    We had a wonderful dining experience at Vue on 30A! Our waiter, John, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and made sure our party of five was well taken care of. The menu offered a great variety, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The shrimp and scallops were perfectly prepared, and the 16oz Pork Tomahawk was cooked beautifully. Portions were more than adequate for the cost. To end the meal on a sweet note, we enjoyed the Chef’s crème brûlée, beignets, and white chocolate bread pudding—each dessert was absolutely decadent. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to the area!

    We liked Ovide so much on our first visit that, for the third time in our over 30 year marriage, we requested the same server (Liz!!) and the same wine on our return. The menu is in a state of transition and upgrade, so we had different entrees which were also as good as our previous. We highly recommend Ovide!
