Beware of Surf Rider at East Beach as well as their other locations. My wife and I visited the East Beach restaurant location for the first time and experienced a questionable overcharging for services by their bartender. I didn't confront the staff member about my suspicions and only after requesting the itemized bill did they give a lame excuse that original bill could not be reprinted after credit card was processed. I questioned this and they said bill would need to be recreated. The bill correction came back miraculously $20 lower and was accompanied with a fuzzy explanation and a comp'd rail drink that would have exceeded $20 if actually on initial bill. I find this event at East Beach disturbing and I suspect it could be systematic overcharging of customers at this location by the bartender. I contacted one of the owners family members to request a reprint of original bill and was given the same song and dance. They finally came up with excuse that there was an extra flounder dinner added to the original bill that was made by mistake. All this without being able to see the original bill. Amazing right! I will not return to any Surf Rider location again.

We've been going to Surfrider since they opened. My favorite dish has always been the fried clam strips.. ordered them last nite and they were not the same. they had a sandy like batter on them and they were not crispy. The French fries were also different. Portions are also smaller. Very disappointed. Maybe they have a new chef. if so they need to bring back the previous chef.
I hadn't been in this Surf Rider since they remodel! Food was great! and the room they have now is just fantastic! What a gem 💎

Crystal was a perfectly lovely server this evening (Sat Night). We were celebrating our 27th anniversary and everything was on point! Got seated in a booth right away. Enjoyed a delicious hot meal seafood meal. The crab here is always fresh and scrumptious! Thank you Crystal for your excellent service and attention to detail.
Beautiful view of the water and boats as you eat. Inside or outside dining. Food was good. Wide variety of seafood. Service was not as good as usual today.

My wife and I come to this Surfrider frequently and we’ve rarely had any kind of poor experience. There was some staff turnover issues during Covid but that was a hard time for everyone. The restaurant thrives again today with a great sunny atmosphere, casual ambience, great food every time, and friendly service.
Dietary restrictions: We eat a ketogenic (very low carb) diet and we can mange that at Surfrider with steamed shrimp, tuna bites and their excellent wedge salad
