Blue Waters Cafe

Blue Waters Cafe is situated next to the ocean with great views of the bay. We serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our meals range from light meals, steaks, chicken and fresh fish.

Reviewed By Barbara L - Bernardsville, New Jersey

Choose this restaurant because it is #1 on TripAdvisor. We had a hamburger & the fish special, which was yellowtail. The hamburger was very good. The grilled yellowtail serving I received had a lot of dark muscle. It could have been better & was over cooked. Would go back for the view.

Reviewed By oskarseppl - Leeds, United Kingdom

We looked forward to our meal having read so many positive reviews. Our experience was extremely negative. Our waiter was very courteous but service was disorganised. In contrast to other diners, we were offered no bread prior to the meal, an oversight that was pointed out. When the "hot" starter arrived - it was cold. When this was pointed out, a "fresh" starter was brought out that was ovecooked and still cold. At this point we asked to speak to the manager who seemed disinterested in our concerns. At that point we left the restaurant quite stunned by the quality of food, by the disorganised service and by the very uncaring and negative attitude of management. Beware!

Stubled upon this restaurant that you must queue at. Easily rivals the best sushi restaurant that I’ve ever eaten at in the world and in PE . The service was excellent, the food amazing and I would recommend it with my life. Enjoy and especially the value for money.

Two Olives

Reviewed By John D - Petts Wood, United Kingdom

Our friends brought us here for Tapas just after the new year.
Nice atmosphere and a pretty good view from the upstairs balcony looking out towards the Ocean, just a shame about the building opposite.
Service was a tad slow for our liking, especially in taking our drinks order first but the food was very good indeed.
The calamari and prawns were excellent and the salad I had was very good.
I would come back here again and can recommend.

Sticky Fingers Wood fire Kitchen

Wood-Fire kitchen Steakhouse

Reviewed By logan2156 - Port Elizabeth, South Africa

Visited this spot and was surprised to learn that it had been open for about 4 years.Informal,cozy,friendly owners and real wood flamed cooked meats at realistic prices....no gas flames used on this meat,thankfully! One gets what one pays for and the quality of the meat selection is superb,supported by a fairly large wine selection,or for a small fee you can take your own.
Highly recommended,the best steak that I have eaten for a long time and will definately be returning regularly!

Charlies Pizza & Pasta Summerstrand

We're about good food, and good people. We make everything ourselves, bases are slow fermented daily to create an unique flavour, we hand-roll the pasta everyday, the vinaigrette, desserts, ice-cream is all made by us...and we only use fresh local produce.

Reviewed By Hishaan B

Their pasta is absolutely excellent! Service is awesome and the other food on the menu is scrumptious! There is a variety of different wood fired pizzas, with various toppings!
