Great food, great views, great service....!
We had lunch in the bar area which was very nicely decorated and beachy. They have a good kids menu and tons of great salads and sandwiches.
Dessert was great too / tons of ice cream, cakes and sorbets. -

So disappointing that we walked one mile here and found out that you need to be a resident of the hotel to eat at the restaurant.
This rating is ONLY because being a resident was not posted. I am not rating the food. Please make sure you read and know that you MUST be a hotel guest to eat at this restaurant.
Tiki bar is open to the public. -

I so badly wanted to give this restaurant a 5. The ambience - sitting outside on the porch watching the sunset - is a five. The service, friendliness and speed, a six. Food? A three. The food was really underwhelming. The menu selection was ok. I ended up getting the seafood pasta and the muscles were so bad I only ate two. The rest of the pasta was average. Although my wife's scallops were pretty good. Hopefully they get the food figured out and this place will be perfect.

5 Stars because of the spectacular sunset
4.5 Stars on the dinner
The Hand Breaded Coconut Shrimp were just delightful.
The Crispy Avocado Bites by far were a hit, just mouth watering.
Same burger as on the beach but there wasn't the $2.00 up charge for fries.
The petite filet was cooked to perfection and very tasty. Had a choice of steak sauces to add on the side, very nice. The steak did not need it but I did use a little Bearnaise and was excellent. -

Ridley's Porch is just what I needed on a hot humid day before relaxing on the beach. The air conditioned lovely venue is steps away from the sand. Best dish: Cuban sandwich.
