Audra MonroeJune 20, 2016We had a great experience. We got here a little before 7 during spring break and we were seated and orders drinks and an appetizer really quick. Our waitress was really quick to refill our drinks.- Perry BJune 14, 2016On my week long trip to SPI, this was by far my favorite part. I can't say enough good about it! The prices are very good and they have a lot of variety to their menu.
- Stefanie SorocooMay 24, 2016My husband and I shared the shrimp scampi dinner special and my kids each had a plain hot dog. They were burnt out on seafood. The scampi was fan-freaking-tastic. The sauce had amazing flavor.
- Etherea ProseJuly 6, 2016This was the best dinner we had by far. The food was great, good prices, the vibe is super laid back and cool. The live music was awesome and our waiter Michael was wonderful.
WaggishJune 6, 20161st off let me tell you the Buffet looks delicious and for $26.00 a person it was totally worth it! The food tasted as good as it looked!- Clem TJune 28, 2016Great place. Love the food and people. The staff was great the drinks special. They made you feel at home.
- Clem TApril 11, 2016Big thanks to the Padre Rita Grill for serving such delicious food to the volunteers and performers of the Island Folk Festival tonight! I especially loved the beef fajitas.
- VickiJuly 26, 2016Delicious! Super bright, island feel. Very family friendly. Loved the ceviche, margarita, fish tacos, bisque, fillets, key lime pie...the owners were incredibly sweet and the live music was great.
- Darrin TebowJune 1, 2016Overall we enjoyed the experience. The service was great, the food was good, and the atmosphere (outside) was relaxing. We would definitely go again.
- Jules DepaulApril 21, 2016Not bad at all. We came here our first night on the island and were STARVING and the food didn't disappoint. Cool beachy atmosphere, the owner was playing live music.Service was great would recommend.
- JeroApril 4, 2016Had the Rita Cheesy Burger. Had great flavor. Amy came by and refilled my iced tea and was very friendly. Will, the bar tender, and Cathy the owner came and checked on us as well. Friendly crew
- keensJuly 12, 2016Wonderful meal. The fish was delicious and it was served on a fish dish. The bathroom was very clean and smelled wonderful!
- Daisy JaneMay 10, 2016I think everything was good, we went for happy hour and only tried appetizers. Our table was about $30 for one margarita, 3 beers and 2 appetizers. I felt that was a decent price. I will come back.
AirickuhMeuhJune 27, 2017You have to ask for Arnie, he's about half of the experience here. My boyfriend swears by the Diablo Shrimp, and I'm a fan of the veggie tacos. Plus, they know how to serve a drink.
- Joy maverickMarch 25, 2016Ordered 2 burgers, and shrimp bisque. Burgers were cooked well. The star of the night was the shrimp bisque. Delicious, nice rich smoky flavor would order that in a second. The service was great.
- ManeApril 25, 2016Great place and people. The owners, Mike and Kathy are down to earth people, and while Mike plays guitar and sings brings a nice flair to the atmosphere.
- Knight GMay 17, 2016Amy rocks as far as service goes. The padrerita nachos were really good, we got the half order which was enough to fill us up. The oysters were really small, but worth .60 each.
- TinaMarch 31, 2016Lunch to go! Ordered the clam chowder -delish, grilled chicken sandwich is amazing! Husband had the shrimp bisque and loved it! Going back tonight for .50 oysters at Happy Hour
Courtney HolubJune 16, 2023Fish and shrimp,Diablo shrimp,and the blooming onion were delicious!! The staff was friendly and the service was great! Large portions and fair prices.- Joanne ZidekiMay 2, 2016Our server (I can't remember his name) was very friendly and quick with all our needs. He checked on us probably 20 times.
- Fallon BennyJuly 20, 2016Our waiter was Travis and he was great. For being new, he did an awesome job.
PadreRitaGrillOctober 1, 2012The Chocolate Cake and the Chocolate Flan are "home-made" right here at the restaurant every other day! Some of the best on the island!

Chip trio with quesi guacamole and salsa us the bomb
Andrea MyersMarch 30, 2011Liz is sn awesome waitress!! Get a 'Rita and the jumbo shrimp steamer pot AMD split it with your Honey...- The trio...queso ...guac..salsa...us folks austin LOVE IT
Courtney LandowskiJanuary 1, 2014The food was very good, but that may have been due to the fact that it took over an hour to get our food after they waited over 15 minutes to take our order. They were not very busy either.
Rich H.October 10, 2010Shrimp bisque is good. Very large portion. Great Cobb Salad. Mixed drinks are small portion. Ask for a tall. The chips were horrible.
William PleasantJanuary 11, 2015Was one of four tables when visited and took almost an hour to get food...confused. I only ordered a burger.
Daniel HernandezJuly 5, 2011The food was great. Bad thing about it is that the service is horrible we asked the server for mayo about 5 times till we got it. Also they over charged on the ticket.
