Took my daughter there for her birthday lunch (her choice) and as usual, we weren't disappointed. We used to that restaurant before they relocated and the new place is really nice inside. The outdoor seating is right by the marina. The staff & food were great as usual.

Crab cake sandwich was fantastic! Husband got the Mahi fish and chips and it was also phenomenal. Thick fish with a great beer batter. Wonderful view of the sailboats and marina and breezy outside dining available. They also had live music setting up outside on Saturday as we were leaving.

A delicious family meal out. Arrived on a yachting race day so parking was valet only (complimentary, tips of course appreciated) as a result of the lot being shared with the marina. Absolutely no problem with that but mentioned as some folks are nervous about valet parking so might be worth a check if you fall into that camp. Also seemed like you could sit by the pool (use the pool?) outside although on a warm August evening we opted for the air conditioning. There’s no WiFi but equally it’s the type of place to enjoy the atmosphere, views of the marking and really delicious food. My wife thought the crab cake was spectacular and the calamari equally so. I had a topped cheeseburger which was although lovely, especially with tater tots although no problems with the fries either. Kids gobbled up their food (calamari and a hamburger respectively) and the service was really good throughout: friendly and attentive. Being really picky, the only downside on service was the table clearer who kept appearing and seeming to want to remove each piece of crockery separately at every opportunity and came over to ask (even asking about just one plate that still had some food on it!). I admire the enthusiasm, but it seemed just a little overbearing, as if there was some sort of tableware shortage and the poor kitchen assistant had been sent to recover every item possible as soon as possible! That didn’t take away from the overall experience of this delightful spot, however, that served really lovely food in a great atmosphere (I enjoyed the spacious feel as well - a nice wide aisle rather than cramming the tables in). I can’t comment on the crab cakes personally, but based on my wife’s comments, if that sort of thing is to your taste, then Surf Rider is not to be missed!

5 out of 5. Probably the best seafood I have had. Seriously. They take a lot of pride in their food. From the sauces to the freshness of the food it was all good. The Crab Cake is AMAZING!! Atmosphere was fun with a beautiful view. Highly recommend.

Over all for a quick search on seafood I choose to try Surf Rider Bay Point Restaurant. For a fly of the moment walk in and order to go 2 meals with sides of say it worth a visit the inside is open and friendly based environment. The outside which is limited to seating has a very nice outdoor sitting nice place just to eat and talk with family or friends even your date would love it with its just calming surroundings and views. The food was really prepared well in taste and presentation was pretty gd made it much more appetizing. Over all this place is unique in its own way. Thumbs up on the server very polite professional and courteous. For my 1st visit will keep it in mind on my future visits I really like the environment it has.

Saturday was my 1st visit to this location's Surf Rider and it's my new favorite! I literally had a PERFECT DINING EXPERIENCE! From seating, service, food quality, food taste, and my "without asking" TO GO tea refill!!! I love a WEDGE SALAD and this one was crispy fresh with some of the smoothest blue cheese I've had lately, The award winning SHE CRAB SOUP was on-point with lumps of crab. The BROILED SEAFOOD PLATTER with perfectly prepared scallops, Old Bay crab cake, flounder & shrimp (DELICIOUS!!!) and my classic favorite, the STEAMED SHRIMP & LUMP CRAB sprinkled in Old Bay seasoning with warm melted butter & some of the best cocktail sauce was AWESOME!!! I should NOT have resisted the HOMEMADE COCONUT CUSTARD PIE because I regretted not getting it TO-GO when I was watching TV later that night during the thunderstorm... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! Patio seating & beautiful marina view!
