As a supporter of the local economy, In September of 2019, Buddy opened Katie’s Seafood House, next to the market. Katie’s seafood market supplies the restaurant with all fresh seafood.

    We love the food, always! But, the noise gets ramped up quickly because there is no sound dampening in the space so people quickly raise their voices to overcome the noise. Please consider assessing the space to reduce overall noise.

    This was an awesome experience! We reserved a space for 4 for drinks and snacks. It turned out to be a live music night which we weren’t expecting, so there were lots of people but it doesn’t feel crowded. The open air is awesome. The hosts gave us a comfortable spot to sit to see the show, but we could have been seated almost anywhere and still have good view. Our server was super sweet and took good care of us. The chicken bites and fries were delicious shareable plates for our group. We all enjoyed our drinks from the bar. It’s really pretty upstairs looking over the gulf-highly recommend!
