    Solid spot. Great grilled cheese options. I got the turkey and arugula. I loved the arugula. Crispy and warm.

    All American Grilled Cheese
    Kerwina S.

    Bomb grilled cheese, fast service, & chill vibes. What we ordered: All-American Cheese for $7 - cheesy, gooey perfection. There's a bunch of food trucks lined up in this area. There's free street parking but there's also paid parking behind the fudge place. We're out of state visitors but will def return when we're back in the area.

    Caprese with prosciutto and a pickles marg!

    Perfectly crispy and buttery bread with the freshest mozz and tomato! I could have had about 5 of them. Pro tip: add the prosciutto!

    I got the GF Little Figgy. It was not good. It had no flavor and seemed like it was missing an ingredient maybe. It was also pricey for what it is. It's located in a cute airstream on airstream row in the Seaside town square. Other flavors on the menu sounded like they would have been better than what I got.

    The Meltdown on 30A is always a great choice for lunch or dinner. I love the all American, which is a class grilled cheese. My husband always gets the Smokin Turkey which has turkey, bacon, cheese, avocado, and an Albuquerque sauce. They serve bottled drinks, fountain drinks, beer, wine, and kettle chips as well. Service is always super fast and friendly. All items are made to order so it will take 5-10 minutes for your food to come up depending on how long the line is. The only thing I wish they would offer that they don't is pickles. I love pickles with my grilled cheese!

    I was so excited to have found a gluten free grilled cheese place on my road trip, but was ultimately disappointed with the actuality. I wish they used better quality gluten free bread. The bread tasted like defrosted Udi's and I was hoping for something more unique and flavorful. I will say the inside sandwich flavor combos were creative. The strawberry jam and goat cheese tasted amazing together and they were accommodating with substituting the pork for turkey. I expected more from the staff. They were not very friendly and after taking our order did not give us a time estimate for our order being ready. The restaurant is a cute foodtruck style, but being outside by the beach there were a lot of flying bugs. When they put the order in the ready window I wish they would close the paperbag to avoid bugs flying inside to our food. Side note: parking was $7/hour as the weekend provided hard to find free street parking.

    This is the perfect yummy comfort spot! Cheese oozing out from warm toasty sandwiches. It perfect on a sunny but breezy day in February. We ordered the the Augusta with bacon, sloppy melt, strawberry goat forever and a roasted tomato soup. The sandwiches were thick and full of cheese. My husband loved his sloppy melt and we split the Augusta. The Augusta was perfect with the tomato soup. The soup was so delicious. It was so filling. Great flavor with a touch of a smoky taste. This is not something that you find from a food merchant! The strawberry goat was such a great sandwich! Tons of goat cheese and strawberry jam with prosciutto. We split one half and took the rest with us. There is a grilled cheese sandwich for different palates. It's not a complicated menu and there's a great variety. I can't wait to come back next month and eat here again!

    A favorite airstream restaurant on the grounds of Seaside. I enjoyed my favorite caprese sandwich which consisted of basil, tomato, mozzarella and balsamic reduction. It's all about the grilled sandwich here and so consistently delicious.

    I can make a pretty great grilled cheese sandwich on my own, so my bar is pretty high. The Meltdown managed to meet and even exceed it -- and that's saying something. My fiance and I stopped in Seaside on a Saturday afternoon to explore and grab a bite to eat. After seeing all of the adorable Airstream food trucks, we both chose to order from the Meltdown. I opted for the "French Onion is My Jam" while he ordered the "5-Cheese Bomb" and added bacon. We decided we'd each have half then switch, which ended up being a great idea. The French onion has french onion jam, swiss and gruyere, but be forewarned that in addition to caramelized onions, there are also some thin white onions (cooked) in there. The 5-cheese bomb, meanwhile, has american, cheddar, swiss, gruyere and pepper jack cheeses. I ate my half of the French onion first, then switched to the 5-cheese bomb. While I liked both, the bomb was, well, "the bomb." It was gooey with PLENTY of cheese and thick, perfectly cooked bacon that really took this sandwich to the next level. Both of us were quite happy with our meal. I live nowhere near Seaside but you can bet that when I come back, I'll be back in line at the Meltdown to try another one of their sandwiches. These guys know what they're doing.

    THE BEST GRILLED CHEESE. an absolute must if you're in town! worth the wait & the line goes fairly quick.

    Waiting for our French onion is my jam grilled cheeses!

    Just got in to town on Monday (my family has owned a house here for over 30 years) and the first thing I did was run to Meltdown and get my French Onion Grilled Cheese. I literally think about it all year in California and can't wait to get here and have one. As always it did not disappoint Ooie Gooey Amazingness ‍

    Fancy schmancy spot right on 30A, just east of Seaside. The menu was a great mix of southern,…read moreseafood, and some asian fusion items. Being a bit tired of seafood after a long trip, I opted for the pork chop. It was seared well, good flavor, good cut. No complaints about the chop. The collards and potatoes on the side were really just ok. The sourdough appetizer with olive oil and garlic was delicious. Service here was strange to me. They're definitely trying to be a "white tablecloth" establishment. We were seated near the kitchen and our water glasses got filled up almost too frequently... I know, that's me being picky. The most outstanding thing was the banana pudding cheesecake. I would like me some more of that.

    Ambiance was nice but service was not great for our group of six…read more We started by ordering drinks and four appetizers. Four of the five drinks arrived, then the appetizers came. Our server never checked on us so we couldn't inquire about the missing drink. We ate all of the appetizers with our menus still on the table because he didn't come back to take our dinner order until we had eaten all of the appetizers and had to flag down someone else to ask if we could place our entree order. Have never had that happen at any dining establishment let alone a higher end restaurant like Surfing Deer! It took a long time for the entrees to arrive and to get our drink order corrected. The original adult mocktail was given to one of the kids and it was unclear that it was her kids drink that was never brought to the table. Our truffle fries were cold, the pad Thai was chewy and oddly salty. Those things could have been overlooked but we just felt overall that we weren't really being cared for at the table so we skipped dessert. It was a very disappointing experience. Food wise: --Hushpuppies 3/5 just standard nothing special --Brussel sprouts 4/5 good but oily and small portion --clothes hanger bacon 4/5 for flavor and presentation. Rosemary torched at the table was odd bc it didn't flavor the bacon it just made smoke go everywhere --surfing deer chicken nugs 5/5 like an elevated chick fil a nugget with a delicious slaw --Seafood acadania: 5/5 delicious --Fish of the day: 4/5 small ish portion but good --Pesto pappardelle: 4/5 good but a bit chewy --Pad Thai: 2/5 what was that even? very chewy noodles with super salty sauce. Not even a relative of pad Thai --Kids petite filet mignon 4/5 super good but fries were cold and 22.00 for a tiny steak

The atmosphere is elegant and refined, offering a true fine dining experience, but it's still comfortable and welcoming. Many guests were dressed in nice shorts and resort attire, so there's no need to feel overly formal. The food was outstanding from start to finish. We highly recommend the crab soup and the crab cake--both were absolutely exceptional. For our entrees, the seared tuna and the seared scallops were perfectly prepared and among the best we've had. While the dessert menu is somewhat limited, both desserts we ordered were delicious and a wonderful way to end the meal. The real standout, though, was our server, Nancy. She struck the perfect balance between attentive service and giving us space to enjoy our evening. Her warm personality and genuine hospitality made the experience even more memorable while allowing our family to relax and enjoy a wonderful dinner together with our two teenage daughters. Cafe 30A is the kind of restaurant that turns a great meal into a memorable evening. We would absolutely return the next time we're in the Seagrove Beach area.
