    The shrimp linguine was delicious, and had such a generous amount of large shrimp! Dish had great flavor, and the sauce was perfect. The rosemary feta fries were so creative and delicious - they were a hit! The truffle ketchup paired with it was perfect as well. Our waitress was so kind, and brought my friend a special free treat for her birthday. Love Beeside :)

    My girlfriend and I go there a lot. We usually split the Caesar salad, which is the best ever Caesar! Today we split the avocado toast. It was pretty bland for our taste. We usually think of avocado toast as having some sort of little kick, but this had none. Salt and pepper helped a little, then we asked for some aoli, which was chipotle mayo, which also helped. But we both decided that we wouldn’t order it again.

    The waitress was very knowledgeable of their menu and the ambience of sitting outside almost on the beach at night was so romantic. We will definitely go back and will tell our friends about the restaurant.

    Gluten-free pasta was delicious as well as chocolate mousse. Only complaint, steel seats or wood benches: no cushions. Back was a little soar after dinner. Otherwise great!
