Rigby Island and New Pointe pizza
Patricia B.

The restaurants in Deltaville were full at 8pm on a Friday night in early October which was unexpected, so our group of five friends drove to Mathews to get pizza. We called and ordered ahead, a Rigby Island pizza and a New Pointe pizza. When we arrived they were getting ready to close but the staff said we could sit on the porch to eat which was super nice of them. They served us drinks and dessert as if we had ordered for dine in. We were so happy to have such friendly and welcoming service since it was so late. Our waiter Michael was wonderful and we will certainly be back. That buttermilk parmesan dressing they have is worth the drive.

Great place to eat, fast service, nice casual atmosphere. We got the Big Island and Berkely 8 inch pizzas and the bang bang shrimp appetizer which I highly recommend.

Cute little restaurant in the middle of the cute town center of Mathews. Not a huge menu, which I love because normally it means the food is fresh. This was definitely the case for Southwinds! Family friendly atmosphere and very laid back. While we weren't in the mood for pizzas, the menu changed our minds. The Caribbean Jerk Chicken pizza hit the spot! Great service and overall experience!

Crab cake sandwich
Angie L.

*3.5/5 Let me preface: my crab cake sandwich was delicious. Filling. Scrumptious. Insert all other positive adjectives. Satisfying to the point that I'd give Southwind Pizza a strong 4 stars if not for the subpar service. I get it -- I've worked in the service industry before, it's hard to be smiley and cheery all the time. Standoffish service? It happens. But it's also hard to ignore the fact that we were a group of POC in a town that proudly flew Confederate battle flags on their streets. I'm not trying to assert anything or the other, but yeah, it was a thought in my mind. Not factoring this into the score, since I'm not sure how much control Southwind has over this, but the water had the weirdest aftertaste.

blueberry lemon cake after the ride home, delicious
Sandy C.

we were in the area and needed a lunch break. gave the Southwind Cafe a try. we had our little pupper with us and they have outdoor seating in the shade. Morgan quickly came out to greet us and take our order. our dog got a bowl of water. we decided to try the pizzas. we did the big island and the tangier island. they were delicious. they are cut into 4 slices but we only could finish 3 each. as long as we were taking home the other slices we had to add some cake for later. so we took home a slice of lemon blueberry and a slice of carrot cake. they were amazing. its good to know I have a go to place for food when I am in the area. you have to stop in here. friendly service, small town kindness and great food.

A ton of draft beers !!
Lord Big Of Tasty S.

Lord of big tasty had a hankering for some pie and suds. We were offered fresh home made cinnamon buns from the chief! Beer was cold and refreshing . What a surprise to have such great fresh ingredients! The pizza pie was amazing. The crust was perfectly cooked .. will be back

$20 for this!!!

We had such a fun night here celebrating dad's 30th birthday! Our server was literally the best…read moreI've ever had (but I forget her name) and the crab cakes were out of this world. She brought us a collection of their house made sauces for us to try without prompting, and we loved all of them! Our 3yo enjoyed watching the boats come and go, and our waitress had his meal come out faster so he wasn't hangry. It was such a joy to come here!

I worked in restaurants for several years and so I'm patient with most other establishments. But…read morethe service here was horrid. The server took our order, then took 33 minutes to bring our first round of drinks. Once they came she was pretty good on refills but after we'd waited for food for an hour she appeared to say that our food had been dropped in the back and so they had to redo it. this was after an hour ten minutes waiting. Another person came out to apologize and ask if there was anything they could do to help make the experience better. I had my four year old son with me who by this point was quite hungry. I asked for bread or anything fast. he said sure but nothing came. When the food did come it was bad. The cheese wasn't event melted and the burger was clearly undercooked. This restaurant has the advantage of geography; hatchery really the only other option. In any other competitive market they'd be out of business in a week. Steer clear and go to deltaville raw bar. Way better value and service.

