A bit more upscale, but you can still wear shorts and flip flops! Excellent seafood and wine list. Our favorite is the whole red snapper cooked Cubano style!

Freshest, and best, ceviche on the island- opens for lunch, and closes when they sell out. During busy season they usually sell out by 2 or 3pm. No seating, so pick it up to go. They do individual and party platters.

We love the wood fired pizza at Gabriella's but highly recommend order extra crispy (and extra thin if you prefer that way!).

Open breakfast through dinner with excellent seafood selection plus burgers, chicken, etc. Their seafood baskets are very popular, but my favorite is the Mahi po-boy. Can get very crowded at dinner so either go early, or prepare to wait.

Grocery Store
Local grocery that offers most things, but sometimes limited selection. They do have their own butcher on staff, and offer excellent steaks that we highly recommend for grilling. Prices are higher than average, but worth the convenience of not having the cross the bridge to Port Isabel.
