Back Bay Bistro

Enjoy happy hour after a hard day of surfing and sit back watching people struggle to get their boats into the bay as you munch on a burger, sandwich, prime rib or gourmet fish dishes such as stuffed salmon. This restaurant serves some common dishes, such as the burger, that have been spiced up to give them a gourmet taste with the casual dining feel and then gourmet dishes, such as filet mignon, that have all the flavor you expect but are presented without any frills or silver platters. Hidden in the corner of an RV park, this restaurant may not seem high class, but it is. The view of the marina is stunning and the food is incredible--a perfect combination.
