Cafe On The Beach

We love to go here for dinner on a night out. The grilled snapper is some of the best food I've ever had and I didn't even like seafood when I first started coming to South Padre a few years ago. The coconut shrimp is amazing and the sauce it comes with is even better! The dressing on the Caesar salad is really good and the croutons are crumbly and delicious. You can sit in the covered patio area or outside where the view of the ocean is absolutely beautiful. The servers are always friendly and efficient and the prices are very comparable to other restaurants on the island. We stumbled on this little hole in the wall kind of place but we love it and will continue to go back here!

Went her because Google said it was one of the better spots to eat, and it was one of the breakfast spots with an ocean view faving East. We ended up coming back multiple times. Very relaxed vibe with great food and drinks. Every staff member wr interacted with was great and very polite. We will be back to see family, and will definitely be back.

I must say up front we were shocked by the quality of the food, etc. at Cafe on the Beach, located at The Palms Resort, very limited parking. It's not much to look at, small, simple, not a whole lot of improvements over the years. But, they did have plastic flaps that dropped down on the outside of the place to keep the wind and cold weather out, heaters provided too! Service by Aaron was top notch, start to finish! We initially just decided to stay to a drink and move on ... but as we sat there and looked at the menu, sipped our drinks, we saw other food coming out of the kitchen! It looked GREAT! We ordered the crispy oyster tapas (fried oysters on homemade potato chips with mango pico). They came out quickly and were oh so tasty! We were convinced! Time for dinner! We ordered

Breakfast and lunch menu have different serving time windows. Their breakfast includes the egg Benedict dish. If you are interested in this, go in the breakfast time window. Very friendly service and quick food serving. It has a good view to the beach and the sea. Food is served in good portions.

We ate a late lunch here and really enjoyed. Sat out on the patio with the dogs and beautiful view. We had he jalepeno hush puppies and appt the catch of the day. Very generous portion. One of our favorite meals this trip.
