“We came down to our place at the coast to celebrate New Years Eve. Then decided to go to Tia Juanita’s Fish Camp for an early afternoon dinner. Decor, atmosphere, service and most of all, the shrimp brochette, jalapeño cheese grits and sautéed vegetables were awesome. Highly, highly recommend Tia Juanita’s. Have never had a bad meal! (Just wish they would expand to Canyon Lake!!!)”

We eat breakfast here every morning they are open when we are in town! The staff is great as well! There is one guy that works there, though I can't remember his name, but he's tall, thin, white, and bald. He's wonderful, full of smiles, and great stories!! 5 star review!!!”

“Went to Tiki today 10/8/22. There was a group of us that flew in, I guess 13 in all. They were doing a good business today with several tables full of customers. They allowed us to pull tables together for our group. Even having several customers and light on staff our drink orders were taken promptly. As we all visited the waitress took our orders and for our size group the food came out in a timely manner. Everyone was happy with their food and no complaints as far as timing. Our group will be going back!!!!”

“Our first experience at The Porch Cafe was wonderful and will definitely not be our last. The staff was accommodating to allow our puppy in the outdoor seating area. The food was amazing and the ambience for Sunday Brunch was perfect. We highly recommend this island site for an excellent dining adventure.”
