The fudge is all theatrically prepared right in front of your eyes on marble slabs and served by the thick slice.

You choose from 20 flavors of ice cream then the fudge or other sweets to add to it, and they mix it right up in front of you.

The Captain's Table in the old Owens' Restaurant building features a legacy of coastal Southern fine dining by the sea. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner in a family-friendly atmosphere, and a breakfast buffet on weekends. The breakfast menu features hearty favorites like Benedicts, platters, omelettes and comfort food favorites along with mimosas and spirits. The lunch menu features seafood, sandwiches, burgers and platters.

This is a large, family-friendly restaurant and large parties are welcome.

McGrath's is an Irish-themed meat-eaters paradise. They do wing all the ways: bone in, boneless, grilled, with wet sauce or a dry rub. They have all the appetizers that go great with a Guinness, like Irish Nachos and Pretzels and Beer Cheese. Their burgers can be crafted classic American style or Irish style — for instance, the Irish Car Bomb with fried onions, Jameson barbecue sauce, a fried egg and Bailey's candied bacon. They also serve chicken burgers, hot dogs and even have plant-based options like the Beyond Burger and a black bean burger. Just try to resist their chips (fries)! McGrath's Burger Boxes make for easy take-out dinners. McGrath's has a full bar with beer, wine and spirits, including all of the Irish favorites.