My husband and I stopped for a late lunch, and were happy to find an updated menu of diner…read morefavorites with some creative additions. We shared a dinner portion of oysters plus a Chesapeake burger, both of which were perfectly prepared. The oysters were huge and succulent with a very light breading. They were accompanied by fries and Cole slaw, with cocktail and tartar sauce on the side. The burger was cooked medium rare as I requested, and was especially tasty since it was topped with lump crab meat, bacon, lettuce, and tomato. I got it with sweet potato fries, which were dusted with a touch of cinnamon and were a perfect side kick for the burger. We ended up taking home about half of each meal because we wanted to leave room for ice cream It just seems wrong to leave a well-preserved early 20th century diner with a soda fountain and counter seating without having some sort of ice cream! We were pretty full, so we shared a hot fudge sundae, which was definitely big enough for us both. It had vanilla ice cream, a generous portion of hot fudge, whipped cream, nuts, and two cherries (since we were sharing). We had a choice of wet nuts or peanuts, and I chose peanuts, as the salty flavor is a nice complement to the sweetness of the rest. Overall, we enjoyed this visit and hope to come back. I'd like to try the Caprese Burger and maybe have more oysters. They offer gluten free buns as an option, which is a helpful touch as well. Whether you live in Matthews or are just traveling through, it's worth a stop.

This seems to be the staple constant casual dining establishment in Mathews. Cute diner type place…read morewith a side window to order ice cream from the sidewalk and daily specials.

Also, we booked the reservation for 7:30 PM and, even though they closed at 8 PM, they still graciously accepted my reservation and provided us with the most outstanding service. I ordered the low country skillet, which was like a seafood boil with sausage on top of cheesy grits with a side of green beans. It was delicious and hearty. I recommend ordering this dish, especially since our server deemed it as one of the restaurants signature dishes. I also had a glass of Malbec red wine, pair of quite nicely with my meal. One of the other guests ordered the corn dip, which had a side of pita chips to dip into. The corn dip was slightly thick and sweet, with a few slices of avocado sitting on top. Also delicious. Highly recommend this place if you are craving a New American cuisine with a southern twist.

Lots of elderly women in Mathews. Guys must be out fishing or hunting or moved on. She liked her Gazpacho and N'awlins salad. My martini was under $12 a pop which is nice break from the city. I would have liked more crust on my scallops and the soba accompaniment was over cooked and I couldn't eat much of it. A gluey mush. Overall was OK and would return but order something else.

YROC is such a great find in Gloucester. The marina setting is beautiful, with gorgeous water…read moreviews, and the restaurant itself is large with plenty of seating both inside and out. We sat outside, which was perfect. We started with the tuna bites, and they were excellent. I usually don't like anything blackened, so I wasn't expecting these to be my favorite, but they were amazing. The tuna was perfectly cooked, and the peppery blackened seasoning was just right without overpowering it. We also had a dozen raw oysters. Salty, fresh and wonderful -- exactly what you want this time of year. It's oyster season! Then came the crab fries. So good. A huge pile of fries loaded with crab and cheese. Really, how can you go wrong with that combination? And they definitely didn't skimp on the crab. For my meal, I had the Cobb salad with crab and oysters. It was HUGE. I easily could have shared it with my husband, especially after all of our appetizers. YROC is worth a visit for the setting alone, but the food was surprisingly good and ended up being the real highlight. Beautiful marina, great outdoor seating, fresh seafood and generous portions. We'll definitely be back.

No restrooms. We couldn't even hear ourselves talk. The wait staff was amazing, but you could tell they were stressed beyond max. They had to bring our food up a very narrow staircase and one of our trays filled with 5-6 dinners was dropped. My scallops were raw. Together we numbered 18 people. My husband and I paid $300+ just for us. It was hot and miserable. I wrote the very next day expecting a rely from the management or owner. Not once was I contacted. If you're going to expand without thought of your customers experience, that's unbelievable and disrespectful. It'll be a good while before we even consider coming back.
