      I love South Padre Island. We go once once or twice a year. Our favorite restaurant is Pier 19. We have been to a couple of these on your list but cant wait to try some of the others in April 2021 when we head back there!! The best though is Sea Ranch, I fell in love with that place, even with it being a little pricey.

    Good morning friends. I have been to South Padre many times but now that I'm thinking about it I've never set foot in a restaurant there. These are lots of great choices. Lots of humor as well. Hope you guys are having a great weekend so far.

    grapevine café is also a really yummy place for breakfast, but it doesn’t have the view of Cafe on the Beach.

    Wanna wanna is the best place to go on the beach. Bathrooms, food and drinks, wash down shower to wash off the sand before you get back in the car.

    Captain Roy's has good Mexican and seafood. I have been going to Padre for 35 years, and it is one of the only places that has not declined in quality. I hate to say it, but avoid Blackbeard's. Expensive, long wait, and nowhere near as good as it was 20 years ago.

    Black Beards...for lunch or dinner. You want a ginormous breakfast taco...go to Manuel's or Isabel's Cafe in Port Isabel.
