Buoy 44 Seafood Grill

We ate a lunch/dinner around 3:30, so there weren’t many other people there. The inside was nice. It’s right on the beach, so the view was nice, and it has an outdoor seating area to enjoy the ocean. Our server seemed liked she was rushing us even though there was nobody there, and I don’t think she refilled anyone’s glass of water the entire time we were there. She just seemed like she wanted to be at our table as little as possible. Everyone’s meals were pretty tasty except mine. I had the Baja fish tacos and the fish didn’t taste fresh and was super salty. I only ate one. The coleslaw was good, though. They definitely could use some improvements, but we’ll probably try it again sometime eventually.

Buoy 44 is definitely a local favorite and a fun spot right on the bay in Chic’s Beach. The view is wonderful, especially around sunset, and it has that laid-back, coastal vibe that keeps people coming back. The food and drinks are good, the service is great, and it’s really just a good time. I wouldn’t expect the best food in the world, but honestly, you can’t beat the setting, the atmosphere, and the overall experience. If you want a true local spot with great views and good vibes, Buoy 44 is a solid choice.

This place was great! The food was really good and of course the view was excellent! The parking directly in front of the restaurant was limited and we had to find street parking a few streets down with a quick walk. We ate on the outdoor deck and during the lunch service they had some large fans which were turned on to help with the heat. Overall I'd love to come back here!

My husband, our daughter, and myself enjoyed our lunch. Our server was wonderful. Our food arrived quickly, and tasted good. I got the shrimp tacos(pictured), and my husband got the fish tacos. Our daughter got the Caesar salad. My tacos came with lots of shrimp. I would definitely recommend this place, even though we are not a fan of valet parking.

The spot is right on the beach and has awesome patio seating. The food, not so much. The presentation of the food is great but the food could use more flavor and not stuff everything with "sandwich fillers"(lettuce...that's it).I see this place as a "hey let's grab some drinks" or "I need food". The crab dip is mostly just cream cheese. The sweet potato fries were probably the best on the menu, the rest was just median.
