Overall Experience (reflects the collaboration of both critics): This restaurant was a rare treat! It has a very festive and vibrant atmosphere and is busy from the moment they open their doors to closing. Their park lot stays full because the food is good! Our food arrived at our table piping hot; we mean both plates, even though the restaurant was packed full. We waited a little longer than usual for the food but to have it come steaming hot like it did, our concern for the wait time went out the window. As for the taste, it was awesome! Who wouldn’t love to put perfectly seasoned-piping hot seafood in their mouths? Their seafood was likely frozen before it was cooked but it didn’t taste that way. The shrimp were superb with the flavors busting in our mouths. Not only that, they give us more food than we’ve had in the all the restaurants we’ve visited. It seems their generous portions are common place at Sea Breeze because almost everyone who left, left with a doggy bag, including us. If you like fried, broiled, or grilled seafood, than Bay Breeze is the place to be. Oh, one more thing we neglected to mention, their prices are more reasonable than any seafood restaurant we’ve visited. Try these folks, you’ll love them!

Would we go back?  Dog-gone right we would!

Suggested Improvements: As for the food: None!!!!!!!!!! Wait staff could use a little improvement.
