Ambiance

I personally love Rita's for its laid-back and cozy atmosphere making it perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. The restaurant's decorated with a casual yet stylish “Beachy” decor, and the dining room has tons of windows that let in plenty of natural light during the day and provides views of the passing nightlife in the evening. The outdoor seating area is a great spot to enjoy a meal while taking in the ocean breeze and is a great dog-friendly dining space to grab a bite with your furry family member.

Menu Highlights

It’s hard to go wrong with the menu at Rita's because it’s full of enough delicious choices to accommodate pretty much anyone’s preferences. Some of my favorite dishes include shrimp and grits, crab cakes, and fish tacos. The restaurant also offers an excellent Seafood Platter and Blackened Tuna Nachos, which are perfect for sharing. During our visit, we enjoyed oysters, peel-n-eat shrimp, and a delicious burger (not pictured - we ate it before we remembered to take a pic!).

Service

The service at Rita's Seaside Grille is friendly and attentive. The staff’s knowledgeable about the menu and always happy to make recommendations based on your preferences. It’s also worth noting that Rita’s is a part of the Hall Management Group which also owns Hall’s Chophouse, Slightly North of Broad, and High Cotton so even though Rita’s has a more laid-back vibe, you can expect the same great level of service as their other properties.
