Restaurants near Bay Villa Ocean Front Two Bedroom

John was an incredible server. The whole restaurant was special but John made it extra special. He was prompt, personable, funny and honest. We accidentally gave him a 40% tip and he kindly brought it to our attention. Also, they were short staffed because of various unfortunate circumstances but he made up for it tenfold. All the servers were friendly including Jake and Chris as well. We felt very cared for- they treated us like Ohana. So pleased.

Dined for lunch. Mango BBQ salad and Caesar salad were both wonderful. Definitely make a reservation, it was super busy when we arrived and the couple ahead of us was told there would be no tables available for 30-45 minutes. It is casual during the day; you’re on the beach. I dined here several years ago and enjoyed it! We’re actually headed to Dukes now for breakfast!

Merriman’s has never let us down. We had meatless entrees and we both ate every bite. B ordered pasta from the Starters/Apps menu and I had a mushroom pot pie special. I struggle finding words to adequately describe the flavors, textures, and beauty of the pot pie. A blend of mushrooms and each flavor stood out. The crust was brilliant; absolutely perfect. The dough was stretched over a cast iron pie plate and it had risen probably 4” over the mushrooms inside. And the pastry was delicious. Honestly, a top 5 dining experience of a lifetime of fine food. But salads, yes. Off of the menu, but perfect. Generous portion of very fresh everything. I had the blue cheese crumbles on mine and B went without dairy. Mango, avocado, tomato, greens dressed with subtle citrus dressing. Perfect.

Always a lovely experience at The Plantation House! My husband and I had a delicious brunch the morning after Christmas. The dining room overlooks the golf course and ocean with beautiful views and quiet ambiance. The food and service are always top-notch. It was fun to see them setting up the course for the Sentry PGA Tour starting on January 2nd. Treat yourself for a special or regular occasion. You won’t be disappointed!

Our meal was amazing, as always. The macadamia nut Opakapaka melted in our mouths. We did the early bird and it was great value for the money. The viniagrette on the salad was delicious and the tirimisu was so moist and divine. One person got the full filet and it melted in our mouths, as well. He said best steak he's had in 15 years!!
