Best Live Music Restaurants in Southport

If you’re looking for a comforting yet elevated dining experience, The Hideaway Kitchen and Bar is worth a visit, especially for their fried rice and dumplings. The fried rice is a standout—perfectly cooked with a balance of smoky, savory flavors that hit just the right note. Each grain of rice is infused with rich seasoning, complemented by tender vegetables and a subtle hint of umami. The dish isn’t overly greasy, which often happens with fried rice, but instead feels light yet satisfying. The addition of protein—whether it’s shrimp, chicken, or pork—only elevates the flavor profile without overpowering the dish. It’s clear that attention to detail goes into every spoonful. The dumplings are equally impressive. With a delicate, yet sturdy, wrapper, they strike the perfect balance between chewy and tender. The filling inside is a delicious mix of finely seasoned meat (or vegetables, depending on your choice), and each bite bursts with flavor. The dipping sauce, a tangy blend with just the right amount of heat, brings the entire dish together. Whether steamed or fried, these dumplings are a must-try and pair wonderfully with the fried rice. Overall, The Hideaway Kitchen and Bar has mastered the art of creating simple yet flavorful dishes that keep you coming back for more. The fried rice and dumplings are a perfect example of how comfort food can be both familiar and exciting with a little creativity and care.

The food was never-ending and was great. “Top notch” the service was very attentive and the family friendly atmosphere was outstanding. We will definitely be dining here again.

What’s not to love about YOT Deck!! The drinks and food were served quickly, and everything was absolutely delicious! The view was stunning, reminding us just how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful part of the world. Our next catch-up is already locked in—can’t wait!

Great food, service and atmosphere. Will be back.

Our experience at Den Devine was fabulous. The Souvlaki Platter was delicious, and the Alice Cooper Cocktail was great. The entertainment on the evening was the band Sugar Game, and they were awesome.
