Rundown Cafe

Delicious delicious delicious! The waitress was so fast, nice, and patient with our group of 12! Something on the menu for everyone from a full bar to a kid friendly menu :) The artwork was cool and there was merch to buy. The only reason I gave the atmosphere 4 stars is because the dining room was echo-y and it made it a bit hard to chat. Otherwise, loved it, recommend it, get the red drum sandwich!

I got the surf and turf stir fry, which was excellent and I highly recommend. Great service from Andy. I gave a high rating to atmosphere mainly because they have very good noise control on the ceilings (sound absorption boards), which is rare at most restaurants. The propeller fans are also a nice addition.

Such a cute place and friendly staff! Enjoyed our lunch up on the upper deck, it was very nice. All food was good, especially recommended the loaded fries for the appetizer. Really enjoyed my sandwich, has the lunch special Harvest Grilled Cheese (without the bacon) and rice and beans. My table also enjoyed their BBQ burger and jerk chicken a lot too. It was all good!

Fun drinks and the food was good. We were a large party so had to wait a bit to be seated but the servers were nice. I had the Cobia BLT and a painkiller and both were yummy. My partner got the poke bowl, which I believe this place is well known for and he was very satisfied. A nice stop on the way to the beach.

Absolutely wonderful. I remember dining here roughly 10 years ago but the stars haven’t aligned for me to return until this evening. I ordered the Blackened Red Drum With Avocado Drizzled with Aioli, with side of green beans and French fries. Normally comes with grits but I asked to substitute which worked out great. This was a special and is not normally on the everyday menu. The servers were pleasant and attentive. It was a nice evening so I sat outside and had a really great view of the ocean. I walked away extremely satisfied. Highly recommend. For $21 in this day and age with inflation? That was a darn good meal. Well done Rundown, thank you for this food and memory.

This place is "money in the bank" We got three items for lunch. Obviously the Rundown Chowder. You get a lot for $6 but it doesn't last long! We got coconut shrimp. The shrimp was great....the dipping sauce was crazy good. We also got a Poke bowl. Absolutely outstanding flavor. This is more than a lunch. It's an adventure!

We got the nacho with the steak and there was hardly any cheese and it was missing guacamole which was clearly in the description. The taste was just okay with the nacho lacking cheese. Coconut shrimp was okay and the fish bite tasted like fried chicken coating from KFC. It was tasty. The blacken red drum fish sandwich was delicious. We also got the Painkillers drink and it was good. They allow dog on the outdoor seating on the deck.

I've followed the Rundown Cafe on FB for a while now and was determined to visit on a Sunday for one of their Special Sunday Brunch Bloody Marys. I was not disappointed. The BM was delicious and the Hurricane Salad with Grilled Yellow Fin Tuna was to die for! I'll be back next visit for sure! And you should add it to your list of eateries to visit while you're there!

This is our go-to spot when we arrive. It’s been three years since the changeover of ownership yet the food is always on point. The tacos are all delicious but the shrimp are my favorite. The calamari and fish bites always hit the spot, and their poke bowls are just right. Don’t forget to check their specials! We love the pond out front and whenever there is a wait to get in, we just go upstairs for a drink on the deck.
