Sea N Suds Restaurant
You aren’t going to get corned beef and cabbage at this wonderful seafood restaurant that has been a staple in our community since 1975 (with the exception of a few months in 1979 when the original Sea N Suds needed to be rebuilt after being destroyed in a storm), but the beer will be delicious. They are famed for their gumbo, created from a recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation for over 200 years. We especially love the Gulf views, views that you can get a sneak peak of while scrolling through a virtual tour on their website.
