Good menu options. Restaurant was very accommodating to wifeâs allergies. If you are a fish eating vegetarian, like my wife, she liked the mahi-mahi tacos and me being a carnivore I tried the BBQ Grilled Cheese with tots. Both of us enjoyed our entrees. It is quite loud inside, very popular place. A lot of bar seating and high top tables-only a few normal tables.

Located in the Holiday Inn, it serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is indoor and outdoor dining options. We always eat lunch there when staying at the Inn. It is so convenient to walk up from the pool area and sit outside overlooking the pool and ocean. Service is friendly and just the right pace for a vacation setting. Pricey but that is to be expected when staying at a 'resort' and by the beach. You may eat by the pool but there is a 'restaurant/bar' for that called Lazy Daze. Thrilled they have a nice place for us to grab a sandwich, burger, salad, etc. without having to leave the Inn.

I have eaten here many times. First time for their Sunday brunch.I was impressed. They had LOTS of choices on the brunch buffet. Bacon, sausage, eggs benedict, sausage gravy, biscuits, grits, salmon, waffles, pastries, bagels and cream cheese. And desserts. And fresh fruit. They also had a gentleman making omelettes or any kind of eggs you wanted.Beverages were extra. The orange juice was good.Service was okay to take plates away and serve drinks.The best thing was the price. Only $17.95. Great value!!

Cash only. A local and visitor favorite. There are regular dogs, all beef and sausage. The taste is just what you want in a dog. They have all sorts of combos with chili and cheese and kraut and what ever you want on your frankfurter.

Sitting outside on the patio, next to the attractive brick wall on a nice summer's evening at Poe's, is the way to go. The Coranado Orange Wit and the Old Tuffy drafts were ice cold and the Shrimp salad and the Pit and the Pendulem burger were very good. This burger had the addition of bacon and cheddar cheese and the potato salad was about as good as I have had. They were red potatoes in large chunks with a limited amount of mayonaise. The bacon blue cole slaw was also pretty good and our waitress was just right. Poe's has a nice upbeat casual atmosphere.

As a solo woman sitting at the bar, I just had a $2 Nicaraguan beer &The BEST scallops/Thai noodle bowl for under $10. Had horrible quiche earlier for same price but thatâs another review!Chris is a friendly & nice waiter. He was good at chit-chat & seemed to know most of the clientele. Iâm visiting from Pa.My food arrived quickly, w/o any mistakes. I took 1/2 home for another day. Beer was tasty, as promised. A cute pooch behind the bar helps things move along. They have specials every day except Saturday...M-closed T- $1 tacos W-$4.95 chicken waffle /burger $1.95 wine R- 1/2 off âbowlsâF-free wings w/drink purchaseS-no specials Sun-$2.50/5 wings Note, one bar side caters to kids, the other gives us childless (or those seeking a break from THEIR kids?) folk a break from kidsâ dining experiences.
