    We ordered the bahn mi sandwich and the veggie bowl. Both were cooked perfectly - veggies just crisp enough, flavor was rich but not overpowering and fries were crispy. Our bottle of wine was half price so we appreciated that special. Service was friendly and welcoming while not being too attentive. Great quiet date night with delicious food!

    I have to say this after just recently trying 2 items of the simply grilled menu at Surf Shack….. it is absolutely THE BEST simply grilled that I have ever had! So much flavor for the simplicity of it. Service is always exceptional too. I genuinely like every single person I meet here while dining or having drinks. Highly recommend!

    Another great meal at The Kitchen at the Shack. Had the steamed buns, the Island Shirt Ribs, and Grilled Tuna. All were great. Found a nice bottle of wine on their wine list. Our server was friendly and efficient. Highly Recommended!

    The tuna was ideally prepared. The espresso martini was scrumptious. The ambience was inviting. Will gladly return the next time I’m in town

    The kitchen was an amazing experience. The inside was completely redone. There is plenty space around each table and the noise level was very low. The service was excellent. The food was amazing and prepared with great care. The flavors were exceptional and the appetizers straight through.
