Confirm the current menu + hours on site.
Best meal: Lunch or dinner on the downtown waterfront — the signature Grits à Ya Ya and Gulf seafood, with the marina/deck scene. Confirm the current menu on site.
Who it’s NOT for: beach-based diners unwilling to drive to the mainland (~25–30 min) anyone wanting a quiet formal room (it's a lively popular waterfront spot) no-plan diners at peak weekend hours
