Great Chef-owned restaurants that cater to local, year-round dining and farm-to-table experiences. Some* within walking distance.
Make a reservation to Becca's while here. Spoil yourself with Sunday brunch, or a long, lingering, lunch. While there, take in the all white, sunken garden and the grand lawn with its spectacular ocean views. It's well worth an afternoon.

Yummy, yummy! A longtime favorite. I get The Dude burrito twice a week when I’m in town. If you like frozen margaritas, check out this happy hour with tacos and other food specials. Good parking. But also an easy walk.

They have a fresh outlook on great, American, classics. Trust your waiter if you can't decide. Get a special, seasonal martini cocktail--always refreshing. Call for reservations. Walking distance.

My favorite way to eat. Share a variety of (Tapas) small plates offered. It's a great time to try something new. Ask the chef to recommend dishes based on your likes and then let him roll them out. You’ll often get his best. Cocktails are delicious too. Easy walk from 220 Cavalier.

Hands down the fried chicken! Grab a large order for dinner and enough for lunch the next day. Don’t be afraid to try the sides as they are worth it!

Breakfast places

An oldie but a goodie. High volume breakfast dining room with a huge menu. Tanya's favorite: stuffed french toast with strawberries and bananas. Bruce's favorite: the Pocahantus omelet. Southern Living "best pancakes" list. There is usually has a line but the dining room is large and they move rather quickly.

This petite bakery is nice for two. Any more than that and it starts to feel crowded. The bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant and a double latte are to me, perfection.

If you haven't made a reservation, do it now. And if dinners are booked, try lunch. I like it even better because you can see the ocean and shoreline. Beautiful. And the Sushi is good, too. Ive had the Whole Fried Fish. Fabulous!! Try everything. I haven't heard a complaint from anyone yet.

The place to be 4-6 pm when the temperatures are perfect. Great Mixologists. Try something with fresh juices. Located across the street in the Marriott's lobby, beachfront side. Play on the bocce court or just sit back in an Anderonadk Chair and gaze at the ocean.
