Restaurants near Villas at Marina Inn at Grande Dunes

I had an amazing dinner here! Everything was absolutely perfect—from the attentive service to the cozy atmosphere. But the real star of the evening was the steak. It was, without a doubt, the best I have ever eaten at a restaurant. Cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor, it exceeded all my expectations. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience!

We were waited on by Julia and SA Mitchell. The service was extremely quick and attentive despite the fact they were sat about every 5 minutes another table due to high demand on Christmas. They tailored their service to our needs and timed each experience with great precision. The crab cakes were delicious and had a great ratio of meat to breading. The gumbo had a Louisiana flare that was a fun upbeat starter to pair with a non traditional holiday dinner. The sea bass, ribeye, sweet potato casserole, spinach, and lobster Mac will forever be the perfect pairing for a great evening. As newlyweds, we treated ourselves to crème brûlée with warmed cognac. 10 out of 10 experience, thank you for your attention to details!

New York Prime is a traditional old school Steak house with beautiful ambiance and classic service. We felt lucky to get a last-minute 7pm reservation same day Christmas Eve, however we did needed to wait to be seated for more than a half hour. It felt a bit long but it wasn't a big problem since we enjoyed some holiday cheer at the bar and chatted with others while we waited for our table. Our meal was delicious, and the steaks were done to perfection! We shared sides of creamed spinach and sautéed mushrooms that were more than enough for the two of us. It's definitely a pricey evening, but worth it for a special occasion .
