This most recent August experience made up for the prior experience by a mile! The food was served hot, which is key for a restaurant. Our server, Angie, checked on us frequently and was very attentive and friendly. The manager on duty, Derrick, also checked on us frequently but also checked with other diners also to ensure their dining experience was going well. I also want to thank one of the other managers, Andre, who reached on to me after the prior experience, which shows you that Shunk Gulley cares about its customers and looks to improve. Overall, we had a great experience and look forward to our next visit.

The atmosphere is amazing--peaceful, calm, beautiful, and the perfect setting for a relaxing dinner. The service was great from start to finish. We started with the Thai chicken wraps, the Jon the 2nd Roll, and a special appetizer with shrimp and whipped goat cheese. Everything was delicious! For dinner, the coconut mahi was to die for, and the Parmesan linguine tasted homemade and was absolutely incredible. And whatever you do, don't skip dessert! We tried the key lime pie, chocolate lava cake, crème brûlée, and peanut butter pie, and every single one was delicious. Between the beautiful atmosphere, wonderful service, and incredible food, The Bay has quickly become one of our favorites. This was our second visit, but definitely won't be our last. We would recommend it every time!

The food is consistently delicious, the service is always friendly, and the laid back beach atmosphere makes it the perfect place to relax after a day on the coast. If you're stopping by for lunch, I can't recommend the crab cake po'boy enough. It's absolutely massive, packed with flavor, and more than worth ordering. The Bloody Mary oyster shooters are another must try if you're looking for something unique. We also love coming during happy hour, which is always a great value. One tip: get there early if you can. This place is incredibly popular, especially during beach season, and for good reason. It's always busy, but the lively atmosphere is part of what makes it such a fun place to visit. Whether you're a local or just in town for vacation, Hurricane's is one of those places that's easy to keep coming back to. We certainly do!

There were only a couple of other people in the restaurant, yet we still had to flag someone down just to get more salsa. When our food came out, it was practically dropped on the table and the server walked away. There was no checking to see if everything was okay, if we needed anything else, or even a simple follow-up. The prices were fair, which I will give them credit for. The food was okay--not bad, but nothing that really stood out or made me want to come back specifically for it. Overall, it was an average meal with disappointing service. If I lived in the area, I highly doubt this would be a place I'd return to.

The Fruit Danish was quite good but the Morning Bun was on a completely different level. It was crisp and tasty with a delicious orange flavor on the beautifully caramelized bottom. Truly a must try!

The star of the visit was the Morning Bun, absolutely delicious! We ordered two Morning Buns, two cappuccinos, two BEC (bacon, egg, and cheese) croissants, and a chocolate croissant to go. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the coffee. Our total came to about $75 for everything. I even tipped on top of the service fee they already added, out of habit! Overall, a wonderful experience with great coffee, tasty pastries, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely come back.
