everyone needs to visit Schooners. Kids are welcome thus we take ours each year and they love it as well.
2) Boatyard - We have only eaten there a couple times. The food was very good. The atmosphere is very nice. This place has a very classy feel to it. I realize it is new and will only get better. Appears the owners are willing to make it a success, as I am sure they will. Gotta go here to eat, drink, dance or whatever. Similar to Schooners, but appears a little classier, but I prefer Schooners, more memories I guess!. Will have to spend more time at the next great place - BOATYARD
3) Captain Anderson's - Always go there. I remember my first visit as a 16 year kid renting a moped with a friend and driving here to eat. We looked at the menu and suddenly understood we could not afford much. Our $5 would only buy a salad so that is what we got. Throughout the years, we have eaten better here though. Captain Anderson is expensive if you allow it, but the food it very good. Worth your visit! Atmosphere is very nice as is the place in general. Huge investment in making the place larger and "cool".
4) Angelos - This place is really popular with my freinds. I liked the meals we have eaten there. We just have not eaten there a lot. Good food, we just prefer other places when we visit
5) Ruthie T's - Have always had a good meal here. Quite/quant place. We enjoy going here and eating an affordable meal and listening to the soft music. This place is always full so others may like it as well.
6) Hamiltons - I was not a big Hamilton Fan - My wife on the other hand was. It was once of her favorite. Fodd was good, just did not like the atmosphere and some of the staff seemed cranky.
7) BackYard BBQ - Loved this place for lunch - Little place with really good food. Always ordered carry out when I was down there. Closed now for some reason. Hated to see this!\
8) Pinapple Willey's - Excellent. Excellent Ribs - Not sure if I have had any better. But......I have only eaten there 1 time. Can not afford it. For $15 or so, only got about 5 ribs in a bucket that were about 4 inches in length. Had to go eat at Mcdonalds immediately afterwards. Ribs very good - Quantity the worst I have ever seen......And I am not a large person.
9) Breakers - Very good food - Very good view while eating. Place never crowed. We go there every year. Unfortunatley, we hear this is the last year.
10) Sweet Basil's - Very good affordable Italian food. Always a stop for us. We take out and sit in here. Really like the quality of food here. If you like Italian, you will like Sweet Basils.
11) Montego Bay - We have had great food here and not so great food. Seems like it is a hit and miss for us. Have not eaten here for a couple years, last meal was a miss.
12) Calypso - We liked this place a lot - The food is very good and always got their signature dish. Last few times, the quantity seemed to be less and less. Although the dish is very good, the quantity lacks. May not visit here for awhile, which I hate
13) Treasure ship - Kids love it, so I guess it will not matter what our food tastes like. Struggled with finding something I liked here for awhile. Last two years I have found it and order it everytime. The pastabowel is very good and that is what I get.
14) Chicago Dawgs - Little place to take a good hotdawg home. I always stop by.
15) Boars Head - Eaten there a couple times and both time have been great. Would eat there more but it is down the road a ways and we just have other places closer. Good choice for those wanting a quite quality meal.
16) Bayou Bills - Place we go for crabs. Not me but my wife, she loves this place for crabs. The food is good and costs the same as other places, If you like crabs, they are known for them
17) Pompanos - For years we never ate here. Had a bad meal some years ago. Just recently we went back and they are very very good. There is a reason it so popular.
18) Hammerhead Fred's - We like this place - Inexpensive and pretty good food. Have eaten there a couple times. Good choice on the menu. Something for everyone.
19) Home Made Ice Cream - I have NEVER had ice cream as good as this. They really do make it themselves and the taste is evident. We always stop in here a bunch of time. We have started calling ahead and ordered pints and take them back to the condo. This is THAT good. If you are heading away from the miracle strip, this place is in a little complex area on the right hand side just past the Fountain Le Bleu Hotel. Very Very good
20)Sonny's - A favorite of my family - OK for me. Every year I order a gallon of the baked beans and bring them back. Never in my life have I tasted any beans better then Sonnys
Well, that is enough for now, I am starting to get hungry!
