Well we just arrived in town a couple of hours ago. Couldn't check into out place yet so we walked down to Sea Witch. Thought we had found the place we would return to a couple of times because everything was great, especially the outdoor areas to dine. The trouble was that we ordered a strawberry salad for our kids to split and we clearly asked for no blue cheese, because...kids. It came out with blue cheese crumbles but we did not see them until they walked away. We tried to get the kids to eat it anyway and one of them would but the other was having a breakdown because we just got into town and he was starving. I brought the issue to our server, Taylor and she corrected it promptly. Then we get our bill and they billed us for both of our salads. I brought it to her attention and she says "Yeah, because your kids ate both of the salads." We would never have had to order the second salad if she had rung the first one in correctly. It's restaurant 101. You screwed up our order and we shouldn't have to pay for your mistake. I still tipped 15% but it definitely would have been more and they would have gotten at least 2 return visits out of us. If you want us to change our review Sea Witch, reach out and fix our check. We visited today and our check is attached. Ridiculous mistake to make. EDIT: Following up on this. The owner was very prompt to reach out. I haven't talked back to them but am confident from the nature of their response that they will fix things. With how well run everything seemed to be around there I definitely felt like this slip-up was the exception and we will be going back later this week. Thanks Seawitch for turning our experience into a very positive one!

Stopped by for brunch because of the pictures of Bloody Mary's lol. The place is bigger than it looks, with indoor and outdoor seating merging together for a summery, open feeling. Decor was funny, cute, and verrrryy beachy, with places for live music in the evenings. The shirts for sale were very on brand, with cute quotes like "life's a witch and then you fly". We got the mimosas and bloody mary that was on special for brunch. Both were great, with limes and olives on the bloody. The grits were amazing, creamy and rich (we asked for cheese to put on it, and it made it even better). The omelette was huge, stuffed with spinach, bacon, cheddar cheese (they were out of feta) and flavor. The pancakes were warm, fluffy, covered in chocolate chips, and came with sides of butter and syrup. The biscuits and gravy were probably the best thing. The sausage gravy was scrumptious, warm homemade biscuits, and perfectly scrambled eggs with plenty of melty shredded cheese. Our server was lovely, well informed despite not usually working sundays, casual and easy to talk to, no frills, and very efficient and friendly. Would love to visit here again and try some of their non-brunch food as well.

I went here with a group on a Thursday evening. They have live music which was inside since it was raining outside. The music was a duo of guitar and hand drums and was far better than I could have hoped for. These guys were excellent. Definitely not your overpoweringly loud 'live music' that is all too common, so I was particularly pleased with that. The drinks were a little pricey but good. I got the mango-rita which was overpowered with the coconut rum. The food here is the real deal. We started with the catfish bites with a great spicy aoili and enjoyed every bite of them. I got the Megalodon burger (huge!) which was two full size burger patties, pulled pork, and burnt tips. I couldn't finish the whole thing and my friend didn't finish his either. My girlfriend loved the surf and turf burger while another friend enjoyed the black bean burger. The steamed seafood plate was also a hit. Finally GET THE SWEET POTATO FRIES!! I've never had any like this, they were sweet and seasoned with cinnamon which I found to be quite tasty. Great place and I'd definitely go back! (Plus the backs of the servers' shirts are funny)

I do not mind paying $100 or more for great food…unfortunately, this is not the place. 9:08 Monday…Ordered drinks and 10 minutes later it was clear the kid who took our order forgot. No big deal…. Ordered crab legs and waited 35 minutes. Again, not a huge deal…. Received them and it was clear nobody gave one damn about what was being delivered. They had 1/4 inch of old bay seasoning. Guessing the cook didn’t know how to prepare them and decided to cover it was seasoning…picture added to this comment. When we asked for the crackers for the shells, we were told they ALL were in the machine being washed…. Seriously, all of them?? Do you own like 4 pair?? You’re a restaurant at the beach…pick up afew extra. So we pushed through and brushed off what we could salvage and paid our bill, got a to go cup for the road, only to be told they were all outta ice…..out of ice?? You got my money this time, never again..

Fantastic first time experience. The wait was limited, even though the place was rather busy. You have the option to either wait to be seated or sit at the high tops or bar and scan a QR code for your menu options. If you self-serve this way, you then just go to the bar + place your order, and then they will bring the food out to you. We chose to be seated with a waiter and I apologize I do not recall his name but he was great, prompt, friendly and courteous. We ordered the crab cakes + Brussels sprouts w/bacon and the crab legs. All of our food was the right temp, excellent flavor, fresh and delicious. We will absolutely visit here again. The place has a cool, beachy vibe + live music which was a real treat. Thank you for a great first time experience! The rest of the menu looked too good to just eat here once, so we cannot wait to try out more!

We really enjoyed our time at the SeaWitch Cafe & Tiki Bar. We got a strawberry frozen margarita and a strawberry daiquiri. Our meals were the mahi tacos and crab cakes. We enjoyed our drinks. Our waitress was very personable, friendly, and helpful. The other patron really enjoyed her crab cakes, fries, and hush puppies. I though the mahi tacos weren't seasoned that well because they tasted bland the first few bites but after that they were decent. I think I just have high standards when it comes to fish tacos, because I've tried a lot of them. There is a vegetarian option on the menu and there was a wheelchair ramp at the side of the building. Overall, a nice place with good ambiance, close to the beach, and reasonable prices. Definitely recommend it.
