    Had run out of LOTS of things on menu. Toward end of season is NO excuse. Lettuce and beets at $18 is just silly. Even drink components not available. Wonderful location and wait staff tried hard to please but management is doing a very poor job.

    This was our 1st time here. Unfortunately, they were out of some of the drink specials and also some of the food on the regular menu. From what we were told, this was a 1st for them being open beyond Labor day. I would go back and try it again in the "on" season in hopes the service will be better as it was very poor.

    The views and ambiance are unbeatable. We went with our toddler - they have a kids menu and high chairs, so I assume pretty kid friendly. However, no bathrooms have changing tables nor did they have kids cups when we went in late August. The fish and chips are delicious. I wouldn’t bother ordering the chowder again though - it was mostly broth. Also, they refuse to serve regular tap water in a cup. Service was great. Overall, it’s definitely worth a visit - just keeping these thoughts in mind if they apply to you.

    2 two years apart with 5 same people. Granted we were on tail end of covid on first visit but everything was outstanding for beach food this second visit. All 5 agreed a vast improvement. We will keep going back.

    It was wonderful, my 9 year old loved being to eat "over the ocean" and the food was so good! You get a lot for what you pay for. Definitely recommend.

    Haven't been to the Surfside Restaurant in quite a while and was pleasantly surprised. Received an email letting me know about some upcoming entertainment options including a Beatles acoustic guitar group called "2 of Us." They were insanely good! Pleasant music, a beautiful night overlooking the ocean, and the food was much improved since our last visit. More comfortable chairs on the deck as well. Will definitely be back and look forward to more classic hits style music.

    Very nice place, the waiter was very kind and I loved the space in front of the stage for the children to play, perfect and the view is spectacular, the price is not expensive and affordable and the quality of the food is very good

    We were here for dinner and to dance to the energetic band,WildFire. We had fried clam dinner, fish tacos, and onion rings. They were all very tasty and were a perfect portion size for us. We were seated outside under the covered deck with a glorious view of the ocean. Drinks are served in plastic cups and water only comes in bottles which you have to pay for, not very accommodating for people who have water with their meals. The deck is spacious for lots of dancing. We liked it here and would return.
