Cafe Thirty-A

Cafe thirty-A has always been good but I think it’s gotten even better. This place is home to the best crab cake on 30A (it’s not even close)! Everything on the menu is delicious from the filet to the salmon to the drinks to the creme brulee. It is hard to have a bad experience here (if you don’t mind some slightly gruff waiters who’ve been there for decades) and it remains one of the top restaurants in all of 30A.

Delicious Food & Lovely Atmosphere - we had a great dinner here and enjoyed all that we had - Arugula Salad, She Crab Soup (best I've ever had), Seared Snapper, and Crab Stuffed Lobster W/ Truffle Mac. They had a $6 martini special at Happy Hour, and we were able to get a reservation same day. It looked to be a family friendly atmosphere, too, though we enjoyed our date night here! The service was excellent, and I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's worth the extra spend!

An absolutely exceptional dining experience. Cafe Thirty-A is consistently at the top of our list. The restaurant has a wonderful cozy ambience and the service is friendly, timely, and personal. Our server Gray even took the time to answer questions about local wildlife. Every dish is delicious. The Lobster Mac is incredible and has delightful bites of beautifully aged Parmesan throughout. The scallops were the best I've ever had, seasoned thoughtfully and cooked to perfection. The she crab soup is unbeatable. Finally, the chocolate cake is absolutely decadent. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Exceptional experience every time!

Cafe Thirty-A is our favorite restaurant in 30A, and eating there has become a family tradition for us. We’ve dined at this restaurant while on family vacation for over a decade, and we always have an amazing experience! We recently visited and had a great experience as always! Our server was very attentive, helpful with the menu, and was very mindful of my food allergies. Our food was cooked to perfection, and as a family of 8, our wait time for our food was minimal! It does get busy, so I recommend booking reservations ahead of time. I’ve tried many different entrees over the years, and every meal has been fantastic. I love their iceberg wedge salad, the Maine Lobster in Paradise, and their crab cake entrée just to name a few. I highly recommend Cafe Thirty-A, and look forward to visiting again soon!

We loved our dinner at Cafe Thirty-A. The ambiance is classic and beautiful. Our service was flawless. Our meals were delicious. We had the Maine Lobster Mac and Cheese and Tuna. Everything was done to perfection. We shared the bread pudding and key lime cheesecake. We would recommend Cafe Thirty-A for a delightful night out.

Couples (siblings) date night. Fantastic everything. And the best crab cakes I’ve ever had. Our server said - ours is not seafood flavored breadcrumbs. Trust me they’re amazing. . Def enjoyed all aspects. First time here (we frequent the 30A area). Would def come back for a date night.

It was a return visit to Cafe Thirty-A and again it was a pure delight! Our waiter was Chuck and he was terrific. We started with craft cocktails (which were amazing) and had the she crab soup to start. It was delicious. Wife had salmon with grilled lobster tail and I had the scallops. What a great meal. Highly recommend.

I rarely feel compelled to write reviews when I’m traveling, but this place was top notch. Excellent service from every staff member we interacted with, especially our server Theodore. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating to our large party. I especially recommend the snapper ceviche, and ricotta appetizers, and scallops with risotto as an entree. Though, the crab cake was one of the best I’ve ever had.The dining experience was a nice balance between formal offerings served in a relaxed setting. Would absolutely dine here again if I’m back in town.
