This restaurant is associated with the Beach House hotel. It’s located in front of the pool and was accessible to us even though we weren’t staying at the hotel. We entered from the beach by entering a side door. The Tiki Hut is located next door but has a different menu. Service was quick and friendly. Food was just ok. Most of the food options are fried or very unhealthy but somewhat tasty.

Everything was exceptional here. We had so much peace and enjoyed our meal. We got the backend music from the surf bar next door. They had a live band. This restaurant is part of Hilton so you enter from the lobby of the hotel. We were only in this area for 24hrs but we had a great meal, good drinks and pleasant service. We will be back

First, in regards to the previous reviews: We were staying at the hotel & we were NEVER asked if we were staying at this hotel prior to ordering our drinks or prior to being seated for dinner. The Bartender & server were so incredibly kind, sweet, attentive & amazing people!!! The drinks & food was good. Everything about our experiences at the restaurant the entire weekend was fabulous! The Beach House Resort was a fantastic vacation in every way!

The food was amazing! The brisket burger was one of the best sandwiches we have ever had, and the fried green tomatoes were delicious. The bartender was wonderful, and she made great cocktails.

The Porch is a southern restaurant directly associated with The Beach House hotel. Only guests from The Beach House may dine here. Dining can be done inside or out on deck by the pool. The music from the Tiki Hut can be heard if seated outside. I ordered the beer sampler which is a sample of 4 craft beers from local breweries for $10. I also ordered the pork and pineapple pizza which was actually very delicious. The pork very much complemented the pineapple and was that melt-in-your-mouth quality. Despite The Porch being a good option to eat dinner/lunch for guests of the Beach House, I would recommend going elsewhere on the island. However, it is one of the few restaurants that is open later (10-11pm), so that can make it more attractive option for late diners.

My wife and I had dinner and breakfast at this fantastic restaurant. The food and drinks were simply amazing. We really enjoyed the fried tomato sliders, the garlic Parmesan wings, and margarita pizza. The young man from dinner and the lady from breakfast took great care of us. We would highly recommend this place.

Wow. Exceeded our expectations for a hotel bar restaurant. They had live music which was so nice considering I haven’t heard any since before COVID-19 shutdowns in March 2020. The service was kind and fast. We ordered the $9 chicken sliders as an appetizer, which were just the right amount of spicy. We also ordered the veggie burger which was crazy delicious. I am not a vegetarian nor a vegan and I would recommend to anyone. We also had the brisket and grilled cheese, which was delicious but it had some sort of sweet jam or sweet BBQ which it could do without. Overall the bill was extremely reasonable in price. It was so convenient considering our late check in on a Saturday night. No reservation needed and no wait.

Horrible service, sat there for a long time before anyone even came up to us when she did she was not friendly. Food was not good and small portions for what you pay. Chicken tenders kids meal had more food than the adult meals. Turkey club is like a kids size sandwich and was bland. We ordered just drinks from here a couple times on different days while at the pool and the bartenders were rude, acting like we were an inconvenience, no smile, no greeting, not friendly at all. RUDE seemed to be the theme here.

Cardina was very sweet and recommended a lot to do around the island. We enjoyed laying by the pool and listening to the live music next door. The Porch has a very calming ambience complimented with the delicious drinks. We will have to come back to try the food next time. Thank you!

We had dinner here due to closeness of our condo. We got seated quickly and server was great. The food was good but cold and overpriced. The chicken in bbq meal was dry.
